My new music video for @juliacumming_'s 'My Life' single on @partisanrecords has been out for one week. It was a hugely fun one to put together. Please enjoy the FULL video here!
It's mostly one single shot (take 14, since you asked) and I couldn't even begin to make a vid like this without an AMAZING crew who worked their socks off. Full credits in previous posts and eternal thanks to them all.

People out here acting like 80s and 90s kids regularly watched movies from the 50s and 60s.

Film literacy among young people is at an all time low. My gen z students are shockingly unfamiliar with many key landmarks of modern cinema that were released in the 1990s

The solution to the theatrical problem is very simple. Extend the time before it goes to streaming. Make it 180 days. 6 months. If you don't watch it in theaters you won't get to see it for a long time. Studios have devalued their product by letting the consumer know there's no urgency. They're going to see it for "free" later. They've cheapened the business into a buffet and violated basic supply and demand.

The closure of the Cinerama Dome and Arclight Hollywood, for six years now, still feels like an open wound for me. I genuinely spent more time in those cinemas than anywhere else in L.A. and it remains very sad that this moviegoing mecca can't come back. I still hold out hope.

@TheAustinWalker @Lilfilm A) I don’t think it’s for sale. B) I think you overestimate how much money I have lying around x

@edgarwright @Lilfilm Time to take Reitman and Tarantino’s leads! More filmmakers should own LA movie theaters.

@BrandonMH @BilgeEbiri @Lilfilm Absolutely no knock on the repertory scene, which between American Cinematheque, The New Bev and Vista and many more is in rude health. And I am a frequent visitor.
English

@BilgeEbiri @edgarwright @Lilfilm Fair enough but anyone complaining about the quality of the motion picture exhibition scene in LA isn't paying much attention; it's a far better town to watch movies in than it was a little under a decade ago when I arrived, with rep programming on most nights that outpaces NYC.

@MatthewACherry Yes, between the Landmark on Pico and the Arclight Hollywood going, two great places to premiere an indie movie are gone.

Man the landmark theater too. So many great places gone.

The continued closure of the Cinerama Dome is a genuine tragedy for the city of Los Angeles. Reopen the Dome. Save the Dome. — Grassroots Cinerama Dome campaign on pause following incident at theater latimes.com/entertainment-…

@ThePCCLondon I saw the whole damn thing at the @newbeverly once and it was glorious.

THE MOVIE ORGY is a legendary near five-hour triumph comprised of commercials, news reels, clips from feature films, TV bloopers, and much more from Joe Dante, and you can see it in all its glory on 13th April! 🎟️ buff.ly/vlF6DkZ

What an incredible night at the @am_cinematheque on Saturday to celebrate the 5th anniversary of my @sparksofficial documentary ‘The Sparks Brothers’.
Because of COVID I wasn’t able to do any press in the USA when the film opened in 2021 and so this public Q&A with myself together with Ron and Russell Mael was a first!
Thanks to the amazing Fred Armisen for moderating and for so many ex and current members of Sparks for attending; Earle Mankey, Harley Feinstein, David Kendrick, Les Bohem, Christi Haydon, Dean Menta and Evan Weiss.
Also to many contributors to the doc who were able to come; @jakefogelnest, Pamela Des Barres, Pamela Jane Lowe, Larry DuPont, Lance Rock, Lena Mesiano and the amazing Weird Al Yankovich.
Huge thanks, as ever, to the amazing team at the Egyptian Theatre for making this dream screening a reality. And to the great audience too! If you were there, let us know if you had as much as a blast as we did.
Sparks Forever!
