When David Bowie & Prince died in early 2016, my coworker said, "It's like the birds are scattering," and it has haunted me ever since.
Can anyone pin-point the exact moment where everything in society just got substantially worse?

In @C05M1C57R4N63R's The Best of Me, the '90s video diaries of Björk stalker Ricardo López are reassembled in a way that allows us to recognize them as an eerie harbinger of the online culture to come @shdwbxng on tonight's screening at @SpectacleNYC screenslate.com/articles/bes…

Congratulations to John Wilson and the homies on their big Sundance debut. One of its several jokes about Chef Boyardee made me laugh harder than anything in years.
The History of Concrete: basically just an 100-minute episode of How to With John Wilson in which he ponders the impermanence of TV shows, rocks, and all living things. loved every minute of it. an obvious early #Sundance2026 standout. my review: indiewire.com/criticism/movi…

Wrote about Julien Temple's Sex Pistols raucous documentary fantasia The Great Rock and Roll Swindle (playing in 35mm tonight at Anthology Film Archives). A real treat, in a time when music biopics take themselves so seriously. screenslate.com/articles/gre…

Major historic win for Sinners today—congrats to Ryan and the team. But keep in mind that adjusted for inflation, All About Eve received 193 Oscar nominations.

To be anti- a movie about someone driving fast cars is to be anti-cinema. So many people showing their true colors today. I haven't seen F1 and probably won't watch it, but I am rooting for it.

The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle tells the story of The Sex Pistols through the eyes of punk impresario (and the film's producer) Malcolm McLaren, portraying them as a product of savvy marketing @davidpschwartz on the special 35mm screening @AnthologyFilm screenslate.com/articles/gre…
