LOVE that our friend @JLevering4 delivered the @Brewers version of the line Bob Uecker delivers as Harry Doyle when the Indians win the pennant in “Major League.” “The Brewers win the pennant! Oh my God, the Brewers win the pennant!” Pitch-perfect homage, Levo.
THE BREWERS WIN THE PENNANT The full call of the final out from @JLevering4, as heard on the Brewers Radio Network

In memory of Bill Krohn, wanted to share this discussion about late films he contributes to from the old a_film_by internet group: the1517tocinema.blogspot.com… A good conversation itself but also a nice example of Krohn's intellect & unique position in /perspective on film history
Have been offline all day so just hearing the sad news about Bill Krohn. His example of real, down-to-earth, erudite, curious, intellectually rigorous yet open-minded film journalism/criticism has always been an inspiration to me

& has always shown up the lack of those same qualities in basically everyone else. I quote from / refer to him extensively in my book for those reasons, and because his writing on late work especially seemed to make all that so obvious. He'll be missed.

There is only one redeeming quality to the existence of YouTube shorts and that is when the algorithm recommends me clips of actors talking about doing millions of takes for David Fincher

Can we please make "smuggling the pole" a catchphrase denoting a certain kind of filmmaking
For @FilmComment, I spoke with Mariano Llinás about his dazzlingly idiosyncratic LIFE OF JORGE LUIS BORGES, which acts as both a sprawling biography of the Argentine author and a reflexive portrait of its own making. filmcomment.com/article/inte…

maybe à la Jean-Claude Biette's butterfly idea. Some filmmakers smuggle the pole, others don't xitter.cf/ebmorgan1/status/12263…
Biette on filmmakers who let the butterfly pass, and those who don't:

This week: DANIEL a film by MARINE ATLAN. 2018. 57 min. A kid gets lost at school and comes into contact with all sorts of surprising sights in this delicate featurette from a rising talent in French cinema. For one week on lecinemaclub.com.
