Paul Costello @paulcinephile.bsky.social · 19/11/2024Incidentally, that guy who declares that “nobody leaves this place without singing the blues”? That’s blues legend Albert Collins. So when he tells you to sing the blues, you damn well better do it, especially if he’s going to back you up on guitar. 110
Paul Costello @paulcinephile.bsky.social · 20/11/2024The bedroom scene in A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014). Absolutely stunning scene, and not just because of the crisp black and white. It positively bristles with charge, you can feel it just radiate from the screen. youtu.be/WuN4wcDGlIc?...youtu.beA Girl Walks Home Alone at Night - Breathtaking sceneYouTube video by saylala 100
Paul Costello @paulcinephile.bsky.social · 20/11/2024I love the layers. That feeling of his slow, tentative seduction obscuring the tension of her own predatory urges. The usual “Dracula smoothly approaches his victim from behind” bit is flipped because he’s only wearing a costume, and she’s the real deal. And yet, maybe they can be something else. 100
