THE BAMBOO BLONDE (Dorothy B. Hughes, 1941) Whereas I read THE SO BLUE MARBLE in one big gulp, it has taken me almost two weeks to get through its sequel THE BAMBOO BLONDE, and thus no surprise that the series ends here.... https://notesonfilm1.com/2026/06/14/the-bamboo-blonde-dorothy-b-hughes-1941/

The Christophers (Steven Soderbergh, 2025) THE CHRISTOPHERS is an exercise in style, with a half-baked script by Ed Solomon (MEN IN BLACK, CHARLIE’S ANGELS, The BILL AND TED films ) with under-developed themes on aging, celebrity culture, art, the relationship to one’s past, and a moral reckoning with one’s actions.... https://notesonfilm1.com/2026/06/04/the-christophers-steven-soderbergh-2025/

A Way To Die (Maxime Lachaud and Xavier Laradji, 2025)
I did make it to A WAY TO DIE: THE SHORT FILMS OF COIL, directed by Maxime Lachaud and Xavier Laradji, at The Mockingbird last night. The film is a not-quite-linear hybrid amalgamation of a brief documentary introducing the short films and videos made by Peter Christopherson (1955-2010) and John Balance (1962-2004), a long-term couple. Christopherson aka ‘Sleazy’ was a member of Throbbing…

OBSESSION (Curry Baker, 2025)
OBSESSION (Curry Baker, 2025) is a supernatural horror that is currently being much praised and which I intensely disliked watching. The praise is easy to understand: It’s an imaginatively directed and expressively lit film that takes an old trope (what you wish for now might become your worst nightmare) and adds a new twist (where is consent when another is tricked or bewitched into loving?); it…

A note on IN A LONELY PLACE (Nicholas Ray, 1950)
What better way to escape the heat and Gay Pride jollities than to slip into a cool cinema to see something dark? IN A LONELY PLACE has the fatalism, the alienation and sadness, the swooney romanticism: ‘I was born when I kissed you; I died when you left me; for a few weeks I lived while you loved me.’ Some of the most memorable dialogue in film history, and this not including its wonderful use…

THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU (Jon Favreau, 2026)
THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU is dividing audiences. It’s based on a tv show that has already been running for three years and which, perhaps unfairly, I turned off after a few episodes. I think it’s one of the those big-budget movies ($165 million) where most of the budget must have gone to the producers. It looks embarrassingly cheap and is almost offensively ugly in spite of the evidently…
