Here is some art from American artist Dave Muller.

Of course I was struck first by the mirror ball & then found detailed paintings of albums / record labels.

the narcissist

Blur is BACK after 8 years!

The next album, The Ballad of Darren, drops July 21st.

The latest single "The Narcissist" is a deceptively sunny, guitar strummy tune.

My review of Sanctuary on Film-Forward.

monica

My review of Monica is now up at Film-Forward. I really liked the movie, especially Trace Lysette's performance alongside the per usual excellent Patricia Clarkson. 

Here are some stills from the film. The movie was shot by Katelin Arizmendi.

Meep & I united to discuss disaster movies of the 1970s (plus one from 1980) on the Retro Movie Love Podcast. I also got a chance to show off some of my disaster movie physical media swag.

chile '76

I loved Manuela Martelli's debut film Chile '76. 

My review for Film-Forward here.

Amazing / symbolic use of colors throughout, which is so fun to see in a new film! The cinematography is by Yarará Rodríguez.

Here are some stills.
