Wim Wenders explains why Jean Renoir's "The Rules of the Game" (1939) is one of his favourite movies:

"'The Rules of the Game' (1939) appears on many lists of the greatest films of all time, and Renoir is one of the great filmmakers. He's also the lead actor in his own movie. It's a film made before the Second World War that anticipates that war in an amazing way. It was another film that was a revelation when I saw it for the first time, and then I saw it again and again.

It played in a little neighborhood theater where I lived, and I saw it every day. I don't know how many times I have seen it, but it's one of the films I know by heart. For me, it's almost the ideal movie. It's very funny, fluid, and has an incredible range of characters. It also has the premonition that war is in the air. Nobody knew that a World War was coming, but he anticipated it, and it is a totally amazing film."

It's time! 🫐 My best blueberry muffins are one bowl, tall, almost equal parts berry and muffin, and have the crunchiest bronzed lid on top, perfect for lifting off in a satisfying shell and swiping with salted butter.

💦 Hidden NYC fact:

There are 2 hidden waterfalls in Midtown Manhattan.

📍 Greenacre Park (217 E. 51st St.)
📍 Paley Park (3 E. 53rd St.)

Both are free, peaceful, and just steps from the city’s busiest streets. One of NYC’s best-kept secrets. 🗽

I had occasion to catch up with @uche_blackstock, one of the nation’s leading authorities on health equity.

Following the murder of George Floyd, countless healthcare companies made investments in health equity.

Six years later, many of those investments have quietly vanished.

Health equity officers have were hired and laid off.

I asked Uche, “what happened?”

And “what could we have done differently to make the agenda more durable.

The official paper of being seven years old and still unable to make an upper case “Q” that’s worth a shit.

The students who are athletes that play fall sports are already starting to move back in. That's a commitment because they don't get that much of a summer break.

So, sometimes, I like to watch no commentary walking tours on YT of cities I want to visit.

This one in Mykonos, Greece is a fave.

It begins in an alley facing the ocean with one of the most breathtaking views. And that quiet moment alone before getting to the bazaar 🤌🏾

Hospital chaplain here. 8% of elders survive the initial cardiac arrest and CPR. Of those patients 4% make it out of the hospital and most need lifelong help and care. These are basic figures and why we are brutally honest with patients and patients families about code status.

No woman should even enter into a marital contract without having full access to all accounts and be jointly named on them, especially if she intends to be a homemaker.

That is just rule one.

Homemakers who are financially provided for should be putting away cash from day one to avoid these hypothetical scenarios. If it all works out, use the cash to take a world cruise on your 50th wedding anniversary or whatever. You can be at homemaker. You don't have to be dumb.

My female children are receiving inheritances that are exempt from marital assets for this very reason.

A new @KFF poll on vaccine myths reminded me that misinformation is not only about facts. It’s also about trust.

Many people aren’t fully bought into vaccine myths. They are uncertain, overwhelmed, and trying to make sense of conflicting information.

[Cinema Tweets @CinemaTweets1]

Wild Horse Nine, which is the first film directed by Martin McDonagh since he directed The Banshees of Inisherin, a film I consider to be on the shortlist for one of the decade’s best. Adding to my anticipation is Sam Rockwell. Rockwell leads an excellent cast that includes John Malkovich & Parker Posey. November 6th.
