Another film that's suffering a targeted lack of marketing and biased reviews is Digger. Partly because it's a tricky film to market and partly because everyone making the world miserable right now would really rather you didn't enjoy it.

Don't read too much about it, just accept that you will be lost for a little while but trust that the filmmaker will find you and put you on a very satisfying path again. They do and it's great actually. 10/10

also, if you do see it, I'm obligating you to tell me about it if you're looking for somewhere to yap about it without spoiling others

It's not tonally, or even visually like Huckabees. But it can be described as an existential comedy in the sense that your characters are less characters than they are concepts. Ideologies in human bodies.

If you like a good, satisfying reveal and don't mind— or even enjoy— not knowing where a story is about to take you. You'll like this.

Some reviewers will call it heavy handed. I don't disagree, but that's not unintentional. Watch and you'll know what i mean.

If i can like it to anything without giving away the best of it, I'll say this. It belongs, for me, in a category of film people sometimes call "existential comedy." The most famous film i know that belongs to this category is probs I Heart Huckabees.

What kind of movie is it? I don't want to say specifically because it's easy to spoil. The best I can do is say this... it's got the tonality of a film like Triangle of Sadness which has a quality that belongs more to euro films than American ones.

American audiences are apt to find it too complicated and pretentious. It's not. It's very clever and I recommend to anyone who reads or enjoys live theatre— this a film you will like.

so pls allow me to sell you on going to see this film if no one else will.

got a little preview of Klara this week 😭 super looking forward to this film

I don't want artists to consume other people's art to reproduce it in their medium. I want artists to consume other people's art to be inspired to make their own art in their own mediums.

anyway, pay attention to the kinds of people who laud realism in art. you'll start to notice who this school of thought largely belongs to.

got a little preview of Klara this week 😭 super looking forward to this film

I don't actually need or want wholly faithful adaptations of things I like in different mediums because most of the time the medium I like it in has something to do with why I like it.

it's nice if a thing translates from one medium to another fairly well, but it's not like I'm looking for a movie version of a book because I want this story in a more convenient format. like the way I like oatmeal but in bar form it travels well in my backpack.

if what makes art impressive to you is how faithful it is to re-creating something else then you're probably quite impressed with AI.

if what makes art impressive to you is stepping into someone else's imagination, then AI probably feels kind of lifeless to you.

got a little preview of Klara this week 😭 super looking forward to this film

and that to me is also the difference between creation and reproduction is the difference between art and AI generated media.

so it's easy to see why some people are so impressed and dictatorial about AI works being art.

always been irritated by the way certain audiences celebrate and admire realism in art. yes it requires great patience and technical skill to faithfully reproduce some part of the world as we experience it with our senses.

but it requires no imagination. And that, to me, is the most interesting thing about art. not our ability to reproduce what we already see and hear and sense. But our ability to produce something that does not or cannot exist outside of our minds.

got a little preview of Klara this week 😭 super looking forward to this film

like Jojo it was clearly a story inspired by the original book— but not the same story. which frankly I prefer in an adaptation. especially one that changes mediumsz

the more I wonder why so many people are resistant to that kind of inspired adaptation the more I feel like it's connected to constant champion of realism in art.

not looking forward to the inevitable book fans crying about how it's not the same story AT ALL.
