Thoughts on Into the Wild (2007). Being a bit older and after reading the book, the movie's evolved from that of a selfish kid to that of the beauty - and perils - of youthful idealism.… instagram.com/p/BvVSWFHAa_c/…

Thoughts on He Got Game (1998). The closest we'll get to Hoop Dreams being made into a narrative. One of Spike Lee's best. Link to read in bio. . . . . . . . . . #HeGotGame #SpikeLee… instagram.com/p/BvQHneJADDK/…

Thoughts on The Face of Another (1966). Rounding out Hiroshi Teshigahara's unofficial trilogy, the sci-fi drama contains images that'll burn into your mind. Link to read in… instagram.com/p/BvAq5OPgrCR/…

Thoughts on Logan Lucky (2017). The Southern version of Ocean’s 11 just doesn’t live up to its predecessor. Link to read in bio. . . . . . . . . . . . . #ChanningTatum #AdamDriver… instagram.com/p/Bu7hvclgI7g/…

Thoughts on Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1961). The movie's okay, but the remastering on Netflix is so good with colors so vibrant, it's like watching a Wes Anderson film. Link to read… instagram.com/p/Bu489o2g5Xq/…

Thoughts on Command Decision (1948). I was expecting a classic WWII action film and instead found a cerebral chamber drama exploring the politics of war. Link to read in… instagram.com/p/BunBYeTAXlQ/…

Thoughts on Logan (2017). I don’t enjoy 99% of comic book movies, but next to The Dark Knight trilogy, this is one of the best. Link to read in bio . . . . . . . . . #Logan #Marvel… instagram.com/p/BuFjz_CAGos/…

Thoughts on Cloak and Dagger (1946). Fritz Lang's underrated WWII spy thriller is up there with the best from the era, whether Hitchcock or Carol Reed; confirming that Lang's by the far… instagram.com/p/Bt7P3iKA7Bl/…

Thoughts on Breakdown (1997). A close to perfect Hitchcockian throwback that's gotten much better with age. Link to read in bio.  . . . . . . . . . #Breakdown #KurtRussel #JonathanMostow… instagram.com/p/BtuUdajABKR/…

Thoughts on Top Hat (1935). Beyond the classic "Cheek to Cheek" song & dance number, this is another snoozer from Astaire/Rogers. Link to read in bio. . . . . . . . . . #TopHat… instagram.com/p/Bthh9IcAMw5/…

Thoughts on Love on the Run (1979). The final film in Truffaut's Antoine Doinel series, and the title character somehow manages to be even more insufferable. Link to read in… instagram.com/p/Bte_3EXA2Nf/…

Thoughts on Jackie (2016). Pablo Larraín abandons the traditional bio-pic in favor of a Malicky deep dive into Jackie Kennedy days after JFK's… instagram.com/p/BtSED6-HAPW/…

Thoughts on Batman Begins (2005). Nolan joins the  crème de la crème of summertime trilogies - Back to the Future, Indiana Jones, and Star Wars. Link to read in… instagram.com/p/BsycK6Bn02R/…

Thoughts on Wind River (2017). For a film that hopes to shed light on the plight of Native American communities, this is an incredibly - and needlessly - white movie. Link to read in… instagram.com/p/BsqyE-MA08V/…

Thoughts on Detroit (2017). A film that starts out strong and then descends into darkness as it spends the majority of its time focused on the torture of innocent women and black men;… instagram.com/p/Bsb-f4kgDJa/…

Thoughts on The Love Parade (1929). Ernst Lubitsch beats Bollywood by having random - though lovely - song and dance numbers in this pre-code film. Link to read in… instagram.com/p/BsQ2aZog0nW/…

Thoughts on Welcome to Leith (2015). A surreal and terrifying documentary of how a bunch of Neo-Nazis attempt to take over a small North Dakota town. Recommended by t.stop_d. Link to read… instagram.com/p/BsKHIsUgEop/…

Check out a great interview I did with @Fatelink

Thanks for sharing @ThatMomentIn!

Thoughts on Little Women (1933). George Cukor's rendition was pretty underwhelming, though it might be because of Katharine Hepburn's insufferable character. Link to read in… instagram.com/p/BrEgHFmH2eY/…
