@gnosis Gives me a few weeks to work on my impression!

[Wayne Staats @WayneStaats]

@allamaraine4 yesss. Already know it’ll be worth the wait

[Wayne Staats @WayneStaats]

@allamaraine4 I haven’t seen this! Moving it to the top of my list — seems like EXACTLY my thing.

[Wayne Staats @WayneStaats]

Sounds right that the first day of my first #TCMFF started with a Kay (Francis) and ended with a Kay (Kendall).

[Wayne Staats @WayneStaats]

@offthemarktweet a matchup for the ages!

[Wayne Staats @WayneStaats]

@allamaraine4 oh my god

[Wayne Staats @WayneStaats]

@allamaraine4 I was wondering about that! It was unexpected, but maybe helped the vibe…And with you on the big screen aspect. There is so much going on. I know I missed some gags because of laughter at something I didn’t notice.

I’ve already lost count how many times I’ve watched this. Fonda’s pause is a giveaway — she’s letting history have a moment.

[The Academy @TheAcademy]
