    I started writing a response, but you know what, I'm sick to fucking death of your inability to have a single conversation about a single fucking movie without resorting to being a complete fucking dick about it. Especially this? This topic you feel warrants going full asshole on??

    i'm sorry. I 'm wound tight this week. Things that seem obvious to me, frustrate me and my inability to put words onto paper. I'm not a good writer.

    Hey, baby doll, have you seen Les Misérables (Ladj Ly, 2019) yet?

    If so, what did you think?

    Someone put up a link on reddit to a database of Russian and Soviet-sphere films that are easily available on youtube or amazon. Some are geoblocked but if you have a VPN you can often get around that. Lots of still available tho.

    https://russianfilmhub.com

    Nice resource.

    Haven't seen it.
    Just because...
    The Fabelmans (Steven Spielberg, 2022) mild
    Petite maman (Céline Sciamma, 2021) mild
    The Banshees of Inisherin (Martin McDonagh, 2022) mild

    The last book I read was...
    The Complete Short Stories by Mark Twain

    It's not an adaptation of Hugo's book. This was France's Academy entry last year (and it won).

    The movie is about cops working the ghetto. Think "Elite Squad," "Rampart," "End of Watch" or "Training Day."

    Just wrote something about Zodiac, and long review short, "the film's focus in its 2nd half smartly remains on Graysmith and his futile, seemingly endless journey into a (sometimes literal) underworld of endless, labyrinthine deadends, and even when Graysmith does seem to make progress, his marriage is still crumbling underneath the crushing weight of his Quixotic obsession with the case, which comes home even closer than before when it seems as though the anonymous killer has begun targeting Graysmith himself with a series of unnerving calls to his home, the same one where his wife and children live, unaware of the threat he has invited into their midst".

    The novel is a masterpiece.

    The 2019 film is... okay.

    I'd like some help finding an article about Spirited Away. I recently rewatched it and remembered an article I read once about its screenplay, which featured a different third act where Zeniba's character is still evil and Chihiro has to go through her haunted house or something like that. I can't find anything like that though, and I'm starting to wonder if I just imagined it. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

    No idea, sorry. That is a good reminder that I should revisit Spirited Away-I haven't seen it in ages.

    Only thing I could find was this https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearn...se_version_of/

    BUt Reddit might be a good place to ask your question.
