Struggling with the notion that it's life not film.

@DeclouxJ That Rodriguez SPY KIDS 2 commentary is amazing! Very inspiring about creative process.

[Ross Birks @rossbirks]

@NONAMESOSPECHO1 @DeclouxJ He’s done more than you think. He did a great track for True Romance, and is on the Hostel commentary. Plus a few films he champions like Five Fingers of Death/King Boxer and Switchblade Sisters. Think he has a hard rule on not doing commentaries to films he’s directed sadly!

Fun fact: I believe @BernardJMRose actually had Virginia Madsen hypnotised on-set to achieve her woozy expression in many of these shots. They're really something. As if shot through an Old Hollywood gauze. Major Dietrich/von Sternberg energy.

Been noodling with little video essay experiments for a while now but with Halloween around the corner I thought it'd be a good time to start actually releasing a few. First up: "Man, look how beautiful those close-ups are in CANDYMAN!" https://t.co/zG3eGjDAm0

Here's one for Film Twitter: What's a movie that you consider to be an underrated or little seen gem from a filmmaker that is otherwise well-known? What's your hidden fave that you feel slipped through the cracks that more people need to see?

[Ross Birks @rossbirks]

@spacejamfan Foxcatcher. I mean, it’s still solid but when I first saw it I was sure I was seeing a new American classic. Actors in prosthetics, gets me every time!
