Buster Keaton is one impressive actor #sherlockjr #sightandsound #bfi #sightandsoundtop100films #busterkeaton

Guess the film that was inspired by this one #bfisightandsound #sightandsound #lajetee

First darkly funny, and then just dark, Bent Hamer's deadpan THE MIDDLE MAN (2021), a small-town story of misery euphemised and murder repressed, is now on digital via #SovereignFilmDistribution. Full review for #SightAndSound Recommended. https://www.bfi.org.uk/sight-and-sound/reviews/middle-man-this-morbid-mordant-comedy-plumbs-psychosis-trump-era

"these demons deconstruct and reconstruct their victims much as Kassie does her dolls, or Cronin the franchise’s formulae": with EVIL DEAD R|ISE, Lee Cronin's resurrects & relocates the mother of all cabin-in-the-woods movies.

Brilliant performances by Bibi Andersson and Liv Ullman in Persona by #IngmarBergman #bfisightandsound #sightandsound #bfi

"What are accidents really?": in Bent Hamer's darkly deadpan THE MIDDLE MAN (2021), "very real brokenness and misery are refashioned as individual psychosis and collective fiction, and responsibility as something to be escaped."

Happy #LetterboxdFriday !

This week I've checked out the Michelle Yeoh collection on #CriterionChannel , crossed off one of the last remaining films from my 2022 watch list, started watching Oscar films from 1942, and finally saw one of my more anticipated unseen films from the #SightAndSound list.

#LastFourWatched

Sight & Sound, March 2023
#periodicals #cinema #SightandSound & Sound

All hail the directors who voted for their own movie(s) in the Sight and Sound poll! Ekwa Msangi, Jalal Toufic, James Benning, Lucía Seles, Marian Evans, Michael Snow, Nikita Lavretski, Nina Danino, and Sumitra Peries: I admire your belief in yourselves.

(Why yes, I did pull down all the Sight and Sound ballots, I did stuff them into a database, and I did run #Datasette on it.) #Movies #Cinema #Film #SightAndSound

Nothing like a coward talking about me behind my back on birdsite over my #SightAndSound ballot. Just because we disagree on films doesn't mean you have to shit all over someone. These lists are subjective but worst of all, they and their followers brought #Antisemitism into the conversation. This is why it is becoming increasingly hard and next to impossible in being both #Jewish and #Transgender in Trans spaces. LGBTQ Jews are loud about antisemitism for a reason! #Mazeldon #film #movies

My #SightAndSound ballot is here.
