Also the day he signed with WB for a feature film and celebrated his first wedding anniversary, he's recorded as having said "This is the best day of my life" before dying of a heart attack at age 46. Just devastating

Yesterday, I looked into Roscoe Arbuckle and his murder trial and it's so insanely tragic to me that a lot of his movies might have survived if it hadn't been for All That

No it is not relevant to my job I just have nothing to do. Working at a film festival and all the ppl I need to respond to my emails are on vacation.

June 19: Late Bloomers (1996) - A basketball coach/maths teacher and a married secretary fall in love. Film about sexuality, small town rumors and acceptance. Amazing performances, precious moments, all in all tho. Didn't love it. 3 ⭐

June 18: Imagine Me & You (2005) - lesbian Romcom that has aged, also because they included a pick up artist adjacent character and focus soooo much on straight ppl. The lesbian romance is so cute tho so. 3 ⭐

June 18: Fire Island (2022) - rewatch of my favourite transformative pride and prejudice adaptation. 4 ⭐

June 15: El Corral (2017) - Argentinian Leopold and Loeb inspired coming of age film. Could have gone a little further than it did. 3 1/2 ⭐

June 12th: Cut (2000) - not gay enough. fun post-scream meta slasher tho so that makes up for it! 4 ⭐

Not a queer movie by all definitions but a queer movie by mine: Crybaby - John Waters' Grease. 5 ⭐

June 9th: Slay - Very cute and fun, definitely a labor of love. Priscilla meets a self-referential from Dusk Till Dawn. 3.5 ⭐

June 9th: The Children's Hour - Devastating. 5 ⭐

☁🦋 @liblikasling.bsky.social · 08/06/2026

June 8th: Sleepaway Camp - Slasher with queer text and subtext; it's divisive and I can see why. Still, despite some unfortunately aged elements, I think this one is a gem (though I get why ppl, especially trans women, might disagree) 3 ⭐

☁🦋 @liblikasling.bsky.social · 08/06/2026

June 7th: Eating Miss Campbell - Meta low budget horror comedy which should be right up my alley but wasn't. I'd classify this as try-hard. Had some standout moments and a few iconic lines inbetween but cannot rly recommend it. 1 1/2 ⭐

☁🦋 @liblikasling.bsky.social · 08/06/2026

June 7th: Ich möchte kein Mann sein - An early Lubitsch with queer subtext (though you can read it as queer text). It was alright and fun enough, though like many silent comedies that aren't physical it hasn't aged great

June 2nd: The Invisible Mother - A lesbian moves back in with her grandparents to help take care of her sick grandma. Once she's there, she grows convinced their house is haunted. 3 ⭐

In honor of pride month, my girlfriend and I are making an effort to mostly watch queer movies this month 📽️ June 1st: Entertaining Mr Sloane (1970) - British black comedy/thriller about a handsome stranger an elderly woman and her repressed gay brother both fall for. 4 ⭐

Saying Eli Roth is one of your favorite directors is like saying Quentin Tarantino is one of your favourite directors but worse.

And like nobody is denying that there are some great movies from the 50s. But the average 50s cash grab is often worse than the average 30s cash grab in multiple ways

Some of us just got obsessed with a random old Hollywood actor and realized that the conservatism of the 1950s is also very evident in 50s cinema, specifically when it comes to roles for women and sexual politics.

☁🦋 @liblikasling.bsky.social · 15/05/2026

There's 50s cinema discourse on film twitter and I think the most INSULTING part of it is that a bunch of ppl are assuming any 50s hater must be a Tarantino head.

Brought to you by Operation Petticoat, unfortunately the only joint movie Tony Curtis and Cary Grant ever did

000

☁🦋 @liblikasling.bsky.social · 11/05/2026

Several later Cary Grant movies have a "who is HE!" scene where some character is in awe of the majesty of Cary Grant and has Cary's story explained to him, it's delightful

I wish Janelle Monáe made good music again.

They could have put disabled actors on that stage and chose not to, instead erasing disability (almost) entirely and once again sticking a fake beard on a woman. It's disgraceful. The disabled people who were exploited by P. T. Barnum deserve better. Disabled ppl today deserve better.

Some of the issues with The Greatest Showman are presumably going to be fixed before they transfer it to London - who knows, maybe they'll even dial down the racism and actually acknowledge that racism exist in the show. But there's no getting away from the fact that they squandered a chance

So many issues I forgot to mention I'm p sure they used AI for some of the posters??

000

Also WHY did they basically make Anne Wheeler a Jezebel caricature in act 1 and then refuse to acknowledge racism exists like hello.

100

There's stuff that's bad in there (mostly bland new songs, uninspired staging, repetitive choreographies, pacing issues... I could go on) but there are also aspects that are downright OFFENSIVE such as erasing disability from the narrative

100

After watching the Greatest Showman Musical I have to say. The haters were right. Gotta hand it to the haters.

Discovered today that wikipedia speedruns are a thing

"every conspiracy theory turned out to be true" is a frankly dangerous rhetoric and I wish ppl would stop saying it.

One of the last times I talked to him, my dad said with complete sincerity: "Did you know that Angela Merkel is Hitler's granddaughter?" He believes Michelle Obama is a trans woman. He believes the "gay agenda" is pushed on poc as ethnic cleansing.

1) obfuscate the actual issue 2) could serve as a gateway towards radicalization 3) y'all don't even know the crazy shit some people believe

As someone who's dad has gone fully off the conspiracy theory deep end, I think ppl ought to be more careful when broadly declaring "wow can't believe every conspiracy theory was TRUE"

I truly wonder how US cinematic history would have developed without half the German/Weimar film industry emigrating

☁🦋 @liblikasling.bsky.social · 03/02/2026

obviously the loss of cinematic talent is among the smaller tragedies of the nazi regime - nonetheless, it is a tragedy

☁🦋 @liblikasling.bsky.social · 03/02/2026

you'll watch a random weimar republic movie and it has some of the most impressive shots you've ever seen in your life
