Golden
The Strange Woman (1946)
Another weird noir by Edgar G. Ulmer (Detour, Strange Illusion, etc.). Starring the incomparable Hedy Lamarr!
Sayles on Border Incident
This is a great movie and John Sayles is an amazing director.
Almost Everybody
After reading 125 film presentation essays I can say with confidence that almost everybody needs to look up “jump cut.”
Recommended
These recommendations include some of the films and books I consumed this semester.
Books
Ann Leckie, Ancillary Justice
One of the most original sci-fi novels I’ve read in a long time.
Nalo Hopkinson, Midnight Robber
An Afrofuturist novel that, in my opinion, far outstrips Binti.
Bruce Cumings, The Korean War
Many Americans know very little about this war, and misperceptions of it continue to distort political discourse in the US. As a result of this conflict roughly 1 in 5 people in North Korea were killed.
