HOT ENOUGH FOR JUNE was fun for a lot of it, though it really fizzled out the last quarter of the film. But look at it! Look at those fun colors. (Look at Sylva Koscina!)

No theme again for #LastFourWatched / #LetterboxdFriday, other than whatever looked good (and streamable) (and free!) that night. 😅

-RIFIFFI! -Basta. Too late buddy. -JOURNEY TO ITALY! -All right you asked for it. -Ow! DIVORCE ITALIAN STYmmmph… Ow!

I too need to narrow this: Here’s my Five Favorite Black-and-White Films That I Haven’t Seen (Yet) On Others’ Lists (phew!) WHY BE GOOD? HOLIDAY HERE COMES MR JORDAN BIG DEAL ON MADONNA STREET IL SORPASSO

Incredible work by Google’s AI. I tried to learn more about @thecurrent.org Morning Show team of Jill and Nil and this is its amazing answer. Helpfully placed right at the top too.

If you inherited a movie theater, what’s your first double feature? (@baytato.bsky.social what do you think)

Using the discourse to re:up my second favourite semi-colon in All Literature. It’s from Scott Fitzgerald’s novella May Day. The first semi-colon in the paragraph is perfectly good, but the second – “She was a little tired; she wanted to get married” – is utterly gorgeous, and exemplary.

My #LastFourWatched. I don’t mind being at the “gotta try something by that famous director” stage. 😅 #LetterBoxdFriday

Big thanks to @rickburin.bsky.social & @theguardian.com for this, because it caused me to search WAGON MASTER out. I found it on Tubi & watched it last night. Gave a feeling like almost no other I’ve had while watching a motion picture. Easily deserving of its reputation. “Be gentle” is right.

Almost forgot! Happy Joe Pendleton Death Day to those who celebrate.

Our Purple Sand Cherry is looking pretty nice right now #FlowerReport #SaintPaulMN
