"Fanon was a political thinker, a revolutionary militant, & a psychiatrist,& all of these aspects of his life formed a coherent unity: dialectical, complementary, & enriching each other.After all, his was a project of combating alienation in all its forms" https://t.co/JySYPHXMan

me working under pressure :

[Variety @Variety]

George R.R. Martin doubles down on his issue with Hollywood adaptations.

"Everywhere you look, there are more screenwriters and producers eager to take great stories and ‘make them their own.’ It does not seem to matter whether the source material was written by Stan Lee, Charles Dickens, Ian Fleming, Roald Dahl, Ursula K. Le Guin, J.R.R. Tolkien, Mark Twain, Raymond Chandler, Jane Austen, or… well, anyone. No matter how major a writer it is, no matter how great the book, there always seems to be someone on hand who thinks he can do better, eager to take the story and ‘improve’ on it. ‘The book is the book, the film is the film,’ they will tell you, as if they were saying something profound. Then they make the story their own. They never make it better, though. Nine hundred ninety-nine times out of a thousand, they make it worse.”

Emily Blunt says algorithms "frustrate me" and "I hate that f*cking word."

"How can it be associated with art and content? How can we let it determine what will be successful and what will not?...I was in a three-hour film about a physicist, which had the the impact it had – the algorithms probably wouldn’t have grasped it. My hope is that ‘Oppenheimer’ and similar projects are not considered anomalies, that we stop translating creative experience into diagrams.”

Lea Seydoux says it's "easier" being an actress in Europe than in Hollywood.

“The industry in America, I find it harsh on women. It’s hard for women to age. I don’t want to be afraid not to be desirable or to lose my contract. In America it’s economic, and when it becomes a matter of making money you lose your freedom. I don’t feel comfortable with the fact that you have to tick all the boxes. Being a woman on screen is easier in Europe...In America you have to conform. I don’t want to adapt myself to the system, I want the system to adapt to me!”
