Vox Lux only sold 80,000 tickets but everyone who bought one went out and made their own Vox Lux.

On this day, 46 years ago, Dario Argento's "Inferno" (1980) was released in Italy.
After completing filming, Dario Argento screened "Inferno" (1980) to [then] President of 20th Century Fox, Sherry Lansing. While watching the film with him, she grabbed Argento's arm and hung on tightly during every shocking/scary scene in the movie. Argento thought it was a good sign for the movie.
When the film was over, she said to Argento that the movie was "too strong" for the American market. The movie did reasonably well all over the world, but was released only on VHS in the USA. It wasn't released in theaters. Argento was upset by this as it was an important film, which he held close to his heart.

Kristen Stewart's performance in Crimes of the Future is one of the horniest I've ever seen on film.
Rivaled by few. Joaquin Phoenix in Quills (2000) is my contender.

First of a series of "rules" giving advice on academic writing about history of philosophy, which I'll be posting on my blog over the coming days. Hope people will find this useful and interesting! Feedback more than welcome!

If you actually cared about European culture, you’d find some real classical music that sounds good
I heard your voice last night in a dream. Clear and potent, youthful, as it’s always been. And I knew it was you. I knew it in my bones. But was it? Was it you? Or was it just my certainty it was yours? Even right now I can’t recall the sound of it. Yet I was certain it was you.
You don’t strike a deal with the devil and then act all surprised when you realise you have no soul anymore.
Being gay is to live in a state of cognitive dissonance because men are fucking gross yet gay sex is so so so fucking hot.
