Tears of the Black Tiger (2000) A feast of flamboyance from Thailand about the doomed love affair between an outlaw cowboy and an upper crust woman Written and directed by Wasit Sasanatieng - BOTD in 1963

Saw 28 YEARS LATER. Speaking as someone who's not the biggest fan of Danny Boyle, I was startled at how poetic and contemplative the film is. Likely the closest we'll ever get to a Terence Malick-directed zombie flick. Not that the film's stingy with the gore, violence and zombie penises, mind you.

Pete Candoli’s power and bandstand flamboyance earned him the title of "Superman with a horn" He began to appear on stage in a Superman costume, leaping out from the wings to electrifying effect, or sliding down a wire from a high balcony, arriving with split-second timing to play his high notes.

ZaSu Pitts has terrible news for Rudolph Valentino in A SOCIETY SENSATION. She's only a minor character and the film is a standard romantic programmer but I really do wish it had been just them having goofy adventures together.

Happy #LetterboxdFriday! My #LastFourWatched 🎥 A solid true crime thriller from last year, docs about Norman Mailer's failed 1969 NYC mayoral campaign and Paul Reubens' somewhat more successful career in show biz, and a gleefully low brow Stephen Chow flick
