Growing up in France, I borrowed La marque jaune from the library when I was 9 or so. Found it tedious, promptly returned it and got something funnier (probably Dragon Ball). Tried again as an adult, similar outcome 🙂↔️
A BETTER TOMORROW is nearly 40 years old and this scene is still one of the best examples of intercutting between slow motion and 24fps I've ever seen. Works so well, and I think this whole sequence (with the build up and guns in plant pots) is one of the best action set-pieces John Woo's ever done.
Hey! I'm Baxter and I've got a blog called Tsundoku Diving that's my little heaven for fans of Japanese media.
There's deep dive essays, subs for obscure films, scanlations of alt manga, an archive of movie pamphlets, 150+ hand picked recs, and even some of my own fiction!
Jump in & swim around :)
You can go, okay, historical drama, feudal life was terrible! Except this is a radical leftist comic in an alt-manga magazine that really struck a chord with the sometimes violent student movement in 1960s Japan that was protesting the Japan-US Security Treaty & other nationalistic right wing shit.
BREAKING: Qatar, Egypt and the US have announced that mediation efforts to reach a ceasefire agreement in Gaza have succeeded.

No idea how the deal went down but I'm gonna say it was a case of right place at the right time. The Hong Kong government has been really pushing the city's soft power assets, its cinema in particular, so I'm not surprised if they had a hand in persuading Kowloon Development.
Les garde-côtes grecs ont embarqué neuf demandeurs d'asile dans un bateau, les ont emmenés au large, puis les ont jetés par-dessus bord et les ont regardé se noyer. La barbarie raciste aux frontières de l'Europe, comme en écho à celle qui fait rage à Gaza.

Showa 1944-1953: A History of Japan
I just finished "Showa 1944-1953: A History of Japan" by Shigeru Mizuki. It's the third installement in the series. It's truly remarkable work. We follow both Mizuki's life as a Japanese student (previous volumes), then soldier, then artist, as well as the global events of the years covered. 1/2

Rachel Cooper
Movie is filled with amazinh sets and shots
Watch Night of the Hunter, it's as good as everyone says. Immaculate in its intention and message, gorgeous/ perfect Rachel Cooper is the best.
"You know, when you're little, you have more endurance than God is ever to grant you again. Children are man at his strongest. They abide."
A man says "I just finished another watch of Hunter x Hunter and I have now spent 3 hours thinking very hard about what my nen ability would be." Another man replies "you're 38..." The first man goes back to poring over an arcane shit of rules and says "yes, I have factored that into my calculations."
It occurs to me that the little heart this guy is holding my be a gift--So maybe this one IS a Christmas Painting.
French poster for the movie Hard Boiled (A toute épreuve in French). Chow Yun Fat holds a shotgun in his right hand and a baby in his left hand.
Showing off this humongous French poster for Hard Boiled from my basement. 60x120 cm of brutal chivalry. The baby makes me chuckle but somehow the poster still manages to pull it off.

The current discussion on US health insurance/Mangione made me think of Omar’s line in the Wire :“I got the shotgun, you got the briefcase” youtu.be/P3i36ybA8Ms?...
Mazen al-Hamada, an anti-Bashar al-Assad activist, was murdered a few days before the fall of the regime. His story is infinitely sad. www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7408753
Luigi Mangione posted online about having spondylolisthesis, a spinal condition that can be extremely painful and debilitating. I talked to other people with the disorder about how hard it is to get proper treatment within the U.S. healthcare system:

J’imagine les touristes dans un lycée français des années 90: cours d’EPS avec un prof qui a la clope au bec, céleri remoulade à la cantine, dame du CDI qui réclame le silence…
Done, take care ❤️
