Lana Del Rey truly is one of a kind. Amazing new track.

Toute une nuit (Chantal Akerman, 1982)

"I've never loved anyone like that."

[Ioannis Kanonakis @ikanonakis]

L'homme atlantique (Marguerite Duras, 1981)

"You are at once present and hidden."

[Ioannis Kanonakis @ikanonakis]

By the Stream (Hong Sangsoo, 2024)

"What kind of person do you want to become?"

The crescent moon and the full moon: a film about the unseen and the unsaid; intergenerational confessions in the form of improvised poetry, or how to free oneself and embrace the flow. Beautiful.

7 Walks with Mark Brown (P. Creton, V. Barré, 2024)

"What an adventure! We'll remember it for a long time."

I'll remember it, too.

Experiencing the world as it is. Overwhelmed by the film's images, its peripatetic revelations, its humility, and its aliveness. A masterpiece.

All of this. Terms of Endearment is a great film, and Debra Winger gives one of the best performances of all-time in it.

[Logan Thompson @Benny_Profane_]

Terms of Endearment: one of the best capturers of expressions in cinema - with formal dexterity that goes beyond writing, composing dramatic musicality in the edit in his own specific way, like Pialat or McCarey in theirs - with three of the most expressive actors of all time.

[Ioannis Kanonakis @ikanonakis]

Hong Sangsoo.
