Reminder to myself to finish my rom-com script, TAX DAY, about a curmudgeon IRS agent who falls for a whimsical rascal who just so happens to be committing light fraud. Taglines: - On April 15, the one thing they can't write off...is love - When it comes to romance, it's just the W-2 of them.

I keep thinking of all the very funny bits in this — some are big comedic set pieces, others are simply throwaway lines that just *work*. FRIENDSHIP meshed with my sense of humor extremely well. A frontrunner for my fictional Best Comedy Oscar!

Fun fact: I met the terrifying DONNIE DARKO bunny before they were in the movie (and for some reason I was absolutely cool with it?!)

The Oscars are neat because they highlight movies (good or bad — it's all subjective!) that otherwise would not get a spotlight (e.g. THE SUBSTANCE 💉). Here's a 2025 Oscars preview/film rec hour w/ @rachelharrison.bsky.social, @adamlubitow.bsky.social, and Matt P.: www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyoG...

One of the perks of taking a weekday off is going to see a morning movie. The ideal way to start a day, imo. I watched the suspenseful and sinister romp, HERETIC. I enjoyed it but was baffled that a R-rated movie decided to use the censored version of Radiohead’s “Creep.” Why?! You can swear!
