Go ahead -- try it with something like un chien andalou, psycho, or possession Certain movies never lose their ability to destabilize even the most smug, seen-it-all audience

So, happy 89th anniversary of the day Oswald Mosley tried to sell fascism to Liverpudlians—and someone concussed him with a brick

We celebrate Eva Marie Saint, who died today at 102. A #SagAftraMember since 1947, Saint won an Oscar for her film debut in 'On the Waterfront' and starred in 'North by Northwest.' An advocate for organized labor, she leaves an enduring example for generations of union members.

I did not have "Donald Trump doxxing Tom Cotton over daylight savings" on my Bingo card. But I support it, I guess? Both making daylight savings permenant and making Tom Cotton miserable.

Jim Henson would have been 90 (yup, you read that right: NINETY) years old today. You can celebrate his life by celebrating creativity, diversity, peace, imagination, and silliness.

yo I hate to break it to yall but the silver fox that town needs, c'est moi. but when I was cast in Poker Face it sent ripples of fear through the industry. they just could not handle the smoke. any casting director who really wants to take it to the next level, I'm easy to find
John Darnielle, the "silver fox" for whom Hollywood has been looking since the 80s, standing in plain view in front of the late Cameron's Books in Portland, a place he used to stop by a lot in the 80s. Man in glasses & a stylish white tee, salt-and-pepper beard and goatee, blond highlights, in the hair, the complete package. Behind him the sign for Cameron's books, legendary brown on yellow, faded & graff'd. a "street closed" sign against some abandoned tables that lean against the bookstore's shuttered red storefront. The erotic energy of the photograph crackles through the screen
