I liked Scorsese as a teenager, but after that, he’s really close to nothing. I can’t stomach the insipid voiceovers that hold your hand through a 3 hour film. It’s not about the AI business. We already know he worships money and celebrity. At this point, he’s just a nuisance.
Ernst Lubitsch's final completed film, CLUNY BROWN 🔧 screens this Tuesday, 6/9 at 12:20 & 6:50pm.
One of Lubitsch’s wittiest, slyest, & lightest comedies, starring Jennifer Jones as an uninhibited plumber and Charles Boyer as a dashing Czech academic.

Americans are objectively the best at making you believe that their writers and directors are better than they truly are, a culture built on advertisement and celebrity worship exists to tell you Paul Thomas Anderson is on of the best filmmakers alive without cracking a smile.
What has he influenced that makes him so important? The Safdie brothers? You can keep that. Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore is okay, but that’s not what his admirers look for.
@__TheNearPost_ You’re right. And dealing with people is his worst quality. Hopefully he doesn’t ruin Cherki like he did Palmer. People bang on about 3-0 vs PSG, but that was the only game he abandoned his usual style to play in the exact opposite way.
The world's finest writers are shut inside a jewish-built ghetto in Gaza, while New York academics steal their thoughts and platforms to sell redeemed versions of their community.
All anyone need do is insist on Palestinian liberty, insist on who is guilty in this.
Read Omar..
@onelegnutmeg It’s disappointing but I feel they are improving despite results. The team is designed with flaws and these drag the level down. Firstly, they need Che to return. What do you think is the tactical adjustment that solves limited personnel?
It's interesting that A24 is not-so-quietly recruiting filmmakers like Kane Parsons, Curry Barker, the Philippou brothers, Ian Tuason -- all guys who created viral content prior to their big-screen debuts. The next generation of filmmakers will already come with their own built-in audiences because they cut their teeth creating content on YouTube or elsewhere.
Everyone likes to rag on influencer culture, but not enough are talking about the positives of YouTube creators shaking up the movie business -- Markiplier among them, too. I'm sure A24 is trying to get him to make his next movie there as we speak.
Columbia Anti-Semitism Czar whose ancestors bought and sold slaves – like all southern Jews who could afford to – inverts history: "Throughout the 19th & 20th centuries the attitude of Southern Jews toward race was more liberal than that of other whites." https://t.co/shMgPEJqr5
