#ElvisMovie is out tmrw. Paul calls it "Baz's Malc #ElvisMovie is out tmrw. Paul calls it "Baz's Malcolm X." "Elvis...[chooses] to engage in pure exhibitionism for its own sake... there’s an intensity to the vision here that feels all too lacking in contemporary blockbusters of this size and scale." — With Dispatch 5, our #Tribeca coverage concludes. Visit the link in our bio for takes on #LakotaNationVsUnitedStates, #InHerName, #January, and #MyNameIsAndrea. Bylines: Luke, Daniel, Mitch, & @ayeen.forootan — Peter Strickland's latest, #FluxGourmet, is decidedly not great. "Flux Gourmet’s stiff performance art world satire could use a push past its gross-out faux extremity into something actually horrific." — @krsmello — #film #filmreviews #filmcritics #filmcriticism #filmcommunity #cinema #cinephile #cinephilecommunity #tribecafilmfestival #filmfestivals
We liked Rainer Kohlberger's #AnsweringTheSun so m We liked Rainer Kohlberger's #AnsweringTheSun so much that we decided to sit down and chat about his latest effort, the conceptual framework of his filmography, influences on films, and more! Check out the full interview at the link in bio. — Mohammad Rasoulof's #AManOfIntegrity has finally gotten a US release, and @igorfshman couldn't be happier: "Ostensibly simple foundations ... are molded into something much more profound in Rasolouf’s hands..." — And our penultimate May music roundup, including #JackHarlow, #TheSmile, #BlackStar, and more. — #film #filmreviews #filmcriticism #filmcritics #filmcommunity #cinema #cinephile #cinephilecommunity #albums #newreleases #albumreviews #musicreviews #experimental
In honor of #PaulMcCartney80 over the weekend, we' In honor of #PaulMcCartney80 over the weekend, we've got a Brendan essay on Sgt. Pepper's, its psychedelic exploration of childhood, and the ultimate question: "were [the Beatles] guiding culture or were they simply reflections of it?" — #TribecaFilmFestival may have wrapped yesterday, but we still have a little more coverage in it. Today's dispatch includes thoughts on Jon-Sesrie Guff's #AfterSherman, Alex Thompson's #Rounding, Rebeca Huntt's #Beba & more! One more dispatch coming this week! — #TheWitch2 is a little overdone, but still a clinic on what American blockbuster cinema could be. — #movie #movies #moviereviews #film #filmreviews #filmcritics #filmcriticism #filmcommunity #cinema #cinephile #cinephilecommunity #tribeca
#Pixar's latest, inevitable #ToyStory entry is her #Pixar's latest, inevitable #ToyStory entry is here. @stevenwarner1980 says its no better or worse than the studio's recent spate of mid films: "Works best in its first half...[which] feels novel in comparison to the tired clichés peddled in [its] back-half." — Meanwhile, #Spiderhead is more than a disappointment. "...the end result is as flavorless as any dull, A24-branded, allegedly “elevated” genre fare. It’s pretty. It’s sometimes wryly funny. It’s trite." @colonelmortimer — "Jerry and Marge Go Large isn’t much for challenging viewers, but for the inclined, it’s quite successful at working its way into the heart’s soft spots with a warm touch and appealing sincerity." says @ayeen.forootan on #JerryAndMargeGoLarge — And it wouldn't be a Friday without #KickingTheCanon.

We had a lot of content yesterday, so our #kicking We had a lot of content yesterday, so our #kickingthecanon comes a day late. But it's worth it. Ryan talks Stanley Kubrick's Lolita in honor of the film's 60th anniversary yesterday: "[Holds a] quietly pivotal place in [Kubrick's] oeuvre." — #MadGod is coming to @Shudder later this week. @morrisycy took on @madphilg's beautiful work a while back: "Tippett’s labor of love [offers] nothing less than a ravishing sensory experience of lurid phantasmagoria" — Our first album roundup for May '22 has arrived and features takes on excellent new records from @saythename_17 and @otobokebeaver, and more mixed-pro offerings from #ArcadeFire, #LiamGallagher, & @mxmtoon. — #movie #movies #moviereviews #film #filmreviews #filmcritics #filmcriticism #filmcommunity #cinema #cinephile #cinephilecommunity #newreleases #lolita #albumreviews #musicreviews
In honor of the 25th anniversary this month of Bru In honor of the 25th anniversary this month of Bruno Dumont's feature debut, La vie de Jésus, @1xferokay goes long on the director's use of performance: "Dumont isn’t making inroads in some sort of nouveau school of acting; he’s creating a world." — Paul also dug into #GoodLuckToYouLeoGrande for #Tribeca, which comes out Friday. — Next up is @mollyadams2408 with great things to say for #Tahara from #OliviaPeace. — And finally, more #Tribeca coverage, with thoughts on #FamilyDinner (Daniel), #GodsTime (@stevenwarner1980), #LynchOz (Christopher), and #WeMightAsWellBeDead (also Daniel).

The final essay in our #ClintEastwood retro has ar The final essay in our #ClintEastwood retro has arrived, this one discussing Clint's unique position in (cinematic) history's relentless march into the future. "[Eastwood] is one of those immovable boulders from the hallowed halls of the 20th century." — #Moneyboys is streaming on #Mubi tomorrow. @morrisycy was... disappointed: "Moneyboys looks good to the eye but sees nothing new, regurgitating... the more inspired reveries of erotic ennui that directors like Tsai Ming-liang effortlessly dream up." — And @krsmello was unimpressed with #Offseason as well, "when things come to a head and Keating has to break tension with a scare, he gives in to some bad aesthetic impulses." — #movie #movies #moviereviews #film #filmreviews #filmcritics #filmcriticism #filmcommunity #cinema #cinephile #cinephilecommunity
We've reached the penultimate essay in our #ClintE We've reached the penultimate essay in our #ClintEastwood retro, which finds Mitch using Jersey Boys to interrogate "the full scope of the machine that made [Eastwood] and Valli’s cultural ascendancy possible...a grander, generational condemnation." — #TheRighteous is coming out on Arrow on Friday. @stevenwarner1980 covered it back during #FantasiaFest, so you can check out his thoughts before watching. — Meanwhile @colonelmortimer is upset about the lack of dino action in #jurassicworlddominion. — #movie #movies #moviereviews #film #filmreviews #filmcritics #filmcriticism #filmcommunity #cinema #cinephile #cinephilecommunity
