I love that my timeline is practically a love letter to Sam Neill. A movie of his that shouldn't get buried in all of his tributes is Hunt for the Wilderpeople. Genuinely a hilarious and heartwarming movie that's severely underrated 🤍

I LOVE BOOSTERS: big fan of Boots Riley's creativity and skill, and thankfully that's in full effect here. Such a vibrant, funny, imaginative and satirical takedown of capitalism, led by terrific performances and energetic direction throughout. Had a blast with it. #ILoveBoosters

Everyone left the HAMNET showings of Burbank 16 shellshocked and heavily sobbing into a lobby of children dressed as FIVE NIGHTS AS FREDDY animatronics which is an experience you can’t really replicate at home

HAMNET: Sharing a movie with a room full of strangers is my favorite drug no matter what. Sharing a movie with a room full of strangers having a mental breakdown? Straight in my veins.

Theres a really loving quote spoken by Ralph Fiennes in #28YearsLater thats probably the best quote in movies ive heard since a while back.
And in context of the scene that follows, at the hands of a less experienced (filmmaker) it could easily elicit laughter, but Boyle made it one of the best cinematic moments in recent years about confronting death & finding peace within it.
This is the kind of moments that reminds me why we love & breathe movies.

THE LIFE OF CHUCK is a wonder and @flanaganfilm’s best yet. An adaptation to make the King proud, it’s a magical gem to make you love life and movies in equal measure. Bravo, Mike, you smashed it.
