Read my ★★★★★ review of John Cassavetes' 1976 "The Killing of a Chinese Bookie," in which I once again approach the work of this social-realist pioneer but, instead of all my other attempts, this time find something brilliant and mesmerizing. Wow, this movie! boxd.it/41tZsJ

It's bitterly cold out there... bundle up. "Snowman," 1945, Phillip Evergood (1901-1973). Evergood became one of the leading modernists of the 20th Century, with styles combining abstraction and realism, while retaining an almost childlike sweetness that he seemed to never outgrow. Private collection.
