Love the romanticism of US road trips, but Joanna's experience in this work put paid to that. Permanently. So sad to see how wide and steep the decline is, and the indifference / resignation everywhere. Grim.

Cheers for that. I would take a bullet to the face for the music of the Blue Nile, and when I get lowered into the clay it will be to the sound of Paul's voice. A recent gem as good as anything they did before... youtu.be/EE70AgkeTZc?...

Thanks to all for your kind remembrances on this awful day. Words will come later. Only feelings at the moment. Mourn and remember him but don’t forget to celebrate too. We won’t see his like again. The man from another place has gone home. #DavidLynch #TwinPeaks

I loved David Lynch's work, especially the final Twin Peaks series, because it suggested strongly that the weird world, not the real world, is the true world.

The Irish equivalent set in Rathfarnham terrified the life out of me at the time. Would love to see a big screen adaptation.

The John Le Carré Advent Calendar - My cartoon for this week’s @theguardian.com Books. (with apologies to @realjohnlecarre.bsky.social and @harkaway.bsky.social)
Title: The John Le Carré Advent Calendar - Available in all good bookshops.

Description -  December 1st to 23rd: open the door to watch Gerorge Smiley reluctantly uncover a conspiracy as he wanders around the damp, dilapidated London of the seventies.

(images of six of the doors, showing a stick figure os Smiley going about his business in shades of browny-gray)

December 24th: Having solved the mystery and written his resignation letter, Smiley eats Christmas dinner alone.

Joel Coen is 70. I know they're infuriating to some people but they have created more brilliant, haunting & enigmatic last scenes than most. I remember my students telling me that they went to see No Country & that audience members were swearing angrily at the screen as it finished.
