@CasparSalmon Kelly Reichardt's Showing Up but also Park Chan-wook's Decision to Leave, Peter Strickland's Flux Gourmet, and Daniels' Everything Everywhere All at Once

That's besides the Polley, Glazer and Cronenberg films already mentioned.

A tribute I really wish I didn’t have to write, in praise of the late, staggeringly great Michael Kenneth Williams, who belongs on any attempt to make an HBO Mt Rushmore: https://t.co/q3CvVjXUUh

RIP Jean-Paul Belmondo (1933-2021), the undisputed king of cool

Who gets to be a critic?

For my debut piece for @voxdotcom’s The Highlight, I tried to get at the core of this question, the value of a diverse pool of voices, the gatekeeping forces preventing that, and how a Craigslist ad was my way in.

Chaplin did it first. 1920s

Kogonada, Andrea Arnold, Mia Hansen-Love, Julia Ducournau, Apichatpong Weerasethakul, Wes Anderson...What a line-up! Oh how I wish I could make it to Cannes this year.

Ta-Nehisi Coates and Colson Whitehead are not the same person. Yes, the underground railroad features in The Water Dancer too. But @BarryJenkins is NOT adapting Coates' debut novel.

Poured myself into this essay for @reverse_shot on Catherine Breillat’s Fat Girl and how being a punkish immigrant kid shaped my cinephilia and vice versa. Would love it if you gave it a read😌 https://t.co/SM6zQF4X0M

Josephine Decker's Shirley is finally available for streaming (on @BmsStream) in India.

As this review will attest, it's a gem.

@_PVRCinemas seems to have confused Chaos Walking with Judas and the Black Messiah. Still, I'm pretty sure Chaos Walking is no one's sci-fi flick of the season.

Céline Sciamma simply refuses to miss.

her first movie since Portrait of a Lady on Fire is a Miyazaki-inspired, 72-minute time travel story about a girl befriending her own mom. small & low-key but perfect in its way
