what bums me about the idea of online, streamed festivals is that I can no longer dramatically walk out of a screening and pontificate about how bad it is to whomever I catch idling in front of the cinema while smoking three cigarettes
I just close the tab
my pleasure
Still thinking about that person who shouted during the opening logos of a P&I screening, “Production companies are not your friends!!” #Cannes

Orgulloso de construir una retro que captura la esencia de una institución y recorre del espíritu de la no-ficción explorando el mar mientras este nos devuelve la mirada ⛵️
De Flaherty a Alsharif. De Vaz a Frampton, pasando por Mekas, Straub, Lye...🌊
Todos invitados! 🏄♀️
🌊 Hacemos un viaje fílmico por la memoria y el movimiento del agua con “Oleajes: los gestos del mar”.
✨ A través de cuatro programas de cortos y una proyección especial en formato fílmico en CDMX, la retrospectiva recorre desde los hermanos Lumière hasta Abbas Kiarostami.

(my final ever post on here until M*sk is out.) I've taken the leap and joined Substack – can't keep myself away from criticism. Monthly texts in English, free access for all. Any $ from paid subscriptions go towards my rent, food, bills and medical needs.

Yeah. I'm outta here for good or at least until this swine is no longer in charge of it, and hope the rest of you are, too. See you on Bluesky.

The article seems to confirm that it was the smoke from the LA fires that got to him. The fires have taken so much from us
David Lynch Dies: 'Twin Peaks', 'Blue Velvet', 'Elephant Man' & 'Eraserhead' Visionary Was 78 deadline.com/2025/01/david-l…
my first lynch film was blue velvet on TV at 8. one of those moments when an unsupervised kid stumbles onto an object that opens them to something they didn't even know could exist. my mom lied to me that the plot of the film is set inside the ear in the grass so I could cope...

I'm very sad, of course, but living nearly eight decades while creating art made with shockingly few compromises to outside interests, and *then* having that art be meaningful to a vast number of people, is as close to a 'W' as anyone gets in this life.
so, friends... I'll slowly be moving over to Blu*sky, as I'm feeling increasingly uncomfortable with who runs this website... still, I'd love to stay in touch with my mutuals here so please drop me your username in the comments – I'm flvd.bsky.social 💫
My ballot for this year's edition of La Internacional Cinefila – as always, very humbled and greatful for @rogerkoza's generosity and trust to put me amongst so many incredible peers, and for his titanic yearly effort to make the greatest list out there.
not on my "watching Nosferatu as a Romanian" bingo card:
1) usage of anti-roma slurs (I did expect them to be orientalized tho)
2) Bran Castle nowhere in sight
3) Orlok being styled after Matei Basarab
4) Thomas teleporting from Hunedoara to Moldovița
5) Mungiu references????
This fall, after five years and over a 100 articles, I have decided to part ways with Films in Frame.
My last article for them took the shape of a series of letters to Chantal Akerman.
Thank you for following my work over the years. News to come.
