A short thread of #PreCode podcast episodes for #PreCodeApril. I’ve yet to find a podcast dedicated exclusively to Pre-Code movies, so if you come across one (or start one), please let me know. #PreCodePodcasts
SHORT THREAD OF FILM RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EASTER WEEKEND. By platform.
@BBCiPlayer Recommendation: Full Time (2021). Just in case you *still* haven’t watched it, despite me banging on about it for over a year.
NETFLIX RECOMMENDATION: Past Lives (2023).
Is there a better film than Past Lives on @NetflixUK right now? No. No, there isn’t. Make your family watch it this weekend if they haven’t seen it.
@NetflixUK AMAZON PRIME RECOMMENDATION: The One I Love (2014).
A proper Hidden Gem, this. The less you know about it going in, the more fun you’ll have with it. And then you’ll tell all your friends to watch it too. #HiddenGems
Doing three film festivals back to back (Edinburgh, FrightFest, Venice) was either a brilliant idea or a terrible idea. History does not yet relate which.
At least when I get back, I’ll have nine whole days before the LFF screenings start.
Travel is so *weird*. Last night: fun at the Phoenix for the closing night of FrightFest. Tonight: this.
#PreCodeApril thread for 2022. Please check the hashtag regularly - it was an absolute treasure trove last year.
This is my Pre-Code Films list on @letterboxd. If you’re looking for recommendations, the top 90 or so are in approximate order of preference. letterboxd.com/filmfan1971/li…
Here’s last year’s insanely long #PreCodeApril thread.
