In honor of the 50th anniversary of its release this month, we're revisiting our conversation on THE CONVERSATION, looking at the film through the lens of surveillance & seclusion, Gene Hackman and Walter Murch, Catholic guilt and cool jazz. brightwalldarkroom.com/2024/04/27/rew…
"MIRACLE MILE is about many things — romance and Los Angeles and the looming threat of nuclear devastation at the close of the Cold War — but also, obsessively, it’s about marking the passage of time." brightwalldarkroom.com/2019/08/27/mir…
"The further we get from AMERICAN PSYCHO’s release, the closer we get to the world it depicted. The satire becomes more pointed, but instead of being a fun indictment of the ‘80s, it becomes an unsettling reflection of the way we live now." brightwalldarkroom.com/2019/06/14/pat…
Lotta great American movies in 1999, but I wanted to write about one that I don’t think is as widely appreciated as it should be: Go, the second feature from Doug Liman. rogerebert.com/mzs/speed-kill…
It’s Al Pacino’s birthday so obviously I need to make it about me. Reposting my piece about one of my favorite Pacino flicks, Scarecrow.

"RATCATCHER marks the beginning of a fascination that one of our greatest working directors has with inaction as a force propelling us to understand ourselves & the world around us." brightwalldarkroom.com/2024/04/22/the…

Fall semester 2024 I am teaching a course I have not taught before. It's a seminar for First Year students at NYU. The title: "The figure of the journalist in Hollywood film." Feel free to send me your favorite journalism movies. Especially any you think I may not know about.
Happy 38th b-day to Hal Ashby's 8 MILLION WAYS TO DIE. It's a bruised & boozed minor masterpiece of sleaze & salvation, not in spite of its recklessly freewheeling pub crawl through neo-noir's genre tics, but *because* of it. I wrote about it for @BWDR: brightwalldarkroom.com/2022/11/30/i-l…
"John Boorman's POINT BLANK is inexplicably intricate and enigmatic, cool and cryptic, a relentlessly modern film about a relentlessly brutal man with single-minded ambitions." brightwalldarkroom.com/2023/08/11/tha…
"RAISING ARIZONA is a messy, ridiculous love story and, despite the fact that it’s a film where a person literally explodes, feels honest about romance in a way I'd never really seen before." brightwalldarkroom.com/2016/04/04/far…

25 years ago today eXistenZ was released! Read @eccantwell’s reflections in our 1999 issue: “Watching eXistenZ, I can’t help but be envious of this dystopia. Our corporate overlords would never let tech be this fleshy, this sexy, this corporeal.” brightwalldarkroom.com/2024/04/08/a-g…

Fall semester 2024 I am teaching a course I have not taught before. It's a seminar for First Year students at NYU. The title: "The figure of the journalist in Hollywood film." Feel free to send me your favorite journalism movies. Especially any you think I may not know about.

Happy 38th b-day to Hal Ashby's 8 MILLION WAYS TO DIE. It's a bruised & boozed minor masterpiece of sleaze & salvation, not in spite of its recklessly freewheeling pub crawl through neo-noir's genre tics, but *because* of it. I wrote about it for @BWDR: brightwalldarkroom.com/2022/11/30/i-l…
@BWDR Also the film that articulates the most important logical impasse of the late 20th C. "Mean to say, if'n I freeze, I can't rightly drop. And if'n I drop, I'm a-gonna be in motion."
One thing that rocks about this movie is Jude Law had a vocal coach to get him to sound like a Torontonian
25 years ago today eXistenZ was released! Read @eccantwell’s reflections in our 1999 issue: “Watching eXistenZ, I can’t help but be envious of this dystopia. Our corporate overlords would never let tech be this fleshy, this sexy, this corporeal.” brightwalldarkroom.com/2024/04/08/a-g…
@robbelushi the first few moments always get me amped - beautiful opening image, perfect font, & maybe the most cinematic song of all time
when i start THE NICE GUYS i start laughing in anticipation as the production titles scroll by.

I can’t overstate the impact Lynne Ramsay’s films have had on me — very grateful to have had the opportunity to *start* unravelling her dynamic work. Thank you @everybody_cares and @franhoepfner for your help with the piece, and for pairing it with incredible art by @bturnerinfo
