"Long mired in film"

Lemmy in for #1449.





The latest from Leos Carax stars Adam Driver as a very messed up stand up.

Isabelle Huppert, who earlier in her career played Emma Bovary, plays a very proper fin-de-siècle French woman who leaves a letter for her even more proper husband telling him she has left him for another man of lower social stature. Moments after he has read the letter, she is back. Interesting discussions follow--Gabrielle is no angel. Based on a Joseph Conrad novella.

Newly elected U.S. senator Jeff Keane (Lionel Barrymore) is intent on cleaning up Washington. Similar in theme to Capra’s great Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.

I’m in. Sorry I’m late — I really meant to enter by yesterday but it was a chaotic day/night in the end.

This selection is in memory of a vegan activist friend of mine who this week I found out killed himself.

Thanks. Yes, it really is. Mental health seems to be in crisis these days. I had no idea that he was suffering. He was upbeat and successful (own home and business, which he talked about very warmly). Still hard to take in.
