@DanielGorman20 When I was first becoming obsessed with cinema in 2003-04, and at that time living in Nashville, TN, seeing a Rivette film was about as easy as finding El Dorado.
@realJackEason Criterion has released plenty of mediocre stuff but they've never been this devoted, long term, to a director so unremarkable. Criterion is home to many of the world's great movies and also the entire output of this guy whose work will be completely out of fashion in 15 years.
@phosphor_glow As hard as it is, it's pretty much part of the process. Keep trying and you'll get there. I'm just a rando online but I'm rooting for you.

@_Sheehogue_ Hard to pick between the two James novels, they're both about as good as books get. For something truly odd, I remember the James Hogg as a pretty fascinating and strange book, but it's been a long time since I read it. Great stacks, you can't go wrong.
@sohamncheese sadly the other Penn/Nicholson collab, The Crossing Guard, is essentially a movie about Grim Men's Evenings and is probably one of the worst movies ever made
I don't even like Christopher Nolan's movies, I think the Odyssey will likely be as mediocre as the rest of his output, but why are people judging anything based on a trailer? It's been many years since trailers bore any relationship to the actual finished film.
@phosphor_glow Been sober for 10 years. I'm also epileptic. It will be hard at first but surprisingly manageable once you're past the hard part. I'll be rooting for you!
@B3077305256071@alexL_E_I Nah, I watched it on Radiance's bluray that was released earlier this year. I think it might be on the Criterion Channel, though?
