  Elvis 2022

  ★★★½ Watched by Joe Lynch 26 Jun 2022 3

  Well it wasn’t boring!
  2 1/2 hours goes by in a flash but not sure if that’s a good or bad thing, but it’s most definitely a Baz thing. My favorite film of his (not counting his Netflix show) in a while, maybe MOULIN ROUGE! But it felt like more of a cinematic medley than a true biopic. 
  Austin Butler, like Elvis on that stage in the first of a few truly electric performance set pieces, becomes a movie star before our eyes. He was magnetic.
  Tom Hanks was fine but kept reminding me of Dan Aykroyd in NOTHING BUT TROUBLE.

  Diner 1982

  ★★★★ Rewatched by Joe Lynch 25 Jun 2022

  A Baltimore hangout movie so rich with lived in characters that you can smell the gravy on the fries. Does much happen? Does it matter?
  The kind of low stakes drama-comedy I miss.
  It’s amazing how pretty much all of the main characters went on to some form of stardom on film, TV or both.

  Pig 2021

  ★★★★ Watched by Joe Lynch 13 Jul 2021 14

  One of the quietest and most subtly beautiful “revenge” movies I think I’ve ever seen. 
  Still kinda shaking from watching it.
  Go in knowing nothing. 
  Cage needs his Oscar nom campaign NOW.
