In my new interview with author Jen Julian about her difficult to classify horror-ish novel "Red Rabbit Ghost," she says she considers it "...a trippy, haunted coming-of-age story with queer characters that are super flawed and complicated."

I... am I a fan of Dark Academia? Should I really derive pleasure from Quentin's suffering?
I enjoy noticing his bullshit being pummelled out of him, eventually feeling paternal for someone making the same impulsive self-miseries.

Dark Academia is nerdy Icarus but rich and depressed?

(Piranesi is still bad and should still feel bad.) I cannot overemphasise my indignant disregard & disgust for Piranesi.

Toy Story 3 (2010) (WS1)

Meine letzte Filmsichtung liegt über sechs Wochen zurück. Sechs Wochen! Das heißt ich habe im gesamten Juli keinen einzigen Film gesehen. Heute war es mit dem Start der Sommerferien jedoch soweit. Das Karate-Training hat Pause und somit war der Freitagabend frei für einen Film. Die Wahl fiel auf „Toy Story 3“, da das Zappelinchen nach einem konfliktreichen Tag lieber in ihrem Zimmer blieb und wir die ersten beiden Teile auch schon ohne sie gesehen hatten. 🧸

Der perfekte Abschluss der […]

Just posted my thoughts on Le Panache, a French coming-of-age gem that had me laughing, tearing up, and remembering why we root for the underdog. It’s not flashy, but it’s deeply sincere.

Jonah Hill – “Mid90s” (2018)

“Coming-of-Age” mal anders: Ein Junge in den Straßen von Los Angeles. Klein für sein Alter, schweigsam, wütend. Kein nostalgischer Rückblick auf Skateboards und Mixtapes. Sondern eine Nahaufnahme dieser scheiß komplizierten Jahre, in denen Zugehörigkeit wichtiger ist als alles andere – und der Preis vollkommen unklar. (ARD)

Mike Mills – “Jahrhundertfrauen” (2016)

Mike Mills erzählt von seiner Kindheit in Kalifornien, aber eigentlich von viel mehr: Von Müttern, die keine klassischen Mütter sind. Von den Frauen, die ihn geprägt haben. Und von einer Zeit, die sich nicht entscheiden konnte, ob sie schon modern ist oder doch noch ein Echo der Vergangenheit… (ARD, Wh)

"Night Moves" is a song by American singer-songwriter #BobSeger. It was the lead #single from his ninth studio album of the same name (1976), which was released on #CapitolRecords. Seger wrote the song as a #comingOfAge tale about adolescent love and adult memory of it. It was based on Seger's teenage love affair, which he experienced in the early 1960s. It took him six months to write and was recorded quickly at Nimbus Nine Studios in #Toronto, #Ontario.

I’m aging myself here, but my first crushes were Nancy McKeon as Jo from The Facts of Life and Michael J. Fox as Alex P. Keaton from Family Ties.
Imagine it’s 1985. I’m nine years old, sitting cross-legged on our floor, three feet from our small box television, completely transfixed.

Moritz Krüger – „Die feige Schönheit“ (2025)

Ein Film, der sich leise entfaltet. Wie ein Gespräch, das erst nach dem dritten Satz beginnt. „Die feige Schönheit“ von Moritz Krämer, geschrieben mit Saskia Benter Ortega, ist zurückhaltend, schüchtern fast, mit einer zarten Emotionalität, die sich dem direkten Zugriff entzieht und doch berührt. Vielleicht ist es dieser sanfte Widerstand gegen einfache Kategorisierung, die mich überhaupt an diesem jugendlichen Skater-Film interessiert hat. (ZDF, Neu)
