The Duellists would be impressive as someone's last film, but it's Ridley Scott's first. Finally got to see Akira in Imax. Patlabor 2 is good, but a lot like reading a very dense book. And Watch Out, We're Mad is a gem I didn't know existed. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched #FilmSky

The Funny Pages exhibition is a genuine labor of love. Indiana has so much major creative ties to the comic industry that is quite often overlooked. So many people have come together to help make this happen. I hope you guys will consider coming October 2nd - October 31.
