lovedddd joining CBC's Commotion this morning to talk about why I'm tired of watching rich people commit crimes on TV, and what the antidote to that might be. 🫡🫡

Toronto! Last chance to catch Boxcutter on the big screen. It's a gem of a film about the pressures arts, culture and community face in our city, screening at the Revue, a historic venue experiencing the same grind. Tix here: . revuecinema.ca/films/boxcutte… theglobeandmail.com/arts/film/revi…

Rachel Brosnahan, Lois Lane and the “Superwoke” all deserve better than the chaotic but occasionally charming new Superman. My review in the Globe: theglobeandmail.com/arts/film/revi…

Sending love & solidarity to the formidable Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt who is now being targeted by the Trump regime for daring to demand accountability for Israel's genocide in Gaza. These ghouls will make her life difficult in the meantime, but history will remember her principled courage.

As a critic in Toronto (not at all a major movie market, right?), this is often the best case scenario for me to review a movie in time for embargo. Usually we don't get to see the movie until after the embargo breaks, which is a great way for studios to help me lose work.

They know they can't withstand legal scrutiny––so they're targeting the UN investigator exposing their crimes. Now that Albanese's probe includes US corporations, this mafia retaliation aims to silence her & shield their complicity in genocide. The world stands w/ Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt!

“Tech companies have been profiteering from what Israel was doing [in Gaza].” Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt on the heavy involvement of tech companies in Israel’s genocide of Palestinians, as laid out in her report. The Trump admin is moving to place US sanctions on Albanese.

In the new movie, Lex Luthor tries to have Superman banished to the Phantom Zone for interfering in a genocide he's profiteering from. Can't make this shit up.

Didn't love Superman but eager to revisit that Lois interviews Clark scene, where David Corenswet and Rachel Bresnahan bring that screwball snappiness and spark while duking it out in the minefield between what's politically correct and what's right. theglobeandmail.com/gift/83f0ba5f1…

Here we are at Etalk debating the Top 25 box office earners of the past 25 years. Didn't think it would be this much fun talking about movies that sometimes weren't. Check out the first episode here: youtu.be/cJBscmyAA4w?si…
