Ceci n’est pas une pomme
A curated journal of films, objects, places, and ways of seeing.
A curated journal. Not commentary. Not opinion.
An ongoing record of films, objects, places, and stories — chosen for their restraint, atmosphere, and sense of intent. This is not about keeping up. It’s about noticing.
For those who prefer looking to scrolling.
