Pic of the Day


I'm not paying much attention to today's Cannes 2024 fest title drop because what do I care, I am not going and the thought of people going and seeing movies there when I am not annoys me -- I was an only child and I can be indescribably petty, it's all true! It's the same reason I'm ignoring CinemaCon news -- ooh people got to watch footage from Robert Eggers' Nosferatu did they? Well lucky fuckin' them. Nyah nyah nyahhh. All of that said obviously this, the first official photo of Barry Keoghan in Andrea Arnold's next movie Bird -- which co-stars no less than Franz Rogowski! -- caught my eye when Indiewire posted it on their Insta just now. Obviously. (See my previous post here.) Talk about a duo of actors birthed to be in an Andrea Arnold movie! Of course this movie will rule and nobody will know what to do with it because Andrea Arnold will keep being too singular and outré for the establishment (by which I mean awards bodies I suppose), but I can't wait. I mean I will have to wait, unlike those assholes who go to Cannes. God, we hate them.
