Rabbits and posters

September 15, 2003

Horked from Metafilter, but high on the cool factor: MagicGallery.com, a collection of vintage magician posters from 1890 to 1930. Those who enjoyed a certain novel should make sure to view this poster.

Nosferatu, 2024 - ★★★½

The vision is top-notch; reframing the relationship between Ellen and Orlok is great and brings substantially more weight to the conclusion. However, the relationship between Ellen and poor Thomas Hutter loses weight as a result; Hoult’s performance was good but there just wasn’t enough there to make the choices meaningful. I also think Eggers gave up […]
Trenque Lauquen, 2022 - ★★★★★

Dheepan, 2015 - ★★★½

Fascinating. As a signpost to the world’s likely direction, it’s a perfect 2025 movie. Strong acting, too. Tonally it takes a risk that mostly pays off; I didn’t read the third act as any kind of wish fulfillment. More of a wish denied, and in the end Sivadhasan is still a flawed tired sad human […]
Coens Ranked

But I saw the last one the other night (A Serious Man) and the list maker in me will not be otherwise appeased.Currently not including solo movies from either brother.I […]
