Equus on DVD. I think I understand it better and like it less than when I saw it back when. Seventies or eighties it was. Well-acted, well-directed in most scenes, although it wasn't necessary to actually show the blinding of the horses. But the ...

Up From Kansas, Oz in the Rearview Meet Me in St. Louis, from 1944, in which we find, among other characters, Judy Garland on the cusp of adulthood in the titular city. It seems that 1903 St. Louis is in color, like Oz, but not as scary. It’s ...

Antebellum, a horror-thriller film about both the Civil War era and the reverberations of it that are still felt and still shape our world. From 2020, aptly enough. The film's premise is ostensibly science-fictional. I use the adverb for reasons ...

On the Decline of an Empire Gangs of London, a limited series from England. Engaging but ultimately too gory; I think I'll pass on the second season. It makes the Peckinpah Westerns look like Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. In the final Godfather ...

The Wild Seed on YouTube. The 1965 film directed by Brian G. Hutton, not the Octavia Butler novel. I used to watch it on late-night TV in the seventies, hadn't seen it since. It holds up quite well. Shot in gritty black and white, with an ...

Sirens, from ‘94, once again. It’s one of those films that one watches once a year and it’s always fresh. I suppose you could call it a Lawrentian comedy. In the time between the world wars, a young Anglican pastor (Hugh Grant) and his wife ...

Huge hassle getting a new desktop and new Internet access tools up and running. But one could be getting close. Once you get it to where you can just let it do its downloads and upgrades and whatnot on its own, it’s time to step away and watch a ...

Apocalypse Now Redux, once again. It strikes me now that everything after Willard gets his assignment is more or less fantasy. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Then again, I wasn't there and I'm no Vietnam War expert. I suppose it could be ...

The Thin Red Line. Possibly—I want to say probably—the best war film ever made. I didn't know Nick Nolte, who plays a psychopathic colonel, could remind one so much of Lee Marvin. I didn't care that much for John Revolting in a small part as a ...
