I presented Chris Stuckmann’s SHELBY OAKS at its Toronto premiere last night and hosted the Q&A after. I’m so proud of what Chris has accomplished - the film is a blast and a reminder of what’s possible with a YouTube channel and a dream. See it in theaters October 24!

this little moment in SINNERS has been on my mind since opening night. these 3 notes in sync with the match break the veil between film and audience. it plays so well into the film’s theme of music being a transcendent and spiritual voice in the world. incredible.

Spent some time with @captaindisillusion.bsky.social and he’s the rare mix of being a real, genuinely nice person who just happens to also be insanely talented - but without the silver makeup, I can’t be sure it was actually him.

THE FINAL RECKONING is a mess. Overloaded with plot, oddly paced, and the score is the weakest in the franchise - but the set pieces hit hard. There’s an underwater scene that rivals THE ABYSS. I didn't like the film, but I really loved parts of it.

You can see SINNERS in any format you want… as long as it’s 1.43:1 70mm IMAX film projection.

I just got a message from Dean Cundey’s wife saying that Nancy Meyers sent them my latest video about The Parent Trap, and they loved it. Dean shot every movie that made me fall in love with filmmaking. I think I should just retire now. 🥲

If you saw PRESENCE over the weekend and want to learn more about how Soderbergh shot it, I made a video just for you. If you haven’t seen it yet, this might just push you over the edge to grab a ticket. watch: youtu.be/FszVG9DbaJs

They should release THE BRUTALIST on VHS so you have to get up and switch tapes at the intermission.

How can we have meaningful conversations about AI in filmmaking when we’re all in the middle of becoming professional colorists? Let’s not change careers so quickly - we were just starting to get the hang of it.

DEN OF THIEVES: PANTERA - Calling this a “throwback” is dismissive. It’s what action films should be today. A popcorn AND hot dog movie that proves DVD bin concepts can be elevated to greatness with the right crew. Gerard Butler is Tom Cruise for guys that eat pretzels.

NOSFERATU - Slow horror on fast forward. A throwback to classic horror, but weighed down by modern pitfalls. It kept rushing to nowhere, with jump scares that clashed with the aesthetic and overshadowed strong performances from Depp and Skarsgård. I tried to love this. It's 100% my shit. Damn.

My adaptation of NOSFERATU would be a John Hughes style comedy called Ships, Coffins and Carriages.

Watching THE BRUTALIST feels like uncovering something we thought was lost forever, and seeing it feels almost unreal. The whole time, I kept thinking, ‘I thought we forgot how to do this…’

we need more modern cinematographers to pop off as hard as dean cundy did shooting THE PARENT TRAP in 1998.

I needed a cold, slick spy thriller this winter, and THE AGENCY is exactly that. It feels like the show Fincher might’ve made after MINDHUNTER, but Joe Wright (Hanna, Darkest Hour) helmed the first episode - insane cast, stylish as hell, and if it keeps this up, we might have an all-timer.

NUTCRACKERS is a solid “7-Day-Rental” holiday movie to watch in pajamas on a weekday afternoon. @benstiller.redhour.com is great, it’s shot on film (rich colors, great grain), and the kids shine for being refreshingly unpretentious. Weird, fun, and maybe my favorite David Gordon Green film.

BETTER MAN - One of the finer films from the recent musical biopic run, but I couldn’t help but think about how the most insane aspect of Robbie Williams’ story is that it ends with him telling it as a CGI monkey. It might not have better songs, but it’s a far better musical than WICKED.

Don’t just suggest a film for your friend to watch - buy them an actual ticket with a showtime. Make them mess up their whole schedule and skip work. Gift them the joy of a Wednesday matinee. And don’t offer to join. A true cinephile forces the hand.
