What is The Last Movie You Watched?

Spike Lee is a fucking moron and an anti-white racist.

A view that tells us more about you than it does about Spike Lee.

I like some of his films, not others, but he is clearly a gifted director so to call him a 'moron' is juvenile. The issue of race cannot be ignored, neither in the UK nor the US, and if Spike Lee makes provocative films, that is his choice, but perhaps he needs to if these issues are to be discussed, as indeed happened with his film Do the Right Thing (1989) which remains one his best. By offering a black view on race, he is not making films to make you or anyone else comfortable, though he has also made light-hearted films too. And if he is an 'anti-white racist' why has he made so many films with established white actors?

I watched Three Identical Strangers the other day. Very powerful and well made documentary, but quite disturbing.

Did you watch all 12 hours+ in one session?

Lady Bird (Greta Gerwig, 2017)
This nice, gentle film is about a 17-18 year old girl in Sacramento who negotiates the route out of her High School and Family to university in New York, even though she shows little aptitude for academic work of any kind. It is a nice film with flawless acting from Laurie Metcalf (one of the original members of the Steppenwolf Theatre in Chicago) and Saoirse Ronan, and really nice is all one can say, though not nice enough for Australia which censored the film because of bad language (in Australia!).

I WISH! Did you? I watched 2-2-1-3. I love the whole thing.

Velvet Buzzsaw. Disappointing movie. Jake Gyllenhaal's great performance couldn't even save it.

Tangerine (Sean Baker, 2015)

This film was broadcast on Film 4 last night, and I didn't think I would last more than five minutes with its ghastly screaming queens, but ended up, in a manner of speaking, hooked to the end. I don't know if this is an accurate depiction of the chaotic, feral life many young transgenders live, the taxi driver with an obsession is probably closer to true life than many men would admit, and it does no favours to that part of West Hollywood I assume it was shot in -some of it on an Apple iPhone. One could attempt to insert morals, but the film does not, preferring to state matters of fact rather than hint at any judgement of the characters involved, all of whom are believabe. I understand a tangerine is a gift Americans give to each other on Christmas Eve -? never heard of this before- and while there is no tangerine in the film (unless it is on the dinner tabe in the taxi driver's aparment), in a touching moment at the end of the film when the two main characters are done arguing with each other, one offers the other the loan of her wig. The absurd made rational, the cold reality of life on the streets given, perhaps temporary, warmth.
