The Oscars are coming! The Oscars are coming! Yes, there are. And while the internet is crammed with predictions and potential told-you-so or what-the-fucks, I found solace in some truly great publications just this week. Respect to those we lost, incredibly insightful explorations of films and their film-makers – the stuff on The Thin Red Line are simply unmissable treasures. Bravo to you all once again, I could soak this kind of quality up all day long.
