エロス+虐殺 (Erosu purasu gyakusatsu; Eros + Massacre), dir. Yoshida Yoshishige (aka Yoshida Kijū)
Reading about Seitō, I had to think of this incredibly artistic political film about Itō Noe and Ōsugi Sakae by one of my favorite directors of all time, which I'd hereby like to recommend. Watch the 3.5-hour original cut if you can.

EUREKA (ユリイカ), dir. Aoyama Shinji
Sadly, this is the only good entry in Aoyama's Kitakyūshū Saga (in fact, it's a masterpiece). What a shame the other two (Helpless/Sad Vacation) are just kinda meh, but fortunately, this one works perfectly on its own.

“#JamesGray is the last great #novelist of #American #cinema,” said #GionaANazzaro, #Locarno’s artistic director. “His #films form a rich body of work that echoes the #Jewish #diaspora, #filmnoir, and #Russian as well as #NorthAmerican #literature. A #filmmaker with a humanist sensibility and profound #cinephile knowledge, he has experimented with genres such as #sciencefiction and adventure while retaining his own #artistic identity and voice. Celebrating James #Gray at the Locarno #Film Festival means paying tribute to a unique and unmistakable #artist, a filmmaker who speaks the language of #cinema and knows how to pass it on to future generations.”

A Page of Madness (狂った一頁, 1926) – Dir. Teinosuke Kinugasa
Thought lost for decades, this silent film is a triumph of pure visual storytelling. Rejecting intertitles entirely, it uses frantic editing and expressionistic lighting to create a hypnotic, avant-garde experience. A brilliant achievement that feels incredibly modern and ahead of its time.

Love high-quality cinema but tired of the big streaming giants?
I'm really enjoying Japanese Film Festival Online (JFF+): I watched a couple of good #movies and #docs this week. 🇯🇵
Well: the web is probably full of "hidden digital cinematheques" run by cultural institutes and archives that offer #free, legal #streaming.
Here’s a list of gems to feed your cinephile soul this weekend.

When a Christmas movie kidnaps its own heroine to teach her a lesson she never needed, the real Scrooge might just be the genre itself.

Salome (2025) buys into the persistent idea that for a classic text to resonate with modern audiences, it must be given a trendy makeover. If that were true, why didn’t Oscar Wilde set his one-act tragedy about Herod Antipas’ stepdaughter in the late 1800s?

As a Filipino #cinephile, Christmas is dreadful time because of the Metro Manila Film Festival. This "film festival" is as far removed from the likes of Cannes, Toronto, and Sundance as you can imagine. This is because no other films can be shown in local cinemas (save for IMAXes). Thus local studios usually use this theater monopoly to put out crap.
Local critic Phil Dy sums up the situation best in a viral Twitter thread from 2018: https://twitter.com/philbertdy/status/1076651981190524928
