I'm a single undead gal trying to make it in the big city. I have to start somewhere and they're evil here. They don't judge. They've got necro-tempered glass. No burning up. A great medical plan, and who needs dental more than us?

Buffista Movies Across the 8th Dimension!
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Those who didn't get enough of Sebastian Stan in the recent Disney+ series can find quite a bit more of him in Monday, which I saw this afternoon at the cinema. It got to the point in the narrative where I thought to myself, "they're going to have sex AGAIN?!? Don't these characters do anything else?"
It reminded me a lot of 9 Songs actually.

Yeah, I meant The Father. Both my parents passed from dementia (or with it anyway); it's all too close.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
Oh, damn it anyway.

Ah, man, I was in post-Moderna recovery mode and completely missed this.

In happier (?) news, I finally got (some of) my thoughts on the films of the 1920s down on (virtual) paper: [link]
On to the 1930s!

McTeague is one of your favorite novels?!! I'm shocked.

I can't really imagine it being anybody's favorite novel.
If I saw a list of one thousand people naming their favorite novels I'm pretty sure you'd be the lone McTeague stalwart.

Hah, it's the favorite of the person who recommended it to me when I moved to this neighborhood. I had never heard of it before.
It makes more sense that I like it if you know that Zola is my favorite French author. It's like someone said "L'Assommoir but put it in San Francisco, and also make it a western."
It is not my favorite favorite, but it is certainly up there. Without a doubt, it has the best ending of a novel I've ever read. I've wanted someone to take on an adaptation for years.
