Somebody needs to be the PTA to his Altman or the Del Toro to his Friedkin and direct on set for him while he's on Zoom.

 

Kids and I watched Spy Kids 3 last night and childhood Glen Powell showed up.

 

good director pairing

 

Came to say this

 

Who are they gonna cast as Thiel

 

Aftersun
Drive My Car
Memoria
Pacifiction
The Zone of Interest

 

Need one of the local art houses to screen this asap

 

Is no one else going to give their five?

 

Oh, uhh

We're All Going to the World's Fair
I Saw the TV Glow
Everything Everywhere All At Once
Turning Red
Past Lives

I think my list is maybe a little biased, just a tiny bit

 

Drive My Car
Pacifiction
Memoria
Zone of Interest
Aftersun

 

Happy 20th Anniversary to Collateral!!

 

Pacifiction is a little bit more obscure but they do really stand out among the crowd. Afire and The Fabelmans are close.

 

The top 3 made my top 20 of all time, Saint Omer would be next after Aftersun. After watching Afire I thought I liked Transit more but I saved the poem from it on my phone and think about it a lot

The Asra

Every day so lovely, shining,
up and down, the Sultan’s daughter
walked at evening by the water,
where the white fountain splashes.

Every day the young slave stood
by the water, in the evening,
where the white fountain splashes,
each day growing pale and paler.

Then the princess came one evening,
quickly speaking to him, softly,
‘Your true name – I wish to know it,
your true homeland and your nation.’

And the slave said, ‘I am called
Mahomet, I am from Yemen,
and my tribe, it is the Asra,
who die, when they love.’

Heinrich Heine

 

Transit is definitely his best film but he has been on a really amazing run since Jerichow.
