Today's the day! "Kubrick and Control," my new book on the themes connecting the films and working life of Stanley Kubrick, is now available from @LivUniPress. This has been a passion project many years in the making. I hope you'll check it out and enjoy.

Spike does it again. I’m just in awe of his creative consistency. Loved #highesttolowest. A great take on the Kurosawa masterpiece. That entire money drop sequence - the music, the pacing, the camera work - literally gave me chills. @AppleTV

New for @FilmInt, and to celebrate the release of his superb book, THE SILENT FILM UNIVERSE, here's a salute to Ben Model (@silentfilmmusic) and his invaluable contributions to film history.

A new book review for @FilmInt: “Chris Marker: Early Film Writings.”

There’s still time @tcm! #TCMFF

For @FilmInt, I wrote about the obsessions, dark humor, and strange passions of Luis Buñuel's ÉL, now playing at @FilmForumNYC.

Good timing! Today, on Edward Everett Horton’s birthday, I received this fine book from authors Lon and Debra Davis, who were kind enough to include most of my @FilmInt article about this classic film actor and “master of the double-take.”

For @SensesofCinema, a few words on VIVA L’ITALIA!, the film of which Roberto Rossellini was most proud – which is really saying something: https://t.co/WhO1Jxmo7G

With an amazing performance by Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Mike Leigh's HARD TRUTHS is a compelling post-COVID snapshot of grief, anxiety, anger, and how we'll never know why some people do what they do. My review for @FilmInt.

Hi @tcm. I see you don’t have a guest assigned to introduce the #TCMFF screening of 2001. If you’d like someone who knows a bit about Kubrick and his work (an author on the subject, perhaps?), I’ll be there for the festival anyway. Just saying. 😁

Now we’ll never know how the baby was made. Thank you, David Lynch, for the movies and the mysteries. A one of a kind artist - and one of my absolute favorite filmmakers - who will be sorely missed. Such a tragic loss.

Received my contributor's copy of "Something Wicked: Witchcraft in Movies, Television, and Popular Culture," from @BloomsburyPub: https://t.co/FbkJnmX7Q9. Many thanks to editors Douglas Brode and Leah Deyneka.

"An excellent primer for those new to the genre and a satisfyingly novel entry for its more seasoned fans.” My review of THE SWORD (1980) for @FilmInt.

"Let's have some light on the subject.." REPULSION (1965) #PatrickWymark and #CatherineDeneuve. @Jeremyrcarr provides some insight in his 'Devils Advocates' book on the movie.

Another superb star study from author Robert Dance. My review of his "Ferocious Ambition: Joan Crawford’s March to Stardom," for @FilmInt.

I had the great opportunity to write about Woody Allen’s COUP DE CHANCE for @Cineaste_Mag. His latest and possibly last film, and one of his better recent offerings. https://t.co/FPeLCopYwY
