excerpt:

What have you been reading and watching?

I am revisiting Pedro Almodóvar's films. I started getting into Ousmane Sembène and Akira Kurosawa this autumn. I will spend the winter knee-deep in nouvelle vague and cinema novo. The Cuban filmmaker Gloria Rolando has a newish film out that I really want to see called Diálogo Con Mi Abuela. My book lists are obscenely long. Right now, I have some Pierre Bourdieu and Frantz Fanon I need to finally finish. Need to revisit Octavia Butler, Toni Morrison, Gabriel García Márquez, and James Baldwin as well. I just learned about Jean Fisher and John Berger, and their work seems like it would be useful for my practice, so I will read them, too.
