FOR THE NIGHT CROWD: we published a new essay on the @InRO Substack today, on Lisandro Alonso's revolutionary debut feature "La Libertad" and its relationship to his unexpected follow-up "Double Freedom." inreviewonline.substack.com/p/traveling-in…
New on the @InRO Substack: Padaí Ó Maolchalann on Lisandro Alonso's first feature "La Libertad" which -- maybe -- ignited a movement, and prompted his reassessment in this year's follow-up, "La Libertad Doble". Subscribe to the Substack to read! open.substack.com/pub/inreviewon…
i keep coming back to this. CAA et al. have teams dedicated to selling their artists on this stuff. same as NFTs. they view new tech the same way they view slapping a face on a wheaties box. they're telling you it's "important" bc it makes quick $ for them. you shouldn't listen
This appears to be the work of Scorsese's manager Rick Yorn and his ex-agent Mike Ovitz (who was Hollywood's most powerful agent in the late 80s and early 90s before a disastrous stint as Disney President) x.com/RichardLNewby3…
That introduction of Ruby in the door frame is perfect. It's the film's first declaration of Ruby's ambiguity -- which Jones calibrates. It's a film about rigid socioeconomic boundaries. In contrapposto, Ruby embodies fluidity. As expected, however, she'll be punished for it.
Masterpiece. I've got a Jennifer Jones essay coming sometime soon...inclusive of this film
Ruby Gentry (King Vidor, 1952)
Tribeca starts tomorrow. There's only one film I implore you to see, and that's Rob Rice's PONDEROSA. I spoke with him a few weeks ago about the film, the suburbs, and the breakdown of community in 21st-Century life. open.substack.com/pub/chriscassi…
Michigan holds nearly 20% of the world’s fresh surface water, a sacred trust we are obligated to protect for future generations. That is not negotiable. So let me be blunt: Governor Whitmer smiling for photos with Sam Altman while handing over Michigan’s water and energy to his data centers is a betrayal of every family that depends on these resources. This isn’t economic development, it’s a sweetheart deal for a Silicon Valley billionaire at Michigan taxpayers’ expense. AI data centers consume millions of gallons of water and massive amounts of electricity. Who pays the price? Michigan families, farmers, and communities. Who pockets the profits? Out-of-state tech oligarchs who will never have to live with the consequences. I am running for Congress because Michigan’s water, land, and energy belong to the people of Michigan, not to the billionaire class and not to politicians who roll out the red carpet for them. We will not subsidize the exploitation of our most precious natural resources so the ultra-wealthy can grow even richer. Enough. Michigan is not for sale.
God forbid we make his answer more readable.
lol why aren't people talking about this more. parsons is really tapped in to insane divorced guy energy collider.com/backrooms-movi…

Girls rewatch over. starting Mad Men for the first time.

MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE is now tracking to bomb this coming weekend. Its pre-sales pace has been weak and never really improved. It’s now on track for a $27M–$35M domestic opening on $170M+ budget.
hard to articulate how profound "Nuestra Señora de Paris" is to watch.
Watching a late Teo Hernandez film is how I imagine it feels to goon. In this essay I will --

Had a nice long chat with my friend Rob Rice on his new film "Ponderosa", the suburbs, paranoid masculinity, and the breakdown of language. It's a long one, I hope you enjoy! open.substack.com/pub/chriscassi…
