"In Heaven..."
I once had the honor and privilege of interviewing David Lynch and he was great. The way he told me the story of the Dance of the Little Man in his unique voice was unforgettable.

Sammy Davis's forelorn walk after losing his big NYE score is my favorite moment in OCEAN'S 11 and aptly sums up 2024. Happy New Year to all and to all let's have a better 2025.

Happy BDay Ridley Scott. I stopped being interested in his films after LEGEND (1985), which despite flaws, is easily one of the most visually stunning films ever made. Each shot is like a fantasy painting like this Greg Hildebrandt-esque image.

"It satirizes our ideas about heroes, our ideas about the Big Caucasian Male who's gonna step in there and take care of the situation -- and he doesn't at all."

Here's the iconic radio show, Hour 25, from 1987 with a great John Carpenter interview & his correct POV on BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA.

Happy Bday Bruce Lee. Watch this 1964 screen test & realize what he was up against as a Chinese actor/martial artist trying to break through in America. This is not Tarantino's bullshit arrogant parody but a humble charismatic dynamo. This test led to his role in the 1966 THE GREEN HORNET TV show.

But now I just don't know
