Forgive me reader, but I’m going to reference a tweet. The other day I saw someone I don’t know talking about films, and it said: “There is a loss in going from Cronenberg, who is obsessively steeped in Heidegger, McLuhan & Freud, to his legions of imitators, who are obsessively steeped in Cronenberg, giallo & The Shining.” They may or may not have been right (reading between the lines, they were probably talking about The Substance, which is a film I haven’t seen yet – and hear is very good! – but which is kind of beside the point anyway).
