Welcome to a new weekly blog series where we’ll highlight social media posts from Blue Sky about film. We’re kicking this week off with the Starter Pack to follow people in the CineJourneys family.
Here’s a list of people involved with CineJourneys either as members, Guides, or friends of the project. Still finding everyone so please reach out if we forgot anyone.CC: @biscuitkitten.bsky.social @cinejourneys.bsky.social go.bsky.app/A6hbvdX

I'm proud of this one, and it took awhile. These are people who have written essays for The Criterion Collection. These are some of the best scholars/writers on the planet. All worth a follow.
I'll tag the accounts in comments.

When Pasolini began production on Accattone, his cinematic ‘North Star’ was Carl Theodor Dreyer, in addition to pictorial references (especially Masaccio). He wrote, “Dreyer’s suggestion was inside me, I followed a rule of absolute expressive simplicity.”

Aaron sat down with Celeste de la Cabra to discuss his top 100 horror films list. There was a lot of agreement and discussion about some of these great films. We agreed that right now is a “golden age” for horror films.

When you are the 90s zeitgeist and you don’t even know it because you are just busy being yourself in the 90s. Including wearing the blue bandana I basically stole from my dissipated pool-shark muscle-car-driving current flame. The bandana smelled like him. Therefore I had to have it. Problem solved

Since this has been a running joke on my Facebook for six years now (and was on Twitter as well), it’s only fair that I inflict it upon y’all as well.
