Happy 45 years of John Boorman's erotic and exquisite Excalibur, which restages Arthurian legend in all its shimmering, clattering, sordid glory.
For @inverse.com, I wrote about the film as Boorman's aptly rebirth-centric career comeback. Enjoy!

So cool to see!
As All the President’s Men turns 50, Rory Doherty reflects on the masterful direction, atmospheric impact and enduring resonance of Alan J. Pakula’s landmark political thriller. https://boxd.it/34S
To mark the 50th anniversary of the faultless Watergate thriller All the President's Men, I dug deep into the film's incredible tension and texture – the corduroy suits, the non-denials, the piles of paper, the oceans of shadows – for

PEAKY BLINDERS: THE IMMORTAL MAN: Not good. A rehash of Tommy Shelby's late-stage battles with grief and mortality that rushes through a great premise without justifying getting the band back together after a solid end to the series.

God damnit
I spoke to Wagner Moura on his immense performance in The Secret Agent, the best in his Oscar field. He spoke of his love for director Kleber Mendonça Filho, anger, fatherhood, Carnival, and Brazil then and now. A true delight.

Lastly, it was so difficult trying to figure out Ghost in the Machine, a doc about AI that worthily traces the history of eugenics in Silicon Valley and artificial intelligence spheres, but makes too many baffling narrative and formal choices to view as coherent

Glasgow-centric documentary Everybody to Kenmure Street is a really compelling and emotional watch: a document of collective action against state violence, and how each side was a unique expression of the city's long, complex history. My first for In Review Online

I'm assuming the Wizard of Oz sequels take on a very Dune-type of nuts, but I'm also learning they are more gay
OBAA, The Secret Agent, Black Bag, Cloud in my top 10 eaaaasily
Love this
Does anyone have any favourite films/books/music about the nice and specific theme of "returning"? For the purposes of getting cool examples, let's say I am acquainted with "Twin Peaks" and "The Odyssey"
Alex Proyas said in a Q+A for Dark City at Prince Charles a couple months ago he's been using AI for his new film. I guess if you have tons of hangups about an industry then it's easier to project life-saving benevolence on something stealing from thousands of artists, the people you care about (?)

I ranked 20 of the most significant FRANKENSTEIN movies from the near-100 years of Frankenstein feature films for @vulture.com

current AV Club is great. if you think it’s still stuck in its Spanfeller-mandated wasteland era you should give it another shot.
I'm not crazy about Guillermo Del Toro's film, but I thought Jacob Elordi's performance was significant for an actor who's gotten comfortable playing similar shades of insidious hot men.
For @teenvogue.com, I wrote about the exorcism of Nate Jacobs in FRANKENSTEIN

Ian Somerhalder is giving one of the worst performances I've ever seen. But it feels so right here
IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT is making its way to screens stateside (and just played LFF in the the UK), and I reviewed the film for @pastemagazine.bsky.social. A wry and moving film from Jafar Panahi, perhaps more about how life rolls on than actual revenge

The cuts and coverage on an average episode are so frenetic and severe, gotta hit that 43 minute runtime OR ELSE
Hundreds of episodes of this, working everybody to the bone up in Canada, drama and intrigue every fifteen minutes, the most furrowed, dyed brows I've ever seen. Bad TV used to mean something
I've been irregularly watching The Vampire Diaries with Gabby as it's basically her favourite show. The CW was and is such a marvel
