I'm a writer and lifelong film fan. I love movies from all eras and all parts of the world. THE MAN FROM BELIZE is my first novel.

Recently completed the screenplay adaptation of the novel THE MAN FROM BELIZE. So exciting and satisfying to see everything coming together and moving forward...

@WilliamFriedkin Two of the consummate artists of world cinema. Masters of their craft without a doubt.

@DirRobSavage @WilliamFriedkin The beauty of Friedkin's SORCERER lies in it's masterful ending. In its suspended state of human ambiguity. Is Scheider going to simply be taken back home to answer to his masters? Or will he just be quickly eliminated and disposed of in the derelict bar? I love NOT knowing.

@erikaeleniak Happy Easter, Erika! Have a blessed and beautiful day!

[steven kobrin @StevenKobrin]

@erikaeleniak I just watched Otto Preminger's great film THE CARDINAL. I wasn't surprised that Romy Schneider stole the film because she is consistently brilliant in everything, but I noticed that her striking resemblance to Erika Eleniak is positively uncanny! Simply stunning.

William Friedkin's wonderful film THE BIRTHDAY PARTY just gets better with repeated viewings. Harold Pinter's terse script is loaded with deep subtext and wry, subtle comedy.The picture looks and sounds terrific on Bluray. I recommend it very highly.

My work on the next novel is coming along quite nicely. This promises to be something COMPLETELY different than THE MAN FROM BELIZE.

[steven kobrin @StevenKobrin]

@WilliamFriedkin It would be simply wonderful if there was at least one Friedkin film available as part of the CRITERION COLLECTION on bluray. My vote is for the immensely underrated BUG. This bold, daring masterwork absolutely deserves a Criterion release. Without a doubt...

[steven kobrin @StevenKobrin]

The follow up book to THE MAN FROM BELIZE is moving in a great new direction. Something new will be coming soon in 2018...

[steven kobrin @StevenKobrin]

Recently saw the 4 film SISSI COLLECTION on DVD with the magnificent ROMY SCHNEIDER. I highly recommend these movies. They are stunning.

ATOMIC BLONDE is my favorite picture so far of 2017. Kudos to screenwriter Kurt Johnstad and director David Leitch for crafting such a film.

[steven kobrin @StevenKobrin]

Jeanne Moreau was a singular treasure of world cinema. Her legacy is absolutely immense. Truly one of the greatest of all time.

[steven kobrin @StevenKobrin]

The follow up book to THE MAN FROM BELIZE is halfway complete! My thanks to everyone's continued support! New book will be out SUMMER 2017!!

[steven kobrin @StevenKobrin]

William Friedkin's TO LIVE AND DIE IN L.A. is an undisputed masterpiece. Just revisited the picture a few days ago. It gets better with age.

[steven kobrin @StevenKobrin]
