Join moi on October 16 for my lecture on New French Extremity at the @RevueCinema. From its arthouse beginnings to its new form, we'll look at the movement as a whole and attempt to make sense of it.

@MickBrooks666 yup - realized I misspoke in that moment, though she was a big part wanting to join the EU movement in the 1970s.

[Alex VVest @ScareAlex]

We’ll examine how 28 Days Later (2002) and Kill List (2011) predicted the vote and how His House (2020) and Men (2022) dealt with the UK leaving the EU.

We still don't fully get why @tvo locked $17 𝒎𝒊𝒍𝒍𝒊𝒐𝒏 into investments just before it started negotiating with us. It's too bad VP of finance Jeff Hogan chose to leave TVO a day after we publicly revealed this. It would be good to have an experienced VP on hand to explain.

If I were a billionaire I would
• end world hunger
• ensure everyone has healthcare
• protect the environment
• pay @WainBright all the money for rights to her *stunning* memoir so @carriecoon (who I would also pay all the money to) could play her in either a miniseries/film
