Was heartened at my UWS screening of Sentimental Value when a little jokette about Gaspae Noé’s 23-year-old Irreversible got the film’s biggest laugh

Last night finally got to see Olivier Assayas’ Paris Awakens, which has the single most French plot imaginable, namely “what if you were sleeping with your dad’s girlfriend, who’s younger than you?”

“Wall Street’s idea of lunch money” Vanguard adds $595K worth of $NXXT. BlackRock drops $990K. Forefront $852K. Geode $535K. UBS $75K. Total? $5.0M → $17.8M if $NXXT re-rates to $6. Retail: “I’ll wait for confirmation.” Confirmation: “It’s already $5.85.”

Stoked to never have to think about Andrew Cuomo again for the rest of my days

Caught up with Pret-à-Porter before it skedaddled from Criterion Channel and this crash zoom into Stephen Rea doing a face is among the wackiest shots in the Altman canon

Look what the fuck someone did to my lock to steal my bike. I’m almost impressed

CUSTOM HOODIES ARE HERE

Every other cyclist in the world after I finally have a bicycle stolen

RIP Prunella Scales, aka Sibil Fawlty, the best joke about her character being was she was worlds' smarter and more capable than her easily flustered nincompoop of a spouse

One of her finest line readings

Easily my favorite celebrity encounter ever. RIP to a queen

These are not easy to find! Good job Nick

If I Had Legs I’d Kick You: I don’t like weighing in on movies in terms of topicality or personal shit, but I and a number of people I know and love have been going through some shit from several angles at once, so this kind of got to me. I also laughed my ass off

Fond memories of watching Ken Jacob’s’ Star Spangled to Death over a winter break, watching it in fits when I could, lugging the discs around like Charlie Brown in that special where has to read War and Peace. RIP to one of the masters

Watching The Great Waldo Pepper, which isn’t great though it’s much better than its non-reputation, but it has *genuinely* jaw-dropping aerial footage with Redford and Bo Svenson cruising around in vintage aircraft while endangering their lives to entertain. Impressive!

How did I not know that there’s a 1985 TV movie called John & Yoko in which Peter Capaldi plays George Harrison

Can't believe Broadcast's “Tender Buttons” turned 20 yrs old this month. Such a pivotal album that blended indietronica, neo-psychedelia, ambient pop and hauntology to sound far ahead of its time. With Trish Keenan's striking voice & songwriting that can't be replicated.

Miami did not disappoint! From cold plunges to cool drinks, we took that LIVE. FIT. GO. lifestyle to a whole new level to celebrate the release of our Limited Edition Spritz Vibe Snowball Frost!

I met Robert Redford twice. Once I was thrown into a room with him and Cate Blanchett, and when they both turned to look at me for my first question I somehow managed to speak. I have nothing original to say about him except he was incredibly kind and lovely and rest in peace man

From Hyde and Go Tweet, in which the usually more conservative Friz Freleng briefly leans more Tex Avery/Bob Clampett

Real treat seeing this with a crowd of cackling older New Yorkers. Heartened that the biggest laugh was the subway guy going “I could go to a party, get drunk, talk to someone — who knows?”

Things funnier than the “Surrender Dorothy” story from Martin Scorsese and Joseph Minion’s After Hours:

Running on Empty not only a great film but perhaps the greatest film about a die hard fan of the Philadelphia Phillies (played perfectly by Judd Hirsch)
