Coachella is trying to wipe all of the footage of The Strokes protest set so I’m gonna post it here. The last images on the screen made me cry.

Alison Elliot in Almereyda's THE ETERNAL

Since we're talking mummies, may I recommend Michael Almereyda's derided/dismissed/all-but-forgotten THE ETERNAL (1988) which not only introduced me to Cat Power & Joe Dolan, but features Chris Walken doing an Irish brogue (kind of), and sports one of the great reveals of a monster/child-in-peril?

Reading this absolute dogshit essay as part of research for this project I'm working on and relieved it's not one of mine for a change.

They figured out a way to make me watch fencing. It's lightsabers.

Chris Pratt is TEMU Chris Pratt.

For those who missed it: this was the moment The Strokes ensured they’ll never be invited back to Coachella again! I'm so proud of them

The only thing wisdom denotes is that you have survived long enough to discern the pattern of repetition in our behavior.

Music to write to, this debut from TINDERSTICKS.

TRACKDOWN (1976) which answers the question of what HARDCORE would be like if instead of George C. Scott it was Temu Robert Mitchum playing a cattle rancher armed with a lasso and a pistola.

I myself have not. I was quoting Monty Python just last week to a group of people who didn't deserve it.

Oh - I thought you said "since" sixth grade. As you were.

Can confirm.

“Here no one else can gain entry, since this entrance was assigned only to you, duck. I’m going now to close it."

Do you have an online storefront? Asking for a potential shopper in Denver.

I've read this Kafka parable. It haunts me.

That thing in which Peter Watkin's mockumentary PUNISHMENT PARK is now a documentary.

A rewatch of 2025's WOLF MAN confirms it's a truly special and beautiful film. It provides a steady string of scares and ick (Wannell is an expert in that) while understanding what powered the original film: Larry Talbot's sadness and shame. This movie is always on the edge of emotional implosion.
