big literary adaptations bring out the book critics and academics with fine ‘readings’ but little capacity to talk about film itself - 4k words but little to no mention of staging, framing, cutting or movement; acting reduced to casting, performances get an adjective or two

Beauty is central to cinema’s aesthetic appeal, yet it remains curiously under-discussed in much film scholarship. This conference invites a renewed focus on beauty as an aesthetic and affective phenomenon. Submit your abstracts by September 1st & be part of it!

@FilmFan1971 How is the Nordic noir strand so far?

@vrizov Feel like this one is missing something like "Surely, you also realize..." for added politeness.

[Lara Perski @InlandVampire]

@FCardamenis it's astonishing how appropriate his dumb perpetually confused facial expression suddenly seems when he is being adversarial to someone like Ted Cruz

Extreme fear drives everything I do, glad to see others are catching on.

AI is a Matryoshka doll of nested idiocies: 1 automating away work is bad (it’s good) 2 automation eliminates work (it just recomposes it) 3 AI is good at what it does (it isn’t & it won’t scale) 4 AI is artificial intelligence (it’s software) 5 intelligence exists (it doesn’t)
