Saw Nosferatu at the movies today. Very effective and stylish remake of the 1922 movie. Then read the “Children of the Night” chapter of the Queer as Folklore. Great to compare and contrast!
Second movie about voting in Rome in two days !
Conclave - with wonderful performances from Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, Isabella Rossellini, John Lithgow, and many others.
At the Penthouse Cinema, Brooklyn, after dinner at Salty Pidgin.
Incredible black and white Italian feminist film - There’s Still Tomorrow. At the Lighthouse Cuba with Bill.
Super delicious post movie dinner Supra restaurant.
Back where it started 27 years ago, on our first date at the Embassy cinema. “LA Confidential” then, “Gladiator II” this time.
Went to see “Baby Done” at the fabulous Lighthouse Cuba Cinema last night:
One of the most remarkable things about Baby Done, other than Rose Matafeo’s glorious performance, is that Zoe’s edges aren’t sanded down at all. She’s unashamedly ambitious and stubborn; she suffers no bullshit. She’s the kind of character you can imagine making producers nervous, the kind of person you’d either warm to at a party or walk away from immediately.
She’s totally someone I’d warm to - and the movie is amazing.

A Monster Calls - moving, picturesque and truthful exploration of grief and acceptance - and the power of stories. #NZIFF
