there are always little moments in film that ca. take your breath away with their simplicity and power, and the scene where frank snaps a polaroid of the victim and her humanity, and his own sense of justice, comes into stark view as the picture develops is one of them. sidney lumet the 🐐

Alex Cox is kickstarting what he's calling his last movie. Cox taught a whole generation about outsider art, defining for many of us Gen X filmmakers what it was to have a singular voice in a space many disregarded as disposable.

If you want to explore Jewison's filmography, you can start in so many different places. Of course I'd say go with In the Heat of the Night, but if not, try The Thomas Crown Affair or Fiddler on the Roof or Rollerball or A Soldier's Story or Moonstruck or The Hurricane. He did one of everything.

🧵. Kelly makes suggestions if you are sitting in a morass of "what can I do?" If you can just show up & speak for literacy, and how graphic novels and TV tie-ins and books about people like ME (whoever Me is) increase reading, ability, literacy. ELEVEN people are behind over half the book banning.
