Sum Up | Luise Rainer: An Incomplete Filmography
The Stop Button Posted by on Mar 14, 2019
Between 1932 and 1997, two-time Academy Award winner Luise Rainer—who was the first actor to win more than one Academy Award and the first to win two back-to-back— made a total of fifteen films. Approximately. Austrian Rainer made three German-language films in the early thirties before Hollywood—M read more
Room (2015, Lenny Abrahamson)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Mar 13, 2019
Room is the story of a woman (Brie Larson) and her son (Jacob Tremblay) who, after seven years in captivity by rapist Sean Bridgers (Tremblay being born as a result of one of those rapes), escape and have to adjust to the outside world. The film is from Tremblay’s perspective, with some occasional read more

Captain Marvel (2019, Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Mar 11, 2019
Captain Marvel is difficult to encapsulate. Its successes are many, some of its achievements truly singular (the CG-de-aging of Sam Jackson, combined with Jackson’s “youthful” performance, is spectacular), and there’s always something else. Even when you get past all the major things—first read more

Today I decided to also fold Summing Up into Visual Reflux. Until today, it hadn’t really occurred to me. One about the seven to ten blogs I’ve started after starting The Stop Button in 2004? I didn’t name the most successful one. Comics Fondle . I didn’t name it. I didn read more
The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957, Jack Arnold)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Mar 9, 2019
The Incredible Shrinking Man is an enormous feat. It succeeds thanks to director Arnold, writer Richard Matheson, and star Grant Williams. Arnold’s arguably got the greatest successes; he carefully lays the groundwork for the film’s eventual startling visuals. To get to the startling ones, Arnold’s read more

Over the last week, I’ve been fiddling with setting up visualreflux.com. I tried really hard to get Linode working and sort of got it running, but not with the feature set I need. Or want. Or am willing to pay any money for. So EasyWP.com because Namecheap got me away from Godaddy back during the read more
Tell Your Children (1936, Louis J. Gasnier)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Mar 7, 2019
Tell Your Children, or Reefer Madness, is sort of mundanely bad. Sure, Carl Pierson’s editing somehow pads shots to make the sixty-six minute movie drag even more than it does because of the terrible script and bad acting, but the script is just dumb and bad. There’s nothing exciting about it, othe read more

Peloponnesian Cliffs

En France… whoops, sorry. In France, Hercules came out in three forty-eight pages volumes. The first came out in 2012, the second in 2013, the third in 2017. It appears each volume is going to be one of Hercules’s twelve labors. Are they called labors? I spent about fifteen minutes trying to read more
