I grew up in Houston and can remember when RUSHMORE was shooting, so Wes Anderson has always loomed large in my cinematic imagination. A treasure to talk with him about his latest delight, THE PHOENICIAN SCHEME, alongside Michael Cera for @Slant_Magazine 🔗👇

An honor doesn't even begin to encompass my experience of getting to interview Jafar Panahi, a true compass pointing toward the light of free expression in these dark times, about his Palme d'Or-winning IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT. For @Slant_Magazine:
slantmagazine.com
Jafar Panahi discusses the role of sound in 'It Was Just an Accident,' what the word "accident" means to him, and more.

Me, a party to this as well
just chatted with Joel Edgerton about movies for 20 minutes at an afterparty where I watched Paul Schrader shuffle back and forth from the bar chewing something indiscernible

REBUILDING was a real standout for me at Sundance, and I hope this beautiful little film doesn’t get lost in the four film fall for Josh O’Connor. Thanks to @bleeckerstfilms for elevating my words in the trailer!
Set against the beauty of Colorado's San Luis Valley, REBUILDING is “the movie people need right now" (@IndieWire). Josh O’Connor stars with Meghann Fahy and Amy Madigan in a soulful story of second chances from Max Walker-Silverman. In select theaters 11/14 and nationwide 11/21.

For @RollingStone, I wrote about Diane Keaton, one of the signature actors of the New Hollywood era, even if she's rarely thought of in that way. https://t.co/kx8G871wqU
rollingstone.com
Diane Keaton's roles in the 1970s, from 'The Godfather' to 'Annie Hall,' 'Manhattan,' and more, showed her range, intellect, and unique charisma.

Am I proud of this? Debatable. Another great year at @TheNYFF, can't wait to run myself ragged again in 2026. https://t.co/KgK9OVcQDX

the ending of THE GODFATHER, the best american movie ever made, doesn't work without diane keaton's final look --- at the realization of who she's married and what her life is going to become and what corruption lurks behind closed doors. unforgettable, inimitable work. RIP.

Diane Keaton in ANNIE HALL made me realize that my love of movies was something more than just a hobby. An irreplaceable, inimitable icon. The lights of cinema have grown a little dimmer today.

The actual best dressed man at New York Film Festival? Dennis Lim, @TheNYFF's artistic director! Talked to Alice Tully Hall's fit god in residence about those Evan Kinori blazers and Auralee suits for @GQMagazine

Sincere apologies to Timothée Chalamet and Alexander Skarsgård. The festival’s unassuming artistic director, Dennis Lim, is the fit god in residence at Alice Tully Hall.

It's been my performance of the year all year long, so it was a true honor to talk with Rose Byrne about her career-best work in IF I HAD LEGS I'D KICK YOU (out starting tomorrow from @A24). For @Slant_Magazine:
