En garde! (Patreon)

Frankly, I can’t believe it took so long for the only Spielberg feature I’ve never seen to emerge victorious. Both of this week’s top contenders had been kicking around for a while, actually, with Rear Window getting a sudden boost of its own; each had been mentioned in the comments recently, so perhaps that has something to do with it. In any case, I’m excited to finally see Duel, which I think I may have deliberately ignored back in my video-store days on the grounds that it isn’t a “real movie.” That dude’s head would explode if confronted with the present content-consumption landscape. (Current head may yet explode.)

Have faith, Carpenter fans. It’s clearly gonna win eventually.
