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. liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk/doi/book/10.38…

"[Max] Ophüls and [cinematographer Franz] Planer take their time taking it all in: the facial revelations of the characters, their exchanges, a firm sense of space..." Revisit @Jeremyrcarr on Ophüls's 1933 feature LIEBELEI (playing today @metrograph.) mubi.com/en/notebook/po…

It was a pleasure and a privilege to write about one of my favorite films for @SensesofCinema, a quintessential 1970s "car movie" - VANISHING POINT: sensesofcinema.com/2026/cteq/vani…

I apologize for the shameless self-promotion, but hopefully this 2017 profile I wrote for @SensesofCinema conveys just how much he and his movies have meant to me. sensesofcinema.com/2017/great-dir…

It's incredibly sad to read of Béla Tarr's passing. Discovering his work was a revelation and I still rank SÁTÁNTANGÓ among the 10 best films I've ever seen. He was a singular cinematic artist.

Kicking off the new year with this look at BUILD MY GALLOWS HIGH, OUT OF THE PAST and the inevitabilities of noir, for @FilmInt. filmint.nu/from-build-my-…

@PamzzPlace @AppleTV Agreed!

@Jeremyrcarr @AppleTV The music was everything!!

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. filmint.nu/ben-model-sile…

A new book review for @FilmInt: “Chris Marker: Early Film Writings.” filmint.nu/chris-marker-e…

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. filmint.nu/luis-bunuels-e…

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: sensesofcinema.com/2025/cteq/viva…

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. filmint.nu/mike-leigh-har…

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. 😁 liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk/doi/book/10.38…

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.
