In light of Almodovar's THE ROOM NEXT DOOR, I reread my @hyperallergic take on his first English-language short, THE HUMAN VOICE. Tilda Swinton's sumptuous abode anticipates the glorious interiors and vivid mise en scene to come in his 2024 feature. hyperallergic.com/628249/the-int…

Caught Almodovar's sumptuous, moving THE ROOM NEXT DOOR @HIPointe @STLFilmFest One of his greatest works—the shot of Tilda in her final moment is utterly Hopperesque. An homage both to the brilliance of #JulianneMoore and #TildaSwinton and the power of enduring friendships.

Saw Ernst Lubitsch’s delightful silent romp SO THIS IS PARIS last night @arkadin, a laugh-out-loud spectacle of felicitous philandering and flapper feathers. What a treat! #film

I just learned that my master's thesis & first pub was used to design a research project for a @WUSTL undergrad, Ada Sensoy. Her project is so thoughtfully designed, analyzed, and written. I'm both honored and proud!!

So proud of my student whose first-year project—"How the Continuous 'Biomedicalization' of Female Aging through TikTok Incentivizes Cosmeceutical Purchases among Younger Women"—was selected for the Undergraduate Research Symposium @WUSTL @washuartsci . #TikTok #AgeFilter #Aging

This piece by @_jessebarron @NYTmag reminds me of how crucial long-form, investigative journalism continues to be—especially in tackling the juggernaut of Gaza and Israel. nytimes.com/2024/11/03/mag…


"2nd-wave feminist criticism of Marilyn overwhelmingly struck the same note: condescending aversion masquerading as empathy or high-minded appreciation of tragedy." Grateful for this gorgeous apologia for femme subjectivity @reproutopia harpers.org/archive/2022/1… #MarilynMonroe


Grateful to be movie critic @Hopkins_Review; I have the rare freedom to mingle traditional film journalism w/ the personal & literary. In its latest vol, I write on WILDCAT, Ethan Hawke's imaginative take on the creative life of Flannery O'Connor. #MayaHawke #film

In 2016, I was shocked at Trump's win, electric with a mix of rage and despair. I wrote this @Salon essay as a way to make sense of it, any sense of it, in the only way I know how. Reading the last line of the piece today, I nearly burst into tears. salon.com/2016/11/19/the…


"As feminist thinkers...we need to place aesthetics on our agenda." In my lipstick research, I came upon bell hooks' cogent 1995 "Beauty Laid Bare". Rather than fingerwag at beauty-loving women, she validates, then clarifies how beauty's pursuit need not rest on consumption.

Regarding Trump comedian's grossly offensive comments about beautiful #PuertoRico, I'd like to encourage everyone to see Glorimar Marrero Sánchez's LA PECERA. One of my favorites @sundancefest 2023, and a film that ends with the most poetic final shot I've seen in years. #film
