My new music video for @juliacumming_'s 'My Life' single on @partisanrecords has been out for one week. It was a hugely fun one to put together. Please enjoy the FULL video here! It's mostly one single shot (take 14, since you asked) and I couldn't even begin to make a vid like this without an AMAZING crew who worked their socks off. Full credits in previous posts and eternal thanks to them all.

Raiders of the Lost Ark turns 45 today - The Truck Chase Watching Indy make it up as he goes, is exhilarating. A gold standard for action pacing and editing: Michael Kahn cuts it like a heartbeat, rapid and tight in danger, then a wider breath when Indy gets a second to recover

Attenzione, Roma! Ho una grande notizia! Sono felicissimo di annunciare che mercoledì 17 giugno sarò a #IlCinemaInPiazza per presentarvi Hot Fuzz, il secondo capitolo della mia Trilogia del Cornetto. Proprio in Italia, la casa del Cornetto! Per me è un vero onore essere protagonista di una retrospettiva dedicata ai miei film, con proiezioni ogni mercoledì a Monte Ciocci, e non vedo l’ora di incontrarvi in piazza per parlare di Hot Fuzz, la mia esplosiva dichiarazione d’amore al cinema d’azione. (Con qualche tocco di giallo, naturalmente. Grazie, maestri Bava e Argento!) La proiezione sarà in lingua originale con sottotitoli in italiano. L'appuntamento è alle 21:15 a Monte Ciocci. L'ingresso è libero e gratuito, senza prenotazione. ilcinemainpiazza.it. Roma, ci vediamo la prossima settimana!

Hugely influential, insanely quotable, certified solid gold Brit comedy classic.

Remembering the brilliant Marjane Satrapi, the extraordinary artist and filmmaker behind Persepolis. Through this deeply personal and powerful film, she gave audiences a story of identity, freedom, exile and resistance that continues to resonate across the world.

Not an urgent hot take, but the scene in Elaine May’s A New Leaf where Walter Matthau spends several minutes on their wedding night trying to help May put on her “Grecian”-style nightgown correctly is a physical comedy masterclass that more people should rave about.

I really enjoyed 'Backrooms'. Imaginative, hypnotic and cryptic in a purely pleasurable way. Saw it with a full house, 9pm on a Sunday night. It's different from 'The Blair Witch Project' but I was reminded of seeing that film on its opening weekend and, similarly, how you could hear a pin drop in a packed house. Great to see young filmmakers and new horror movies keeping the big-screen experience in rude health. Bring it on.

Exciting!
DISCLOSURE DAY is top tier Spielberg, as exhilarating as RAIDERS but with the emotional texture & increased ambition of his post-9/11 work. Right from the opening Spielberg lays down the gauntlet and reminds you that he does this stuff better than anybody in the history of film.

Olá cinefilia!! Nas últimas semanas eu desenvolvi um site que é um arquivo de revistas de cinema antigas. O foco é em fazer full-text search e facilitar a leitura (assim você não precisa ficar dando zoom em PDF). cinemarchives.com.br

NEW YORK CITY! I will be IN PERSON this weekend to for a 'Baby Driver' Q&A in at @RegalMovies Union Square this Sunday, 5/24 after the 5:05pm show. I did intros and Q&A's at this very theatre back on opening day in 2017. I'll see you there Sunday! regmovies.com/movies/mays-ba…

Do the right thing, let it play in theaters until every last person has seen it.

Producer Jason Blum doesn’t know how long “Obsession” will play in theaters before landing on digital platforms, but he said it’s a “big topic of conversation at the moment.” Blum adds that he’s a “big believer in a long, consistent theatrical window." trib.al/1HiehzJ
