I get booked on Tiny Desk concert but I just steal all the pens and laptops on the desk while mean mugging all the email job people staring back at me saying in a slow low tone "it's not going to be fun for the person who makes the first move"
I think a blindside of this perspective is, I'll see in the white trans community do shit like trying to recreate the Talented Tenth by first principles, and it's useful to see how that mentality played out in another marginalized community over the course of a century.

if it makes everyone feel better john cassavetes couldn't get people to watch his movies while he was alive either
I love how you can see everybody in the audience get bored in real time when he starts rambling. talking to each other, dissociating, checking their phones.

Weird how everyone’s being so snarky about this. Cassavetes *the director* is obv not in the same tier of popularity as Kubrick/Lynch/Malick etc & the biggest reason is that most online cinephiles don’t care about acting/emotions that much—it’s easier to talk about plot/politics.
OK, I'll bite. If John Cassavetes is so insanely influential and brilliant, why have I not heard about him until recently?
I've been on a side-quest with classic and esoteric movies, mostly through the Criterion collection. I've watched dozens of Criterion closet picks from filmmakers and actors I admire.
They pick Cassavetes films ALL THE TIME. Probably more than any other director except Scorsese. I haven't seen a single Cassavetes film. I don't think I've ever heard anyone talk about a Cassavetes film outside of those videos.
I'm not a slouch on film, I've got a pretty wide spread on what I've seen & what I appreciate. How has Cassavetes slipped through that net so completely for so long?

Oh! You said RYAN GOSLING, like the ACTOR 😅 I thought you were talking about my favorite sandwich, the rye-and-gosling. It's a cooked baby goose between two slices of rye bread.

some disruptive guy just got in the train car and started yelling transphobic shit and I'm the only doll in the car, so I'm sitting there thinking to myself "there's a main character in this subway, and it's ME"
