Best movie of last year, fam.
If you missed it last year, Mike Flanagan's adaptation of Stephen King's THE LIFE OF CHUCK has just launched on Kanopy. It's free to stream without ads or subscriptions, all through participating libraries. Also still available on Hulu.

When anyone from SCTV dies it’s like 30 people have died. Every character they created was as alive as anyone else you’ve ever met.

Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future.

Such a beautiful scene. A MIGHTY WIND is a very funny movie; it's also very warm. It always gets me, watching everyone put everything else aside because they are jolted by the feeling of a song they all know. Catherine O'Hara was a remarkable talent.

Catherine O'Hara as Katharine Hepburn for SCTV.

Genius, genius, genius.

Catherine O'Hara is the only movie mom that could keep losing her kid and we'd still love her anyway. Delia Deetz forever. And don't even get me started on the magic of Mickey Crabbe and Moira Rose. RIP to a national treasure.

By the way, if you haven't seen it yet, watch THE STUDIO for Catherine O'Hara alone. She steals every scene she's in.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
