Just received a rare gem direct from Japan:
'Sawa – Le Nouveau Monde Amoureux' by Nobuyoshi Araki.

Tracked down this absolute masterpiece of a photobook because I fell in love with Banmei Takahashi’s A New Love in Tokyo. Sawa Suzuki is such an icon.

Michael Mann on why #AvatarFireAndAsh is one of his favorite films of 2025:

Jim Cameron’s third "Avatar" is a massive achievement. The towering originality of Jim’s visualization is a given; what makes “Fire and Ash” so potent is its believability... Jim’s artistry, intellect and heavy lifting creates diverse alien biology, anthropology, mechanical engineering, politics, visualization and taut storytelling. It’s extraordinary. Jim began with a blank piece of paper. No writer-director I can think of has invented as large a three-dimensional world of his own imagining as has Jim.

I watched “Avatar: Fire and Ash” in 3D IMAX. People often say, “God is in the details,” but truly seeing that philosophy carried through in the act of creation is not an easy thing to do. This film shows absolutely no compromise, right down to the finest details, in the construction of the Avatar “universe.” It was magnificent.
For the past 40 years, I’ve been weaving entertainment and art alongside the evolution of cutting-edge digital technology. I’m a creator on the “digital side.” DEATH STRANDING was also shot and produced using technologies developed for Avatar.
Lately, films shot entirely in analog, without CG or VFX, have been increasingly praised. Even movies shot on film are celebrated, while digital works are sometimes dismissed with comments like, “Anyone can make it easily if it’s digital.” But that is a serious misunderstanding. CG works are also created by people. Countless actors, artists, and programmers pour their thoughts and passion into them, breathing life into the work.
Today, this film gave me renewed “pride” and “courage” as we look toward the future. It made me feel positive again about continuing to pursue “new things” using digital technology. Thank you, James Cameron. And I was also happy to see Kevin Dorman on the screen. He did so many performances for us on the set of DEATH STRANDING too. 🙏🙇🏻🫶😍
