Once again, many of this country’s institutions, and especially its judiciary, are institutionally transphobic

Film 61 of 2025: High and Low A basically perfect film, and a real treat to see it in a cinema full of people who laughed at every funny moment and line

The reporting on the trans travel visa ban is criminal. It does NOT only affect transgender athletes. The cables CLEARLY say it affects all trans people. They can reject visas on point 6 of anyone who is requesting a visa that does not match their assigned sex at birth.

Film 60 of 2025: I Live in Fear Horror at the coming nuclear annihilation is not allowed in Kurosawa’s 1950s Japan. Extremely upsetting, and extremely cathartic. Easily holds its own with his most famous 1950s work (Rashomon, Ikiru, Seven Samurai, Throne of Blood, The Hidden Fortress). Watch it.

Honestly, who are these people? ‘Sure thing, boss, I’ll tell the workers about your scheme of ‘Mutually Assured Resignation’

Preparing for strike action always has the vibe of getting my affairs in order.

Film 58 of 2025: I’m Still Here This is an early contender for ‘film that made me cry the most in 2025’

Film 57 of 2025: Adaptation If this had been more like ninety minutes it would’ve been a clear five stars

Film 56 of 2025: The People’s Joker Fantastic trans art that Warner Bros literally didn’t want you to see, finally showing in a tiny set of UK cinemas

Film 55 of 2025: Three Colours: Red I won’t be rushing back to watch any of these again

Film 54 of 2025: Sing Sing Fuck A24 for making this so hard to see for so long

Film 53 of 2025: Three Colours: White I’m afraid I really don’t see how this is a particularly good film

This by @sandraduffy.bsky.social is very worth your time

Film 52 of 2025: Cléo from 5 to 7 I was in all honesty expecting to be quite bored by this, and my partner certainly was. But I found this really captivating

Film 51 of 2025: Three Colours: Blue I can see why people like this, but to me it felt like wading through soup

Film 50 of 2025: The Straight Story This was so much better than I had been led to believe, and I think I’ll take a little while to fully process it

Film 49 of 2025: Brighton Rock It’s a personal aesthetic thing, but there’s something that I find very unappealing about this period of British filmmaking

Film 48 of 2025: Pearl I had of course heard all about the final shot. But I was truly not prepared for how good it would be

Film 47 of 2025: Dream Scenario Hell is other people(‘s dreams)

This afternoon I have finally submitted a journal article that I've been working on for years

The judiciary of England & Wales is institutionally queerphobic

Film 46 of 2025: The Elephant Man Bleaching your friend’s bones and then displaying them at your workplace is proper ally behaviour

In a surprise to nobody, propaganda is effective

Forgot to share this yesterday, but: Film 45 of 2025: Girls Will Be Girls I’m afraid I found this extremely boring

Film 44 of 2025: The Passion of Joan of Arc Seminar prep.

Film 43 of 2025: Sakura A perfect, fun, funny film for when you’ve only had four hours’ sleep the night before

Film 41 of 2025: Eraserhead David Lynch’s daughter was nine when this came out. I wish I’d waited until my youngest was that sort of age before watching this overwhelming film on the nature of parenting a tiny child.

Film 40 of 2025: When Harry Met Sally Nope. Don’t like it.

Film 39 of 2025: Hercules Solid Sunday morning film

Film 38 of 2025: Sicario I was surprised how bored I was by this
