Holy shit.

Book cover for The Girls, by John Bowen.

Really enjoying this book. Thanks to @daveyjenkins.bsky.social on the @lwlies.com podcast for the recommendation.

April (Dea Kulumbegashvili): Absolutely flattened by this one. A pro-abortion drama that manifests the weight of the loneliness that comes from performing a thankless, traumatizing job into a withered husk creature, empty space and a cacophonous soundscape. Major.

Haha thanks! I came across you completely by chance searching 'Erotic Vagrancy', trying to see what the consensus was on it.

Maybe not identical, but you're not getting any surprises, that's for sure.

You could argue that Will is saying food writers don't have to review every new branch of a fast food franchise that opens. The readership probably already knows what a big mac tastes like.

Mike Leigh by Stuart Pearson Wright, oil on canvas, 2003

This 2003 portrait of Mike Leigh by Stuart Pearson Wright has always been a favorite.

And of course, it’s great to see Leigh’s already at work on his next film — deadline.com/2025/01/mike...

Holy shit!

Lunar New Year's greetings from Jia Zhangke (brought to you courtesy of bottled water)

I haven't! Also directed by Clay right? It's definitely high on the list.

This is good news! I've been away for the past 3 weeks and just presumed I'd missed it.

Oh god that must be so frustrating! No grounds to return it to the seller?

Great news!

Gregg Araki’s Nowhere, now that my friends is a motion picture

In North America, I'm struck by the whole realtors (and lawyers) as personalities/selling points of their services. Not at all a thing in the UK.

Rewatching Twin Peaks currently. We are deep into the second series and this must be the most repeated establishing shot. I love it.

True! Although that also could be read as her humouring him, but her husband knows she's not fully comfortable? I might be completely off base.

I thought it was because of his wife's OCD. A well meaning gesture that would be uncomfortable for his wife to have around. Her house is so sanitised. I'm pretty sure she doesn't have any flowers or houseplants.

Holiday reading. This is brilliant.

Commendable, Hannah!
