I don't want to derail this thread from the Halloween films (I haven't seen them yet), so please do continue the discussion regardless of this post; I just wanted to ask if anyone is planning to watch Blonde (2022), directed by Andrew Dominik, tonight? It premieres on Netflix today. I'm excited about it, partially because of its subject, partially because of its director, and partially because of the NC-17 rating and the controversies surrounding it.
Booked tickets to see it but had to miss the screening. Watching a 70mm “de-restoration” of the original 2001: A Space Odyssey negative prints tonight.
Might try again for Blonde tomorrow. Dominik’s work on Nick Cave documentaries have been outstanding and Cave/Ellis have done the score for Blonde so that’s exciting. However, the director’s comments during interviews for the film have me very apprehensive he’s the right person to do this story justice.
