This Saturday, I’m introducing a screening of the newly restored RAISE THE RED LANTERN at Film Forum. This early Zhang Yimou classic had long been out of circulation so I’m really glad the audience can finally experience its gorgeous cinematography and Gong Li’s breathtaking performance on the big screen again. Tickets on sale now and you can get an exclusive discount using code CINECINA: https://t.co/MhtMi7vps0

BREAKING: Idaho voters projected to choose the Winchester Model 1873 as their official state gun.

63% chance.

If there’s any justice in this world, Shō Miyake should have been as big a name as Hamaguchi

And Shyamalan's bad films are better than Waititi's good films.

A movie theater is planning to hypnotize people into forgetting their favorite movies so they can watch them again for the first time

Fans will be shown The Matrix, Se7en, La La Land, or Interstellar after undergoing hypnosis

Way too many recent breakouts for an "all time" list while true masters like Mario Bava, Terence Fisher, Richard Feischer, Takashi Shimizu, Kaneto Shindo, Kuei Chih Hung, and Herman Yau are missing. Also, if Kubrick can be included for only one horror, where's Charles Laughton?

And I guess they don't count Kaiju films as horror?

We just made a promise no Hollywood studio has ever made. No sex or nudity on screen, no F-word, and no misuse of God's name in Angel originals. And 3 million Guild members get a veto on everything before it ever lands on Angel.

Parents shouldn't have to sift through a dozen movies to find one they can watch. That's why we made the Angel Promise. https://t.co/NdKCY2cisr
