“As if Sam Peckinpah directed Only Lovers Left Alive”
A favorable comparison to both Peckinpah and Jarmusch in one sentence? Thank you @filmhoundsmag!!!
@Elegant_Prose Me walking over to your table at a restaurant:
“I love the communal joy of a meal with friends.”
I just stand there recording you & your friends eating and livestream it to Facebook.
“I paid for a soda so i can do this.”
@BootsRiley It’s crazy how many people I’ve told about your film don’t know it exists yet. Doing my best to get the word out but it’s wild how such a vibrant film can be invisible to the masses.
@BootsRiley@Ezra_EX To be principled you need to avoid all media platforms because they’re all owned by evil corps. Just hand print film reels and pass them out to people on the street for free. That will get your message out to the masses and revolutionize the system!
@RudyHavenstein@GavinNewsom I’ve never been one to defend Gavin, and it’s not quite the same scale, but I was surprised how fast they got I-10 reopened after that huge fire.
@skinnyforlunch I’m old enough to remember punk snobs whining that Green Day wasn’t punk and was pop poser crap.
Nothing wrong with artists hopping genre or doing genre fusion either. It’s actually better when they don’t limit their artistry to the confines of one type of sound.
@drmistercody@HMBohemond Exactly. “Think for yourself” when he was educated by a system that convinced him service is the highest goal is exactly the point. His peers all want it too. The only counter opinion are his parents.
Love when people can comprehend a message buried one layer deep.
@iwelsh Conjuring ideas, crafting prose, imagining where a story goes, researching details, etc. Those are the things that make writing fun. Everything I hear about ai writing is give it a concept and edit the results. The easy part and the worst part. No thanks.
@annakatherines_ Back when Amazon used to allow filmmakers to reply to reviews of their films I’d always thank the negative reviewers for taking a chance on my film. They can’t all be winners but without audiences giving ‘em a shot we wouldn’t be able to take risks as artists.
@ratedPDG Totally agree on all points. Stone’s subtle comic chops in this are iconic. One of the few who ever took Verhoeven’s style and elevated it to perfection.
