Woke up early on a travel day from France to hear of the passing of Sam Neill. Gifted, versatile and treasured by many, his performances in so many great films and shows will live on. What a legacy he leaves behind. RIP.

This is, in fact, not surprising at all. Last season was super weak. What are you smoking over there?

#Emmys Surprise: “Stranger Things” final season left out of Best Drama and acting categories.

Nearly 30 years later, BOOGIE NIGHTS is still quite a great picture. A huge blind spot for me. PTA's direction and screenplay zing and Wahlberg and Reynolds steal the show within a plethora of brilliant performances. #boogienights #dirkdiggler

Hello.
Hi.
I'm waiting for someone.
Who?
I can't remember.

Despite a clunky monologue in its mid section, A GHOST STORY is a poignant and quietly impactful meditation on time, memory, grief and longing. An almighty, unapologetic slow burn which left me both sad yet oddly grateful for the life I lead. #aghoststory

Already made it Jim. In post now. Keep up the good work.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but go make your movie.

Backrooms: $100m in six days.
Obsession: Sensational rise through word of mouth.
Mando & Goblin: Huge second week drop.
Hollywood: Terrified.

Shrek is 25. How did that happen? It's still perfect of course but wow, I feel old. Story's still great, cast is amazing and so on. What else is new? One of the first DVDs we ever got. Time just gets past me. #shrek

BACKROOMS: An unsettling, atmospheric existentialist nightmare with little to no answers? Hell yeah. Does it all come together in the end? Sometimes. 3.5/5. #backrooms #a24 #kaneparsons #horror #liminalspace

"The story of life is this."

A tale of love and hate, Spike Lee's DO THE RIGHT THING is one of the great American films.

[Tom Button @tombutton19]

Yes. Yes it is.

So OBSESSION. Okay.
A nerve jangling, teeth grinding debut? Uh huh.
A terrifying star turn? Yes.
The best horror film of the year so far? Absolutely.

Baby, wake up. @LAIKAStudios is back. #wildwood #animation #stopmotion

[LAIKA @LAIKAStudios]

There are places you don’t go.

One choice changes everything. Watch the Teaser Trailer for Wildwood now, and see the movie in theatres everywhere October 23. #Wildwood

Who else thinks that THE STING is one of the coolest films ever made? I mean, it's Paul Newman and Robert Redford for one, but the set-up, the flow, the setting- come on! Is it not just the epitome of slick? It is, is the answer. #thesting

[Tom Button @tombutton19]

Call it what you want but REBUILDING is the film we (mostly America) need right now. A story about generosity, kindness and community in the worst of circumstances, it embodies the hope and spirit of the US (as a Brit) I once knew. A low key gem. #rebuilding

Critical acclaim for Mark Jenkin's Rose of Nevada - opening in cinemas across the UK tomorrow. https://t.co/iQRrHwkPrR

Trying to process @bodysnatcherfl's new album is difficult. Second time is even harder. HELL IS HERE, HELL IS HOME is a monstrous and thundering project with gargantuan breakdowns and heavy lyrics which will make you want to take a shower afterwards. And that's a compliment. #HIH

[Tom Button @tombutton19]

So you know I had to get tickets for the UK wide tour of Mark Jenkins' @BFI backed Cornish ghost story ROSE OF NAVADA. Excited for the film and Q&A at @CurzonBbury on Friday (tube strikes be damned). I'll be there. #roseofnevada #BFI #markjenkin

Rewatched STAND BY ME for its 40th anniversary and it still hits after my mum first showed it to me as a kid. It is the greatest American coming of age film ever made and some people may disagree, but its just fact. RIP River. RIP Rob Reiner. #standbyme

[Tom Button @tombutton19]

The new album from @BilmuriTweets goes KINDA HARD. A great follow up of AMS- a dank combo of delectable riffs and Johnny's heart rending lyricism makes this an endlessly listenable and incredibly lean experience. A countrycore classic in the making. #kindahard #bilmuri
