Introducing: Cinema Tyler

Welcome to Cinema Tyler, a new project to share my love of movies with the people I love. Here’s the pitch Cinema Tyler is part traditional newsletter, part no-commitment film club/micro-cinema. The newsletter part is self-explanatory. Every week or so I’ll use this platform to share recommendations of things

Over the weekend we saw Disclosure Day, Steven Spielberg's new UFO thriller, and loved it! I plan to write a quick review today or tomorrow, so keep an eye out for that.

The theme for this week is MEN ON BOATS. This is mostly just an excuse to rewatch Master and Commander, a film whose critical acclaim has been building over the past two decades from modestly successful hidden gem to consensus pick for one of the greatest of the century so far. If you haven't seen it or just want to hear my gush about 19th century British naval life, stop by tonight.

Tom Hanks captains a WWII frigate charged with escorting a convey across the U-boat infested waters of the North Atlantic. You guys, this is the purest distillation of a "dad film". It's 90 minutes long and all of the dialogue is just Hanks ordering them to steer the ship this way or that. It's honestly a really fun, no frills movie. I wished they made more like it.
