I was recently interviewed by @Authorlink . I've been enriched and inspired by many diverse creative voices. Everyone from @wself and Paul Auster to @WhitStillman, @AlbertBrooks and Woody Allen. #writingtips #authors #interviews #books https://t.co/95hO4vwfme

@WhitStillman I set my recorder for this. I always forget if I saw The Drowning Pool or Harper, but this week I'll makes sure to see both.

[Dean Monti @Monti57]

@AlbertBrooks That's it. I'm changing my last name to Brooks. Happy birthday Mel -- and hello Albert from your fake son.

@Bisma7465 Is this really you, @Bisma7465 > if not, who is this?

[Whit Stillman @WhitStillman]

Maybe the smartest guy in movies.

[Dean Monti @Monti57]

@WhitStillman Need more people like him.

[Dean Monti @Monti57]

@Variety If you know the true story regarding his innocence, you don't have to have any qualms about artist vs person. He's a genius and he's innocent.

[Dean Monti @Monti57]

All dramatic films will have some "inaccuracies" to present an engaging story. But that's art. Tarantino's obviously skewed histories are presenting an artistic interpretation. Drama is "what if..?" -- not "what happened?" Film is art, not accuracy. :-) #film #art

[DepressedBergman @DannyDrinksWine]

Name some movies which are historically inaccurate.

Dowagers don't faint as often as they once did.

[Whit Stillman @WhitStillman]

Because we have twitter for that.

I saw it the week in a theater the week it was released and loved it. I like Greta Gerwig, but I'm more of a Whit Stillman completist.

[annie allen @annie_either_or]

it’s fun that perhaps the most underrated american filmmaker in modern memory (whit stillman) made perhaps the best comedy in recent memory (damsels in distress) and no one outside of greta gerwig completists watch it. and by fun i mean sad.

[Dean Monti @Monti57]

@jennybizh @itsJeffTiedrich It is still bothering me. I mean, who in the world can (cryptically yet overtly) *discourage* voting and still win. I don't think even Trump can do that without "assistance."

[Dean Monti @Monti57]

@ADeCanniere Just saw this shoutout -- much appreciated!

[Carl Bernstein @carlbernstein]

Statement on Washington Post’s refusal to endorse presidential candidate.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

That speech Michelle Obama just gave was one of the best of this entire cycle. She is unbelievable. Here’s how she brought it home.

[Dean Monti @Monti57]

@SamBuntz Must listen!

[Dean Monti @Monti57]

@DannyDrinksWine I'd love to see this film used in business classes to teach management and problem solving. Each samurai contributes to the "project" in a significant way.

#MarcellusWilliams faces execution on 9/24 for a crime that DNA proves he didn’t commit. Join me, @innocence, and @the_mip in taking action to prevent this irreversible injustice. #SaveMarcellus https://t.co/0jKiuhQwqU

[Dean Monti @Monti57]

@WhitStillman @Sony Really looking forward to this.

[Dean Monti @Monti57]

If I've learned anything -- you don't f**k with cats or Taylor Swift.
