Bruce Campbell recommended Night of the Living Dead (1968) in Movies (curated)

"The granddaddy of them all. A landmark achievement in technical innovation, social awareness, and sheer terror. The handheld look so many filmmakers use today was very new in the ’60s, when visual styles were very “locked down.” It was my first experience watching someone get disemboweled, and you don’t easily forget that."

"Film historians name it the return of JLG to commercial cinema (after his '70s experiments). If so, let's all be commercial. A film with thousands of cinematic ideas, brilliantly moving and emotionally brilliant. Also, an enormous, terrible and funny scene which connects sex with social hierarchy, sound with image, film directors with CEOs."

Donald Robertson recommended Bright Young Things: London in Books (curated)

"There was something odd about how much I loved this book. Looking back I realize it was the precursor to Instagram. It was social sharing pre iPhone. Pour through it today— it’s like a day’s worth of scrolling. It was the beginning of global voyeurism. I love this book for this reason."
