Now that's a film I like a lot more than I think I should. 

That and all his subsequent films. And I say that as someone who likes Southland Tales more than most.

May I present the King (Fuhrer?) of all failed pilots:

No no, it’s always been spelt Mendela, you must be mistaken.

She was tremendous in The Assistant, too.

Oh absolutely, I don’t mean to imply that Connor is in any way a good guy, I just mean that he was the only one capable of not acting like a complete prick in the moment, and showed some actual warmth and compassion to his blood relatives.

Those Olivier Assayas films are both belting, I’m glad she rates them, too.

The words he used to describe Kendall could easily be turned back on himself. I wonder if the writers were deliberately inviting that reading.

Following on from my question last week about how much evidence Greg managed to save from Tom, Kendall’s evasiveness to Shiv makes me believe that it is *much* less substantial than his press conference led us to believe.

One-crazy-night picaresques are exactly my jam, so I’m looking forward to this now, having previously never heard of it.

It wouldn’t have changed anything about her character and we wouldn’t have had to follow her accent round the houses every time she raised her voice.

Tarantino likes to run his mouth about upcoming films. Over the years he’s speculated about making:
