5/1/16 review of film Spies, dir. by Fritz Lang


Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the film Spies, directed by Fritz Lang, and which I saw at the 2016 Denver Silent Film Festival.

The thread gives some background on the film and a comparison with Fritz Lang's film Metropolis. It discusses the film's sense of terror, paranoia, and suspense, as well as some of its characters.

I saw this film at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema in Littleton, Colorado.

The thread discusses the film's plot, its alternative family themes, its fetish and crossdressing themes, and how these themes may relate to the creative process in general.

5/1/16 review of 1924 film Peter Pan


Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the 1924 film Peter Pan, which I saw at the 2016 Denver Silent Film Festival.

The thread discusses the film's plot, as well as themes which I (and many others, I'd guess) read as LGBTQ in the Peter Pan story.
