But don't you long to be carried on?

Thanks to sasha_feather linking my review of God's Own Country (2017) in a tweet, the review has now been recommended by the film's official Twitter feed:

Your Friday treat! Some incredibly beautiful writing about God's Own Country. Make a cup of tea and enjoy it fully sovay.dreamwidth.org/984559.html

I don't think this has ever happened to me before. Normally when I write about movies, especially on account of all the noir and pre-Code, the people who made them have been dead for years and certainly not checking Twitter. I do not expect to hear back from Powell and Pressburger or Derek Jarman.

Francis Lee liked it:

This is really beautiful prose ❤️ https://t.co/DwkdPByaXl

Wohoo!! This is ***wonderful***

So glad they got to see it, so glad your insights and beautiful writing is in front of people who can spread the word far and wide--and for whom what you write is a personal compliment.

Thank you. This is definitely the good part of the internet.
