      In this week's conversation about John Wick 3, we get into some pretty complicated stuff. Looking back on the talk, there's a word I wish I'd used to help me express my point of view that I didn't: Sublime. 1/6https://www.patreon.com/posts/ffr-79-john-wick-27199057 …

      There are films with really bad politics that nonetheless contain moments that are so beautiful that I am momentarily elevated by them. It's like a spiritual experience. These don't earn films a pass for their bad politics, but I also can't pretend that the beauty isn't there.

          Skyfall is, in my view, one of the most deliberately and egregiously anti-feminist films of the millenium. I find its politics reprehensible. It's also full of sublime moments, thanks in no small part to the cinematography of Roger Deakins.pic.twitter.com/u9hnrCmfzl

          Does sublimity in a film like Skyfall only help to glamorize & normalize the patriarchy and misogyny at its core? Quite possibly. That's a conversation I'm willing to have. But I'm not willing to say that I don't experience those transcendent moments of beauty in the first place.

          We are large. We contain multitudes, some of them contradictory. So does art itself. And so does the space between us and art. We have to confront it in an honest way that acknowledges the messiness of it all.

          Of course, for some of us, sometimes, these things are simple. That's fine too, or can be, as long as that, too, comes from an honest place & doesn't involve the denial of one's own humanity, or the humanity of others who sit in the dark with us, looking up at the glowing screen.
