Personal cringe moment.

I was screening a film in a cinema in 1998, we had a reel issue, I stopped the film, apologized to the audience, fixed the issue in less than two minutes, the film was well received and I forgot about it.

I was only told later that the director of that film was in the audience 😳😳😳

BACKROOMS: A frustrated furniture-store owner discovers a seemingly infinite maze of mysterious rooms in the back of his store, and invites his therapist to help explore them. Explore the labyrinths of the subconscious in this ambiguous and terrifying psychological horror. 5/5.

Audience notes: The theater was packed, which surprised me due to the surreal nature of the story, even though I had heard it was doing good business. There were a bunch of teenagers who probably were familiar with 20-year old director Kane Parsons from his YouTube series of the same name. Some parents took two boys to this, I would estimate ages 7-11. The younger one got scared and had to leave. The older one was pretty excited at the end and praised it as "scary and weird."

Sorry, I mis-numbered and corrected it. High and Low should be 47 and the next one is 48.

"Avengers" is not the same word as "Avenger," but I'll play on anyway.

Transformers: Age of Extinction (2014)

If you weren't watching Hong Kong cinema before, that is. I liked it but thought it was inferior to, say, Tsui Hark.

Did you see The Blade just got a Criterion 4k?  What a great film, been wanting a high quality release for like 20 years at this point.  Just got it in.

No, I did not realize that. A bit surprised, but then again Criterion also released a Bruce Lee box set.
