Found in a second hand copy of the French edition of Godard par Godard.
So proud of Matt Thompson on the publication of On Life Support with @uminnpress.bsky.social. A terrific contribution to eco-cinema studies!
Letty Lynton at the Revue. Crawford is luminous, the costumes and sets fantastic, but also… is not a film about how to murder an inconvenient foreigner and get away with it a little unsettling?
Some criminal mastermind stole the spots off the Giraffe building! Hoping the Mayor is willing to pay the ransom to get them back.
Craziest detail from the Taylor - Travis wedding (according to a reliable source) is that they recreated the Mars Bar circa 1997, including to period accurate yayo party favors. Crazy if true.
Most American thing of all is the dude having to play the fife with a concussion. Happy Birthday USA.
@cbcpitchbot.bsky.social AI investment platform pretending to be a CBC News segment.
Dialectics: while Clavicular roamed the streets of Paris, this garbage bin also spontaneously manifested.
Was just in France for the canicule (not the reason why) and can only chuckle a bit at the absolute commitment to moderation in Toronto... Key cool people.
Leenalchi at Lee’s Palace! If they come to town don’t miss them!
JR’s Pont Neuf. Couldn’t hear the soundtrack or smell the smell (senses blunted perhaps by the fête de la musique) but it was a fun walk.
@slavagreenberg.bsky.social on livability without remedy in his fab talk on trip time, crip time, and pain in psychedelic cinema and tv. Can’t wait for the book!
What troubles me today is that the musée Cantini owns several incredible drawings by Artaud and have a really nicely curated show “par une langage échapée” featuring a lot of surrealist works yet no Artaud…

Fantastic book launch for @emilygdoucet.bsky.social’s extraordinary Inventing Nader.: A History of Photographic Firsts.
