Southern Drug Kingpin – Arkansas (2020)
Billy Madison was Adam Sandler’s most vital film, but Happy Gilmore was his most polished. In fact, Billy Madison nailed Sandler’s comic persona so purely and perfectly that it was almost a dead end, forcing Sandler to scramble for ways to reinvent and reimagine his toddler persona over his next few films. Billy Madison was […]
As I watched David Fincher’s latest film, Mank, my main feeling was one of wanting to like the film more than I actually did. I mean, really, the film sounds like it was specifically made to appeal to me. It’s a film about the Golden Age of Hollywood, which is an era that has always […]

İçimde hangi atam konuşuyor? Hem aklımda hem de bedenimde, aynı anda ayrılamam. Bu yüzden tek kişi olamıyorum. Kendimi aynı anda sayısız şey olarak hissedebiliyorum. Fazla büyük usta kalmadı. Zamanımızın gerçek kötülüğü budur. Kalbin yolları gölgelerle kaplanmış. Yararsız görünen seslere kulak vermeliyiz. Okul duvarları, asfalt ve refah reklamlarının uzun kanalizasyon boruları ile dolu beyinlere, böceklerin vızıltıları […]
