My new review of Mariusz Wilczyński's Kill It And Leave This Town is up on Video Librarian. This film serves as an exemplary personal work showcasing the ways in which artists can find solace and relief in their creations. videolibrarian.com/reviews/f…

last winter my friends and I all left our phones at the apartment and went out in nyc on a friday, from like 11am to 4am. all we had was a disposable camera, credit card, and a napkin with some emergency phone numbers written down. we got lost, had to ask for directions, made small talk with strangers, made new friends, went to ten different bars. no joke, it was the best day ever. can't recommend enough. 2nd annual no phone day city crawl will be happening

The two movies dominating film discourse this weekend are a new restoration of a film from 1971 and a 3 hour documentary from Nathan Fielder. What a time to be alive.

watched The Social Reckoning last night and Sorkin straight up depicts January 6th like Nolan did the Fall of Troy. Easily the worst last 15 minutes of a movie i've seen in YEARS
