🚨WISEMAN POD 35🚨 A BIG ONE! we talked to the man himself, Fred Wiseman, about the second era of his career, why he's never made the Wiseman casino film, how he deals with witnessing harrowing events and the moment he saw the Chicken Man in Neiman-Marcus.

have never been shushed or anything at a movie until last night when, during the first trailer for a shitty doc, someone nudged me and asked me if i plan on talking during the entire movie. feel like LD, but arent trailers fair game for mumbling to your neighbor?

KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON (2023): I know Scorsese is no stranger to using anachronistic music (eg. Gabriel on Last Temptation), and I mostly appreciate that he's still trying new things at this age, but I still thought it was strange to use almost wall-to-wall Taylor Swift here

Hi, tenured Professor of Hitler Studies here! 👋 Just wanna clear up some things before the premiere of White Noise, a film adaptation of Don DeLillo's "satirical" portrayal of a Hitler Studies prof who doesn't know German. A thread of harmful misconceptions it has caused🧵

been thinking about the Killers of the Flower Moon trailer all day. dont wanna put the cart before the horse but it just looks so fresh, like the world has opened up for Scorsese, even at age 80. reminds me of something Kurosawa said at the Oscars when he was around the same age

Noah Baumbach’s WHITE NOISE is the opening film at the 79th Venice Film Festival.
The satirical follows Jack (Driver), a professor of Hitler studies, and his fourth wife Babette (Gerwig), both extremely afraid of death when an “airborne toxic event” suddenly disrupts their town.

Anyone disappointed with David Mamet, check out the work of Aaron Sorkin instead, a reserved yet revered filmmaker who according to his crew is nothing but one of the nicest & humblest director.

“Martin Scorsese’s The Film Foundation said that basically half of all American films made before 1950 are lost, & none of the major distributors are looking for them. Even worse, they said that more than 90% of films made before 1929 are lost forever.”

why would the assistant be telling M Night what the crux of the film was
Assistant: Ok Mr. Shyamalan these news broadcasts need to convince the main characters and the audience that the apocalypse is actually happening, which is kind of the crux of the film, so maybe they should look somewhat convincing, or at least like a news broadcast
M. Night: No

DUNE (2021): this is the moment Quebecois filmmaker Denis Villeneuve has been working towards for the last 20 years - nay, that cinema has been working towards for the last century-plus. A new dialect of the form has been forged, and its as valuable as spice.
