Kermode

As time has progressed, much of this blog's output has become either unnecessary or self-indulgent, or, yes, unnecessarily self-indulgent. Point proven. The rotisserie of this blog's manifesto feeds off of regurgitation and readvancement. The same five or six topics get sucked dry, beaten into submission until no more information can be drawn and updated. This is, I suppose, a personal blog, as delineated by the banner at the top, but it's getting farcical. I'll leave it to the professionals. Those of you who do not frequent the Kermode Uncut blog owe it to yourself to do so. It's becoming the international hub of elitist film criticism, as evidence more and more along the comment reels. Here's Kermode's latest offering, combining his signature wit with his irrepressible opinions. Alone, he doesn't quite produce the alchemy of his radio show with Simon Mayo, but he proves he can go it alone if he needs to.
