Book Recommendation: Unless Tom Hanks or Seinfeld are in it, I know nothing about baseball. But this book by @gittlitz.bsky.social was incredible & so readable. Not just a history of the Mets but a sociological look at NY history through them & their fans. www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/808034...

On a Jean Arthur kick and just started The Devil and Miss Jones. More movies should start with sarcastic disclaimers to rich men.

This one hurts. Sam Neill, a true legend and remarkable man. His work was a huge part of my growing up from JURASSIC PARK to THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER. He left behind some incredible performances for us to continue to watch over and over. Thanks, Sam. ❤️

After hearing the @mpotpod.bsky.social episode about YOR, THE HUNTER FROM THE FUTURE, I just had to find it and watch it. Thanks @robogeek.bsky.social, @okbjgm.bsky.social, and @producerbrad.bsky.social for bringing this magic (and theme song) into my life. Can't wait for the new season!

Not enough people are talking about THE BRIDE! Anyone else see it? I thought it was absolutely insane, bold, and a wild ride. Dying to see it again. Thoughts?

There are not enough people talking about THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE. I thought this film was strikingly beautiful. Every shot a renaissance painting. And the performances were stellar! Plus the musical-esque quality of the storytelling was a bold swing that I adored. Who else has seen this? Thoughts?

Friends, writers, optimists, lend me your ears. If you have not yet seen RENTAL FAMILY, I urge you to. First time in a long time I felt hopeful leaving the cinema. A warm and genuine film. And we must protect Brenden Fraser at all costs.

What a heart warming movie, ELEANOR THE GREAT. Definitely check this one out for a stellar character study and remarkable raw emotions that run the gamut. Beautifully done and June Squibb is a delight.

Book Recommendation: @daynadirector.bsky.social has written an incredible and pop-off-the-page novelization of the '60s horror movie SPIDER BABY. What a weirdly awesome story told in an immersive and creepy way. Congrats, Dayna! Background spider actor was fully on board for this photo. 🕷️

Book Recommendation: If you're a fan of SNL, or even if you're not, LORNE was an incredible BTS and biographical read. Bouncing back and forth in time for a full look at how the SNL sausage is made, this book was a feat. Highly recommend. Then make sure you watch the "SATURDAY NIGHT" movie!

I finished reading James A. Michener's SPACE over the weekend, and I pulled out this quote. "An age is called Dark not because the light fails to shine, but because people refuse to see it." Published in 1982.

No writer is a failure until they are dead. Full stop. A career in writing is built over decades. It's built like a house, brick by brick, book by book. Not published yet? Emphasis on YET. Book not selling? It's not selling YET. You're only done when you quit. And I don't think you're ready to quit

Book Recommendation: We lost a great cinematic master this last week. In honor of David Lynch, I highly recommend his half-autobiography/half-biography. One of the best books I've read on a director and written in a way only Lynch could do.

Book Recommendation: For the last of 2024, I highly recommend this breakdown of "what is scary" and "how does horror work." King breaks down dozens of films, TV shows, and novels to explain structure and what makes good horror. Yes, it's dated, but still relevant! Write on, folks!

Book Recommendation: This was an awesome dive into the romantic lives of the Stevensons & their extraordinary work. The traveled all over the world & seemed to live hundreds of lives apart & together. Their creative work was almost minor in comparison...almost. A lovely read for literature fans.

Book Recommendation: A fascinating & intimate look of the life that made the man. While there are some years that seem to be missing, Pacino delivers a moving, tender, & eye-opening recount on what drove him to be carefree but determined. Get the audiobook, if you can. It's read by Pacino himself.

Book Recommendation: If you love old Hollywood and reading about how movies are made, if you enjoy reading history, and if you want to find out about how Edna Ferber pissed off some Texans, this was a great read. A snapshot into the behind the scenes and impact from this fantastic film.

Book recommendation: I absolutely recommended this to some, but let me recommend to all. This book is a chef's kiss homage and love letter to Shakespeare and his work. And Judi is a spark! Get the audiobook, if you can, she is hysterical reading herself. Her laugh and love of the man is infectious.
