Stephen Berg @stephenberg2.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Today would have been Glenn Gould's 94th birthday. You really should celebrate it by listening to either of his recordings of Bach's Goldberg Variations. Or watch Thirty Two Short Films About Glenn Gould, which you can find on YouTube.

Stephen Berg @stephenberg2.bsky.social · 11/09/2026They're only up to the Os in the reading of the names. Such staggering loss, even 25 years later. Probly moreso with all the people who've died since from breathing that toxic crap. 011

Stephen Berg @stephenberg2.bsky.social · 11/08/2026It's a shame TCM isn't showing "Baby Face" or "Night Nurse" for Barbara Stanwyck day tomorrow. But they ARE showing "The Lady Eve" and "Ball of Fire" starting at 8p.m., and both are delightful and well worth your time if you've never seen them (and even if you have seen them). #filmsky 010
