(2026 dir. Walker / Auen) Date Seen: September 12 2026
Pacing issues aside, this was honestly fascinating & one of the more original screenplays of the year. CHRONOVISOR accurately depicts what it feels like to fall down a rabbit hole via analogue research; When all your sources & reference trails go cold using conventional internet.. You'd think a procedural about archival research couldn't veer into psychological thriller territory so easily.
370) NITRATE KISSES
(1992 dir. Barbara Hammer) 2nd Viewing: September 12 2026
It’s like all these ghostly old images of bodies & passion were trying to touch something that heteronormative history wouldn’t let them keep. 💔 & somehow Barbara makes that loss feel almost physical; i.e. a phantom limb..
Still radical + radically moving all these years later. NITRATE KISSES in particular remains the only thing of hers that I've ever been able to track down! i wish I could find more of it in higher definition.
[watched in anticipation of BARBARA FOREVER]
