THE CHRONOLOGY OF WATER: Kristen Stewart’s directorial debut is an expansive, evocative work of cinematic poetry with a career-best performance by Imogen Poots. It's a formally ambitious vision that shows Stewart has got the stuff 📽️

For @rollingstone.com, I wrote about Diane Keaton, one of the great actors of the New Hollywood era, even if she's rarely thought of in those terms.

Diane Keaton Was Nobody's Fool

Diane Keaton's roles in the 1970s, from 'The Godfather' to 'Annie Hall,' 'Manhattan,' and more, showed her range, intellect, and unique charisma.

the ending of THE GODFATHER, the best american movie ever made, doesn't work without diane keaton's final look --- at the realization of who she's married and what her life is going to become and what corruption lurks behind closed doors. unforgettable, inimitable work. RIP.

There are so many Diane Keaton performances to remember, but a lot of people haven't seen Reds, and A) my God, see it, it is a masterpiece and B) her performance as Louise Bryant is one of the bravest, toughest, least sympathy-courting pieces of work by an American actress in the last 50 years.

“‘The Chair Company,’ the latest hilarious and more than a little horrifying vision from the comedic maniac that is Tim Robinson, which is also his most bonkers, brilliant work yet, is not only about chairs.”

This Sunday on HBO.

Chase 'Hutch' Hutchinson 📽️ @eclectichutch.bsky.social · 2d

THE CHAIR COMPANY: Tim Robinson makes another hilarious, rather horrifying series with his expressive acting rivaling the best work of Jim Carrey. It's a show as astute as it is anarchic, proving to be the chaotic conspiracy story for our time 📺

My review: www.thewrap.com/the-chair-co...

Tim Robinson holding up a phone to his ear while pointing at it with a perplexed expression on his face in a still from THE CHAIR COMPANY.

HOUSE OF DYNAMITE: Kathryn Bigelow’s nuclear war drama is interesting on paper, but empty in execution, peaking in the middle before crashing down at the end. Instead of truly staring down annihilation, Bigelow blinks. Rebecca Ferguson innocent 📽️

News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."

One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.

There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.

What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.

It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

Los Angeles Times journalists voted to authorize a strike by a large margin in hopes to reach a new contract with management on Thursday. A strike has not yet been scheduled, but the vote gives the Guild’s leadership authority to call for a work stoppage.
