Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

The owners of Bridgeport Records, a record shop, received a death threat Saturday night for selling diverse music. “An older white man called and said he was on his way to kill us,” Morrison said. “This was someone who had been in the store, knew the layout, knew our music.”

It looks like it's been scrubbed from every official 60 Minutes page now.
It's only a 30-second promo but here it is if you didn't get a chance to see it.

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

I just watched the New Heights podcast with the Kelsey brothers and they had George Clooney on. The last bit where Clooney says his first Hollywood moment reminded me of @shawnlevy.com Paul Newman book. He offered him a beer and a cigarette. Perfect.

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.
