NEW for @theathletic.bsky.social:

I spoke with the director of NICKEL BOYS RaMell Ross about his love for basketball, NBA aspirations, playing at Georgetown and how he pivoted to become an Oscar-nominated filmmaker.

How RaMell Ross shifted from a Georgetown guard to an Oscar-nominated director
Ross will always love basketball. He didn't know that love eventually would pivot to creating award-winning stories through film.

Proud to stand with my Canadian colleagues today.

I am organizing to improve working conditions at The Athletic.

The Athletic is a unique and valuable voice in Canadian sports media.

Its Canadian employees take great pride in the reputation we've helped build and the standard we've set.

That's why we're taking steps to unionize our workplace. Our mission statement:

“Clearly there’s an audience for films that are really pushing the envelope.”

A fantastic Q&A with THE BRUTALIST director Brady Corbet following a screening of the film in 70mm.

Thanks TIFF and Elevation Pictures for hosting.

Looking forward to seeing this in 70mm at TIFF with a Q&A after with director Brady Corbet.

The Bears: Lose a game on botched clock management.

The Raiders: Hold my beer.

Why is Patrick Mahomes throwing a deep ball on third-and-2?

You need two yards to win the game.

Just mind-boggling decisions by both teams before the two-minute warning.

Why do the Raiders take a timeout there?

If the goal was to kick the field goal that whole time, why not just do that?

Terrible decision.

That might be the worst time management at the end of the game I've ever seen.

Horrible way for Bears to lose.

The Lions win their first Thanksgiving game since 2016.

📍Royal Alexandra Theatre

Went to see “COME FROM AWAY” for the first time tonight.

An upbeat, funny and heartwarming musical about the heroism a small part of Canada displayed during 9/11.

Long live Gander, Newfoundland.
