Gene Hackman (The Package) stars as an L.A. District Attorney attempting to take an unwilling murder witness (Anne Archer) back to the United States to testify against a top-level mob boss. Frantically attempting to escape two deadly hitmen sent to silence her, they board a Vancouver-bound train only to find the killers are onboard with them. For the next 20 hours, as the train hurls through the beautiful but isolated Canadian wilderness, a deadly game of cat and mouse ensues in which their ability to tell a friend from foe is a matter of life and death.
Pre-order Narrow Margin.

Narrow Margin (1990) - M. Emmet Walsh as Sgt. Dominick Benti
Of course M. Emmet Walsh and Gene Hackman could catch one here.
Also J.A. Preston and Kevin McNulty could catch a D too.

J.T. Walsh as Michael Tarlow in Narrow Margin (1990).
He looked good. I do love it when he wears a red tie. He was so softly spoken in this film, however briefly he was in it.

Digital Noise Episode 345: Take The Twister Challenge DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 345: TAKE THE TWISTER CHALLENGE John and Chris review a really big stack this week of home releases. Some good. Some bad. Some EXTREMELY bad. And some surprisingly wonderful. From the film that set the standard for hitman movies, to that 90s Gene Hackman thriller on a train you never saw (but should have). From an auteur version of Shakespeare that definitely should be a lot better, to one of the best remastered wonderfully dumb movies ever, we’ve got quite the show for you. All titles were sent to Digital Noise by the distribution companies in question… Read More »Digital Noise Episode 345: Take The Twister Challenge read more on One of Us

sakura has an entire class of hype men (especially after the recent arc’s conclusion) and togame jo is in competition with all of them for the position of Sakura Haruka’s Number One Fan
#king’s court#wind breaker#wind breaker (nii satoru)#wind breaker nii satoru#togame jo#sakura haruka#togasaku#kamesaku#he’s winning by the way#it’s by a narrow margin for sure#but he’s winning#nirei’s annoyed about it and tries to prove that he clearly knows more about Sakura#and togame’s just nodding along not even arguing because this is all stuff he’s been trying to finesse out of sakura himself

i kind of think the idea of "monotheist privilege" at least in the north american context has about the same valence as "monosexual privilege" in that it does on some level exist, but lumping christians and jews together as oppressors is incoherent in the same way that lumping together trans lesbians with cishet men is
#like yeah i'm sure lateral harm can occur but the analysis as a whole...#and esp when these criticisms aren't coming from for example indian americans#but rather from - at least in large part - culturally christian neopagan#s#not speaking about that specific person as i don't want to speculate about individuals' backgrounds#but rather the aggregate#in that many many conversations on this website have revealed that culturally christian pagans can be *very* hostile in their belief that#jews are oppressing them just as much if not more than christians are#and react REALLY badly to any implication that actually they're in at least somewhat of an oppressor position#look like at the granular level hegemonies are bad and things should be inclusive - like of course#but the vitriol directed at me over that poll isn't warranted#and the extremely ironic thing is that the poll *is* christianormative BECAUSE i as a marginalized person was capitulating to the majority#and creating something legible to christians and cultural christian's#*christians#i was stepping OUT of my own cultural frameworks and acceding to someone else's for greater.... ease of *their* understanding#so to then be accused - by multiple people - of having a tiny narrow worldview is. it's something#but i guess that's the price of capitulation isn't it?#in any situation#loon.txt

I think if we are to do marginalized communities good, it'll help to remember that often, marginalized people who seem to be "forgotten about" in the mind of bigots aren't being treated well by them either - so many marginalized people are forcibly erased and made invisible. That is not a neutral action; it is a form of violence. Not all violence will present itself in the extreme of facing physical violence. The core of any violence against marginalized peoples will often come from a similar level of hatred for them. That's why it's so important to combat all violence, even the forms of violence you don't perceive "as harmful" as other forms.
#politics#like for example in some spaces people think that because transphobes tend to 'forget' about trans men* that means we face no violence...#...when we are often forcibly erased and the other forms of violence we face tends to also be erased - like...#...seeing people who go 'lel trans men are going to be forced in women's bathrooms if we go by ASAB' as if...#...we don't face violence for using said bathrooms. that's what i mean by the violence is still there but it's made invisible#and that's a common tactic i think. because if you MAKE people invisible then it's easier to dehumanize them and pretend they don't EXIST#it's just weird when people see that and don't perceive it as violence because it doesn't 'look that bad'#not all violence is fire and brimstone levels of brutality and indeed most violence done unto marginalized people won't look that way#to present violence as ONLY being the extremes we are permitting other forms of violence to exist and be carried out onto people#this ISN'T to say that extreme forms of violence are not atrocities and that they shouldn't be recognized for being brutal but that...#...we cannot narrow our view of violence so much that we still permit it so long as it isn't 'the most extreme'#just like physical abuse is not the only form of abuse one can face - it is analogous in this situation to recognize other violences#i hope this makes sense - i'm writing this with a time crunch and it's a bad habit

Regarding the whole "Fandom Is An Escape, so why should I have to care this much about misogyny/racism/ableism/transphobia/etc." thing. Idk about the rest of you, but it gets kind of hard for me to "escape" when I keep seeing people say the same vile things about characters who share aspects of my identity that I hear all the time in real life.
#gotta say: it doesn't make me feel any better getting ignored/disparaged on account of my gender irl and then seeing every fictional woman#also get ignored/disparaged when there is no material difference between her and popular male characters other than her gender#how do I escape from irl misogyny if y'all keep willfully ignoring and flinging gendered insults at 99% (<-lowball estimate) of#female characters? how do I put aside the ableism I face in real life when y'all discuss disabled/mentally ill characters in the most#absolutely out-of-pocket way? how do I forget about biphobia when the 'arguments' you make 'for fun' about bisexual characters#in fiction sound EXACTLY the same as the things people say about my bisexuality outside of the internet/fan culture?#and then obviously this gets compounded if you are trying to even simply EXIST in fandom as a poc or a trans person or an intersection of#any or all these varying identities/life experiences#like yes caring about fictional characters is not the same as caring about real people OBVIOUSLY I can't BELIEVE I have to keep clarifying#that. and at the same time!! because multiple things can be true at the same time!!!! engaging in behavior that enforces pre-ingrained#societal biases and prejudices!!!!!!!! does not help dismantle those biases and prejudices!!!!!!!!!!!!!! in a real-world way that DOES#involve caring about actual people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#it's also. interesting. when people go on & on about how some newest show about thin cis white (male) gays is So Important & Revolutionary#So We Must Do Everything To Keep It Relevant And Visible and then act this way about women/poc/trans people/disabled people/fat people#in media. so like. you DO agree that seeing a variety of life experiences represented in fiction is beneficial. you DO believe in the#value of depicting marginalized people. interesting that that only seems to apply to a VERY narrow and specific category of marginalization#(ugh remember when I talked about this and someone called me a straight person good times)

This has never actually been a fandom war. spn fandom has always been political, with a rigid and narrow minded element waging an ideological war against anything that violated or disturbed their status quo, against anything that said family of the heart and marginalized characters matter. “Family values” where only blood family counts and narrow ideas follow textbook American conservativism, dressed up in a “ship war” hat. Post spn era it metastasized and has grown less opaque but it was always this and I have had to fight it since I entered the fandom when season 1 aired.
#dot trolls fandom#maybe it was worth it maybe i did some good and the show evolved and the fandom evolved what if i have no regrets#that 2 MAGA jared stans are shrieking rage about me rn it’s perfect utterly perfect yes this is what it really is about#pls keep shrieking against everyone who cares about anything outside your narrow ideologies and your hypocrisy#where marginalized characters are only important when you can weaponize them against the fans you hate#or when your idol is performatively virtue signaling to try to cover up the harm he’s done#yes that’s it let that rage out expose your asses for everyone to see keep going

NOIR CITY 22
Join us January 24 – February 2 at Oakland’s historic Grand Lake Theater for NOIR CITY 22 featuring the fabulous femmes fatale who made the genre so spectacularly saucy, sexy, and sinister. Noir impresario and FNF prez Eddie Muller presents ten days and nights of vintage crime movies featuring actresses profiled in his classic tome Dark City Dames — newly updated, expanded, and set for release in April 2025. Joining Muller as co-host for the opening weekend will be his TCM colleague, Alicia Malone—who also graces this year’s NOIR CITY poster.
The program includes legendary noirs such as Out of the Past, The Narrow Margin, and Detour, alongside an array of dark gems and little-seen rarities like Hell’s Half Acre, The Sleeping City, and the 3D noir Inferno. In addition, the festival will be filled with special onscreen features, live music, and special guests—everything fans have come to expect from this annual celebration of noir style.
All proceeds from the festival go to the Film Noir Foundation’s mission of rescuing and restoring lost examples of the genre, which to date includes more than thirty restorations and preservations of films once feared lost.
Schedule, tickets and Passports (full-access passes) are available at NoirCity.com
