Sarah Krasnostein: “When Preston’s principal rises and blows great golden circles in the air, the sound has a core – superb and straight and true – that I believe must be a property of the player before it can ever be a property of their playing.”

“The proliferation of extremist content online means individuals are radicalising very quickly – in days and weeks – so the time between flash to bang is shorter than ever.”

Season 3 of 'The Bear' uses a quantum approach to story space, writes Sarah Krasnostein. One concerned with the smallest units of detail and the fact that “every single one of life’s experiences can be happening simultaneously within the same four walls”. satpa.pe/SjkgykA

.@Sarah_Kras visits a life drawing class: “Her back towards the room, the model threads a leg under herself and cradles the curve of her foot in her opposite hand. A busy silence expands as the artists in front of her settle into their work.”

“Like all factual storytellers, the law is selective and subjective – but as anyone who’s struggled to stay awake during a trial knows, it never edits for entertainment…”

"Life models don’t just sit, nude. They are more active than passive; have more in common with dancers than bodies at rest..."

Netflix’s 'Dear Child' explores the archetypes of family to reach unerringly into the subconscious.
"This is a show that avoids the prurience of horror for its own sake and lands on something of high human worth: imperfect hope," writes Sarah Krasnostein. satpa.pe/gcDfN13
‘Ethan Coen is horrible at taking a break. Since 2019, when he said he was tired & giving movie-making a rest, he’s made more movies than most people will ever make. Obviously, he’s not a golfer.’

Yes, just read, peerless journalism. I've followed this closely since former ABC colleague Belinda Hawkins took it up for Oz Story. Now @Sarah_Kras has written a brilliant final chapter that is nuanced and thoughtful, honours the victims and imagines a better world. Just great.
