So, naturally, I’m making it through the piles of movies I’ve bought. Just finished my Czech pile (The Painted Bird is amazing!) and now am onto my Quebec pile. After that, hopefully I can return to regularly weekly posting of reviews, especially since a 2-3 page film review is one of the assignments for my capstone course this semester so I can maybe get a head start on that.
Of course, the wonderful folks at Film at Lincoln Center have partnered with Music Box Films to release the 6-hour miniseries version of Mysteries of Lisbon by Raúl Ruiz so all things considered, I think I’m managing to not spend too much money, despite their extension of Bacurau and virtual releases of Mr. Oizo’s Deerskin, Albert Serra’s Liberté, the new Pedro Costa, a documentary from Nanni Moretti and a restoration of his early work Caro Diario, this interesting looking film On a Magical Night, the restoration of Béla Tarr’s Sátántangó, and their upcoming release of Abel Ferrara’s Tommaso.
I’m here for all that film culture.
