Over the past couple of years- namely thanks to @criterionchannel- I’ve been introduced to the concept of Afrofuturism. In cinematic terms, Afrofuturism is the incorporation of black people's history and culture in science fiction film and related genres, which are, according to Ashley Clarke, “united by one key theme: the centering of the international black experience in alternate and imagined realities, whether fiction or documentary; past or present; science fiction or straight drama". While Ryan Coogler’s #blackpanther films fit within the framework of the genre, it’s what I’ve seen away from those blockbusters- namely, films featured on Criterion Channel’s Afrofuturism collection, that have gotten me most excited about exploring the genre. Last year, @saulwilliams’s and Anisia Uzeyman’s #neptunefrost was one of my favorite films, a look at connectivity, disruption and rebellion with a rich visual look and terrific soundtrack; “An Oversimplification of Her Beauty” uses animation and live-action to explore the ways men oversimplify our views of women; and on Sunday, “Space is the Place” introduced me to the music of Sun Ra in its story of breaking systemic oppression through art, and the promise of something more. I cannot wait to explore further. #films #movies #cinema #afrofuturism #afrofuturistfilms https://www.instagram.com/p/CpOXa7GMPPQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This month the #criterionchannel is streaming 20 MGM Golden Age musicals. Be still my little heart. This is the bread-and-butter I cut my movie-watching teeth on. I could have gone right to the big guns (An American in Paris, On the Town, Meet Me in St. Louis, Brigadoon) but I decided to watch the set in chronological order, which is how it’s arranged. So I started with Broadway Melody of 1940 (1940) starring Eleanor Powell and Fred Astaire. The Broadway Melody musicals are mostly thinly-plotted vehicles for just the songs and dances - this was an all Cole Porter gig in this one - but the dancing is superb. The spectacular Begin the Beguine is the climax of the movie, complete with the incredible a capella time-step tap sequence, but don’t miss the fantastic Jukebox tap dance in the middle of the movie. #criterion #streaming #movies #musicals #film #cinema #amwatching https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Y3Z0DAUWB/?igshid=g2iiuac16p7p

Picnic At Hanging Rock (1975) is one of my favorite films. I watched it last night and had the idea to write about it while rewatching it. It's such a thought provoking film AND beautiful- so I couldn't choose just one frame from it to post as the photo here. Highly recommend it if you haven't seen it, yet. I love rewatching it as well because I get more from it every time I do. I could say so much here, but I'll keep it short. I get so swept away in the atmosphere of the film, it's like the film IS Hanging Rock and I have to venture in its... everything! #30Days30Films #PicnicAtHangingRock #PeterWeir #JoanLindsay #Criterion #CriterionCollection #classicfilm #CriterionChannel #film https://www.instagram.com/p/BydzzE4Fszz/?igshid=1i7tcckzyrp73

The original Dragon Inn from 1967 basically defined the Wuxia genre.

"A clock without hands works fine for me." I just watched THE GLEANERS AND I (2000) on #CriterionChannel. Like Varda's FACES PLACES (made w/artist @jr ), I was struck by her unique vision - personal yet universal, melancholy and joyous, with total faith in the human experience. https://www.instagram.com/p/CUQu_Gig3Xh/?utm_medium=tumblr
