Either might get away with it on their own, but the two together? Just looks naff

Regardless of whether or not it's awful, perhaps Digger bombed because audiences perceive both Cruise and Iñárritu as naff.

Great, now we have to reimagine the League of Extraordinary Arthouse Characters movie universe as an interactive Red Desert VR experience. A digital Westworld for mid-century alienation.. a real-life (virtual) Marienbad without the jokes

I hope Jack Haven knows that even one of the all-time greats, Bette Davis, once had to advertise to get people to hire her. That context was very different but also... not. In 1962 the industry was in flux, society was changing and values were messed up. Talent that should've been respected was not.
Scan of a small print ad with a headshot of Bette Davis in the corner of it. Heading reads: Situation Wanted, Women Artists. Body of ad reads: Mother of 3 - 10, 11 & 15 - divorcee. American. Thirty years experience as an actress in motion pictures. Mobile still and more affable than rumour would have it. Wants steady employment in Hollywood. (Has had Broadway.) Bette Davis, c/o Martin Baum, G.A.C. References upon request. Handwritten text at the bottom of the scan says: Variety [?], 1962, 9-24-1962. The page number is 98.

"Cameraphone moviemaking is rarely considered a hobby. It’s too casual! But add a selfie stick into the picture and the cameraphone hobbyist begins to take shape. Her stick wags and probes with purpose; its purpose is to wag and probe. The hobbyist has found her horse."
