    My Son

    Thanks to everyone involved in restoring this weird little Soviet melodrama, previously thought lost and currently still incomplete. Especially those glorious close-ups of Anna Sten's expressive face - those were definitely worth the effort!

  • Murder on the Blackboard

    Murder on the Blackboard

    ★★★

    These Hildegard Withers movies are all so enjoyable, especially the ones starring Edna May Oliver. The plots don't matter, but watching her and James Gleason quip while investigating murders together does! And as a bonus, this one has a title that I cannot help but want to sing to the tune of Murder on the Dancefloor.

    Eraserhead

    ★★★★★

    A classic film about why you should never have children or live in Philadelphia.

  • The Silver Horde

    The Silver Horde

    ★★

    The film is boring and forgettable, but 25-year-old Joel McCrea might be cinema's greatest ever visual effect.
