In a former life I was the lipstick Diane Ladd used to paint her face in ‘Wild at Heart.’ Now I just do whatever.

I had the privilege last week of being a “camp counselor” for my theater’s youth-oriented Film Camp. It was fun shaping the minds of burgeoning cinephiles.
Below is a candid picture of me explaining how TITANIC uses film language to establish there was not, in fact, room on the door for Jack.

With South Park roaring back to the monoculture this week, I have a confession to make: the Saddam/Satan relationship is one of my favorite gay couples ever on screen.

I’m about a week behind everyone else on sharing their “best of the 21st century” lists. But I’m ready to enter the discourse now that everyone has moved on!

Truly amazing how much of a stranglehold dinosaurs have on my imagination, even well into adulthood.
Evidence is a new Jurassic Park movie. Despite the series being unable to scrape together a good sequel, my response to the trailer isn’t indifference, but “Omg T-rex can go swims now aaaaaahhhhh!”

Couldn’t be more delighted that this week’s ‘Poker Face’ is a low-key ‘Slums of Beverly Hills’ reunion.
Even the director is Adam Arkin, the late Alan’s son.

Still haven’t watched the final 3 episodes of Andor. But seriously. It honestly thought Star Wars wasn’t allowed to be this good anymore, if ever.

Watching Andor (only on episode 8, so no spoilers yet pls!) It occurs to me that Syril and Dedra have basically the same anti-romantic dynamic as Sharon Fisherman and Edgar from ‘Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar.’

This is a big moment for Rhea Perlman fans, with her appearance in both The Studio and Poker Face.
