TIME BANDITS (1981), dir. Terry Gilliam

I just love the idea of taking guys that are small and treating them like heroes, treating them like Alan Ladd, almost as tall as Alan Ladd, I think he was about three inches taller than those guys. That’s what the joy of doing it was and giving these guys a chance to get out of their fucking Womble costumes and R2-D2 tin cans and be people. And they all rose to the occasion, they were all brilliant. —Terry Gilliam

ok well that one's going straight on the favorites list for sure. absolute masterpiece. one of the most genuinely unsettling horror movies I've ever seen, and I've seen a LOT. It's all the slow descent into madness that the Shining movie wanted to be, the acting never missed a fucking beat (this is the guy's FIRST LEAD ROLE and goddamn did he command every second he was on screen), played super well on the 70s talk show on-air/off-air setting, then throw in some Cronenberg-style practical effects and I could not look away

Hear me out, I am not saying anything in particular, yet I am saying some matters which I may elaborate upon in times to come.

When I say Fourth Nattawat’s performance in My School President (2022) recalls Zac Efron in High School Musical, it’s not just a genre connection between two high school musical romances; I mean that Fourth evokes a sincere charisma and presence that a select few actors can bring to the the screen. It’s exhilarating, undeniable, and has little to with crafting their character. What matters is that these performances seem to compel us to watch and care. A star is born, as they say.

Roger Ebert wrote about it in his review for the comedy Nine to Five in which Dolly Parton made her debut, “Nine to Five is a good-hearted, simple-minded comedy that will win a place in film history, I suspect, primarily because it contains the movie debut of Dolly Parton. She is, on the basis of this one film, a natural-born movie star, a performer who holds our attention so easily that it's hard to believe it's her first film. There have been other debuts this unmistakable; you could name Marilyn Monroe, James Dean, John Travolta. And what you'd be talking about in each case would not necessarily be a great dramatic performance in an important movie. You'd be talking about a quality of presence, a personal life force that seems to take over the screen.” I remember watching East Siders with friends once—a show I found to be cheap-looking with lots of stilted performances, but the air on set and in the living room in which I was watching the show seemed to change when Constance Wu walked on. It was almost as if she had brought her own lighting designer the way your face was drawn to her as her character barreled through the set. Like her, Fourth, playing the dumb but deeply genuine Gun (the type of character Channing Tatum specializes in), evoked such raw magnetism and vulnerability that it raised the quality of the whole show. This is the presence of a movie star.

It’s just so thrilling to see this kind of performance emerge in the BL scene, as well. Plenty of other actors on these shows are doing fantastic work, and the writing is easily beginning to compare to Euro-American work (I’d say besting them in many ways as far as depicting and thematically orienting toward queer life). An actor with the kind of presence Fourth has really brings more potential for broad crossover appeal so all of this work can be more broadly recognized and appreciated.

The Crimson Kimono (1959, dir. Samuel Fuller)

[randomly--accessed--memories]

Thinking a bit about the rubberneckers who start showing up at the hotel after they rebuild. Charlie's so excited when she see so many people coming by, asking if they can stay for the day to see if they like it, but... they're all just here to laugh at her friends. Not even just Vox– Husk and Niffty too.

What a way to spend an afternoon! Hang around in the lobby for a few hours and you'll get to see the Television Demon make a fool of himself while the Gambling Demon pours you a drink! Might even catch a glimpse of Angel Dust or the Radio Demon! Most people don't even remember Niffty, but those who do get a kick out of seeing what she's been reduced to as well. Three ex-overlords, one who’s been AWOL for nearly a decade, and a porn star who clearly must be on his way out too; turns out "The Hazbin Hotel" is a fitting name after all!

It breaks Charlie's heart to see so many people being needlessly cruel to her friends for no reason other than their own entertainment.

welcome to my blog! here, i’ll be deep diving into my favourite medias, both indulgently and critically (depending on my mood) through analysis, fan writing, and more! I’m not the most consistent with my works, especially heavy on the fictional side, but i’m hoping that sharing it here will stimulate that burnt out segment of my little brain so … here’s to … creative liberty and overanalysis i suppose
