Just arriving to Telluride. My first time! Follow along at Letterboxd for my hot takes! Stars! Hearts! Some jokes! boxd.it/oM4p

Loooooved Andrea Arnold’s Bird, which had the best use of Lucky Man since my own wedding. Upsetting, then compelling, and ultimately magical. #Telluride

Don’t Let’s Go To The Dogs Tonight is a major misstep, where we once again get the colonial perspective of the colonizers, trying to both sides the situation & using the colonized at plot devices. at home in the ‘90s, painfully dated in 2024. + cute kid manipulation. #Telluride

Emilia Perez is ambitious and invigorating, with some stunning musical numbers and a juicy plot that will play well to the Netflix crowd. Fantastic performances, and (to my eye) a respectful approach to the nuanced material. I love a big swing. #telluride

Call me crazy, but I like it when cardinals wear their little formal outfits and smoke cigarettes or use iPhones or reference contemporary American politics. So yeah, I liked Conclave. #Telluride

With Anora, Sean Baker’s seedy mania is becoming a ballet. The spiritual successor to Tangerine shows how he’s continually getting better at, well, everything (and he was pretty incredible to start). A masterpiece. I would die for Igor. #Telluride

Saturday Night not quite alive. Great performances (particularly Dylan O’Brien and Tommy Dewey) keep the show goin, but mileage varies based on your investment in SNL and New York. I don’t think the framework did the film a service. #Telluride

Wrapped my first Telluride with A Real Pain and Nickel Boys. The first was funny and touching and hit me deeply on a personal level. The second was crucial, visionary filmmaking that left me emotionally crushed. A great way to end the weekend, and two movies you have to see.

My #Telluride 2024 rankings. 10 films seen (a handful more I wish I could have). Really loved the top 5 (and could probably shuffle them around depending on mood). Only really disliked the last one.

One of my favorite things is when my job gives me an excuse to shoot the breeze with my friends and tie it to a feature. Spoke w/ DJ R-Tistic about HBCU party culture and the impact it's had on the spread of Black music - especially hip-hop uproxx.com/music/dj-r-tis…
