Sex, misogyny, lighting, religious imagery, and grace: Leah Schnelbach's 8000 words on what makes Wake Up Dead Man so compelling https://t.co/PVc6YqE599

Small talk is actually good, and being unable to engage in it is the real social deficiency

The thing is, behind the camera, in parts big and small and even seeing him around town, Rob Reiner was a presence of such warmth...His scenes in The Bear, he brought so much humanity, its unthinkable he could end this way.

Rob Reiner coming off the bench after not doing any real acting for a ~decade plus and dropping that Wolf of Wall Street performance is all time stuff. Rest easy big dog. The world is a terrible place, shitty place

I can’t handle the truth that one of the greatest filmmakers to ever live is gone. We lost one of the few good men. RIP, Rob Reiner.

A brilliant filmmaker and an even better person. There will be another like Rob Reiner.

Rob Reiner had an incredible run of movies I've seen at least 10 times.

Rob Reiner a wonderful man to work with @TheSimpsons and It’s Garry Shandling’s show; the writers were always very happy when he’d be on…

With THE LAST JEDI, it’s absolutely a central theme of his filmography.

I am horrified and saddened at the tragic loss of one cinema’s greatest directors. I can’t even begin to list the films this guy made that impacted me throughout my life. We all know them. A legend. A true genius. Rest in peace, Rob Reiner 💔 https://t.co/cxQSqBBmpt

One of my all time artistic heroes. The master of class, elegance and heart, such an incredible range of classic films across so many genres. How many iconic scenes, quotable moments, award winning performances was he at the back of. And every one that worked with him loved him.

The range is impressive over and above the number of great movies

The best run anyone has ever had.

I was actually a big Diagnosis Murder fan as a kid. DVD could inject a lot of empathy and soul into procedural scripts, he could always find a moment to make the hairs on your neck stand up.

people posting photos of shirtless men are taking the assignment too literally imo (also, it's WINTER!). imo, the answer is a mohair-blend suit or a double-breasted suit with a denim shirt. or if you want something swanky, a black velvet jacket with flared jeans.

a driver just ran a red light and almost hit me in midtown. I looked up the license plate and this car has 70 school zone speeding violations in the past 6 months, including a single day with four tickets! it’s absolutely absurd that this driver is allowed to stay on our roads

Your must-read of today. An absolutely brilliant behind-the-scenes look at Ron Howard's "Grinch." This piece is so good it'll make you want to watch the movie again.

This is a bombshell, but it's also an infuriating example of burying the point. It's not until 4,400 words into a 9,000-word piece that we are told that the key stories in one of the most famous science nonfiction books of the 20th century are made up!

These people used to sue five-year-olds for having Mickey Mouse on their birthday cake
