Tom Stoppard was a brilliant writer with a nice handful or two of theatrical masterpieces, but his adaptation of Le Carré's THE RUSSIA HOUSE for film is an underrated wonder of screenwriting craftsmanship.

Farewell to Terence Stamp.

Here he is (I'll say!) in MODESTY BLAISE, where I've watched him most because of my spouse's - ahem - REACTION to him in this film.

I got to mention that to him at a book signing, and he heartily laughed and laughed and laughed.

Okay, after posting the below, came across this pic from 9 years ago the same day, when they were 5 months old. Sweeties!

Happy #internationalcatday🐱 from Ms. Nelson and Mr. Jones (Nelly and Jonesy). Nine years old and still fascinating little creatures.

Aw, man. The great Ken Colley has left us.

Always memorable in 7 of Ken Russell's films, PERFORMANCE, RETURN TO WATERLOO, HOW I WON THE WAR, JUGGERNAUT, of course Admiral Piett, as well as the Accordion Man in PENNIES FROM HEAVEN.

Brought in as the "serious actor" to play Christ in LIFE OF BRIAN:

I don't often sample of the ever-changing "daylist" that Spotify creates for me, but I follow it intently for what "genre" is right for me in the moment.

Hard to pick a top 10 from 2001-2025, and there's 8 to 10 films I can't believe aren't here, but in the end, yeah:

Happy 49th to my beloved, my collaborator, my spouse, and my partner in life, work, and art, Berit Johnson, who has amazed me for 25 years and continues to, regularly.
