Myna Joseph’s elegantly shot, Big Apple–set short FIT MODEL (2019) follows a thirtysomething freelancer who works as everything from a babysitter to a stand-in for fashion models while also dealing with the physical and financial fallout of an accident.

Oh shit. Looting has broken out in Washington.
Your state and local reps are the ones who can directly reform police depts and criminal justice systems. MAKE THEM ACCOUNTABLE: here are four concrete actions to support BLM (w/ NY names and numbers to call).

Only recently discovered Vivian Gornick, but reading all I can. Especially "Fierce Attachments" and "Odd Woman and the City" with her roving walks through NYC ❤️🗽

One month in, most of the @kinolorber films released virtually have generated B.O. equivalent of six figures. Nine films now on the platform, two films a week scheduled for the next couple months.

Sad to see cinemas, film mags,etc, struggling. If you'd like subscription to @SightSoundmag, membership to your local cinema or @mubi etc for year + can't afford it, I'll pay for up to 50 of these. Especially if you're in non-developed world. Movie lovers family. DMs open. ♥️📽️

The NYFF New York Stories short film program is remarkable this year, with Myna Joseph's astounding FIT MODEL, @sallitt's CATERINA (in which I briefly appear), & films by several friends I can't wait to see: filmlinc.org/nyff2019/daily/…

Christina Choe's first feature, Nancy, has a tenacious, uncanny power, despite orthodoxies of form and tone; the story and its implications, even its unrealized possibilities, make it urgent viewing: newyorker.com/culture/richar…
