Between Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie, I Want Your Sex, The Invite, and Coyote Vs Acme, this is an unbelievable year for theatrically released comedies. They’re all so different and I love them for it. Very inspiring.

I feel the need to write a bit about Tim Curry before going to bed tonight. I can't speak too much about Tim Curry. From all the remembrances today, I've heard he was an absolutely lovely person, but I didn't know him. However, I knew Dr. Frank N Furter really well.

Did you know Tim Curry had a Hot 100 hit? “I Do The Rock,” from his second album ‘Fearless,’ charted in 1979. The prolific British actor and singer, most famous for his role as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show,’ passed away yesterday at age 80. 🤍 stereogum.com/2509483/tim-...

Ugggggh. I am all cried out from Dolly yesterday. Rocky Horror is a foundational text for me and has very much been on my mind lately. I have a lot to say about Tim Curry's performance and how it shaped the way I live my life, but for now I just want to say: Rest in Fishnets.
Dr Frank N Furter (Tim Curry) is looking seductively over his shoulder.

I think another lesson to take from the loss of both Dolly and Tim Curry is that neither of them took themselves seriously but they took the work dead serious that's the most important thing pour all of yourself into the craft but have fun and don't get an ego.

Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.
Miss Piggy and Dolly Parton in fancy dresses posing together photo of Tim Curry surrounded by muppets, smiling for a photo. A quote from curry is added “it didn’t go very well. It didn’t survive the shoot. She felt I wasn’t being faithful to her” it’s him discussing his ill fated affair with miss piggy

I’ll always remember Dolly Parton for the fact that she donated $1 million in 2020 to the research that led to Moderna’s COVID vaccine, as well as millions more for childhood vaccine and cancer research. She was an immensely talented, kind, and giving person.

The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

This is truly heartbreaking. Dolly Parton was an extraordinary person and an irreplaceable champion of the working class. We are a better country because of her.

Texas’s drag ban was found to be unconstitutional this morning and one of the plaintiffs who brought the suit was an Austin-based drag queen who often impersonates Dolly Dolly was named in the final judgement itself and after hearing about the lawsuit, she sent that drag queen a signed guitar

My heart is literally hurting over Dolly Parton, and I keep sitting here and thinking about her and crying. Her genre-defining/genre-breaking work was just the tip of the iceberg. She was a true humanitarian who saw merit in everyone. We will always love you, Dolly.

Matt Johnson is to Toronto what John Waters is to Baltimore. Happy about all this. Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie is favorite comedy in years.
Exclaim headline reads:
'Heated Rivalry, 'Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie' Top the Canadian Screen Awards“On the film side of things, Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie took home the prestigious Best Motion Picture, while Jay McCarrol won Performance in a Leading Role, Comedy. His co-star Matt Johnson won Performance in a Supporting Role, Comedy, which isn't remotely reflective of the actual role he plays in that film, but is quite fitting for the plot of the movie! Is this a bit?”
