It was, of course, Sam Shepard and Jessica Lange. 2559

Megan Abbott @meganabbott.bsky.social · 23/05/2026NYC! Join me on Sun June 7 to see one of the best movies of the 21st century. The identity of the Zodiac killer will, of course, be revealed, live, after the screening. 2244
Megan Abbott @meganabbott.bsky.social · 22/05/2026Thank you, Travis! From you, who knows neo-noir so deeply, that means so much. 110
Megan Abbott @meganabbott.bsky.social · 21/05/2026Me too! I was surprised, revisiting it, how much the political anxieties of its moment seemed present. More like classic noir in that way. 110
Megan Abbott @meganabbott.bsky.social · 21/05/2026Thank you so much! And so glad it held up for you too. (and looks so beautiful) 210

Megan Abbott @meganabbott.bsky.social · 27/04/2026“You aren’t too smart, are you? I like that in a man.” 🔥🔥🔥 I loved writing the essay for the upcoming @criterion.bsky.social 4K restoration of Lawrence Kasdan’s BODY HEAT (1981). Few neo-noirs are as whipsmart, visually lush & incendiary than this one. www.criterion.com/films/32141-... 56511
