    ★★★½ Watched 22 Feb 2025

    A wonderful gearshift film, anchored by a captivating, awe-inspiring supporting performance by Ray Liotta. RIP King! 👑

    ★★★½ Watched 25 Jan 2025

    Incredibly silly in places (which is par for the course for an early 00's teen film) but I really was struck by the sincerity and (genuine) heart that undergirded the entire film. I laughed, I cried, I felt nostalgic, but mostly, I had a good time!

    Deep Cover 1992

    ★★★★½ Watched 26 Apr 2024

    Bill Duke’s camera and I share many affinities, chief among them – our desire to gaze (and linger) lovingly at Laurence Fishburne’s gorgeous, chiseled face for longer than needed.

    An absolutely irresistible neo noir crime thriller, chocked with more than enough swagger, vulnerability, existential pondering and everything in-between. Damning indictments of racist and corrupt establishments rarely look this sumptuous.
