The new Trump hats say 45-47; a very Queens-coded decision to have a four digit number with hyphen in the middle.

Godard is in something of the position in the world of film that James Joyce was at a considerably later age in the world of literature; that is, he has paralyzed other filmmakers by shaking their confidence (as Joyce did to writers), without ever reaching a large public. (1968)

we don’t talk enough about the Neil Young song where he’s so high and horny he recovers memories of being a salmon

For too long, Los Angeles has treated Hollywood as an inconvenience rather than an asset.
The result: 50,000 jobs lost
When I’m mayor, LA will be a reliable partner to film productions. We’ll staff a real city film office, eliminate fees for smaller productions, simplify permitting, and get rid of ridiculous conditions that stall production.
If you call Film LA, the very first option is to report a production you think should be shut down for not having a permit.
The third option is to try and get a permit. If you don't get your application in my 10am a week before the shoot, they will not process your application. Not 10:05, not 12pm. Must be in by 10am. When you speak to the person at Film LA, they truly sound like they don't even want you to shoot there.
I hope whoever our next mayor is shuts down Film LA and makes it free and easy to get a permit.
LA has the best crews, the best casts, the best weather. It shouldn't be cheaper and easier to fly to Oklahoma and shoot there than it is to shoot at home. It's time to bring filmmaking back to LA.

The greatest of all British filmmakers, Terence Davies, got funding for just eight dramatic features in forty years, went a dozen years without any, five between A Quiet Passion and Benediction, the planned Zweig adaptation The Post Office Girl fell through in his last years.

"the irishman" deliberately breaks verismilitude by having Scorsese and his crew trying to reenact the artifice of their prime gangster movies but running against the friction demonstrated by their age, if you dont get the resulting recursive commentary you don't get the film.

Bam Adebayo scoring 83 is like if the next James Mangold film were the best film of the 21st century.
