as an English professor, I’d go as far to say these days I’m excited to see typos & fragments & run on sentences & page-long paragraphs & awkward word choices & any imperfection that suggests a human being sat down to do the very hard thing of writing a college paper.
The Night of the Hunter (1955) was slammed for being too weird. What critics missed was that Charles Laughton crafted a dark fairytale told through a child’s eyes, visually inspired by German Expressionism. One & done, yet he made a masterpiece.
What movies were widely panned by critics but are now considered masterpieces?
The greatest final film. Movies should never have to be—and practically never are—perfect. This one is, even with such daunting source material. I was thrilled to be asked to write the essay, and even more excited to hold this release in my hands.
THE DEAD (1987) • Entering the Criterion Collection in January! The elegiac last film by John Huston finds the legendary director adapting a masterly short story by his favorite writer, James Joyce, into a poignant reflection on the totality of life.
The earrings make me teary-eyed every time. Darwell first looks with the happy expression of the girl she was… and then she sees the face that time and heartache have given her. Shit I am not even looking at the scene and I am digging out my Kleenex
Donald Sutherland on the movies that changed his life: "'Paths of Glory' (1957). It’s just a perfect film, and so is 'La Strada' (1954). I saw both of them on the same day. They effectively changed my life. They catalyzed certain thoughts that were in my mind. I should say a…
Many have shared with me stories of finding letters written by their grandparents that read like the works of great authors. Orwell says that in the 1940s, kids were reading Dickens, Doyle, Defoe. You don't need Harvard to obtain a world-class education. You just need to read.
Reading any bit of scrap written in English between ~1850-1950 feels like stumbling upon a lost civilization of 140 IQ geniuses compared to what our elites put out today. Random letters by soldiers show more erudition than Harvard PhDs.
Here’s my opening page design for Jake Hinkson’s outstanding story “Southern Nights” exploring southern, noir-tinged movies. Donate to the Film Noir Foundation to get the digital edition. Print edition available next week. filmnoirfoundation.org/noircitymagazi…
The Mitchell Leisen film that has gone from "What's that?" to "I *love* that movie!" is REMEMBER THE NIGHT. When I wrote about it around 2008 or so, hardly anyone had seen it.
From the silent era to date, screen acting doesn't get much better than what Diane Keaton is doing in this scene from REDS.
yes!
Friendly reminder that human beings play this game
Orion Kerkering's dad crying for an entire inning in his son's MLB debut was one of the coolest moments of the season. I don't care what team you root for.
I think about this YouTube comment almost every day
Vanessa Redgrave on every film set she worked on
Masterpiece. Would make my short list of The Greatest Films of All Time.
Lon Chaney’s most haunting role? He Who Gets Slapped (1924). Now on Blu-ray from Flicker Fusion: a sharp restoration, great score, and extras that hit. limitedaccess.substack.com/p/he-who-gets-…
This bird just found out that golf balls bounce on concrete, and he’s having the time of his life 😂
"You've never heard it till you've heard Eddie Vedder sing it." Such respectful lines by Tom Petty, then he invites Eddie Vedder to stage. There you have a beautiful performance of a song called 'The Waiting' live in 2006. Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers and Eddie Vedder, the…
