Deeply saddened to learn that poet Andrea Gibson, the subject of the soul-enriching Sundance award winner COME SEE ME IN THE GOOD LIGHT, has passed away. Sending Megan Falley & all their loved ones my deepest condolences.♥️

I can’t wait for you all to see Ryan White’s gorgeous doc.

in the wake of Sinners, it has honestly been really frustrating seeing people make posts like "See what he did with vampires? Give him Blade!"

you want the guy who made one of the highest grossing original films of the past decade...to go BACK to a huge corporation to direct an IP film???

You know that Twilight Zone episode where the kid has amazing psychic powers and can make people disappear with his mind and the entire town is hostage to him and has to cater to his every whim? That’s us right now.

It’s Alien Day — got my dates right this time — so a friendly reminder that I have one goal in life, and that’s to review every licensed tabletop adaptation of the Alien franchise. Heres a thread of what I’ve written about so far. 🧵

“Steven Soderbergh’s work ethic is so legendary that there’s a joke about it: In the time it took me to say this, he made another movie.”

Crying on an airplane at 7:30 in the goddamn AM because I just watched “No Room at the Inn” (THE LEFTOVERS, S2E5) and am overwhelmed by the decency and hope of Matt Jamison.

Public libraries are amazing!
Did you know you can borrow a book from any library in the country and return it to any other library?
Did you know they have subscriptions to huge amounts of national and international media that you can access?

Reminder for no particular reason that the always great June Squibb turned in one of the best performances of this (or any) year in THELMA and we are all lucky to have her ❤️

Without Mel Brooks hiring Lynch to make THE ELEPHANT MAN — on the strength of ERASERHEAD alone — he is very likely just a guy who made a weird film at AFI. That whole filmography you love doesn’t happen.

We all need sponsors and mentors and patrons. We need people who believe in us.
