Hey 19, That's 'Reetha Franklin (sort of)
Amadeus was one of my mom's favorite movies of all time - she'd quote the "too many notes" line as a phrase to mean not liking something that you couldn't find anything logical to criticize about it. That is an all timer.
Has anybody seen the Chadwick Boseman James Brown biopic? Or the insane sounding Don Cheadle Miles Davis movie?

Mashups and whatnot
Digging the Train to Skaville track! I am a sucker for rap mashed onto rocksteady and such. DJ Maars style.

current film strut
Wait, what? They made an american version of Secrets in Their Eyes? God damn, I'm tempted to watch it strictly from morbid curiosity. I did avoid the Funny Games remake though. Caché is one of my favorites, though I don't know if I'll watch it again. Haneke movies aren't good-time comfort rewatches.
But in a totally different tone, I rewatched Alex Ross Perry's The Color Wheel. I really liked it when it came out and it holds up completely on a second viewing. It's a comedy about two siblings made of distilled unpleasantness, and you still end up caring about them. Gorgeous 16mm BW. It kept getting called mumblecore but it was apparently very intricately scripted. While I don't usually care about "spoilers" as most people use the term (oh no you ruined how han solo's spaceship looks boo hoo), there's an element to The Color Wheel that is a huge spoiler present in almost any press about the movie. I think to know it beforehand is pretty ruinous to the experience. So if you're gonna watch it just watch it first, don't read about it.

Hello to the Strut
Hey, welcome back - am I right in thinking you're aka crabmonger funk? So you don't mong them anymore?
You won't know me as I lurked for 10 years but yeah it's a lot of diehards around here. I think some people are re-learning to appreciate a topic/specialized old school forum style of discussion over insta, fb, etc. Even when people are talking unrelated shit it's a group that's come together around something in common rather than shitting into the jet engine of twitter.
And likewise my life in music would've been way different and frankly shittier without the
here over time.
