Fred Durst appearing anywhere is beyond the realms of acceptable behaviour quite frankly. He should be kept on display in a glass cage and be continually poked with pointy sticks.

Excellent film, beautifully made in its intimate confines, and fundamentally to me a story about fear - Sonny is scared; scared of his life and what it's becoming, scared of how he'll respond to the stresses of that life, scared of the hostage situation that he's out of his depth for, and ultimately so scared he dictates his last will and testament. Such a good piece of cinema.

And the follow-up, watched with a friend over Discord this morning - man, no wonder so many tgirls are obsessed with Cronenberg (this is my first). Full of impactful imagery and influence (TV Glow has at least two notable scenes swiped from this), a deeply cutting film with its satires of violence and the mass media, and an incredibly prescient movie when focusing on the rise of virtual identities and a nostalgia for the hazy and analog nature of videocassettes.

I watched the Netflix sci-fi called Life yesterday. I actually enjoyed it quite much.

Deeply funny - the twenty seconds at the zoo with the monkeys is the hardest I've laughed at anything in a long time - and crushingly relatable. It's good to know that even though I may be a uni graduate scared of the future and filled with ennui and sexual neuroticism, I haven't gone as psychopathic as Ben did.

Comfortably the bloodiest film I've seen in my life so far - lots of visceral horror with plenty of yonic symbolism. Had some interesting ideas about self-destruction and the nature of nostalgia, but ultimately I think some of the writing sunk it a little bit (there's a 2001 gag near the end of the film that's completely unearned).

I rewatched Scarecrow
It got the Palme d'Or in 1973, and flopped almost everywhere
It's brilliantly played (my favorite Pacino part) yet noone's showing off
I wish I still had my copy of Midnight Cowboy, there's a distant connection between these two, in terms of kindness

watched the SHINING for first time in decades. Beautiful to look at, but I prefer the stephen king novel.

I've re-watched 'Threads' on Thursday on the BBC iPlayer because it was on the day before, so it was still available to view in good quality. The first time I've watched it was some years ago, I think I may have bought some VHS copy of it from some second hand shop after someone tipped me off to it. It's very bleak and still shows perfectly the chaos and destruction the capitalist system brings to human existence in colour. Everything leads up to misery. I can only compare it in terms of bleakness to watching a Channel 4 drama called 'No Child of Mine' I've seen some years ago, or a feature film like 'Lilya 4-ever'.

Threads is a rough watch.


I've heard "The Day After" is pretty similar https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085404/

My first Lynch. I think it's about Hollywood as a place of unreality, and the inevitable confusion and distress that follows from such. But fucked if I know. Great film, and not just because of the lesbianism.

Pretty much, yeah. The details or a specific set in stone meaning aren't really what Lynch movies are about. They're mostly about conveying themes and about how they make you feel in the moment. Beneath all the cryptic imagery and general Lynchisms lie some pretty universal and simple emotional beats, usually. One is best served interpreting his work on an emotional-sensory level rather than trying to pinpoint what each scene means exactly. At least that's been my experience. Glad you liked it. Blue Velvet and Lost Highway explore very similar themes.
