From the stack
Welcome to my diary (also available on Substack), where I write about movies and TV shows I’ve watched recently and try to tenuously link them together through themes.
Salty paths and corny fields
Boomers learn to walk and teens learn to run in this week’s double review of The Salt Path and Clown in a Cornfield.
Don’t sin here, don’t surf here
You can’t sit with us! A double review of Ryan Coogler’s Sinners and Lorcan Finnegan’s The Surfer.
A fate made in Thailand
An appropriately chaotic review of The White Lotus Season Three. Major spoilers ahead.
Work sucks, I know
I try to process and refine my microdata from watching Severance Season Two as an unsevered cog in the corporate wheel.
Sex, Lies and Stephen King
The week in films, featuring Indecent Proposal, Misery, The Monkey and Showgirls. Four different directors with four different visions. Only two of them can see clearly.
Writers, dancers, couriers and diarists
The first two weeks of February are full of highs and lows with Queer, The Last Showgirl, Souleymane’s Story and Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy.
