BLOOD SIMPLE never becomes any less towering even after who knows how many rewatches. A debut every bit as deep and sophisticated and just fucking dialed in as CITIZEN KANE.

EDEN really gripped me. You got pretty people (a few very naked!) doing backstabby Lord of the Flies shit in the Galapagos and Ron Howard pushing against good taste in his unwinking (though often sickeningly funny) presentation of some primo cinematic melodrama.

Went to the fucking Mall of America at 10 in the goddamn AM to see AMERICANA (liked it)

Hoping Thieves gains acolytes the way California Split has in recent years
[THIEVES LIKE US] In [Keith Carradine's] bit role in MCCABE, he made the audience yield to him so completely that his sequence almost threw the movie out of whack; he makes us yield here for the entire film. (1974)

What was supposed to be a busy and lively stay at the cabin ended up being just us and low-key, but I got in some good lazing.

Much as I love the whole cast of TRAFFIC, Erika Christiansen should have been the Oscar winner. Most credible depiction of being high ever?

This is the stuff
Pulp, with its fìve-and-dime myths, can take a stronger hold on people’s imaginations than art, because it doesn’t affect the conscious imagination, the way a great novel does, but the private, hidden imagination, the primitive fantasy life. (1973)

Pumped for a big fat doorstopper from ANTHONY NEIL SMITH (one set in my own neighborhood to boot)

New LYNN KOSTOFF novel THE LENGTH OF DAYS arrived today

Was just watching SIN CITY the other day and died at the little chuckle MADSEN gives the kid when BRUCE WILLIS tells her to run. “Heh-heh, he’s a crazy man.” Perfect.

Hadn’t seen BULLY in so long and it rocks just as hard as I recalled. LARRY CLARK’s best. Hilarious and sickening, just masterfully shot w such a terrific soundtrack beautifully utilized (gonna be listening to that climactic Fatboy Slim piece on repeat for *awhile*), insane cast.

Terrific movie
Out now from @FilmsRadiance (and on sale): I’m absolutely THRILLED to provide the commentary track for Jacques Deray’s bleak, brilliant SYMPHONY FOR A MASSACRE, one of the *greatest* caper/double-cross noirs ever made. radiancefilms.co.uk/products…
