If you’re in LA you’ve got until the 13th to visit Diane Keaton’s estate auction viewing at Bonham’s on Sunset - a lovingly curated display of clothes, furniture, photography, and personal items the family wanted to share with the public. A must see.
For context, this was ten days ago on Newsom’s podcast while interviewing Ben Shapiro.
a very sweet and emotional Q&A with Nancy Meyers in which she casually dropped that her next film is greenlit and shooting in May
a must read on Rob Reiner’s instrumental role in overturning Prop. 8 and protecting marriage rights for LGBTQ+ couples: www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...
without Rob Reiner’s Castle Rock production company we wouldn’t have: City Slickers, Honeymoon in Vegas, In the Line of Fire, The Shawshank Redemption, Before Sunrise, Dolores Claiborne, Lone Star, Waiting for Guffman, and more - in a six-year period alone
seated for the new Ira Sachs - whose LOVE IS STRANGE, LITTLE MEN, and PASSAGES you should see
Hannah bought a Hot Girls for Zohran shirt and wore it without pants, Jessa isn’t voting, Marnie’s voting for Cuomo, and Shoshana went for Zohran despite some misgivings about his views on Israel
If you watch just one Diane Keaton performance today, consider this devastating gem not enough people have seen
Can’t stress enough that all these and more line the shelves of every thrift shop in America for a few dollars apiece, many of which also stock DVD/Blu-ray players. You could probably score the classic titles and a player for around $50, cheaper than six months of Disney+’s basic ad tier plan.
social media right now is kind of like CABARET: fascism encroaching but in fact it’s really here, TikTok emcees distracting us from the horrors, everyone’s at least a little bit gay, and Liza Minnelli’s talent is celebrated on a regular basis
I’ve ordered a lot of insane promo items from films that time forgot but I think this one takes the cake
Thrilled to see American Cinematheque giving screenwriter Eleanor Perry her own much deserved series. Recommend all of these but THE SWIMMER and DIARY OF A MAD HOUSEWIFE are unmissable.
Rewatched last night. It’s a crime we don’t get 3-5 of these kinds of movies a year, and someone should start prosecuting.
Laurie Metcalf will return as Lady Bird’s mom Marian McPherson in AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY
The success story no one is talking about - still selling tickets in its sixth weekend, almost $50 million gross on a $14 million budget. Until I’m blue in the face, the theatrical business ain’t broke.
