It's insane to think that 50 years ago, a small room full of people actually got to HEAR Bruce Springsteen sing this LIVE at The Roxy Theater in West Hollywood.The brilliant lyrics. Those ghostly vocals. That lilting piano, tickling the ears in impossible ways. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgRC...
Thunder Road (Live at the Roxy Theatre, W. Hollywood, CA - October 1975)

DELIVER ME FROM NOWHERE surprised me. I have to say it won me over & at times floored me emotionally. It's such a love letter to his father (as well as Jon Landau). The way Springsteen looks back and is able to empathize with the pain his pop was going through. So powerful & poetic.

Embeth Davidtz is an extraordinary director. Can't believe Don't Let's Go To The Dogs Tonight is her first film. Just read the budget is $1.4m. If that's true, she's a genius! How is no one talking about it? Oh I know why. 49 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. 315 reviews for The Fantastic Four.

I wrote a piece for @talkhouse.bsky.social about adapting my screenplay RUN WEREWOLF RUN into a novel. I think all screenwriters should do this with their unproduced scripts. And WITHOUT AI! www.talkhouse.com/long-live-th...
Long Live the Werewolf!
Or how filmmaker Onur Tukel pushed back against the impending singularity by adapting his lycanthrope screenplay Run Werewolf Run into a novel.

In my opinion, most contemporary horror is embarrassingly overrated, but BRING HER BACK disturbed the fuck out of me. Really good movie.
