Fright Night (Patreon)

I confess that I was rooting for Wake in Fright (which I've never seen) to defeat Seven (which I love but have seen multiple times) in this week's request poll, and indeed it did, by a healthy 10-point margin. Looks like it's currently streaming on Amazon Prime. Again, I know essentially nothing about it, apart from having become increasingly conscious of its strong reputation over the past decade or so. Pretty excited.

FYI and unrelated: I see that movie theaters are starting to reopen in many U.S. cities, and that some of my peers/friends have either gone or have plans to go. While I'm not judging anyone who makes that decision, you're not gonna be seeing my Tenet review—or thoughts on any other film that opens exclusively on the big screen—until it becomes available to watch at home. For at least the rest of this year, in all likelihood. Were I a little more flush at the moment, I might buy the occasional unused ticket online, just to support the theater business; sitting in any enclosed space with any significant number of others, however, isn't something I intend to do until after I've been vaccinated. Does not seem worth the risk to me. There's no movie I can't wait a few months to see.
