Writer/Director & Actor 🕊

[The Hollywood Reporter @THR]

'Blue Heron' is the most acclaimed film of 2026, and director Sophy Romvari says its existence can be credited to grants provided by the Canadian government at both the script and production stages.

“I really did make exactly the movie I wanted to make.... When I started making work in Canada, I was not aware of the privilege of living in a country that has access to arts funding. The version of this film that I would’ve made within the American system would be very, very different — and I don’t know if that one would’ve gotten distribution.” https://t.co/3IJQEP8Mfn

NEW: @Telefilm_Canada announces $14.4M investment in 27 "low-budget" English-market projects, including new films from Thom Fitzgerald, Nancy Urich, Sasha Lee Henry, William Woods and Brad Deane & Lina Rodriguez.

We are deeply saddened by the loss of pop star and protest singer Sinéad O’Connor 🕊️

Our thoughts are with her loved ones at this time 🤍

More than anything, it reflects a cynical culture of late capitalist greed run amok, fueled by tech co's & multi-national corporations run by analytics consultants trying to feed people low-cost toxic slop in the guise of "content." Solidarity to any and all fighting against it.

[Jeff Weiss @Passionweiss]

Between the massive media layoffs, the looming bankruptcy of Vice, the studios forcing the writers into a strike & the rise of A.I. there's been a grotesque devaluation of imagination & creativity – during a time where it feels like people are more desperate for it than ever.

Do writers ALWAYS marry people who have no interest in writing or reading whatsoever or am I imagining it?
