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.

She dropped this in the middle of the Q&A and I barely recovered

What a beautiful oddity THE SAMURAI AND THE PRISONER is. Kurosawa’s beguiling portrait of a warlord who hates killing reads like a heartfelt tribute from one disruptor to another. One of KK’s most confounding—a true Cannes standout. Words for @TheFilmStage https://t.co/BHzsaew6Zk

Evening viewing recommendation? On @criterionchannl, watch the exclusive streaming premiere of Thierry Frémaux's LUMIÈRE, LE CINÉMA! (2025) — a glorious (re)telling of the genesis of cinema and a profound meditation on the beautiful world captured—and the mysterious world imagined—by the Lumière brothers. https://t.co/vL65XOwloJ

“I’m sure you realize that this is a beautiful film”

[The Hollywood Reporter @THR]

'Blue Heron' is the most acclaimed film of 2026, and director Sophy Romvari says its existence can be credited to grants provided by the Canadian government at both the script and production stages.

“I really did make exactly the movie I wanted to make.... When I started making work in Canada, I was not aware of the privilege of living in a country that has access to arts funding. The version of this film that I would’ve made within the American system would be very, very different — and I don’t know if that one would’ve gotten distribution.” https://t.co/3IJQEP8Mfn

This weekend, see BLUE HERON — the transcendent feature debut from Sophy Romvari — in theaters c/o @janusfilms. 💙 https://t.co/RCAXFhVZqG

@SophyRomvari's feature debut is a lyrical and profound testament to the things we carry with us, masterfully chronicling the haze of a languid summer and the hyaline clarity of the moments that defined it.

For the night crowd. @SophyRomvari has made the best film of the year so far. See it as soon as you can.

[Sophy Romvari @SophyRomvari]

I can’t even begin to explain what this means to me.
