Paul Scofield in Mel Gibson’s HAMLET doesn’t need any special effects to turn in a thoroughly grim, otherworldly effect as the ghost. So many other versions resort of thunder or CGI glow…Scofield just needs his voice.

I mean, partly that’s because Trump says about 10,000 times more outrageous trash than any other similarly prominent politician, and it’s just not possible to cover it all as intensely as one of Clinton’s uglier gaffes.

why am I receiving a truckload of screeners in the mail *on the day* when I’m actually voting in the NYFCC awards instead of a week or so earlier, do they not want their movies to get all the awards consideration they can
There must be some space retained around sacred things. Just a little bit is enough. We can still behold. We can still touch. We can still partake. But we must not tell ourselves it’s just another place to hang our clothes. simchafisher.com/2023/11/21/wha…

"The bishops with whom I have spoken are almost universally saddened by his reckless attacks on the Holy Father. None expressed any reservations about the decision to remove Strickland. It had to be done." @MichaelSWinters from #USCCB in Baltimore ncronline.org/opinion/ncr-vo…
The US bishops have voted to reapprove the Ad Hoc Committee Against Racism for two years, in view of a permanent place in the structure of the episcopal conference. Also voted for retired Aux Joseph Perry to continue as chair. 11 bishops voted against reauthorization. #USCCB23

In my homily today, I touched on grotesque antisemitic distortions of Matthew’s Gospel, the barbaric Hamas terror attack on Israel, the plight of Palestinians as well as Israelis, and the meaning of the all-important wedding garment. decentfilms.com/blog/homily-068

@DecentFilms I happened to watch the Green Knight with my wife this weekend because it is available on prime. Your writeup on it is truly great. Provides greater context to the film, insightful Christian critique, while avoiding a tone of base moralistic contempt.
This is my mom's favorite episode
📺CBS Primetime, December 8, 1952: — On ‘I Love Lucy,’ Lucy learns that she is expecting a child (CBS censors would not allow the word ‘pregnant’ to be spoken by any of the actors during the episode)

I don’t believe in “guilty” pleasures. So enjoying, shamelessly, “The Glass Bottom Boat” on @tcm, a funny movie I first saw at age 7, with my beloved mother, at Radio City Music Hall. And before you give me an argument, look at the last three qualifying facts in that sentence.
We didn’t really survive it, and neither did the world.
i was only six at the time, so i don't remember it, but how did you gen x people survive bush v. gore? i mean i think about it decades later and i get mad, you all LIVED through it.
Paul Scofield in Mel Gibson’s HAMLET doesn’t need any special effects to turn in a thoroughly grim, otherworldly effect as the ghost. So many other versions resort of thunder or CGI glow…Scofield just needs his voice.
A young gentile develops a craving for fish with sour cream and onions in the delightful cartoon THE GOY AND THE HERRING.
@DecentFilms @jasonopus @mattzollerseitz @ebertvoices That's one thing I've loved about watching more Hong Kong movies from the 80s and 90s in the past couple of years. Sammo Hung could kick anybody's butt, but he often wore unflattering suits and played scaredy cats who got beat up in comical ways.
@DecentFilms @mattzollerseitz I recall Jackie Chan looking scared and overwhelmed in some of his films.
@DecentFilms @mattzollerseitz I don’t know that you’d call them action movies, but Hitchcock’s man-on-the-run films always featured fairly ordinary people forced to cope with extraordinary circumstances (along with their own fear and foul-ups; Cary Grant’s ad man turned international spy is the best.
@mattzollerseitz I have issues with the Mission Impossible movies but that was something Brad Bird brought in with Ghost Protocol - Renner and Cruise (at times) being shocked that the crazy they are doing actually worked. Counterpoint though: John Wick.
@kitstolz Scared. Like Indiana Jones on the hood of the truck when the hood ornament bends
