What this means is it's five years since we last published an article, I think. Seven years wasn't a bad run, and the whole site is still available to read at https://t.co/Yjr5GQXiOs
Reminder that the MostlyFilm (FU) forum still stands, if this place falls and you need to find your people. We've been there before, and we can get through it again.
Oh God. Mosfilm’s YouTube channel is full of restored film treasures - Tarkovsky’s Stalker and Solaris; Kalatozov’s Soy Cuba; Bondarchuk’s Fate of a Man; and even Eseinstein’s Battleship Potemkin!
"Does this mark the end of Miike’s career as the go-to director for Asian weirdness? I suppose it depends on whether you trust the judgment of the sort of wankers who think that yelling at projected images will improve them." - love this opening line from @MostlyFilm
. @MostlyFilm only ever did two obits, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Harry Dean Stanton. I think we might have been rushing to do two more today. A very sad day for lovers of effortlessly cool, terrrifying criminal psychopaths. RIP Jean-Paul Belmondo and Michael Kenneth Williams.
Ah, Bullseye is trending so time to hop on that train with one of the finest paragraphs ever written about Jim Bowen, from @hankinshaw. Stick around for the slightly eerie Barrymore stuff, too. Actually, the whole thing is gold, I love this piece: https://t.co/YkjFbxGcbm
Britain, I’ve now seen your show #Bullseye and I truly don’t know where to begin. Holy shit. I’ve never been this mesmerized by television in my life. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever been this mesmerized by anything in my life. I feel like a cobra listening to a flute.
