Love Exists (1960, Maurice Pialat)

The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on May 29, 2019

With a title like Love Exists, it seems reasonable the short might turn around and stop being so intensely depressing, but no. The film, written and directed by Pialat with narration by Jean-Loup Reynold, starts with people leaving the city (Paris) proper for their night in the suburbs. It’s not cl read more

Poor substitutions

The Stop Button Posted by on May 28, 2019

My birthday isn’t until August and I’ve basically gotten myself all the birthday presents I’m going to get myself. Not in the last few months or the last few weeks, but the last few days. Some of them are time-sensitive—Bastille tickets, some limited stock sketchbooks, the new Tardi (someday read more

Caught in a Ham (2019, Miguel Jiron)

The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on May 27, 2019

I think I went into Caught in a Ham with unduly high hopes (I’ve been a Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham since 1983) and apparently I’m enough of a purist to be a little upset Spider-Ham loses out on half his four minute cartoon so it can tie into Into the Spider-Verse.

Vicki (1953, Harry Horner)

The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on May 24, 2019

Vicki is an object lesson in why not to cast against type. Richard Boone plays an obsessive, highly decorated police veteran who is also supposed to be wimpy (except, literally, when beating up helpless people). About the only time Boone isn’t absurd is when he’s stalking his suspects, breaking read more

Irreversible (2012, David Levinson)

The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on May 23, 2019

Irreversible is blissfully unaware of itself. It’s the story of dude-bro Timothy Paul Driscoll breaking up with girlfriend Alice Hunter, then the story of their relationship in reverse.
