Also Chimes at Midnight is on Criterion Channel, is the best movie Orson Welles ever made, and it makes a great backwards double feature with Branagh's Henry V (do the latter first and watch Chimes as the superior prequel).

It is so fucking weird watching this movie and seeing how vital and alive all these people are and then remembering that like one of them made it past age forty-five.
The greatest documentary ever made.

Looks like audio isn't working on this one? (May be that it just hasn't finished processing yet and I'm an asshole, in which case apologies)

The Man Who Was Thursday - Chapters 9 and 10
(Apologies that I'm stumbling over myself a bit more rapidly here than I was for Nevada—I can half-ass the accents better if I go fast. 
That said, one of my favorite bits of dialogue ever occurs pretty far into the duel chapter and I hope you're able to pinpoint which.)

Don Hertzfeldt just posted the entirety of It's Such a Beautiful Day to Vimeo. It's only a little over an hour long, it's one of the best animated movies ever made, and it's perfect quarantine viewing for reasons that will become obvious.

So, uh, if you've ever wanted to listen to an audiobook of "The Call of Cthulhu," someone just used speech synthesis software to have Ronald Reagan narrate the whole thing.
EDIT: Alec Guiness too.

Topic: Come What May (Even Corona) – Moulin Rouge Commentary! [UPDATE: Here!] (9 replies, posted in Coronaviral Activities)
SO.
What seems like an eternity ago but was in fact only a month ago, I posted about Moulin Rouge and unexpectedly kicked off a massive outpouring of love for said flick. We said we should do a commentary. General agreement was voiced.
We're all stuck at home, let's do the fuckin' thing.
If you're interested in participating, sound off here! And then we can coordinate timing/recording methods/etc.

Actually, I lied, here's one more for the night! The opening chapters of one of the three or four books in permanent combat for the title of My Favorite: The Man Who Was Thursday: A Nightmare, by G. K. Chesterton. Widely considered the first spy novel, it's hilarious and thrilling and surreal and thought-provoking and etc. (Chesterton was a reactionary through and through and the politics of this are something I don't really agree with at all but also who fucking cares, it's rad.)

Welp, here's a different sorta fairytale but a fairytale all the same, by one of my absolute favorite authors of short fiction:
"The Steam Dancer (1896)," by Caitlin R. Kiernan
(Apologies for the sharpness on the sibilants/the occasional dips in volume on all these, by the way. I should probably get a proper mic one of these days.)
