‘Nomadland’ Trailer: Chloé Zhao and Frances McDormand Deliver One of 2020’s Best Films
A weird one… I wrote about RECREATION already — this Keystone park film didn’t seem much different from a half-dozen others, and it survives in a form most uneven and considerably more ragged than most. As so often at Keystone, Chaplin makes valuable discoveries in one short (THE FACE ON THE BARROOM FLOOR) only to […]
The Sunday Intertitle: Charlie as Chaplin or Chaplin as Charlie?
In 1968, there were dreamers, and Giorgio Rosa wasn’t the only one, but he’s the man we’re going follow today, all the way to Rose Island. Actually, in 1968 there was no Rose Island as Giorgio (Elio Germano) hadn’t built it yet. But he’s about to. He’s an engineer, a creator, and a thinker. And […]
Éric Rohmer 1971’de kendisiyle yapılan bir röportajda¹, “Filmlerim tamamen kurgu eserlerdir, sosyolog olduğumu iddia etmiyorum (…) Sadece kendim icat ettiğim belirli vakaları alıyorum, bunlar bilimsel değildir, hayal ürünüdürler” der. Ancak en fantastik olanından en korkunç olanına kadar her film, içinde mutlaka toplumsal bir gerçeklik barındırır. Film ile izleyici arasında bağ kuran da bu gerçeğe yakın…

I’m still seeing blurry from crying because I felt that I related to Allen Ginsberg’s soul. I am not sure that I am a fan of his poetry style, but I understood generally, and more than Leaves of Grass for that matter, what he was talking about because I knew “the lingo” and I […]

TV Binge: Detective Chinatown (唐人街探案, 2020)
This wasn’t an easy year to make a first feature, but there was no shortage of debuts worthy of celebration.
Actually watching this movie turned out to be something of an adventure. I had it on a streaming service, but when I paused it about halfway through and then returned to it, it was gone. (Evidently the streaming service happened by coincidence to drop it from its service at just that time.) That necessitated finding […]
I think the first mention of this title was in a television broadcast of some kind. I then found it on Netflix and decided why not. At least I knew I was not in for a series. And because I am a very sensitive person, I could not help, actually cry, twice while viewing […]
Since I started seeing advertising for this title, I have been wanting to see it. I just love a magical, witchy story. Signing up for HBOMax be damned; besides, I could probably get away with a week free and cancel before the week is up. It’s part of my new attitude: I can’t take my money with […]
Better than expected , but then again, I love this genre of movie: end-of-the-world, small guy versus big government. And who could resist yummy Justin Timberlake? A quick research and development revealed Johnny Galecki – another known name – was in this movie also, though I can’t remember his character. Additionally, Matt Bomer was […]

Tag Lines: “Little did this desperate, out of work actor know when he secretly auditioned for a female role that he’d become the hottest star on television. Not even the girl he’s […]
“It’s a beautiful city Howard, isn’t it? I’d like to come here on our honeymoon.” – Eunice Burns (Madeline Kahn), What’s Up, Doc? *** Not Eunice Burns! That beautiful city that Eunice Burns is talking about is, indeed, one of the most inspiring places in the United States: San Francisco. It might inspire you for […]
