BOTD 2/27/1930 Oscar winner & Mrs. Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward. Re-upping my post on Woodward's 4 Oscar nominations. She & Newman were also activists, philanthropists, & used their status to fight for social justice. #filmsky 🎥📽🎞🎬

My ★★★★ review of South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut boxd.it/8Y5GVH When Satan Met Suddam: A Love Story Matt Stone & Trey Parker showcase their "theater kid" roots with this tune-filled, irreverent & hilariously profane feature. I've been singing about uncle f*ckers all morning! #filmsky 📽🎥🎞🎬

My ★★★★★ review of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? boxd.it/8Y1l2N Ultimate cage fight: four combatants enter, none remain unscathed. In night of debauchery, tales are told, battles fought, games played & hypocrisies exposed. Unforgettable tour-de-force performances, wickedly funny. #filmsky 📽🎥🎞🎬

#NowReading THE PALEONTOLOGIST by Luke Dumas. Been reading some serious topics lately, so taking break with this tale of strange goings-on in a dilapidated museum. What happened to the last paleontologist? And can the new one escape to same fate? #booksky 💙📚

My ★★★ review of Trash boxd.it/8XV11N Explicit, yet surprisingly funny, foray into tawdry world of sex, drugs & the art of the hustle. Not for everyone! Low budget, amateurish & largely improvised, surprising poignancy can be found in codependent central relationship. #filmsky 📽🎥🎬🎞

#NowWatching WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? (1966). Director: Mike Nichols. Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton. One of my top 3 all-timers, absolutely brutal & brilliantly acted night of psychological warfare. Taylor's Best Actress Oscar performance is volcanic. All 4 leads nominated. #filmsky 📽🎥🎬🎞

#NowWatching TRASH (1970). Director: Paul Morrissey. Joe Dallesandro, Holly Woodlawn. Heroin & hijinks in 70s grungy, underground cult favorite. Bad taste classic produced by Andy Warhol starring his frequent (& frequently naked) muse Joe Dallesandro. #filmsky 📽🎥🎬🎞

#JustFinished 📖 INDECENT ADVANCES: A HIDDEN HISTORY OF TRUE CRIME & PREJUDICE BEFORE STONEWALL by James Polchin. Harrowing, if oftentimes repetitive, accounting of media & society defining homosexuality as deviant; painting victims of horrid crime as deserving of murder. Maddening. 📚💙 #booksky

My ★★★★½ review of Audition boxd.it/8XuRmJ Deeper! Deeper! Japanese masterpiece highlighting the trials & tribulations of modern dating. 1st Time Viewers: The less you know, the more impactful the resolution. Disturbing, memorable, & poignant. #filmsky #horrorsky 📽🎥🎬🎞

My ★★★ review of Breathe boxd.it/8XqzMh Remarkable true-life inspiration makes a lovely & crowd-pleasing movie experience. Garfield & Foy are incredibly appealing, but glossy, superficial screenplay plays like sophisticated TV movie. But kudos to real life couple! #filmsky 📽🎥🎬🎞

#NowWatching BREATHE (2017). Director: Andy Serkis. Andrew Garfield, Claire Foy. Directed by Gollum (😜Serkis), inspiring true-life tale of overcoming odds & surviving polio to help others. And Garfield & Foy are pretty! We're getting rid of vaccines, so polio might return! Stunning. #filmsky 📽🎥🎬🎞

My ★★★½ review of Sea of Love boxd.it/8WYPvv A murderer who makes naked guys hump their mattresses before shooting them in the head? It takes all kinds! Erotic thrillers used to be a go-to genre. I miss it. Cop Al Pacino & fiery suspect Ellen Barkin connect. Is it love or murder? #filmsky 📽🎥🎬🎞

My ★★★ review of Jericho boxd.it/8WZaTD Paul Robeson busts all stereotypes in fully-formed character, heroic & flawed. Historically remarkable! But bizarre narrative: part musical, WWI saga, fugitive tale, revenge trip, & African adventure. All in 75 min. #filmsky 📽🎥🎬🎞 Criterion Collection 372

Help! I'm concerned Heidi is too attached to her stuffed hedgehog. Here she is canoodling with it face to face. Note the shock and shame when her illicit secret is uncovered! #dogsky 🐕

My ★★★★ review of Marty boxd.it/8WZzoP Heartfelt 📺 play. Less romantic than longer feature film version, but hilarious portrait of Italian American family. Rod Steiger 👍. Fun to see Livia Soprano (Nancy Marchand) & Mrs. Voorhees (Betsy Palmer) in early roles. #filmsky 📽🎥🎬 Criterion Collection 495

With inspired Oscar nominations for THE SUBSTANCE & Demi Moore, the Academy makes solid headway into modern times. But it does make me lament these recent horror queens who scored with critics & also deserved nods. Toni Collette: HEREDITARY (2018) Lupita Nyong'o: US (2019) #filmsky 📽🎥🎬 #horrorsky
