The Order: Justin Kurzel at his most pedestrian, but sometimes you just want cops and robbers straight down the middle. Great supporting character in Jude Law’s 80s ‘stache. #TIFF24

Are we doing gender essentialism for the “Amy Adams turns into a dog” movie? I didn’t like it not because I “didn’t get it” as man, but because I’m the husband to a mom who suffered from PPD and I found it milquetoast and reductive.

Heretic: Atheist Hugh Grant DESTROYS two Mormon girls with facts and logic #TIFF24

Still thinking about Heretic and how it must have been pitched as “Monica Sherwood from The Fabelmans in a horror movie.” Chloe East you will always be famous.

Queer: It takes a full-on madman to adapt Burroughs, so Guadagnino wisely chooses to make a movie about Burroughs instead. Desperate, strange, and challenging film about thwarted desire. Career-best Daniel Craig. Really great stuff. #TIFF24

It’s me, guy who doesn’t like anything.

Struggling to think of a more modern and economical “oh shit” moment than the “he’s on the Wikipedia” bit from Rebel Ridge

Every annoying thing about Letterboxd can so easily be ignored if you just mind your own fucking business

Wife told her office that I sometimes share 9/11 jokes by telling them: “He loves 9/11.”

Weird thing to admit

all child acting is in sort of an ethical grey area but i think you would genuinely have to be negligent to the point of abuse as a parent to allow your kid to star in the new harry potter show

Back on my hater shit

TIL Phoebe Bridgers wore my wife’s earrings to the Grammys three years ago

Post-TIFF shakeup

Red Rooms: Evil fucking movie. A roundhouse kick to the teeth to dismantle our culture of macabre obsession and parasocial madness. Loved every second of this.

I’m beginning to think this movie actually did psychic damage to me. Maybe has one of the most sickening acts of non-physical violence I’ve ever seen on film.

Mainstream criticism is in pretty dire straits, but most critics can still recognize dog whistle tripe when they see it. Also, Jeremy Jahns hasn’t leveled-up his film analysis once in almost two decades.

Something hilarious about defending a movie called “Am I Racist?” by calling me a dog eater
