"Why do you think beauty is a stone on the beach for any passerby to pick up? Beauty is something wonderful and strange that the artist creates in torment and out of chaos. It is not easy to recognize at first. For that you must have knowledge, and sensitiveness, and imagination."

#8 FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT 1940. My favorite Hitchcock. Joel McRea gets a promotion, a name change, and a ticket to the diplomatic ramp up of WWII, and suddenly in the midst of an assassination, or is it a kidnapping? Tension, chases, fistfights, romance.

Amy Goodman will STEAL THIS STORY at Cinema 21 April 24-29. www.cinema21.com/movie/ST0000...

The new NUREMBERG is a terrible film but reminds us to return to Stanley Kramer's classic JUDGEMENT AT NUREMBERG. Here is Burt Lancaster's terrific mea culpa speech, so appropriate today. Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

#11 HIS GIRL FRIDAY 1940. Howard Hawks, Rosalind Russell, Cary Grant, Ben Hecht; catty, offensive, funny, sexist then and now, fast-paced, hilarious, twists and turns. Seen THE FRONT PAGE? This is better.

#9 ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN 1976. The reporting ended a presidency but Redford and Hoffman convinced 10s of thousands to pursue journalism as a career pumping legitimacy and credibility into a field which had previously been disparaged and disappointing.

#4 CITIZENFOUR 2014. Laura Poitras meets Edward Snowden the NSA contractor who leaked classified documents revealing the existence of global surveillance programs to the NY Times and Guardian. Google them both then you'll want to watch this film.

#5 FIVE STAR FINAL 1931. Edward G. Robinson with a wink, a smirk, a casual glance gobbled up the camera. Here he's a big city editor fighting for control of the story, of the paper amidst blackmail, corruption, murder, bribery, suicide. Pre-code adult material not for the light of heart.

It's a John Barrymore week here, tonight with DINNER AT EIGHT by George Cukor in 1933. Barrymore by this time was both insane with alcoholism AND the greatest actor in the world. Barrymore knew it, the crew and actors knew it, the media knew it, the audience knew it. And he was terrific.

From the fabulous Laura Poitras - the story of her doppleganger, Seymour Hersh.

This Administration’s war of choice in Iran is about to be a quagmire. Without a set plan, strategy, or definition of victory, this unauthorized war continues to put our servicemembers lives at risk and worsens the affordability crisis for working families across the country.

"It's unrealistic to take a deep dive into all of those right away." 𝐏𝐡𝐢𝐥 𝐑𝐚𝐬𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐧 addresses the elephant in the room: Social media overwhelm. From TikTok and X to emerging platforms like Blue Sky and RedNote, trying to master every channel is a recipe for burnout. The solution

Love this class analysis of the oscars and the celebrity class, who are just a distraction that is used by the capitalist ruling classes to further propagandise poor working class people. These celebrities love going to the oscars to suck each others' dicks and say all kinds of meaningless bullshit.

This could be a good moment for someone to say, "Okay, everyone who pushed for this guy needs to have their influence cut away" but it's more likely this will be misconstrued as, "Democrats won't do what it takes to win" Anyway time to forget about this guy and focus on dumb Canada stuff.
