Really must be quite depressing to be a serious actor & spend most of your time being forced into silly content gimmicks. Just endlessly banal shtick. Can only applaud Seydoux for refusing to eat a stale croissant for Instagram giggles

I've always wondered about the white subway tile that's used so extensively in Jarman's set design; I interviewed Mark Kermode about the 'Devils' re-release, and this is what he told me:

Trauma recovery is going to ask us to have high standards & strong boundaries-- which can be rough for survivors who have been conditioned to believe we deserve neither.
Turns out we're going to have to start before we believe the new thing. Lucky us.

AI is more and more overtly acting like a mafiosi shakedown of the rest of the economy + governments: "See, we made agents. Wouldn't want the agents to ...trouble... you, right? Well give us more money then."

Unlike most thinkers of his day Marx knew the real symbolic power and meaning of architecture. each building makes legible political and material forces and relationships within class societies. When they burn something else always burns too

A lot of ppl misunderstand this: commodity fetishism refers to a phenomenon in which the value of products on the market appears as a property inherent to them obscuring the social relations which actually produced it and makes people sexually aroused and cum at the thought of it

Conservatives complain about the BIG STATE but they don't hate the state. They just hate when the state is used to help people, especially the poor & vulnerable.
But when the state protects assets, builds prisons, arms cops, rescues banks & enforces rent, they love the state.

Talk about a truly hidden gem! Sandra Hullerโs feature debut and already such assuredness. Based on the same possession case as Exorcism of Emily Rose but done in a cinema verite style thatโs far more effective and harrowing. No frills, or genre staples, but filled with anxiety.
