Reactions to Corridor of Mirrors (1948), which I watched at the end of last week.

I wonder if this film could be read as about the tension between… I don’t know, Romanticism and formalism, neo-classicism. An ex-painter in an empty mansion, desperate to recapture the past (and a mythical love from another age).

And lots of mirrors, bodies, malingering, beautiful spaces with hidden layers.

Been at this game long enough I might start sharing older reviews via . First, the first film I reviewed at the Cameo after moving back to : , based on @IrvineWelsh’s novel, directed by Jon S. Baird. 10 years later I still think this is ’s best work on . takeonecinema.net/2013/filth-r

Anyone who entertains the idea of "mcu humor", "marvel writing" (jokes, quips, sarcasm, comedy, etc) as a slur or critique/analysis is media illiterate. mcu films didn't invent any of that and are a damn sight tame and serious compared to what's in marvel's comic books.
