Our Lee Chang-dong retrospective kicks off today @InRO. Become a paid subscriber to read brand-new essays on each of Lee's feature films ahead of the streaming release of Possible Love. First up: Tyler Thier on GREEN FISH (1997). api.omarshehata.me/substack-proxy…
@maddiewhittle i'm curious if you think there is such a thing as "pure cinema" then. It's sort of unrelated, but it's such a hack critic term and I don't have any real criteria. this made me think of it again.
realizing how much more difficult online scholarly research is when you're not associated with a university anymore...
Chris Cassingham retweeted
It is not anti-art to harbor a longing to engage w what interests you rather than what you, as a film critic, have a professional/financial incentive to write about. talking about the movie on this website is labor for us, writing about the movie is labor, GET MORE MARXIST NOW!!!
The latest @InRO newsletter has, as usual, new reviews, interviews, and festival coverage, plus: a special announcement of new retrospective essays on the films of Lee Chang-dong. api.omarshehata.me/substack-proxy…
New @InRO newsletter coming your way in an hour
@okaypompeii oh, an excellent choice
once again prepping for a filmmaker interview and feeling like I have, conservatively, about three coherent questions to ask.
So I'm actually going to write a book proposal...
@DaniellaMazzio even harder than a film you feel nothing about?
@thescrewballgrl @judysquirrels was gonna say yesterday
"Oh my god I loooove ________, they're so consistent!"
let's start with humanity and a sense of humor and a little bit of perversion
What quality do you value the most in a film director? Trying to get a gauge on what many cinephiles value the most these days.
Caesar salad straight from the mixing bowl dinner and a Diet Coke
No shit
Rejoice. KEN RUSSELL’S THE DEVILS is here to stay. Experience the uncensored director’s cut only in theaters: thedevils.movie
anyways, support independent writing like @InRO's on the platform that cannot be named here
strange situation defector.com/nobody-wants-t…
Just letting you all know that I'm making a can vs. capable joke in Friday's @InRO newsletter. I'm not saying its amazing -- but it's there.
evergreen
do not worship at the altar of your own taste…as a critic your job is being a writer…you are not an academic you are not a programmer…write something worth reading
