As a daily viewer of @tcm, I couldn’t have been more excited to hear that next week they’ll be showing 5 films I was a part of, for what some are saying is a big birthday. I’m still not so sure we’ve got the dates right. https://t.co/wk5WThBP6w

Henry Jaglom was what they mean by “one of a kind.” He was a delightfully idiosyncratic, inventive, and playful mensch who spent his life making the films and telling the stories he wanted to tell, alongside his friends and loved ones and idols. We should all be so lucky.

Well that sounds like a good @criterionchannl series. Glad to see studio heads like @Sethrogen still have taste.
