  Wild at Heart 1990

  ★★★½ Rewatched 20 Mar 2025

  I really do love the blaring horns that are +12db over anything else in the soundtrack.

  Prescription: Murder 1968

  Watched 12 Mar 2025 2

  First of all, I should be able to log all Columbo episodes since they're each like 70 to 95 minutes long, but society won't allow it.

  The made-for-TV movie/pilot is definitely a B-tier outing, but it's interesting that the psychologist-murderer basically lays out Columbo's unassuming schtick in a way they never do again in the series.

  Columbia's hair is alarmingly square only in this pilot. I'm not sure if that's because once the series started they wanted to make him appear even more disheleved and disorganized, or because in the 70s it was a felony to have short hair while under retirement age.

  1991: The Year Punk Broke 1992

  No way there wasn't some code word the rest of Sonic Youth had for having to take a break from Thurston.

  Red Rooms 2023

  ★★★½ Watched 16 Aug 2023 1

  A very compelling look at human vulnerability in the age of the dark web and unsecured networks! There's this fantastic scene that plays out like a contemporary and minimalist Minority Report-- dual monitor setup using Duck Duck Go, a compromised email listing, and a little bit of Tor. It was scary to know how easily I could obtain a router login, and even scarier to know how easy it would be for someone with a grudge and maliciousness could obtain my router login. Creepy and unnerving!
