@xlorentzen What was your line pre-release: Glad Nolan is finally making a Boston film....? Works even better here with Aerosmith ref. Well done.

@Steven_Hyden @joevertonwindow I wasn't on the internet then, and I'm not a music critic, but "semi sarcasm" and "boss made me" merit a healthy dose of rotten-vegetable tossing. It's OK to be on the wrong side of history with something as low stakes as this, Steve...

@pityforyourself This guy's exegesis of Burroughs "Seven Souls" as key to seasons 6-7 of Sopranos is impressive: https://t.co/1tKK9ljxET

@Jaypotta Is this a C.S. Lewis quote?

@12_7_99_halleys When passion and discipline are confused for cocaine, you realize how rare both have become. Thoughts and prayers, etc..

@leorobsonwriter @tnyfrontrow Am on the verge of becoming a Hamrah fanboy: will read this. Pope's maxim remains helpful either way: “As men of breeding, sometimes men of wit, / T’ avoid great errors, must the less commit.”

[Best Movie Moments 🍿 @BestMovieMom]

The chaotic diaper heist in Raising Arizona (1987) was filmed with extremely fast tracking shots and wide-angle lenses to give the chase a cartoon-like energy, with much of the physical action performed by the actors themselves.

@SohrabAhmari @BarneysRubble0 Juicy click bait. Pairs nicely with the piece about Cormac abducting orphans in Mexico.

@DeadsoundApp Where did Lester write the original piece that stung Hunter out of non-sequitur oblivion?

[Denny Kinlaw @DfKinlaw]

@heystpress I like Michael Clune on the importance of judgment--distinct from polemic--which is a vital (yet increasingly obsolete) dimension of criticism lost from fear of elitism and reduction of aesthetic criteria to marketplace values.

[Denny Kinlaw @DfKinlaw]

@AmericanGwyn Similar experience in DFW archives--of which Cormac is a heavy presence (alongside Wittgenstein)

[Denny Kinlaw @DfKinlaw]

@xlorentzen Diagnosed as early as 1987 by DFW as "workshop hermeticism."
