RIP Harris Yulin, another Always Great In Everything character actor. Scorsese told De Palma when he showed him SCARFACE "They're gonna hate you for this in Hollywood, because it's about them" and Yulin really oozed a certain type of venal showbiz exec as a dirty cop, didn't he? (he dies)

Movie night with the kiddo. Monday night was “Monster Monday” and we watched the original Wolf Man. Tonight we decided it was “Frightful Friday” so we watched this fun one. Totally forgot it was Bela Lugosi playing Frankenstein! Fun was had.

When Clive Barker was working on the MUMMY remake for Universal in the early '90s, he had a trans character in the script, and when the studio vetoed it, he basically said "I really can't stress how much I don't need to fucking make THE MUMMY" and left.

This truly made my day getting a name check from @realgdt.bsky.social. We first met when he came to TIFF (aka The Festival of Festivals) for Cronos and we bonded over a love of Tsui Hark movies ❤️🎥

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Comment from a friend - “coworker traveled to NYC this week and upon her return, the US border guard asked her if she'd learned the US anthem yet in preparation for becoming the 51st State, and not in a joking way. America is cooked for us.”

Dear Chuck, NATO, England, US Democrats, Et Al. Canada, Greenland and Panama shouldn't have to be looking for coded secret messages of support. When Cheeto Hilter talks about invading other countries, the only acceptable response is "Shut the fuck up about that, Cheeto Hitler."

Made my first Substack post, but based around someone else's work. I hope to follow with more optimistic stuff, but GD this is so stressful. If you are American, please read just to be aware. It doesn't have to be like this.

I was privileged to know Gene Hackman because he played tennis with another Gene—Gene Wilder. And that Gene told him about a little role called The Blind Hermit in our movie YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN…
