One of the last great mad man filmmakers.

Werner Herzog's 25 filmmaking tips:

1. Always take the initiative.
2. There is nothing wrong with spending a night in jail if it means getting the shot you need.
3. Send out all your dogs and one might return with prey.
4. Never wallow in your troubles; despair must be kept private and brief.
5. Learn to live with your mistakes.
6. Expand your knowledge and understanding of music and literature, old and modern.
7. That roll of unexposed celluloid you have in your hand might be the last in existence, so do something impressive with it.
8. There is never an excuse not to finish a film.
9. Carry bolt cutters everywhere.
10. Thwart institutional cowardice.
11. Ask for forgiveness, not permission.
12. Take your fate into your own hands.
13. Learn to read the inner essence of a landscape.
14. Ignite the fire within and explore unknown territory.
15. Walk straight ahead, never detour.
16. Manoeuvre and mislead, but always deliver.
17. Don't be fearful of rejection.
18. Develop your own voice.
19. Day one is the point of no return.
20. A badge of honor is to fail a film theory class.
21. Chance is the lifeblood of cinema.
22. Guerrilla tactics are best.
23. Take revenge if need be.
24. Get used to the bear behind you.

Happy Father’s Day to my fellow members of the Dead Dad Club. Silver lining: at least we didn’t have to buy a card.

This only works in a fully functioning film ecosystem with steady middle and high budget productions.

If everyone is just trying to make the next Obsession for max profit while Union members can’t pay their rent and leave the business, than IATSE should do what it needs to.

Just found about Milk Mansion. Beside myself.

@Gabrus @theashleyray I watched it on a flight and was cackling the whole time. Very funny!

Real ones know

Christina Ricci has a boob tattoo??

[Eric @ebabygoose]

The director is not in charge of that.

[Millennial Excellence @millexcel]

Let's hope Kane paid the art director and set builders well. I know this kid has a history of short-changing his workers.

Ciao,

The hipster music discussion has devolved into 35 year olds trying to out-cool each other with what they listened to and frankly that’s the hipster spirit, right there

A rando challenged me on Crossplay. He started with “JISMS”. I responded with “SEXT”. It’s on.

[Audrey Kaufman @KaufmanAudrey]

Locals don’t think LA is evil, only transplants think LA is evil. Because they come here and they do evil shit, because they’re strivers, and then they’re like “it wasn’t me, it was the Santa Ana Winds”

[Geoff Wilt @geoffwilt]

will say this about the moronic SY discourse going around- Sonic Youth is a foundational band in my life & they opened up an entire universe for me as a kid & if someone says they don’t like SY I just assume I don’t have to think too much about the rest of their music opinions.

[Eric @ebabygoose]

It’s his day
