one of my favorite things about the long walk is how often the characters laugh. like here they are, staring the inevitable, imminent threat of death right in the eye, and still they laugh. it’s so deeply human and unbearably beautiful.

i can’t get it out of my head… the intensity of emotions felt from this was truly incredible work
The Long Walk was certainly one of the most timely films I have ever seen.
In fact, I would be hard-pressed to find one more sobering than this.
Most films are timely just because they are adapting events around the time of their filming, or even predicting the future based on reasonable assumptions.
This movie showed us all what it looks like when someone takes a bullet to the head in clear vision while the state is flying flags at half-staff right outside just because some bigot announced his location. It portrays a country in economic collapse where the only salvation is that people will see a bunch of kids inspire the nation through a 98% death rate.
It snarls about the difficulty of taking life and the painful cost of resistance, while also refusing to openly condemn political violence. It illustrates the human drive for survival even in the face of inevitable death, and the bonds people forge between one another even when they know it can never last.
It also has an odd, subtle condemnation for roads. There is nothing along the road. It is, as one character says, "one giant piece of litter". There ard no grand vistas to witness, no significant events happen at crossings, and the only people who we see alongside are observers or targets of observation. There's an emptiness and an isolation to the film, and it's sobering.
The film is also one of the most cinematic works I have seen in ages: there are several shots that are just three or four characters walking, talking, and acting for a whole minute. No cuts, no interludes, they have actual, genuine TAKES in this movie.
As for the movie itself...it lives up to its premise. When they start walking, the movie keeps up. There are only a few momentary pauses for flashbacks: the rest is constant momentum. It's a spectacular achievement...but it's cold and cruel. This is a movie that feels too real for its own good, and the only thing worse than it feeling like "this could actually happen" is that it kind of is happening.
Take care of yourselves and the people around you.
And read.

Hello. Hi. I know you want new music.
I want you to know that I am hard at work. There were some restrictions I was under, for a lot longer than it seemed, but they are no longer in the way. I’m sure you can fill in the blanks.
I’m always writing aimlessly and lawlessly as you know. But “album mode” is a whole other arena and the games are just beginning. I am working on some of my favorite stuff I’ve ever conjured. Wild to think that it hasn’t even been 2 years since IICHLIWP! I know it feels like so much longer. It does to me too. But there were 2 years and 7 months between HFK and Manic and honestly I think it was worth it. The time I took. And the growth that got me from that album to the next.
Thank you for having the patience and the faith.
It will pay off in the long run.
This feels like my debut all over again, in some ways.
Your love and support have carried me through a time where I thought maybe I only had a few albums left in me, but I know now that there are so many more than I could have ever dreamed.
Anyways, I love you.
Down the rabbit hole I go 🕳️
See you soon.
