doggin' (no, not that kind!)
Paul Fitzpatrick: London, October 2023 Doggin’ (playing truant, bunking off, playing hooky) There was a time when the term doggin’ had different connotations from what it has now. Although, on further inspection, it could be argued that there are some similarities to both activities……You don’t want to be recognised.You spend time in the woods It isn’t as much fun as you’d imagined (and I’m…

When I saw the news about Malika Andrews and Taylor Rooks earlier this week, I was hurt. My black brothers was hurt and going through it on social media. I slid down the wall in my crib. And all I could think about was this Nas song. 😂
A few weeks ago, Wale released More About Nothing on streams. And one of the things I’ve talked about was clearing samples and the difficulty doing so with old mixtapes. So when the fans noticed that The Trip (Downtown) wasn’t on the stream version of More About Nothing, we was upset. But Wale quietly got the song cleared and put it out last night as a surprise. So now we can properly enjoy The Trip (Downtown) and The Ambitious Girl back-to-back, as it’s suppose to be consumed. I hope it ends up on the vinyl version of this mixtape, because I’ve brought a copy.

IB REVIEW: THE IRISHMAN
Written by ishmael Mainoo 
An ambitious comeback for a director that needs no introduction, Italian American film director Martin Scorsese’s cinematic adaptation of the Charles Brandt Biography: ’I heard you paint houses’ a detailing the life of Frank “The Irishman” Sheeran and his dealings with the Buffalino crime family, and Jimmy Hoffa head of the teamsters union.  Can be described as enthralling. Informative and macabre as well as thoroughly enjoyable. Speaking as a man familiar with the filmography of the ‘new Hollywood’ icon, it was refreshing to see an auteur like Scorsese returning to his artistic roots. Reminiscent of such previous works as Casino and The mafia classic Goodfellas. And with the line-up of an all-star cast. Scorsese could well be likened to Marvel’s S.H.I.E.LD agent: Nick Fury as he assembles his avengers. Seeing him team up once again with the likes of Stout ‘tough guy’ Joe Pesci, The Ragin bull Robert De Niro, And of course Al Pacino. All of whom are no strangers to appearing in the odd gangster flick or two. All this along with the addition of British actor Stephen Graham who has indeed starred in his fair share of crime productions from Tommy in the guy Ritchie film ‘Snatch’ to Chicago mob boss Al Capone in the critically acclaimed HBO series ‘Boardwalk empire’,  I think we can safely say this cast will take to any gangster role like a duck to water. And an appearance by Harvey Keitel as the respected Mob boss Angelo Bruno as well as a little something for the young people as new York rapper Action Bronson has a bit part as a coffin salesman, but I digress…
The Irishman is yet another biopic style film about an antihero in Frank Sheeran (Robert De Niro) who’s line of work lead to the slow and subtle dismantling of his family life especially his relationship with his daughter Peggy who witnesses certain sides to her father that she knows are less than pleasant and eventually her fear of him turns to hatred as she realises her father is a cold blooded killer. Within the opening shot we see our silver haired protagonist and humble narrator; Frank Sheeran sitting alone in his section of the cafeteria at a nursing home for the elderly. Almost held in captivity by his wheelchair. As he reminisces to us in the typical Scorsese fashion of breaking the fourth wall. About how life used to be. Treating the audience as an eager child hearing stories of the ‘the good ol’days’ from Grandpa. Showing muted attrition for his acts and almost a sense of self pity in his tone before even getting into the story. The elderly Irish American hitman still has an air of military philosophy in his character. That one could attribute to the character’s time in the second world war as he rationalises his acts as any quintessential soldier would, by stating he was only following orders.  
From a technical standpoint the film’s cinematography was nothing short of trademark Scorsese, the tracking shot through the nursing home and into the room where frank sits, almost emulating the single take done by Henry and Karen Hill entering through the staff entrance at the Copacabana club in Goodfellas, or the quick cross cuts between Jo Hoffa (Welker white) turning on her ignition and an exploding car from another job. Indeed, it is the suspense created from the long pause of Jo anxiously awaiting to turn her engine on that transforms the scene alone into something of sheer brilliance.  The Irishman to me was a testament to the scorcese cinematic mafia world. And  will leave you either  fascinated with the mafioso subculture or leave you ultimately disgusted with their heinous and nonchalant behaviour to murder. However unlike Goodfellas, casino or even the wolf of wall street, I found the film to be ‘an acquired taste’ if it so can be called, unlike it’s predecessors I found that the film was more dialogue driven than films before it and set at a slower pace. Compared to the aforementioned names. Well written though the film was and with the certain east coast lexical flair which all added to a believable and natural dialogue. I couldn’t help but feel that this came at the expense of momentum for the film. even the opening scenes of Scorsese’s films beforehand struck you with action from the very beginning. Whether it’s three guys driving at night with a halfdead body in the trunk. (Goodfellas). or a Casino boss leaving a restaurant ready to turn on the ignition in his car only to unknowingly detonate a car bomb (Casino). Or even a midget toss at an office party in the heart of New York’s financial district. (The Wolf of Wall Street). I feel that if the Irishman was a horse it is in no way shape or form a front runner and is a film that requires a viewer’s patience.
Which is probably why a handful of viewers (philistines) complained after it’s initial  release stating it to be ‘boring’ and ‘too long’,  I can empathise with these people on the ‘boring’ part, upon my first viewing even I had to wave my cursor to check the time marker to see how long I had left of this picture. However, to simply complain a film is ‘too long’ is in my mind nothing short of nonsense. Especially if you are familiar with Scorsese’s works: The runtime for the Wolf of Wall street is exactly three hours, Goodfellas two hours and twenty-eight minutes and Casino at Two hours and Fifty-eight. To conclude the runtime of a film should have no bearing on the quality of the film itself.  And would not be a problem for most were the film more visually stimulating. Where the wolf of wall street, casino and Goodfellas featured frequent fast cuts and dynamic shots of abhorrent drug use, rampant sex, and/or poor bastards getting their brains blown out. All set to a multitude of complimenting soundtracks by artists such as Ray Charles, The rolling stones, Smokestack lighting or frank Sinatra etc. The Irishman had a distinct lack of all mentioned. However, this muted tone made for a more earnest watching. instead of relying on fast cuts and music sequences, it relied on the tension created by nuances in dialogue. The tension was even made sharper by the lack of non-diegetic sound. Seen multiple times especially when Tony Slaerno and Russel Buffalino (Joe Pesci) Tell Frank to persuade Jimmy (Al Pacino) to retire. (Essentially, ‘tell him to retire or we whack him’)
 To the finish, the film’s story as a whole reminded me of Goodfellas in the sense of a character being indoctrinated into the mob life and showing the day to day stresses and moral dilemmas of working in such a career. Such as attempting to blow up a laundry place only to find out before the act that it belongs to your mob boss. And trying to prevent your hot-headed friend from getting killed by your employers. However I believe this picture goes a step further by showing how our protagonist got to work for the mafia - what life was like working for the mafia - and life after the mafia as an old man riddled with arthritis. Which leaves one to almost sympathise with this Irishman. As he sits alone in his nursing home. Isolated from the open world, with all his friend’s dead. Or in prison and a family that wants nothing to do with him because of who he was.

I just love thinking about the Waystation family yall
like
between Calypso (former Titaness who did nothing but garden for some 4000 years), Emmie (granddaughter of Dionysus) and Lit (son of Demeter) they probably have one boss ass garden that can grow practically any food any time of the year
they probably sell it at like a local farmers market and everyone always marvels at how they get so many of a certain produce completely out of season! And Calypso and Lit aren’t allowed to man the booth by themselves bc modern money still baffles them. They get stuck with Georgina once and she ends up handling all the money to every customer’s amusement.
And I mentioned team gardening, but there’s also team forging! Jo showing awed Leo and Georgina the difference between forging with magic items and Forging With Magic like she does. Then teaching them how to do the basics, even if they can’t properly use magic like she can as a daughter of Hecate.
or! or think about Leo and Calypso going to school! it’s hard at first (Leo is still in shock over that thing and Calypso has no idea what school is even like) but eventually they get into a rhythm where they figure out how they study best, what subjects they’re best at (Leo is great at math when he tries, Calypso is probably endlessly fascinated by science classes), all that stuff. Imagine them walking Georgina to elementary school before going to their own school aww
(also speaking of that thing, imagine Leo showing up at the Waystation and he’s acting like everything’s fine but Emmie and Jo catch on and gently get him to talk, and when it all comes out they just. hug him. because this poor boy needs a hug from a mom figure stat)
Jamie shows up for dinner frequently (brings his girlfriend depending on whether she knows of all this godly business?) and tells all sorts of stories about the Yoruban gods to an excited crowd. (I’m sure all of them, except maybe Emmie who’s been around A While and Calypso who is a Titaness, would be confused but excited at the thought of different pantheons)
Speaking of stories! Emmie and Lit telling them all what it was like living in Ancient Greece. Calypso telling what it was like to live even before that, when only the titans were around. Emmie talking about all the places she went as a Hunter of Artemis. Jo adding to those stories, then talking about working for Al Capone (Leo would love that omg). Leo even manages to add in his own experiences during his recent quests.
idk where i’m going with this but i just love imaging them as a weird lil family. mom’s Emmie and Jo with their daughter Georgina. teenagers Leo and Calypso who are figuring life out. Lit as that weird uncle type who used to be an enemy but now he’s just there. also there’s 2 gryphons and an elephant. all living in a semi-sentient building. beautiful.

Film Diary (July 12, 2020 - Dec 28, 2020)
JULY
July 12, 2020: KNIVES OUT (Dir. Rian Johnson)
Tumblr media
We get to see Rian Johnson finely tune his craft in real time, and I find it exciting. I’ve been on a binge of his work as-of-late and a recurring theme of most of his movies is them being a commentary on themselves or the genres they’re working within. I think this movie nails that trick on the head without patting itself on the back too much. The ensemble cast is expertly chosen and works together really well, and you can tell just by watching it that they were having fun on set. The cast is grounded by Ana de Armas’ quietly brilliant performance. My favorite Rian Johnson movie is still reserved for Star Wars: The Last Jedi, but I do think this is his best work so far.
July 13, 2020: MERMAIDS (Dir. Richard Benjamin)
Tumblr media
A slightly more absurd version of Lady Bird, if Lady Bird was made in the nineties. A good addition to the strained-but-loving mother-daughter relationship cinematic universe.
July 15, 2020: THE UNTOUCHABLES (Dir. Brian De Palma)
Tumblr media
This is actually the first mafia movie I’ve ever seen, and honestly...it was probably a bad one to start with. Although it was entertaining and tense at all the right moments, the whole thing just felt empty. Every character seemed half-baked and none of them really had any development. De Palma could’ve gone grittier for an R-rating and made his interpretation of Al Capone a little less cartoonish; Kevin Costner’s Eliot Ness was doing the absolute least, and Robert De Niro’s Al Capone was doing the absolute most.
July 31, 2020: (500) DAYS OF SUMMER (Dir. Marc Webb)
Tumblr media
For some reason I have unintentionally seen almost all of Marc Webb’s filmography, and I have to say that I’m underwhelmed by all of it. While watching I found myself reflexively comparing this to Webb’s The Amazing Spiderman and maybe it ruined my viewing experience a little bit. Both of them have lots of super mumbly, drawn-out conversations and an interpretation of an “indie” style that just seems...bland to me. (Also, both of them have pale women with bangs and men with undiagnosed depression.) I don’t know, I just feel like if you want a rom-com with a realistic depiction of romantic relationships, you should just go watch The Big Sick.
AUGUST
August 14, 2020: LATE NIGHT (Dir. Nisha Ganatra)
Tumblr media
Emma Thompson was great in this, and I think Mindy Kaling is very underrated as a writer (in some ways, I think she is the modern Nora Ephron). I’ve seen quite a few reviews claiming that this movie plays along with conventions, but I don’t necessarily think that conventions are inherently bad as long as they’re executed well. In this case, they were.
August 22, 2020: THE FAREWELL (Dir. Lulu Wang)
Tumblr media
I’d classify this as a really good movie that just didn’t click with me. It was a complete, “it’s not them, it’s me,” situation. It was smartly directed with a focused, sharp script and an excellent leading performance from Awkwafina - I can see why people were upset that it got snubbed at the Oscars - but it just wasn’t my thing. The only time I really connected with it emotionally was the ending.
August 22, 2020: KNOCK DOWN THE HOUSE (Dir. Rachel Lears)
Tumblr media
The only piece of media currently in existence that somehow makes me feel a sense of patriotism for this hellscape of a country.
SEPTEMBER
September 5, 2020: BARRY (Dir. Vikram Gandhi)
Tumblr media
Speaking of living in a hellscape of a country, I have mixed feelings about the Obama presidency - but this movie isn’t about his presidency. It isn’t indicative that he’ll be president at any point. It’s essentially a piece of historical fiction about race and American identity that happens to use Barack Obama as its protagonist. You could replace him with any other dude with a background similar to his and it still would’ve been interesting.
September 8, 2020: UNICORN STORE (Dir. Brie Larson)
Tumblr media
If there’s one word to describe this movie, I’d say, it’s cute. Not in a patronizing type of way, but in a this-movie-feels-like-a-warm-hug type of way. I like this Brie Larson vehicle much more than Captain Marvel, mainly because I feel like she’s having more fun in this and she gets to wear more colors and Samuel L. Jackson has tinsel in his hair and also there’s a unicorn in it. I’m a simple girl with simple needs. I also think Samuel L. Jackson should be adorned in tinsel in every film he’s in without explanation (I might actually watch Pulp Fiction if Jackson’s character had a sparkly afro in it). This movie also made me stan Mamoudou Athie - I think he plays a good straight man and I hope that they don’t waste him in Jurassic World: Dominion, although I’m not getting my hopes up.
September 11, 2020: LADY BIRD (Dir. Greta Gerwig)
Tumblr media
I waited a criminally long amount of time to finally watch this. I can’t really say anything about this movie that hasn’t already been said. It’s good! It’s genuine and sweet and I liked seeing Timothée Chalamet play a pretentious asshole.
September 12, 2020: THE BROTHERS BLOOM (Dir. Rian Johnson)
Tumblr media
Upon a rewatch, I’m taking my original score of 3.5 out of 5 and bumping it up to a 4 out of 5.  Adrian Brody and Rachel Weisz’s performances pretty much make this movie with their earnestness and chemistry. I think you could qualify this film as a romantic dramedy that just happens to be about an international con job. It doesn’t do the greatest job of explaining itself plot-wise, but it makes up for it with stylish direction and a charming cast.
September 18, 2020: EVER AFTER (Dir. Andy Tennant)
Tumblr media
The best Cinderella adaptation currently in existence (next to Nickelodeon’s Rags starring Keke Palmer, of course). It’s so good that I’m willing to forgive Drew Barrymore’s attempt at a British accent. I also think this is one of the few movies that could be a decent remake if you gave it to the right director.
September 19, 2020: BRICK (Dir. Rian Johnson)
Tumblr media
I love Rian Johnson, I think we’ve established that already, but I kind of sort of hated his film debut. It seemed so caught up in its own concept that it ended up seeming like a shell of a movie with no theme to ground it. Sometimes I don’t care if movie has no theme if it’s entertaining, but this movie was not entertaining, so...
September 25, 2020: ABOUT LAST NIGHT... (Dir. Edward Zwick)
Tumblr media
Alternate title: Toxic Man is Horrible to a Woman Who Literally Does Nothing Wrong Ever and Also is Gorgeous, They Break Up, Toxic Man Gets a Different Job and Toxicity is Gone Now, Like His Personality was Sifted Through a Brita Water Filter, then the Toxic Man Gets an Unearned Happy Ending with Gorgeous Woman. It might be a little bit long, but at least people would know what they were in for. Still better than (500) Days of Summer, although every male character in About Last Night... deserves to be in jail. All of Demi Moore’s sweaters get five stars.
OCTOBER
October 3, 2020: ENOLA HOLMES (Dir. Harry Bradbeer)
Tumblr media
During the first draft of this post, I gave this movie a pretty good review. Then I rewatched it, and...huh. It’s not exactly a bad movie, it’s just an aggressively average movie. Enola Holmes would have benefited from a) a shorter runtime, b) a better mystery, and c) a weirder style. I think that if the character is going to repeatedly talk into the camera, which is kinda weird, you should just make everything else weird too. Give it a Birds of Prey-esque unreliable narrator and non-linear storyline. It’s still a fun movie, and the inevitable sequels have potential, but it just felt like they could’ve - I don’t know - made more of an effort?
October 10, 2020: HUNT FOR THE WILDERPEOPLE (Dir. Taika Waititi)
Tumblr media
This is the first Taika Waititi movie I’ve seen besides Thor: Ragnarok. I liked seeing how his style transferred into Ragnarok, and it probably has the funniest funeral scene ever written (do yourself a favor and look it up on YouTube). Hunt for the Wilderpeople knows when to make a joke without getting too goofy, and it knows when to be sentimental without getting too sappy. It also has dozens of glorious one-liners.
October 11, 2020: LITTLE WOMEN (Dir. Greta Gerwig)
Tumblr media
The best Little Women adaptation. (I haven’t seen the one with Katharine Hepburn but I’m just going to assume that this one’s better.) This movie was clearly made for people who know and love the story, which can be a good thing and a bad thing - it means that it took some creative liberties that enhanced the story and added subversions that made it feel meta in a satisfying way. But it also meant that it could be potentially confusing for people who aren’t familiar with the story. Personally I wasn’t lost, but I think Gerwig could’ve used some more visual cues to let you know when they were in the present or when they were diving into the past. I wouldn’t want her to eliminate the jumping back and forth, though, because I think it allowed the characters to be explored a lot more than a linear story would’ve allowed. Gerwig also did a great job of letting you understand the motivations of the supporting characters - specifically Amy - in a way that prior adaptations never really did. Every character felt like their own person instead of accessories to Jo’s life.
October 16, 2020: THE TRIAL OF THE CHICAGO 7 (Dir. Aaron Sorkin)
Tumblr media
Siegel, a very good Letterboxd reviewer that I follow, said it better than I can: ���Aaron Sorkin is way too good a writer to be forced to work with such a mediocre director as Aaron Sorkin”. I didn’t mind the beginning - I thought the quick editing, upbeat music, and cuts back and forth between historical footage and fictionalized scenes were engaging, but the ending was clunky and didn’t fit the tone of the rest of the film. The Trial of the Chicago 7 was a little confused politically and wanted to desperately cling onto a centrism that didn’t let the film fully embrace the anger that it could’ve ended on. Despite all of these things, I still thoroughly enjoyed it. The performances were all excellent, and if any of them get nominated for an Oscar it’s well-deserved. I’m also a sucker for Aaron Sorkin’s speechy, tangential dialogue. It makes me feel smart whenever I listen to it.
October 20, 2020: HALLOWEENTOWN (Dir. Duwayne Dunham)
Tumblr media
This movie does it for the girls and the gays, that’s it.
October 26, 2020: BIRDS OF PREY (AND THE FANTABULOUS EMANCIPATION OF ONE HARLEY QUINN) (Dir. Cathy Yan)
Tumblr media
This movie also does it for the girls and the gays, that’s it. Seriously, I honestly don’t know why people don’t love this movie. Margot Robbie’s performance as Harley Quinn is Oscar-worthy. That’s not a joke. I actually think that if the Oscars knew how to have fun, she would get a nomination. She is this character. It feels so lived-in and she never does too much - and with a role like Harley Quinn, it would be very easy to do too much. I also have to give props to the type of feminism that director Cathy Yan inserted into this film. I really enjoyed Wonder Woman and didn’t mind Captain Marvel, but there was something so formulaic and studio-approved about the female empowerment in both of those films. Birds of Prey, however, didn’t really give a single fuck. It was a nuanced, violent, funny as hell story about flawed women forming alliances and finding meaningful relationships in a world that actively abuses them and ugh, I love this movie. It’s probably my personal favorite of the year.
October 27, 2020: DOLLY PARTON: HERE I AM (Dir. Francis Whately)
Tumblr media
This documentary was strangely edited and offered pretty surface-level information presented in an uninteresting way. I enjoyed myself while I was watching it, but I just wish it would’ve gone deeper. Dolly Parton is one of the most interesting figures in music history, and there was a lot more they could’ve explored.
NOVEMBER
November 1, 2020: ATTACK THE BLOCK (Dir. Joe Cornish)
Tumblr media
This 82-minute movie gave John Boyega a more satisfactory arc than the almost seven hour long Star Wars sequel trilogy. Seriously, this movie fucking slaps! It hit all the right notes at all the right moments. I honestly think that a lot of sci-fi movies would be better if they worked with smaller budgets and shorter runtimes. Something about working within limitations makes a film feel more authentic and cuts out a lot of the excess fat. This movie is funny and earnest and surprisingly has a lot to say about the world we live in, with a budget that’s 200 million dollars less and a runtime that's 45 minutes less than a lot of sci-fi movies out there.
November 18, 2020: A PRINCESS FOR CHRISTMAS (Dir. Michael Damian)
Tumblr media
*Lady Gaga voice* Amazing, show-stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely-not-ever-been-done-before... My go-to shitty Hallmark Christmas movie every year :)
November 19, 2020: THE LEGO STAR WARS HOLIDAY SPECIAL (Dir. Ken Cunningham)
Tumblr media
I’m giving this a five-star rating completely unironically. This movie uses the mechanism of time travel better than Avengers: Endgame.
November 20, 2020: THE CHRISTMAS CHRONICLES (Dir. Clay Kaytis)
Tumblr media
There’s a scene where Kurt Russel does a musical number in a jail cell and then Winston from “New Girl” quits his job as a cop. What more could you want from a Christmas movie?
November 21, 2020: INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS (Dir. Joel & Ethan Coen)
Tumblr media
What was originally intended to be an Oscar Isaac thirst watch turned into what might end up being one of my favorite movies of all time. It’s one of those movies where it’s hard to articulate why it was so good, it was just good, but for the sake of this post I’ll try my best. Oscar Isaac was phenomenal in this - and I’m not just saying that because I’m a simp. His performance, combined with the script, made you root for his character even if he was a douchebag a lot of the time. The movie did a great job of blurring the line between what Llewyn Davis brought on himself and what was the result of just really, really bad luck. The use of sound in Llewyn Davis is excellent, too. Instead of using an instrumental score to emphasize emotion, they used sounds from the character’s environment, which really let the occasional musical moments pop - whenever anyone started singing, it almost felt cathartic. The Coen Brothers also provided moments of levity with perfectly-timed comedic moments throughout. It’s one of those movies where at the end of it, you’re kind of jealous that someone could make something that good. The fact that Oscar Isaac didn’t even get an Oscar nomination for this is - not to be dramatic - a fucking war crime.
November 22, 2020: STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI (Dir. Rian Johnson)
Tumblr media
Listen, I know The Last Jedi is such a hotly debated movie that it’s almost political, but it happens to be my favorite movie of all time. Like, number one. It even beats A Princess for Christmas. I’ve had my fair share of slander for loving this movie so damn much, but I will defend it until the day I die, and then I will have my tombstone engraved with “Luke Skywalker’s portrayal in this movie makes sense, you guys are just poisoned by nostalgia.” I’ve seen this movie several times, but I actually haven’t given it a rewatch since The Rise of Skywalker came out last December, and it still holds up. There’s a couple of things that I really appreciated a bit more this time around: every shot in this movie seems so intentional and emotionally charged. Pause it at any point and you’re going to have something interesting and aesthetically pleasing to look at. I really enjoyed the dialogue, too. In most of his movies, Rian Johnson makes his characters talk in a slightly heightened (or in Brick's case, very heightened) way, and it lends well to the Star Wars universe. I'm never going to to not gush about this film. The Last Jedi is the movie that made me love movies, and for that I will always be grateful.
November 25, 2020: HAPPIEST SEASON (Dir. Clea DuVall)
Tumblr media
I have similar feelings toward this movie as I did toward Crazy Rich Asians; it follows most of the conventions that populate the rom-com genre, but for the marginalized people the movie is representing, it’s actually pretty fresh. Hot take, but I don’t think that Kristen Stewart’s character should’ve ended up with Aubrey Plaza’s character - I just think the film could’ve done a better job of empathizing with Mackenzie Davis’s character. If we focused on her perspective a bit more, maybe she would’ve seemed less...shitty and distant. I’d also appreciate it if we just stop doing the Gay Best Friend Trope after this movie because - let’s be honest with ourselves - no one’s going to be able to top Daniel Levy’s rendition of it.
November 29, 2020: MANGROVE (Dir. Steve McQueen)

I may need to give this a rewatch at some point, mainly because it seems like I didn’t fully grasp the themes it was conveying due to my own skepticisms going into it. Here’s my original review.
December 13, 2020: THE PROM (Dir. Ryan Murphy)
Tumblr media
I really can’t critically engage with this movie because my brain just turns off the minute the first song starts. Most of the criticisms you’ve heard are valid - though perhaps a little bit blown out of proportion - but it’s so much damn fun. I’ve watched it twice now.
December 19, 2020: MA RAINEY’S BLACK BOTTOM (Dir. George C. Wolfe)
Tumblr media
Chadwick Boseman’s last performance is haunting, transformative, and magnetic. The same can be said about Viola Davis’ performance, which is a surprise to no one, but this is really Chadwick’s vehicle. I just wish the directing was as interesting as the acting. This film was adapted from an August Wilson play, and directorially it was treated like a play, which doesn’t necessarily translate that well to film. The space around the actors wasn’t really utilized, and the way it was shot was pretty lackluster and static; oftentimes, the only interesting thing to look at in a scene was an actor’s performance. Maybe I’ve just been a little obsessed with Steve McQueen’s directing style lately, but this movie probably would’ve been five stars for me (instead of the four-and-a-half I gave it) if it was directed by him.
December 19, 2020: LONG TOAST (Dir. Karsten Runquist)
youtube
Fuck yeah, Karsten Runquist! Shout out to his monthly “what I watched in [insert month]” videos for giving me the inspiration to write this. 
December 23, 2020: LET IT SNOW (Dir. Luke Snellin)
Tumblr media
Weirdly enough, this may be one of my favorite Christmas movies. There’s nothing all that remarkable about it, but it has a sweet, simple holiday vibe with innocent performances and low stakes. I don’t really ask a lot for Christmas movies, and this pretty much delivers.
December 25, 2020: THE PSYCHOLOGY OF DREAM ANALYSIS (Dir. Rian Johnson)
Tumblr media
This short film from Rian Johnson is the earliest thing I could find of his filmography on Letterboxd, and it was a pretty engaging watch. It was essentially all of Johnson’s quirks as a director condensed into ten minutes. It reminded me of those trippy short stories you had to read in middle school.
December 26, 2020: PLUS ONE (Dir. Jeff Chan & Andrew Rhymer)
Tumblr media
I’ve seen a lot of rom-coms - like, an ungodly amount - and my love-hate affair with this genre has made me realize that predictability isn’t the issue with rom-coms (a lot of genres are very, very predictable). The issue is a lack of authenticity. Yes, this film is predictable, but it’s authentic. The humor in this movie actually feels like something that would happen in real life, not something heavily contrived or exaggerated for the sake of entertainment. I don’t have anything against the contrived and exaggerated, but it’s refreshing to see comedy being delivered so naturally in this genre. Plus One also has a more realistic (but still sweet) perspective on love and relationships which you don’t normally see in any genre.
December 27, 2020: THE HALF OF IT (Dir. Alice Wu)
Tumblr media
I watched this at the beginning of the year and didn’t enjoy it all that much - partly because I was in the closet and aaaah girls kissing aaaaaah - and partly because I just thought it was boring. On a second viewing, I really appreciated it more. I think it’s the smartest and most well-shot movie directed toward teens that I’ve seen on Netflix. Although the script can be a bit pretentious, it’s directed in a way that doesn’t feel like it’s either trying to be too indie or like an hour and fourty-five minute long single-camera sitcom episode. The character of Ellie is also a really interesting and nuanced character, and a good example of how to write and portray queerness on screen.
December 27, 2020: TAYLOR SWIFT - FOLKLORE: THE LONG POND STUDIO SESSIONS (Dir. Taylor Swift)
Tumblr media
I would die for Taylor Swift and/or Jack Antonoff.
December 28, 2020: MANK (Dir. David Fincher)
Tumblr media
I went into this movie as a) someone who has never seen a David Fincher film, and b) someone who has never seen Citizen Kane. Unsurprisingly, Mank was definitely not my thing. That doesn’t mean I didn’t appreciate it. It’s a fucking good-looking movie. But it’s kind of like the himbo of movies - it’s nice to look at, but there’s not much going on underneath. I’m hearing this complaint from a lot of people: it’s a technical masterpiece, but it feels pretty damn hollow. Personally, it’s not enough for me to recognize that a film looks and sounds good - I have to care about and know the human beings within it in order for me to think that it’s a good movie. To me, a film is only as good as the emotional relevance of its story, but sadly emotional relevance is where Mank falls short.
What movies kept you sane during 2020? Let me know!

Eräänä päivänä hän saa tehtäväksi kuljettaa hengenvaarallista, yksisilmäistä vankia. Matkalla hän tekee erehdyksen - joka maksaa paljon! Liian myöhään hän huomaa, että heitä on odotettu...

Conversation
Imagine a Chickenman crossover with the Cattanooga Cats (chwech)
NARRATOR: Having finally dispatched Chessie the Autograph Hound, as per assignment of the Police Commissioner, Our Legendary White-Winged Warrior, as in Chickenman, is preparing for the next phase of his assignment: Helping to get "Mrs. Howe's Troupe of Dancers" checked into Yaami's Hotel ahead of a concert appearence at the adjacant Taj Mahal, Midland City's preeminent entertainment venue.
CLERK, speaking with a Gail Gordon/Frank Nelson hybrid snootiness: So you're on assignment to handle "Mrs. Howe's Troupe of Dancers" as they arrive here for a few days' concerts at the Taj Mahal!
CHICKENMAN: That is correct, Sir.
CLERK: If I may show you something we usually don't reveal to the hoi polloi--
NARRATOR: Whereupon the clerk at Yaami's Hotel gave the Crusading Capon a rather revealing look at the Legendary Secret Passage connecting the premi of Yaami's to the backstage area of the Taj Mahal.
CLERK to CHICKENMAN: Don't be put off by the soft lighting; it's all distracting.
CHICKENMAN: Distracting to whom?
CLERK: The performers lucky enough to perform at the Taj Mahal AND stay at Yaami's, what did you expect?!
CHICKENMAN: And I assume this Secret Passage is designed to protect performers from rabid and overzealous fans demanding autographs or other souvenirs, especially such as might conceal Sinister and Dangerous Motives.
CLERK, with snobbiness inherent: How did you guess?
CHICKENMAN: Just dumb luck, I guess.
NARRATOR: Within a few minutes, Yaami's Hotel received a mobile call from--
COUNTRY, of the Cattanooga Cats (filter): Uh, this is Mrs. Howe's Troupe of Dancers; we're approaching Midland City now, and will be approaching Yaami's Hotel soon....
CLERK: Great, great! We ask that you please use the side alley between us and the abandoned-looking barber shop for entry, and keep a low profile on entry. Security reasons, you know.
NARRATOR: And some minutes later--
KITTY JO, female lead for the Cattanooga Cats: And aren't we glad to be in Midland City! [Whereupon the other members of the Cats--COUNTRY, GROOVE, SCOOTS and TEENY TIM, Kitty Jo's dog andportable keyboard player for the band--go into ad-libbed greetings.]
CHICKENMAN, to CLERK (aside): So THIS was "Mrs. Howe's Troupe of Dancers" all along!
CLERK, with sheer snark: Otherwise known as the Cattanooga Cats! It was just a secyrity ruse!
KITTY JO: If I may explain, uh--
CHICKENMAN, introducing himself: 'Tis I, Chickenman, The Wonderful White-Winged Warrior Who Strikes Fear Into The Hearts of Criminals and Lawbreakers--
GROOVE: [Laughing hilariously]
SCOOTS: Wavy chitlins! Is that THE Chickenman we've heard on the radio all this time?
CHICKENMAN: It is I, one and the same. And you will be pleased to hear where Chessie the Autograph Hound was tripped up and is under psychiatric observation.
ALL THE CATTANOOGA CATS: [Cheering and rejoicing]
KITTY JO, getting back on track: Actually, that thing about "Mrs. Howe's Troupe of Dancers"--
CHICKENMAN: The same ruse, know, Chessie the Autograph Hound attempted using.
COUNTRY: We actually use it as a way to communicate with theatrical hotel managers so as to avoid overzealous fans getting wind that we're the Cattanooga Cats!
NARRATOR: WEEEEEELLLLLLLL--!! So what exactly was Chessie the Autograph Hound privy to all this time, even if her main goal was to ask the Cattanooga Cats for their autographs--by hook or by crook? And Another Thing: Is there really a "Mrs. Howe's Troupe of Dancers" as part of the Cattanooga Cats' routine?
[Standard "Be listening tomorrow," &c., outro]

I appreciate that Donna Jo Napoli wrote a retelling of Snow White where the evil queen character still tries to murder people, but copy infringement is her real downfall. It’s a very Al Capone situation.
