"[Lav] Diaz made only one take of each shot through his fixed frame, and each set-up is calibrated to convey a single idea. The result is a bracing semantic economy..." Revisit Maxwell Paparella (@44getting) on MAGELLAN: mubi.com/notebook/posts/the-…

"As the mass-market American film industry continues to work itself through irrelevancy and into oblivion, it seems right that Knoxville would be the site of a renewed focus on a regional, independent American cinema, inviting those from outside the metropoles to put their visions of the country on the screen, so that we might see it more clearly." Maxwell Paparella (@44getting) reports from Tennessee's Film Fest Knox: mubi.com/notebook/posts/new-…

I'm shocked—this is a tremendous honor. February is Screen Slate's 15th anniversary. It's grown from a solo project to encompass the work of hundreds of contributors: editors, writers, devs, designers, listing updaters. Plus: the best readership on the planet. Thank you @nyfcc

For @mubinotebook, I wrote about Paul Thomas Anderson's fascination with Thomas Pynchon, and the ways in which filmmaker and novelist, from INHERENT VICE to ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER, mobilise a subversive nostalgia for the California they once knew: mubi.com/en/notebook/posts/i…

Rafaela Bassili (@sallyjaygorce) writes on Kleber Mendonça Filho’s THE SECRET AGENT, a film that "anthropophagizes the American paranoid thrillers of the 1970s to make something funny, sad, grotesque, beautiful, and truly Brazilian." mubi.com/en/notebook/posts/w…

no-one thinks about experimental film aesthetics like Phil Coldiron -- "It would be naïve to imagine that art can do politics in any meaningful sense, but we might at least expect it to picture the world, clarifying or condensing or travestying or rejecting it"
Reporting on this year's NYFF Currents slate, Phil Coldiron explores how Radu Jude, Alexandre Koberidze, New Red Order, and others propose imagery to oppose the present. mubi.com/en/notebook/posts/y…
