I learned one main thing from that podcast, and that is that I can't stand Taubin. The talk about whether the travelogue was 'a film' was amazingly awful.

Saw Strange Victory on Sunday in Brooklyn. Fine liberal, integrationist propaganda, drew a good crowd. Also impossible not to be depressed about in the current historical moment.

It's worth seeing. The review mentions Rivette, and yeah, there's a couple of that kind of sequences, and they're great (and by far the greatest thing in it).

going to be out of town for most of next week so i'm missing much of the akerman retro here (including the musical, which i think i'm most bummed about)

yeah keep an eye out for that in future

metrograph is a nice theater but how do they make money
― 龜, Thursday, 7 April 2016 02:50 (ten years ago)
just opened, maybe they're not.
― we can be heroes just for about 3.6 seconds (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 7 April 2016 03:45 (ten years ago)
My totally unsupported assumption is that they are a passion project.
IFCis trying to add six more screens.

Metrograph sells liquor and has a restaurant eh? I wonder if the movies are the loss leader
― i believe that (s)he is sincere (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 7 April 2016 04:59 (ten years ago)
it's even harder to make money on restaurants than movies

my comment about metrograph was also related to the fact that they showed like 100 movies in 3 days for opening, and they were all shown at weird times like only showing at 1 PM on a friday
― 龜, Thursday, 7 April 2016 15:32 (ten years ago)
I am gonna try to see some of those japanese musicals fer sure
I have no idea how metrograph is gonna make it but i hope they do!
