He's in his element in Kent Jones' witty drama Late Fame, playing a 'man of letters' ie a postman who is also a poet. 4 out of 5 film-authority.com/2026/10/15/l...

Kent Jones; Written by Samy Burch, based on the novella by Arthur Schnitzler. Featuring: Willem Dafoe, Greta Lee, Edmund Donovan, & Clark Johnson. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycil...
neutral · AI labelView post →It would make a rather good double bill with another melancholic, funny New York literary film, Can You Ever Forgive Me? I enjoyed Late Fame, I recommend it to anyone. Watching Dafoe in a lead role as a normal person, as good as anything cinema can offer.
positive · AI labelView post →I thought this movie would be canonized in the indie movie Hall of Fame but it's become surprisingly under remembered.
neutral · AI labelView post →Thanks, Be! I love this one - Fame the movie & series were both great.
positive · AI labelView post →Fame is not the same as recognition and appreciation. “TV and movie milling of actors of the day so fans can harass them for autographs” is fame. People knowing who to thank for a good deed is recognition and appreciation.

In Late Fame, Willem Defoe's character navigates a group of young NYC intellectuals, His facial expressions alone are worthy of study in a sociology class. ghost.edandclass.com/social-class...

He built movie sets (including the Emerald City), and he and his fellows deserve recognition. And find a way to become Del Toro’s patron à la Wes Anderson and his bankroller.

neutral · AI labelView post →A sequel to Fame where we revisit the washed up characters after more than 45 years and hear them moaning about how they could have been contenders, with one of them having randomly become mega famous, could genuinely be fascinating. #TOTP #Fame
neutral · AI labelView post →I think what makes this film work, even now, is that it selected it's stars from a bunch of aspiring and talented individuals whom it was perfectly plausible to believe in. To like and dislike. It has something about it that offers hope, optimism and realism to people from a range of backgrounds whose skills with their feet, their fingers or their voices might well be the only thing saving them from a life of banality in parts of New York that couldn't have cared less if they lived or died. On…
positive · AI labelView post →Watched an episode of #Fame made in 1983, dealing with racial prejudice. It was heavyhanded, but made me explore when laws came in stateside intended to prevent that kind of crap - 1963. In the UK, they got them in 1964, but they were so limited that they were still adding to them over a decade later. It also formed a good reminder of how, when it comes to discrimination, black people need white help, women need male backup, LGB need straight support and trans/queer/intersex etc need cis buy-in.
