  Shockproof 1949

  ★★★★ Watched 20 Mar 2025

  In the 40s you could call anyone “baby” 6 times ina conversation and it’s totally normal and cool 😎

  love on the run

  anyway this is way better than the romantic stuff he does. But that stuff is pretty good too.

  ★★★ Rewatched 20 Mar 2025

  Some of the lighting in this film is Ed Wood level bad. Maybe I don’t get it!

  2001: A Space Odyssey 1968

  ★★★★★ Watched 30 Jul 2018

  70mm film print @ Museum of Modern Image. 

  
  This is why film should never die. The sound nearly blew my eardrums out but I don’t mind if it’s for something this incredible.

  Sid and Nancy 1986

  ★★★½ Watched 03 Apr 2018 2

  Once the Sex Pistols leave the stage , and it becomes the Sid and Nancy show, the film really shines bright. Just takes a little while to get there. I personally found the characters to be irritating and hard to watch. But maybe that was the point. 

  Also contains one of Deakin’s best shots - - -
