George Lucas film preceding a new hope is a familiar slice of life you only get to feel once or twice in your life. It feels nice to bask in it and slowly pace through it. a couple hours in and you’re asking yourself if anything has happened but you’re completely fine with it!

🎞When we’d hit a wall in the edit, Nicholas Nazmi, who cut and produced REN FAIRE, would bring up clips from this incredible making-of PHANTOM MENACE documentary. There’s an unforgettable scene burned into my brain… George Lucas and his crew’s reaction to screening a cut of the film. Everyone emerges from the screening seemingly feeling this acute sense of dread, but yet no one wants to voice it. Lucas seems panicked in his own way too, but masks it in unbridled optimism. He pushes his editors into uncharted territory, asking them to comp certain characters into scenes they were never featured in before, anyway… he’s a genius, and so is this documentary.

super surreal and dreamy, in a slightly snarky way.. it’s one of my favourite comfort movies. the story was cooked up by harry nillson while he was super high on LSD, who then of course wrote the entire soundtrack as a loose concept album, which is very very good!!!! it’s all narrated by ringo starr too!!!!!! u used 2 b able 2 watch the whole thing on youtube, but i think that’s changed in recent years :(((

I pondered this question for about 15 minutes because it’s an impossible question for me. so I decided it was best that I choose a film that hit me by surprise. I’m in the theater multiple times a week and film is a large driving factor in my life. I saw this in IMAX and had no idea what I was getting into. I was the youngest person by decades but I had a fucking BLAST. I couldn’t have named one song by the talking heads, but I left a huge fan. people were singing and dancing and loving the performance. It’s easily the most unique and impressive live performance I’ve ever watched! David Byrne is a national treasure and I applaud him for bringing this together. the music is great, it’s shot beautifully, and more surprises keep coming. The heads are part of my regular rotation now and this is one of the first movies I always recommend people. I felt like I was part of a religious experience and a real concert!
