    Mickey 17

    ★★★

    R Patz x2 is pretty great and I’m deeply impressed with the work in making each Mickey unique. But overall this felt like a revisit of the parts of Okja that didn’t work for me plus a lackluster shadow of Snowpiercer.

  • Basquiat

    Basquiat

    ★★★½

    A little more typical biopic than I would’ve guessed based on Diving Bell and Before Night Falls but what a freaking amazing cast! Some great moments but felt more like inside baseball for art scene bigwigs than about Basquiat and his thoughts/motivations/passions. Kinda felt like I understood David Bowie’s Andy Warhol (fantastic) than our supposed true focus.

    The tiny grin Toshiro Mifune flashes after defeating Hyoe Tadokoro might the sexiest thing I’ve seen in days.

    Got to see this on a big screen, complete with intermission. Spent a ridiculous amount of time pondering how exactly to describe Toshiro Mifune. Feral bravado. Churlish sincerity. Guileless buffoonery. Whatever, I adore it.
