Sean Boyer 🇵🇸 FREE PALESTINE

I've spent many Christmases alone, and when I do I have a little tradition of buying a Hungry Man™ TV dinner from the corner store -- weirdly named "Korner Grocery #2", despite being neither on a corner nor the second incarnation.

Then I'd have my little Salisbury steak & microwave-burnt brownie and watch a film by #canadian #scifi #horror #filmmaker #DavidCronenberg.

My favourite #cronenberg films are:

#NakedLunch
#Existenz
#TheFly
#DeadRingers
#Videodrome

What are your favourite non-holiday films to watch this time of year? #joinIn

@RickiTarr /2 Been thinking about this all night, how most of my examples would come from some basic and banal films.

And I think that's they beauty of it, is that they're all #art

The underlying assumption in responses to the thread is that "art" is defined by something that must be transcendent or sublime, a singular work that stands above others is somehow "art" in ways that the others are not.

But I still find art in #billandtedsexcellentadventure or #videodrome or #returnofthelivingdead
