I went out to see Kinds Of Kindness at @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social. I enjoyed it, as much as such a movie can be enjoyed. Would recommend if you liked Dogtooth, or at the very least found it interesting enough to stomach.

Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? w/ appreciative crowd @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social. First time for me, though I saw the play at Steppenwolf—featuring a star-making performance by Carrie Coon as Honey. Yet again impressed by how it reaches fever pitch almost instantly, then finds like 4 higher gears.

Playing this Sunday at 11:30am, presented in 35MM! Get Tickets Now: musicboxtheatre.com/films-and-ev...

Today is the 58th anniversary of the opening of Mike Nichols's first movie, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? It was an earthquake. I can't give you a contemporary analogy because none quite works, but it remains a you-cannot-look-away mindblower. It's rentable in many places; pls don't watch on Tubi.
