For those who might have forgotten, Dolly was always punk as fuck

"I made jokes about it, but it's the truth that I kind of patterned my look after the town tramp. I didn't know who she was, just this woman who was blonde and piled her hair up, wore high heels and tight skirts, and, boy, she was the prettiest thing I've ever seen. Mama used to say, 'Aw, she's just trash,' and I thought, That's what I want to be when I grow up. Trash."

One way you know Dolly Parton lived life the right way: I don’t think anyone’s going to get fired for accurately quoting Dolly Parton today.

not sure how to express this without sounding like a chair-turned-around youth pastor, but there's something so radical about having your most well-known lyric be "i will always love you" and then sincerely embodying it whenever possible

every billionaire & tech mogul, they all want to be adored & celebrated without doing the things Dolly did with a fraction of the power & money. What she had, she gave away. I'm sure she was comfortable (& that's good!). But she just relentlessly helped. It's not that difficult. Love. Care. Help. 💚🌸

I think the universal grieving comes in no small part from the fact she represented the best of what America could be, and that she never stopped chasing that ideal, artistically and socially

It's a cliche, but I really did think Dolly Parton would live forever. What a force of light, energy, and creativity, whose power will continue to reverberate with resonance of the surest strum.

Weird Al and Dolly Parton are different aspects of the same ethos. Both are prolific, great, genre-defining musicians iconic for intentionally playful, exaggerated personas but universally loved for their authenticity (& kindness). All while working for decades AND maintaining a sense of privacy.

It’s inaccurate to say Mario is brave and Luigi is cowardly Luigi is afraid of death, so he runs away from danger. Mario is afraid of living, so he runs towards death. Both brothers are cowards in their own way

To other film festivals out there, especially those of you that regularly platform films from the major studios. Now seems like a great time to NOT DO THAT. If three total companies are going to own the world we all have a responsibility to work harder than ever to discover and platform new voices.

The Apartment is a Christmas movie and a New Year's Eve movie and a perfect movie, period

black & white screenshot of Jack Lemmon's C.C. Baxter and Shirley MacLaine's Miss Fran Kubelik in Baxter's apartment. Fran is wearing a plaid flannel robe with her arms crossed, looking at Baxter who's showing her a fruitcake - and his bare knee - where he once accidentally shot himself. his little Charlie Brown Christmas tree is in the foreground, covered in tinsel, lights, and metallic round ornaments.

MacLaine's Fran sitting alone wearing a dress and pearls in a Chinese restaurant, looking grim in a New Year's paper crown with two champagne glasses in front of her.
