yes - it would be so unfair and such a loss to dismiss Keaton's achievements - Annie Hall, Love and Death, etc because of later revelations about Allen

I don't argue with anyone who won't watch a Woody Allen movie; it's a personal choice, different for everyone. But Diane Keaton is a big reason I almost never say "[Movie X] is dead to me." My argument isn't "Separate the artist from the art"; it's that movies are never just one person's legacy.

I was more terrified by Indian - Pakistan skirmishes in Kashmir than Cuba. Maybe because I lived in Singapore then. I was a fully grown adult for Star Wars :-)

Reds is a terrific film and Diane Keaton in very brave performance

Mark Harris @markharris.bsky.social · 11h

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 moment that always springs to mind is this from Godfather 2. The heartbreak and total fear she shows without saying a word. Just perfect. What a loss.

Boris Johnson breached rules designed to stop abuse of contacts made in public office, watchdog finds

Johnson found to have breached rules after refusing to answer specific questions about allegations published by the Guardian Boris Johnson breached rules designed to stop the abuse of contacts and access made in public office, an ethics watchdog has found. Last month the Guardian published revelations about Johnson’s conduct since leaving office. The Boris Files, a trove of documents from the former prime minister’s private office seen by the Guardian, suggested he repeatedly broke rules forbidding him from exploiting contacts made in office for private gain.
