Dog loving movie director/writer/composer. Love my wife, my kids and my grandson. I can talk you to death about movies, politics, history and fantasy football. I'm currently in post production on my new film LUCKY STRIKE about the Battle of the Bulge.
Screening my brand new film about the second world war for the first time in a proper American theater for a big audience, including several veterans. I am obviously quite nervous… But also energized. Three chairs for the amazing scott eastwood in the performance of his life.

If Trump had been elected Pope as he wanted… What name would he have taken?

had a wonderful dinner catching up with my pal Noah. Right now I would say he is the hottest man in Entertainment. And deservedly so. How great is. #thepitt?

as a man who has directed a well received film about the GWOT, I'll tell you WARFARE absolutely humbles me. What a stunning film. Co directed by my former military advisor Ray Mendoza. Our veterans are worthy of so much more than what is being taken away from them right now. This film honors them.

Among these men imprisoned and sent to a super prison in El Salvador is an innocent man. We know that because the Trump administration conceded, they made a mistake by deporting Kilmar Garcia... and now they say they can't get them back. What a disgusting inept administration. How brazenly cruel.

so good to see that our president is focusing on the plight of the middle class and our national security

My three month old grandson Zev is for the first time watching one of his grandfather's movies. He's among the first in the country to see Lucky strike starring scott eastwood. I'm sure he'll be posting his review soon.

Rham Emmanuel may be the answer for the Democrats. Because the current leadership is sorely fucking lacking. he is one tough son of a bitch. he has an impeccable résumé is his being Jewish a problem? I really don't know. Who would be your candidate to put at the top of the Democratic party?

this is all happening right in front of our eyes. The whole world sees it. Why can't we?

THE PITT is the finest medical television show I've ever seen. Period and it's easily the best thing that Noah Wyle has ever done in his career… And he was one of the stars of a film that I directed!

"US sides with Russia"
This is happening right in front of our eyes.

Guess which of these two were fired from the joint chiefs of staff by Donald Trump. Just guess? This is happening right in front of our eyes, guys. Right in front of our fucking eyes.

is this the first elected official who has literally gotten into his face? I think so. Three cheers for the governor of Maine who is taking no shit from anybody.

has there ever been a dictator who has not used this bullshit to establish their power. We have to stand up to the son of a bitch or we are all in a world of hurt.

The Super Bowl is a fantastic time off from the catastrophe going on in our country right now. Especially… When you come in number two out of 3000 in the fantasy football league. That's big money indeed… But even bigger pride! #SuperBowl.
February 10, 2025 at 4:25 AM
it is entirely possible I went a little bit crazy betting on the Super Bowl in Las Vegas. But I've been out of the country for so many months that I have not been really able to bet on football. I need the Eagles to win and almost every player have a fantastic game. #superbowl #eagles #chiefs

Yesterday you were blaming DEI at the FAA. So, please, shut up and let the professionals do their jobs (except you put a hiring freeze on air traffic controllers who are woefully understaffed).

Leader of the Free World at work, folks. #americanairlines #donaldtrump #DEI

Complete an utter bullshit. This is truly a disgusting and bigoted administration.

The Invisible Life of Addie Larue is one of the best books I have read this century and, no hyperbole, one of the greatest love stories I have ever encountered. Anybody here read this book?
