I won’t be in London for another 6 months but simply cannot stop thinking about how excited I am to be visiting again. London mutuals, please recommend some movie-related things! I’m all ears with a wide-open schedule to accommodate

Incredibly excited for Sundance this year! Friends/mutuals, who will be in town? Would love to connect, chill, party, and of course, celebrate cinema!

INTERSTELLAR on IMAX 70mm was overwhelming. I basically cried the entire time. Anybody claiming Nolan’s films are devoid of emotion simply aren’t engaging. The sheer presence of love permeating through this thing bowled me over. Nothing like it!

Once again haunted by the two-part finale of TWIN PEAKS: THE RETURN. A painfully honest text on how cycles of violence seem destined to continue endlessly. No matter how much inherent good there is in the world doing all it can to curb evil, it will forever be a battle.

People are starting to see NICKEL BOYS, one of the best films of the year. Jomo Fray should be a lock for Best Cinematography. What he’s achieving visually and thematically is staggering. My #NYFF62 piece @insessionfilm.bsky.social: insessionfilm.com/chasing-the-...

KRAMER VS. KRAMER: straight up one of the best movies I've ever seen. Its unflinching honesty cracked me open very early on, and the tears just kept coming. Talk about two wildly exceptional performances. An unbelievable Best Picture winner

Read through Akira Kurosawa’s Wikipedia this AM and got misty-eyed. Goddamn I love movies more than basically anything else humans have created lol. It feels silly, but this year has reaffirmed that they’re an essential part of what makes me me

Always incredible when you throw on a classic and know nothing about it. Happened last night with DOUBLE INDEMNITY and I was absolutely blown away. Just an electric script for one of the best-looking movies I’ve ever seen

It’s so fucked up that there’s a second Horizon movie out there and we’re just not allowed to see it. I keep seeing Yellowstone ads rub the fact that they still have a season’s worth of Costner to burn but what about the rest of us? Failed country

Welcome twitter exiles! It can be confusing here at first (but sooo much better). First thing is to find some of your old pals! We put together a starter pack last month of film critics, writers, creators and obsessives to help you get started. Add it and then go from there :) go.bsky.app/CsvD994

Here’s one of the many things I have to say about Scorsese’s KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON: It’s likely his most important film ever. I simply cannot get that ending out of my head. Full review: wtrpod.com/killers-of-t...

#NYFF61 is full of such great films this year (as always). Got to write about THE SETTLERS, a bold feature debut full of deeply upsetting violence, but serving as a necessary lesson in history that has long been swept under the rug. Full thoughts: insessionfilm.com/movie-review...
