Given these Janus restorations have never seen fit to play anywhere near me, I'll have to wait to see this until Criterion releases it(, and Othello, and It's All True, and The Immortal Story, and maybe The Deep too).

Listen, I'm at the very least ambivalent about this whole thing (given that I have the luxury of living near theaters that could play it, I won't be indulging), but I hardly can find it in me to spew that kind of vitriol against people who want to watch this in a theater but have been denied the opportunity (I may…

The Jennifer Jason Leigh-aissance will continue for a decade or more. I'll stake my Pulitzer on it!

As a huge huge fan of everything Kaufman has written (okay, not Human Nature, but everything else, up to and including Confessions of a Dangerous Mind and especially Synecdoche, New York), this gets a big ole "yes please" from me on every level. Of course, even if I wasn't interested, I'd still be amused that Dan…

I watched that about a year ago, when I was watching a whole bunch of PSH films in the lead-up to Mockingjay Part I. Let's just say that I found the flaws you would find upon dissection during that first viewing (the big ones for me were the near-rape scene played for giggles early on and the movie not even trying to…

Oddly enough, they don't hate women, they just hate acclaimed cinematographer, frequent Wes Anderson collaborator, and Ghostbusters DoP Robert Yeoman. He knows what he did to incite Josh Modell's wrath.

Did you make it to that part yet? Either way, I'm genuinely sorry you couldn't go into it not expecting that to come like I did.

Oh wow, I bet this movie will have plot holes man that's such an original and witty observation.

He did a lot of great work in smaller positions. One scene that he shot for The Conversation remains in the final cut (the rest was reshot after he got fired), he worked alongside too many other great 70s cinematographers to name shooting the concert scenes in The Rose, and he did uncredited additional photography on T…

Yeah, there's a story about how he went to a screening of the film with a stopwatch just to prove that at least half of the film was shot by him.

And Mads is the lead villain! Let's hope and pray he doesn't go the way of the last lead actor on a sadly-cancelled Bryan Fuller show to get the main villain role in a Marvel movie.

You got it, dude!

May God Have mercy! on your soul.

Ron Howard over David Lynch and Robert Altman, don't forget.

As always, your grandma is the best at cogent film criticism.

Thanks for the tip!

I think I read that the names of the cinematographers aren't put on the ballots when people vote for the ultimate winner, so I imagine that's screwing him more than anything in the main competition.

At this point, I don't think Deakins is getting anything besides a Lifetime Achievement Oscar, unless Blade Runner 2 turns out to be a much better film than I'd expect.

I really don't think there's much there to justify a sequel, but I will be there if Villeneuve and/or Deakins return (Benicio slayed it in the role, but I could see the character faltering under less sure hands).
