Yeah. I saw Oppenheimer in the same format and it was pretty special.

Saw the film again today, this time in IMAX 70mm, and felt like I was levitating during the whole car chase sequence. Cinema!

better to embrace it in your mid 30's so you can get to donald fagen's solo work before your hearing really starts to go

Scorsese is about to do a press run for the Apple documentary, which means we're one week away from him being asked about One Battle After Another and saying something like, "Now that's a terrific picture! Just terrific! It reminded me of when I saw 'A Fistful of Dollars' back in 1967."

Yeah, Seconds is incredible!

We're calling it Seconds (1966) for elite stan protection

holy shit

Wow!! I just received $80 million in seed capital for my startup that provides critics with new identities, addresses, and social security numbers after they lightly criticize Taylor Swift's new album.

Demands your attention loudly and impatiently but then settles into a groove that rewards it, at the expense of whatever else you might have been doing. A real feat to even attempt something like that, let alone to succeed the way they do.

Kaleb Horton deserves to have an L.A. Times obituary. And a New York Times one, even though he didn't live here.

No, just a temporary glitch I think (cc @princessdaisy.bsky.social)

My theory of Tom Waits is that in 1980, he entered a portal that takes you directly from 30 to 65 and he has somehow been 65 years old ever since.

Here's what I've learned in 35 years: If you're gonna make a cool-as-hell song with whipcrack noises, you really can't do better than "Jockey Full of Bourbon."

Michael, thank you, but this is The Mollusk erasure

In a happier world, I would spend so much more time thinking about Barry White than Bari Weiss.

That was such a great night

Pagliacci goes to see Pagliacci. He's in the audience, but also on the stage. "Is this, fuck," he thinks. "Am I in a Lynch film right now. Am I in Mullholland Drive." Captured by confusion, horror, and strange, exultant sorrow, the clown must admit he is no longer depressed

Happy birthday, Grant

See, this is why I can't become a hat guy. I look like a child in a middle-school production of Guys and Dolls.

It's nothing $100 won't fix

He's in the new Jim Jarmusch film that I'm seeing tomorrow

Yeah, man. I'm running on a campaign of bringing CD players back to cars.

I'm 35 today, which means I'm now the same age Tom Waits was when he recorded Rain Dogs. Why doesn't my voice sound like that.

Right. He seemingly owns the rights to his '80s and '90s films, which are the ones on Criterion.

I have wondered why so much of Jarmusch's filmography is perpetually available on Criterion Channel. Turns out he owns the rights and is licensing the films himself—glad he's getting paid.

Then the guy said, "Guess how many times I've been in jail." I said, "Zero?" He said, "Five!" Someone needs to put this guy in a Safdie brothers movie.
