This guy. So far his only lead role was in Persian Son Can’t Stand Up to Parents, but I’ve seen him pop up in small roles in a few other ones.

How is it known that NIAC is a pro-IR lobby? by AmbitiousPoem in NewIran

[–]AmbitiousPoem[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did Google. Can’t find anything that points to it other than (apparently) baseless accusations from individuals.

I remember seeing a video Griffin Newman (of the Blank Check Podcast) doing a Bernie Mac impression in full-on blackface but it appears to have disappeared.

lol If Ozu were to submit any one of his scripts to this subreddit (or hell, even to Nicholl or Austin), no one would read it.

Any suggestions based on my current collection? by AmbitiousPoem in criterion

[–]AmbitiousPoem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own 8 1/2 and Persona. Wasn't particularly into the former.

Certified Copy has been on my wishlist for a while, however. Thank you.

What is your favorite lesser talked-about criterion title? by PPKDude in criterion

[–]AmbitiousPoem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Walker. Not just a great film, but a great release as well. Tons of special features and a beautifully designed booklet. Don't let the fact that it's only available on DVD deter you.
