60th Anniversary of an American classic by Larry McMurty; made into an excellent film as well. Both seem very timely decades later.

He always loved ‘Amarillo by Morning.’ I should’ve known that was a warning..

The filmmaker (or) his producer was kind enough 2 give me tickets and a cassette tape Arbalest soundtrack at SXSW that year, I’ll be seeing this one.

[The New Yorker @NewYorker]

In 2016, Richard Brody was a juror at the South by Southwest festival. There, he threw his support behind the film “The Arbalest” for the Grand Prize. It won. Recently, Brody became curious about the subsequent work of the film’s director, Adam Pinney. That’s when he heard about “Mudville.”

A baseball-centric family melodrama, it’s largely a story of loneliness. In the film, a middle-aged father and husband attempts to reclaim his dream of playing professional ball, something that slipped through his grasp after he was caught driving under the influence. But what makes “Mudville” particularly noteworthy is its extremely D.I.Y. production. Pinney wrote, directed, shot, recorded sound, edited, and created the score, among other things. The movie was filmed in and near the house in Lilburn that he shares with his family, and three of the central characters are played by his own family members: his wife and their young children. “It’s worth comparing Pinney’s work on ‘Mudville’ to the achievements of the reigning champion of D.I.Y. filmmaking, the South Korean director Hong Sangsoo,” Brody writes.

You’re right. He’s amazing.

Jeremy Strong takes risks. Period. He might fall on his face playing Mark Zuckerberg in The Social Reckoning, but that’s part of being an artist- risking it all for something potentially great. Regardless of how this turns out, Strong has my respect. He’s a fearless actor.

Power Ballad baby. Humanity and gentle laughter and music. And to think it’s no. one and two on the box office charts, there must be some kind of Irish revolution in movies afoot.

Every time I see INHERENT VICE I find it increasingly hard to believe that it exists. The film not only gets better with each viewing, it somehow becomes more mysterious.

@Harmony_Holiday I hear this. Just seems like you need an MFA to get heard at all.
