  Eephus 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 25 Mar 2025

  Ultimately successful at what it’s trying to do, but after the sun went down rather than turn sentimental it kinda started to drag. Although it deserves five stars because it takes place on my birthday. 

  Anyways I’m a man in my 30s whose primary source of friendships is recreational sports (soccer).

  Ed Wood 1994

  ★★★★½ Rewatched 27 Aug 2024

  Seen at Film Forum followed by a Q&A with screenwriter Larry Karaszewski, moderated by Film Forum Repertory Artistic Director Bruce Goldstein

  One of the best Q&As I’ve ever been to. Larry Karaszewski is hilarious, and there was such a joyous mood throughout the whole theater. Bruce Goldstein kept gushing about the film (he introduced it as the greatest ever movie about making movies), and he didn’t seem to want to stop taking more audience questions. Everyone was just there on…
