If you're going to watch a Hackman today as a tribute to really and truly one of the best to ever do it, my recommendation, as ever, is HEIST. A quintessential Hackman turn, both for actor and character: sturdy, professional, unpredictable, electrifying. jasondashbailey.blogspot.com/2022/11/seco...

This week Venmo closed my account without any warning & removed all of the funds. The account was not inactive. They are claiming no fault & I now need to lodge a claim with a govt dept to request my money but there is no record of the transfer. And I’m not alone. www.reddit.com/r/venmo/comm...

A perfect film. And John Hillcoat's debut feature that Nick Cave co-wrote and has a small but amazing cameo in GHOSTS...OF THE CIVIL DEAD is on Youtube in full (otherwise impossible to find for depressingly stupid reasons)

One of my favourite small David Lynch moments is when he tried to do one of those ceramic art cows for New York City and submitted this and was rejected.

The AFI Research Collection at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia is a goldmine that is near criminally underused - every filmmaker and film critic in the country should be using it as part of their regular professional practice, yet so many don't even know it exists! afiresearch.rmit.edu.au

Stuck in that anxious power blackout limbo not knowing how much work (already past deadline) has been lost into the ether with no time estimate on it being restored. (Is this the beginning of a Haneke film? It’s -9 outside due to hit -17. When does anarchy and cannibalism become permissible?)

Have been excitedly holding out for this announcement. If you know me then you probably know what Mike Hodges meant to me as a filmmaker. Contributing a visual essay to this release (beautifully edited by Jonathan Zaurin) was a privilege and an honour. Coming March 2025 from @arrowvideo.bsky.social

Recent chats with contemporary action heroes @themountaingoats.bsky.social + @joshnelsonfilm.bsky.social returned me to the genius opening of Death Wish IV: The Crackdown, but this stupid yt clip cuts off the best bit: when Bronson removes the villains mask HE SEES HIS OWN FACE

“You might be amazed [Simpson and Bruckheimer] were totally convinced that I was the right one to direct. Really, I don’t know why [they] thought I should do it, and finally I had to say no – I said to them, ‘I will destroy your movie if I direct it!'” Oh, I know why - cocaine
