We got @notoriouslightning.bsky.social of @hitfactorypod.bsky.social on the pod to talk The Fabelmans, a movie about how making movies basically ruined Steven Spielberg’s life, but it's also the only way he knows how to process everything bad that's ever happened to him.

Completely bizarre that I am watching a bunch of movies from Cannes 1992, completely on my own little weird day-to-day schedule, and yet I watched Mambety's HYENAS the day @hitfactorypod.bsky.social posted an ep on it, and then I watched BENNY'S VIDEO the same way @davidlsims.bsky.social watched it

@hitfactorypod.bsky.social Hooting with jubilation seeing that there is a podcast episode on Hyenas, a movie I watched a few months ago on Mubi. Looking forward to listening!

The @hitfactorypod.bsky.social year round up ep was great but I shouldn't have listened to it while driving, because I gotta go through again when I can safely add a lot of stuff to my watchlist.

The concept of making a movie about white supremacy and the military violence that enforces it with your Zionist pal Jonny Greenwood. (FTR I had a blast watching this movie I just think PTA is ideologically hollow and willfully focused on politics as vibes and vibes only.)

Released on this day in 1993: CARLITO’S WAY.

I joined @hitfactorypod.bsky.social to discuss it as one of De Palma’s three inarguable masterpieces.

Along the way we talk about SCARFACE as a septum-gored DAS KAPITAL, “natural artifice,” and De Palma as our most underrated melodramatist.

"Failed State’s dedication to naturalism creates a relationship between Dale and the empty city that borders on apocalyptic." Incredible review out of last night's @hitfactorypod.bsky.social
