Critic (Filmbulletin, @MaximumCinema, @swissinfo_en, @ofcs, @AsjcSVfj). AmLit post-doc. Cat person. Will rate your Werner Herzog impression. Any pronouns.
@filmcave That's true, though I was thinking more of general Bresson discourse on, like, film Twitter, where, in my experience, you get a more vocal fan base for THE DEVIL PROBABLY or L'ARGENT or A MAN ESCAPED.

Possibly the most anti-art statement to so far be uttered from the relentlessly impatient, and thus intellectually infantile, pro-AI crowd. Time is not the enemy of film — it is the key.
Thinking about starting Richard Crudo DP auteurism, entirely on the back of AMERICAN PIE and BRING IT ON AGAIN looking so much better than these kinds of movies tend to do.
Morgen kommt das neue Filmbulletin raus, and let me tell you: Die beiden Fokus-Essays sind hochintelligente Kulturkritik in Reinform. Die wollt ihr nicht verpassen.
Und nein, keiner davon ist von mir (I wish!).
