broski since you have espn I highly recommend this 30 for 30 short if you have time.

It's only like 40 minutes but one of the best films I've seen in the last 5 years and I think you'd dig it. Very Errol Morris/Herzog-esque. It tries to make sense of some of the philosophical dilemmas of the 21st century through the tennis instant replay system. My goal is to get at least one person in this thread to see it
This was cool. Funny enough is I just watched Thom Anderson's Eadweard Muybridge doc last week, and there was a lot of the same philosophical and scientific ideas on photography said in Subject to Review.
Tennis rules be as crazy as ever lol
You should peep that Muybridge doc too since you liked this a lot!
Is this a performance art post
nope Marth is an OG and possibly the only female member of fam
@Elric if you’re not gonna watch mad men, you at least gotta peep the Country Music mini-series by Ken Burns
That series was wild. Wound up watching like seven hours of it with family after randomly switching to it on PBS - I now love Glen Campbell, Kris Kristofferson and more
Not a fan of Safdie stuff
I knew you were a real one
I'm outnumbered on this bs

‘Baby Driver’ one of my biggest disappointments - Wright’s first major mistake. It was corny, boring, but at least it sent a few extra bucks at Hamm and Ferreira

Nah, hit me with a couple recs
Well he grew up performing country music on the radio since he was tiny, developed the encyclopedic knowledge of all music genres (famously knew more than anybody about the American roots stuff) formed The (multi-racial) Sir Douglas Quintet as the Texan response to the British Invasion
released this banger which crystallized his Tex-Mex style;

The song was huge but they floundered for a few years, took a bit for them to successfully rejigger their sound for the new era. They had moved out to San Fran when they got big and were just about to run out of gas and head home when Doug ran into Jerry Wexler at a concert, who was looking for more country acts to sign. Doug told him that he should go down to Armadillo Works Headquarters studio in Texas and sign Willie Nelson if he wants some real progressive country music which ended up starting the whole Outlaw Country movement
Anyways in '69 they found their sound again;

That whole Mendocino album is incredible and set the template he would follow for years. I'm a handful of albums into his 70s run and it's incredible
some of the warmest, most soulful country tinged rock ever.

I was indifferent to him, just hated it. He was pretty good in The Lighthouse tho
most of the thread favourite movie from last year

Never, f*** Alejandro for his Great Value Malick
Well it was shot around my hometown largely so maybe I'm biased. Or maybe I just like westerns.

Nice, can’t blame him for imitating - if I see a green or brown field with waves of grass, you already know I’m trying to take Malick shots
