  El Dorado 1988

  ★★★½ Watched 14 Feb 2025

  Aguirre the wrath of God by Carlos Saura... With the exception of Fritz Lang doing essentially the same film as La Chienne, twice (!) I haven't seen a more strange example of a great director doing an apparently unnecessary remake of another.

  Black Art: In the Absence of Light 2021

  ★★★½ Watched 10 Feb 2021

  I have followed for years, based solely on the strength of their work, artists such as Glenn Ligon, Kara Walker, Kehinde Wiley and I have some familiarity with black masters of earlier generations such as Archibald Coopley. In short before I criticize it I want to point out I may not be an expert but I'm familiar with the art they are talking about in this documentary.
  The film is ok and there will be plenty of reviews on all…
