If you have never explored the cinematic world of Rosalind Russell, I’m not sure her four Oscar nominations are accurately representative of her skills, screen persona, or best-known works.

Always the Nominee: Rosalind Russell

Est. 1987. Moody Cancerian. Introverted dog dad. Book dragon. Cinephile. ATX. I needed an outlet for my obsessions and list making about film, music, and television, so here we are. Enjoy!

When she does make sense or say something smart, I’m immediately like

Every single time she says something like “we need a ceasefire in Gaza and to stop the genocide” or “GOP is responsible for the shutdown and have no plan to get out of it” or “we should continue the ACA subsidies,” she follows it with some conspiratorial nonsense on Twitter.

I support these parents and their mission.

I know Trump and his minions all have sneering contempt for kids with special needs, but trust me when I say that their parents will absolutely fucking destroy anyone who messes with the special education supports to which they are entitled by law.

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

It’s hard to pick just five but if I had to pick five to highlight Diane Keaton’s range and best work:

Annie Hall
Reds
Baby Boom
Shoot the Moon
Something’s Gotta Give

Jason @jxsxpx.bsky.social · 16h

Seconded.

Mark Harris @markharris.bsky.social · 16h

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.

I hate this so much. One of my faves. A brilliant comedienne, an underrated dramatic actress, and one of our best kooks. I just adored her.

Jason @jxsxpx.bsky.social · 16h

One of the all-timer wins in this category. I SAID WHAT I SAID

I’ve tried to go back to sleep like five times and nothing. At least the ibuprofen tackled some of that headache and body pains.

I still need to read the Hearn collection.

Jason @jxsxpx.bsky.social · 17h

My favorite thing about this movie is the complete and total commitment it makes to artifice. One of the most stylish and gorgeous horror films ever made. And then you add in its sound design? Chef’s kiss. A masterpiece.

Jason @jxsxpx.bsky.social · 18h

It really is.

Well, I won’t be going anywhere for three hours. Let’s watch this banger again.

I’ve been doubling them up for years. Just ruin one weekend and get it over and done with.
