No chatter about the new one, eh? I'm almost finished.

Which one? There were two this year right?

not managed to see either of the two ones but seems strange how quickly she seems to have swung from being extremely en vogue to out of it

Haven't seen Stars at Noon but Both Sides of the Blade is up there with Let the Sunshine In among her newer stuff, for me

Doesn't Beau Travail scoring so highly in the S&S poll mean she's still in some kind of vogue (genuine question!) Or does it cement her as a prolific artist whose recent work is doomed to be compared unfavourably with her greatest hit(s)? White Material - a sobering 13 years ago - is the last one that really did it for me, and I still think it's a bit neglected.
I liked this quote from her in a recent Sight and Sound:
To meet Marguerite Duras was to go to the kitchen and learn how to cook

stars at noon worked for me ~ it nicely captured the confusing nature of an accidental new relationship btwn qualley & allwyn's characters w the similarly confusing geopolitical backdrop--one's left uncertain of anothers motivations at every turn idk i think it pulled it off tho i can def see ppl dismiss this
plus the tindersticks title track is lovely

Cinema Guild announced that the new Blu-ray for “35 Shots of Rum” is being corrected because the wrong movie was pressed on to the disc.
Some buyers who pre-ordered it have received it, and upon playing said disc, the movie is hilariously “Road House” with Patrick Swayze.
