📺 New ep! PRIMETIME gave @hwoodminotaur.bsky.social and @jonjame.bsky.social a lot to wrestle with: media ethics, ambition, ratings, spectacle and a movie neither of them expects to revisit anytime soon. Then the mood shifts 🟦 for The Becky Challenge: This Is Jeopardy!

My faves of #TIFF26:

1) MINOTAUR — dir. Andrey Zvyagintsev
2) LA BOLA NEGRA — dir. Javier Ambrossi & Javier Calvo
3) LA GRADIVA — dir. Marine Atlan
4) EVERYTIME — dir. Sandra Wollner
5) WOMAN UNKNOWN — dir. May el-Toukhy

My ranked list of all 26 films: letterboxd.com/jeratthemovi... 📽️
A family of three shares a meal at a dimly lit wooden dinner table, captured through a glass window reflecting dark trees outside. The scene shows a thoughtful man, a smiling young boy, and a gesturing woman interacting during dinner. A close-up shot of a young man with curly brown hair looking down, gently holding a brass trumpet up to his face inside a tiled bathroom or room. He is wearing an olive-green military or institutional uniform shirt with epaulets on the shoulders. Two young men funnily descend a wide stone staircase in a sunlit European alley. One slides down the central handrail while the other runs down the steps beside him. Children huddle by an oceanside pool against a vibrant orange sunset featuring a square-shaped sun.

Filmmaker, podcaster, master cinephile, and he can even paint! Is there no end to my very good friend, @moviekessler.bsky.social’s talents? He sent me this awesome painting of a scene from my all time favourite film. It’s definitely getting framed.

I was thrilled to be invited on camera yesterday for IN SEARCH OF DARKNESS ’70s to talk about some of my favorite ’70s horror movies, the trends that defined the decade, & how these films were marketed to audiences. 🎬💀

Thanks to director @davidweiner.bsky.social & the entire team for having me! 🖤🎥

The time between now and the release of JJ Abrams’ STAR TREK is equivalent to the time between the premiere of the show and the year between WRATH OF KHAN and SEARCH FOR SPOCK. Wild.

LA GRADIVA - One of the great discoveries I’ve had in ~ two decades of attending the fest. A fully in-command debut from Marine Atlan, who brings a cinematographer’s eye to an observed story of teenage desire, uncertainty and self-discovery. Even at 150 mins, I wasn’t ready for it to end. #TIFF26 📽️

Winter wonderland at #USC in the 100-degree heat. That's Steve Carel filming an episode of #Rooster yesterday, and likely dying inside that puffer coat. That's true Trojan spirit!

(Video by Xiaohongshu user Big Smoker; no way am I going outside in this heat.)
