‘Angel Heart’ teaches a lesson of self-acceptance. Johnny Favorite sold his soul for fame and now the devil is back to collect. He learns that you can only outrun the Devil for so long. Just like you can only outrun the past for so long. The resolution is acceptance. In life, we reap what we’ve sown.

By the end of the movie, Johnny is forced to look in the mirror and take responsibility for his choices. And through his journey, the movie urges you to look in the mirror and consider your own journey of self-acceptance.

Absolutely beautiful. A film to make you appreciate the here and now. It reminds me of the serenity prayer:

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

I often describe my connection with art as psychedelic. I’m creating and searching for art that feels like a kaleidoscope of life. That’s this video.

The blank faces, the ominous zoom, the gorgeous color grade. This film is a beautiful, visceral nightmare.

This 10-part series is an unflinching look at America’s role in the Vietnam war. The film vividly illustrates the process of dehumanization and the dangers of conformity. The archival footage, the sobering interviews, and the passage of time. Everything about the execution of this film is potent.
