Sweet Home Chicago

Everything is a mess. I don’t just mean now, though right now as I write this and right now as you read this, there’s some degree of messiness. I also don’t mean things are a mess in the political sense, even though they one hundred percent are. It’s more personal than that, and it always […]

Bread and Circuses

We don’t see many epics in film these days. To be clear, I’m not talking about big movies, because we already get those on the regular. Deadpool & Wolverine is a big movie, but it’s not an epic. Twisters is a big movie, just like Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, and just like Kingdom of the Planet of […]

Doubting Thomas

As a movie dork, one of the most thrilling things for me is when a typecast actor defiantly refuses to be typecast. We humans rely on pattern recognition to try (and often fail) to make sense of the world. When things are as they’re supposed to be, we’re content. When the pattern breaks, it can […]

Bisexual Space Monster Rom-Com A-Go-Go

Over drinks with a friend last weekend, talk turned to movies.* We discussed what we liked, what we didn’t, what would be forgotten, and what would become future classics. As so often happens, the conversation drifted into genres. He asked me what I’d thought the most wide-ranging and versatile genre of movie was.** My answer […]

The Light of Their Lives

We are firmly in a vibes era. That’s particularly true now, in this cursed year of our Lord 2024. We’re in the midst of a vicious Presidential campaign, and the vast majority of ads, speeches, and platforms aren’t really based on concrete and coherent policy arguments. They’re based on how the candidates and their operations […]

Turning Up to Eleven

Donald Trump is one of the twenty-first century’s most important people. I don’t just mean from a fame standpoint, though I’d bet you could show a picture of him to nearly anyone on the planet, and they would recognize him. When I say he’s important, I mean as a person who influences the course of […]

Live From New York

As I write this, the first episode of what would come to be known as “Saturday Night Live” aired nearly fifty years ago. On October 11, 1975, one of the most influential shows in the history of television premiered. It would go on to spawn hundreds of episodes, dozens of stars, scores of iconic moments, […]

Are racing movies also sports movies? I think so. Even when the focus is someone piloting a car, motorcycle, bicycle, scooter, hydrofoil, or hovercraft, those kinds of films share a great deal with the sports genre. So much so that they feel like a subgenre. At the end of the day, they share multiple tropes, […]

Inner Character

Very, very, very few people make it through their teen years unscathed. Some people don’t make it through at all. It’s bad enough being a teenager, the acne eruptions, the hormonal explosions, and all the attendant drama that comes with the age. Suppose there’s more than that? Suppose there’s an additional weight you need to […]
