I take exception to this presumption
Are you kidding? You think film is getting BETTER over time? You say you’re a literate film buff and then discount silent and ‘art-house bullshit genre stuff’? Christ. I bet you think Tombstone is the high-water mark for westerns.
The last 20 years have not been cinema’s best, unless you’re broadly in favour of art made by accountants.
If I see you this weekend I am going to punch you in the dick.
And I’m going to put my ear to your chest to see if your old man heart is still beating. I mean, Ross… Ride? Really?
