as someone who’s seen She’s the He, this is a disingenuous way to describe the film. it omits the fact the film stars trans actors and is about coming to terms with one’s transness, subverting the usual trappings of the gender-swapping subgenre. a real shame people are writing it off.

rewatched Mulholland Drive this morning, saw Project Hail Mary tonight, and what i have to say is this: i love 2.5 long movies :) not much better than being swallowed up in the world of a longer movie

Picked Travis Stevens’ gorgeous 16mm experimental nightmare for Letterboxd Journal’s latest :) An under-seen gem all should check out, maybe especially fans of Josh Ruben. His performance in this is so unexpectedly terrifying and something I haven’t been able to shake for years!!

reminder: You should go see Glorimar Marrero Sanchez’s THE FISHBOWL (LA PECERA), a modest but emotionally rich film that connects Puerto Rico's past with a brave woman's present. My review via @ebertvoices.bsky.social

“The Fishbowl” is a meditative movie that locates resonance in its symbolism.

spent the morning with Glorimar Marrero Sánchez’s La Pecera (The Fishbowl). Deeply moved by the articulation of both an individual’s battle with cancer & community-wide sickness imparted by colonialism & how the two are entwined to create something larger & all-encompassing.

Hi all, hate to do a GoFundMe so close to taxes, but while Marya and I were out of town our cat Miss Fanny was rushed to the emergency room. She was saved but we had to take on a lot of debt to do it, and we’d appreciate whatever help you can provide.
