Let's All Go to the Movies

Any Rewatchables listeners in here?
They're gonna be in town next week for a live show and I'm considering going and checking it out.

My favorite podcast by a mile. Been listening since episode 1. And still go back and relisten to certain episodes. Despite the fact that Simmons is a Boston honk, his pop culture stuff is still very entertaining.

I'd totally go.
 
I recall some were surprised when The Testament of Ann Lee was shut out of awards season but finally seeing it, I understand completely. Deeply weird movie, with an almost psychotic sincerity in how it approaches its subject: the 18th century founder of a celibate sect of Protestants dubbed "Shakers".

I always appreciate Fastvold and Corbet's (the team behind The Brutalist and Vox Lux) dedication towards thorny subjects. No different here, as Testament is not afraid to show a controlling religious fundamentalist attempting to build a better world.

Amanda Seyfried a one of a kind talent. Should have seen some recognition for this role. Movie is all her.

Think I kind of loved it.

Just left The Killer (John Woo) 4K remaster on the big screen. Fuck man, I hadn’t seen this since early college. It’s a bit long, but so much fun. Chow Yun-Fat has such incredible natural charisma, can’t take your eyes off him. I enjoyed being reminded how many action movie staples Woo invented - this shit came out in *1989.*

The pic is from a pre-recorded interview with Woo after the movie, I’m not a monster.
