Elephant (1989) is essential, but you should already own the British Film Institute's massive Alan Clarke boxset.

can't wait to see this. A frontrunner for 2017's HolyFuckingShit film has been found! Hope it's on the same level as Atlas Shrugged, God's Not Dead, and Little Boy.

and a memorable supporting role as a drug dealer in DEALING (1972), which he discussed in his Random Roles interview

He's excellent in Robert M. Young's RICH KIDS (1979) as well.

I guess. I thought it was fucking hilarious. I love how manic it is.

I believe it was primarily shot in Mexico, with a handful of exteriors in Miami

Miami!

he's really amazing in Blake Edwards' BLIND DATE. Don't let Kim Basinger drink!

you can't fake those canals in Middle America

I have a deep connection to Venice. Scenes like the curb stomping and bathroom shooting in American History X were shot at my middle and high school, respectively. Grease was primarily made at the same high school. Will Arnett's awful Netflix show Flaked takes place within walking distance of the ultra-overpriced…

why do none of her obits mention her starring role in Volker Schlondorff's A DEGREE OF MURDER (1967)?

At any given time, I have about a dozen. I've sold quite a few and donated others to the UCLA Film & Television Archive and EYE Film Institute in the Netherlands

It's the AV Club. Like Stereogum, they pretend to be knowledgable about what they write of, but often end up looking ridiculous

I still have a 70mm print of the original film in a gutted refrigerator in my garage

I've been fascinated with this film for years. I truly think it's the first feature film created by non-homo sapien life forms. The story of its production and distribution warrants a book as well. Apparently, every 35mm print was destroyed after its brief theatrical release, and the filmmaker has been trying to…

Absolutely. A massive pissing contest between America and the Soviet Union

Vietnam was the disaster America has never recovered from; a horrific avalanche that lead to more reckless and stupid military expenditures and forever turned the armed forces into a terrorist organization.

I have no trouble resisting "Swish Swish". Hearing that atrocity once was enough
