Got my copy of the @secondsightfilms.bsky.social 4K release of The Nice Guys, featuring my essay linking Russell Crowe’s character in the film as the spiritual successor of Bud White in L.A. Confidential. Huge thanks to @phillipescott.bsky.social for thinking of me for this one!

My next book will be a biography of Jack Nicholson, written as an epic story of the transformation of the movie industry and modern masculinity from the 1950s to the present, with Nicholson as the main character. The title: Leading Man.

New York Times bestselling author and film & TV critic at New York Magazine Matt Zoller Seitz's LEADING MAN, the definitive biography of Jack Nicholson, casting Nicholson as the complex main character in an era of American culture spanning six decades, while shining a light on the actor’s crucial role in shaping modern masculinity, both on and off the screen, based on new interviews and original reporting, to Amar Deol at Grand Central, in an exclusive submission, by Ethan Bassoff at WME.

It's here! Last week I chatted with Channing Tatum, Kirsten Dunst and Derek Cianfrance for the LA Times (!). We talked ROOFMAN, Frank Capra vibes, and, yes, that nude scene that required 15 takes! I'm so thrilled I got to do this.

Diane Keaton at The Schwab’s Pharmacy counter in 1983.

Farewell to one cinema's greatest legends Can’t believe we’ve lost her. Such a shock. Rest in peace Diane Keaton. “La-dee-da, la-dee-da” forever.

Jesus. Diane Keaton. RIP to a legend who managed to carve out a lifelong career in an industry that frequently robs women like her of dignity and status once they hit 40.

Diane just threw on a turtleneck and said "fuck you, I'm still going."
