'I won the Bedminster Club Championship with a score of 70, and am so honored in that, unlike the rest of the field, I’m given very little time to practice, because I’m focused on many other things. It’s called TALENT, and I have it, and they don’t! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

Just watched ERASER 4K (RIP Chuck Russell), which I hadn't seen in full since the theatre. Is there a reason both it and MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE, released a month earlier, feature a character named William Donahue?

Holy mackerel, Vinegar Syndrome is putting out THE FIRST DEADLY SIN, which is basically Frank Sinatra's SEVEN. You even get to see him act alongside Joe Spinell.

HOWARD THE DUCK turns 40 today. A true calamity that inspired nothing except maybe the most personal review I ever wrote. filmfreakcentral.net/2021/08/howa....

The Bigod 20 cover of "Like a Prayer" and the Schneider cover of "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out" are better than the originals.

For the Saturday crowd.

Watched Criterion's lovely 4K edition of PEE-WEE'S BIG ADVENTURE and somehow only just picked up on how the colour scheme of his bike follows him everywhere (Mickey's red and white convertible, Simone's white cap with red flower, Jan Hook's crisp white shirt and bright red lipstick...).

Didn't realize "Furious" is based on Bob Rafelson's BLACK WIDOW, a movie I may have watched a few dozen times at age 13. Used to be that adapting a film for TV was a process of defanging, but "Furious" is considerably grimmer than its source material.

Nice!

I gave my cat a hug with both arms and have lived to tell about it.

SUNSHINE STATE: minor John Sayles, maybe, but does the trick if you need a fix of those LONE STAR vibes.

If Radiance were kind enough to send Film Freak Central a screener they'd get a review for the ages.

Enjoying "Furious" but probably would've cut the part where our Clarice Starling Emmy Rossum is like, "Gee whillickers where did you get such fancy book learnin'?" when her mentor tells her the Medusa myth.
