Movies

I forgot how much I love this movie. Our first watch with the new Criterion Channel subscription.

You are home.

From Canadian comic book genius Jeff Lemire:

As many of you who follow my work know, I am a massive fan of David Lynch, who passed away this week. It’s hard to say anything meaningful about Lynch’s life and work that hasn’t been said a thousand times before, or in the many wonderful tributes that poured in this past week. But, I just wanted to say that no other artist, in any medium, has meant as much to my work, or my life as David Lynch.

It’s taken a few days for the reality of living in a world without David Lynch to start to sink in. Obviously his work will live on, and continue to inspire and befuddle millions, but just knowing he isn’t still out there dreaming up new mysteries is hard to believe.

I didn’t know him, but his work meant so much to me that I can’t possibly express it here. He was a singular artist, and in a world where “content creators” and “IP” are all that matters, I doubt we will ever see another filmmaker or storyteller like him.

Rest In Peace David Lynch. Thank you for inspiring me to become an artist, and for showing me the importance of focusing on the joy of doing the work itself, not what may come from it.

See you in the trees.

-Jeff
 
Catch it before the ongoing feud probably leaves Blake Lively (and Ryan Reynolds) career in the gutter.

EDIT: For those unaware she's currently in a legal/public feud with Justin Baldoni and more and more it's making her look like an awful human being, and Ryan Reynolds by association.
Yeah, i remember some clip of her being real douchy in an interview during the "It Ends With Us" promo with more stories popping up of that being who she really is.

Also, Ryan Reynolds is annoying. He's like The Rock, he plays the same character in everything.

I agree. Same sardonic character and it's getting pretty old. Gosling is totally winning the battle of Canadian Ryans. If not simply because Drive was a fantastic movie.
 
Any of you all into Radiance Films as a label? I have really been loving most of what they've put out these last couple of years.
I only have one so far which was a birthday present last year. There's been a few i've been tempted by but there's so many releases every month lol

I've committed to a subscription of all their releases for this year through June. They've got a pretty intriguing line-up so far planned. There seem to be so many good UK-based children-of-Criterion labels right now.
