Bluesky comment

I’m not going to pretend these are bad films (I don’t even mind the Woody film) but this doesn’t exactly scream “voracious cinephile with a near-encyclopedic knowledge of genre and world cinema” so much as “dad who watches a lot of TNT.”

      I’m with you, I thought Dano was excellent, especially playing opposite DDL in that movie.

      I have no idea who Austin Butler is tbh. Looks at his IMDB and I’ve seen some things he’s been in, but I guess he’s just never stood out to me. He was in Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, so maybe he was just the first youngish male actor that popped into Quentin’s head at that moment?
