Finally breaking out my BFI Blu-ray of the 1981 British ska showcase Dance Craze, but here it is for those w/o a copy youtu.be/CVexewVb2B4?...

Yeah it’s 2025 not 1995 but this still got the blood pumping youtu.be/NC42DqhQC6U?...

About halfway through Fassbinder’s Berlin Alexanderplatz. Sometimes, dudes don’t rock.

Saw this on my first day being bussed from Haneda to my hotel in Shinjuku. My trip was all uphill (complimentary) from there.

I think I’ll watch some Kiarostami, Panahi, and/or Makhmalbaf tomorrow.

Just came out of 28 Years Later to an even more apocalyptic real world

This is one of the best of these ever, purely based on choices. Greatly captures how informed his taste is by depths of wisdom and soft-spokenness. Wish this would have come out before I met him briefly last fall at a screening of Annihilation of Fish. And nobody else picks Ermanno Olmi!

the thing about cinephiles is we've seen images of Iran, of Tehran (and I'm not talking about ARGO), and we know it's a breathtaking place with beautiful people and they haven't done shit to you or me.

2 bathroom-related ones: Used a urinal next to the Sklar brothers Ran into Stewart Copeland in the waiting area outside the men’s room at Sundance

My mind now drifts to the Simpsons episode where Springfield blames all its problems on immigrants and decides to fix it with Proposition 24, which deports them. They have buyer's remorse when they realize it hurts immigrants they personally know.

Man, we’re losing all the Great Catchy Weirdos.

40 of the coolest seconds ever (the end of “Stand!”)

Sly & The Family Stone - Family Affair (Official Audio)

The Rapture Fall Guy (Fukasaku) Spring(s) in a Small Town (both 1948 and 2002 versions) A Yuri Norstein Eclipse set

Looking forward to maybe seeing this in a theater (or at least an HD release down the line). During my recent trip to Tokyo, one of the things I looked for was a Blue Hearts boxed set that included “Linda Linda.”

Still putting out great stuff youtu.be/Nndpg90P2O8?...

Let the Chowaissance begin

Lynne Sachs has posted a decade's worth of the Experimental Lecture Series she curated at NYU. Heavy hitters! Schneemann, Mekas, Gehr, Dorsky, Friedrich, Serra, etc. www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

The man definitely did his own stunts here (ate his own snacks).

This has taken up more of my time than I expected

You said it, SONGS FROM THE SECOND FLOOR.

Going to mission the impossible mission…

Listening to Jonathan Romney on @nicolasrapold.bsky.social’s The Last Thing I Saw mention an adaptation of EXIT 8 at Cannes led me down a rabbit hole…
