I've sitten through a bunch of Lav Diaz, but they are much more... 'fun', than this is. Still, it's undoubtedly an impressive achievement.

Woah, a bunch of these look super interesting. Never even heard of the guy before (though I remember admiring the poster for Roadie over in the claustrophobic caricature thread).

He's Altman Junior, basically. There's a bunch I haven't seen since they were released, but at the top I'd put Choose Me, then Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle, Equinox, Breakfast of Champions, Mortal Thoughts, Remember My Name, The Moderns, Trouble in Mind, The Secret Lives of Dentists, Afterglow.
Roadie is not well regarded, but I'd like to see Songwriter.

There was a big turnout for Welcome to LA last night, so I'd advise advance tix for any screenings w/ Rudolph and his signature star Keith Carradine doing Q&A's.

apparently the Video Free Brooklyn store *will* be reopening as was promised, oh, 18 months ago
Update time! We're very sorry for the long delay in re-opening @vfbrooklyn at the Alamo Drafthouse. We intended to be open much sooner, but the initial plan for the store design ran into some serious design and logistical snags. We needed to rethink, redesign and start over.— Alamo Drafthouse NYC (@AlamoNYC) May 4, 2018

if anybody hasn't been to the reopened film forum yet, i give it a tentative thumbs up. those new seats are massively more comfortable, maybe the most comfortable i've ever encountered. but, surely there are fewer seats in the room? which would bode poorly for things selling out. :-/

i was in 3 last night for "grisbi" and i could swear it was fewer seats - i mean the new ones are wider and the room is the same size so surely....? but maybe!

As there was no soundtrack/score on the print, FSLC ran last night's 7pm Dulac silent feature in total silence. Terrible idea. Put on a record to drown out the patrons' yawns and gurgling stomachs.
