Fixed!

Netflix’s ‘The Hunting Wives’ Is a Perfect High-Summer TV Bender What do you get when you combine gun-toting, coke-snorting MAGA housewives, a murder mystery, and Dermot Mulroney in a 10-gallon cowboy hat? An ideal dog-days brain-vacation in streaming-TV form—and G...

TIL that the trashy show people won’t shut up about has two episodes directed by Cheryl Dunye, so I guess I’ll watch it.

Stoked to intro a fave in Brooklyn this month!

Yes

Did a think for Letterboxd yesterday, a lot of fun films here and even (much) more in the larger list of over 600 titles

Long live the 90s

I’m not sure I agree there, I’d like how horrid this administration is to be preserved. Hopefully future generations will learn from those documents what not to do.

It reads like that isn’t an issue here as it isn’t being absorbed by the government but, instead, will archive government documents.

The Internet Archive just became an official U.S. federal library The new status means archive users gain access to a trove of government documents.

“Archive visitors will now have access to primary, government sources, in addition to materials uploaded by users or saved through accessible websites.”

This is a big win

If it weren’t for the fourth one, the whole series would be good

New disc arrivals for the past week or so. Haven’t seen half of these, which is always exciting.

The Sphere's AI-Altered The Wizard of Oz Is Already Drawing Fierce Controversy Las Vegas Sphere transforms The Wizard of Oz with AI. Critics cry vandalism while producers claim ethical innovation. The controversy, explained.

As it should. This is blatantly offensive corporate greed, dressing up an (already plenty impressive) film with AI to sell absurdly overpriced tickets in a venue that was never meant to screen films made over eighty years ago. And this is before we even get to how much footage they cut.

Fantasia Festival | Mixed Blood A drug-dealing matriarch who lives with her son and his gang of juvenile delinquents starts a brutal turf war in Alphabet City.

I’m Fantasia bound tomorrow morning, where I’ll introduce the MIXED BLOOD restoration for its world premiere.

This has been a very surreal week and I thought about canceling but I know that my mom would want me there, doing what I do. If you’re at the fest, please say hi. Would love to chat!

Packaging is very nice

Only Oliver knows

Looking for something resembling normalcy right now so here’s the latest batch of new disc arrivals.

I’m sure they will

movies that my mom loved One of the things that my mother and I most had in common was our shared love of movies. I strongly believe that you can tell a lot about a person by looking at their favorites and especially so if th...

Been spending a lot of time the past few days mulling over films my mom really enjoyed; many that we rewatched repeatedly over the years, others that she forced me to watch at a young age and even more that we discovered together in the cinema in the 90s and 00s

She loved to share, so please enjoy

Thank you to everyone who has commented, reached out directly or has offered support in any way over the past couple of days. My mother was a very private person but would have been so moved by the affection.

Here we are outside of our favorite store, @bullmoosestores.bsky.social in 2023

I hope you’re getting through it, sorry for your loss too

Thank you!

We are honoring her with donations to @motleymuttsrescue.bsky.social for anyone who would like to contribute to a nonprofit animal rescue in her, or your own, name. It would make her very happy.

My lovely mother passed away a couple of days ago. She was a massive force in my life, unwaveringly supportive of everything that I did personally and professionally. She made a career out of working with special needs children and teens and loved to read.

I’ll miss her greatly.

The first NC-17 film since BLONDE in 2022 is a Greek/Canadian drama MAYA & SAMAR

Ridiculous month for 4K upgrades from @criterion.bsky.social

Altered States is *huge*

And, yes, I know this is based off of a novel and there are other adaptations but Friedkin was clearly inspired by Clouzot

Perfect films with equally perfect remakes? I’ll start
