“Where’s the Horizon?”

[Corey Atad @CoreyAtad]

public funding for Canadian films is woefully lacking and unevenly distributed, but advances are being made and they’re resulting in a new wave of films that stack up against anything the rest of the world is producing right now, and taking pride in that is a step toward more

Scott Frank: "The best writing is also subconscious where you don’t know that you’re doing it, and you don’t realize you’ve done it." #screenwriting

Jaws is not the greatest movie ever made. That's Titanic.

I love Jaws, but it trades romance for bromance. It's part of Spielberg's early "Handyman" movies - films about men fixing things, from Duel to Jaws to Close Encounters to Raiders. It's not until E.T. that Spielberg earns his sentimental manipulator reputation. Jaws is an incredible movie, an expertly crafted movie, but Titanic is a MOVIE. Spectacle, romance, man vs. nature, man vs. man, rich vs. poor, love, sacrifice, honor, old and young, life and death, women and children first - basically everything you could ever want out of Hollywood.

It's Jaws with the iceberg as the shark, but also Romeo and Juliet as a ship sinks. It's the ultimate Spielberg movie that Spielberg never made. Filmmakers love the craftsmanship and existential simplicity of Jaws, but deep down, the audience wants more than to beat a shark. They want Leo DiCaprio to tell them to live.

Martin Scorsese talking about the brilliance of PSYCHO.

MARTIN SCORSESE obsessing over the framing of a shot. One of the things that makes him a great filmmaker.

I genuinely do think it’s cool MacFarlane spent 6 months making this himself in his home

Quentin Tarantino: "My problem with most screenwriting is it is a blueprint. So when I’m writing, I’m not thinking about the viewer watching the movie. I’m thinking about the reader reading the script.” #screenwriting

[Spyder Dobrofsky @spyderdobro]

A great screenplay will still sell. Even in 2025. Even if times are harder than ever. Keep the faith. Keep writing.

GOODFELLAS was released 34 years ago this week. Acclaimed as one of the great Hollywood gangster movies and among the most popular films of director Martin Scorsese, the story of how it was made will have you carrying Henry Hill’s mother’s groceries all the way home…
