High Life: Claire Denis’ Sinister Space Sexcapade

“this is more of a sex movie in space than a space movie with sex.”

Jump Shot

“The static cleared and the broadcast resumed. But I didn’t see the game. I didn’t see the court or the players or the ball. The screen was filled with a close-up of Larry Bird’s face.”

Crazy Rich Asians Review

“My first draft of this review started with a disclaimer saying that, whatever my opinions of Crazy Rich Asians may be, its all-Asian cast is worth celebrating as a landmark for representation. Then my editor sent me an article explaining how the movie’s depiction of Singapore is analogous to a depiction of America only featuring white people, and now I don’t know what to think. In the context of Hollywood’s shameful history of white actors playing Asian characters, this still feels like a step in the right direction, though it’s hard to forgive the ignorance of Singaporean racial diversity. This stuff is complicated and there are two sides to every issue. Anyway, Crazy Rich Asians is awful.”

Eighth Grade review

“Eighth Grade, a movie about adolescents, is like an adolescent: energetic, emotional, and not quite as interesting as it thinks it is.”
