Mediocre, award-proof filmmaker. Former aspiring novelist. Low-ranking gadfly. Insufferable know-it-all. Opinions are my own and approved by my mum.

Introducing the Scottish-American travel dictionary 🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

We’ve put together this guide to keep the Tartan Army out of trouble in the States.

Read carefully to avoid confusing the locals, deeply offending the country, or being interrogated by Homeland Security over a sandwich.

I don’t know Nadav personally but he has done some great and independent movies. Boycotting him would be like boycotting Asghar Farhadi because he gets to work in iran undr the rule of IRGC. It’s unfair and against the spirit of artistic freedom.

Looking forward to this release from @FilmsRadiance.

It includes Farrokhzad's "The House is Black", among other titles that haven't screened anywhere in ages.

1. A very good example of bad journalism & framing, not informed by the hydrological facts on the ground.

The 2026 satellite images & even the used photos are not reflective of the current state of affairs when precipitation has been above historical normal in many places!

The best thing you can do when putting together a low budget film is consider what you *actually* need to pull off your vision. Film is inherently built on needless excess. Write for your budget instead of creating unethical working conditions.

Due to an accident, I finally watched "It Was Just an Accident". I have never been hit on the nose this much, not even in the octagon!

@nborgaonkarx @mskp_29 If I remember correctly, the CU in Thirst is a dolly in and then haloing the duo. Nevertheless, IB said at one point that he tends to "steal" and referred to the hallway shot in The Silence as "stolen" from Le Sang d'un poète (It's in one of the interview books!)
