Birthday shout-out to Pedro Martinez born October 25, 1971. The Baseball Hall-of-Famer was a 3x Cy Young winner (twice with the #RedSox) and was on the 2004 Boston World Series winner. His number 45 was retired by Boston. The most dominant right-handed pitcher of his era.
.@A24's Tony is one of the most underrated flicks of the year. I loved Dominic Sessa opposite Paul Giamatti and Da'Vine Joy Randolph in The Holdovers, but he might be even better as Anthony Bourdain. A24 needs to push Antonio Banderas for Best Supporting Actor as well.
Dominic Sessa was born October 25, 2002. He's from Jersey, but has been in 2 quintessential New England films. He starred opposite Paul Giamatti in The Holdovers (seen here candlepin bowling) and as Anthony Bourdain in Tony, a look at Bourdain's early cooking career on Cape Cod.
Today is National Boston Cream Pie Day! Created in 1856 by a French chef at the Parker House Hotel (now the Omni Parker House) in Boston, it's a cake and not a pie. It also makes for a great donut so swing by @KanesDonuts or your favorite shop today! #NationalBostonCreamPieDay
Birthday shoutout to Christopher Lloyd (@DocBrownLloyd) born October 22, 1938 in Stamford, Connecticut. He's been in classics like Back to the Future, Clue, Taxi, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, and Who Framed Roger Rabbit? He's also brilliant in Nobody/Nobody 2!
Sports are so engrained into Boston lives that #MattDamon & #BenAffleck made #RobinWilliams' character in Good Will Hunting meet his wife when Pudge hits his homer in the #WorldSeries. An iconic #RedSox moment. https://t.co/Binnvl5GLc
October 21, 1975, Carlton Fisk hits his legendary World Series homer waving it fair over Fenway Park's Green Monster. The #RedSox win game 6 in extras because of Pudge's dinger. #OTD#MLB#WorldSeries📷
October 21, 1797, the USS Constitution, also known as Old Ironsides, is first launched. She was built at Edmund Hartt's shipyard in the North End of Boston, Mass. She is usually berthed at Pier 1 of the former Charlestown Navy Yard at one end of Boston's Freedom Trail today. #OTD
@JonFour I'm not familiar with its lead, the director and had super low expectations and walked out totally digging it. It will make Cronenberg fans happy.
Holy crap, #ClayfaceMovie might be the surprise of 2026. A body horror fan's wet dream, it will have you squirming in your seat. See it with a crowd and on an empty stomach.
October 20, 1989, Pretty Hate Machine, the debut studio album by Nine Inch Nails was released. It was promoted with the singles "Down in It", "Head Like a Hole", and "Sin" and was later certified triple-platinum by RIAA. #TrentReznor turned into an Oscar winning movie scorer.
@TeddyPeppers78@ThatKevinSmith Mine is a little out of pocket because when you think Black & White you don't think of the past 30 plus years. I'd even add Nebraska into that mix from ten years ago or whenever that was. Bruce Dern and Will Forte are spectacular in that.
