I wanted to express the love and respect felt for Cassandra in this household send condolences to her family and friends.

I was very saddened to read of the passing of Cassandra Wilson.

Her voice was a wonder of tone and the deepest feeling. Her singing could embrace songs by Son House, Kurt Weill, Cyndi Lauper, Tom Jobim or Van Morrison with the same beauty and curiosity.

Ten years ago, I discovered a 700-strong list on @MUBI entitled ‘Edgar Wright’s Favorite Movies’, which came as something of a surprise, as I hadn’t written it. Though the American spelling of ‘favourite’ was a clue.
The list had been created by Sam DiSalle, so I reached out to ask how he had compiled it. He explained that it included every film I had ever said I liked in interviews, articles and polls. I asked if I could edit it and, over the next few months, after much addition and subtraction, gave him enough further suggestions to bring the grand total up to a round 1,000 films.
Every now and then I update it and thought I would do so ten years on. It is a very personal and entirely subjective selection of favourites from more than 100 years of cinema. Some people get extremely riled up about films they perceive to be ‘missing’, so please be warned: any comments along the lines of “What, no…?” will be deleted. It’s only one person’s list, and the great news is you can absolutely make your own. In fact, I encourage you to!
I enjoy keeping the list fluid for my own pleasure, amusement and reference. I’m sharing a recently updated version in the hope that you’ll have fun poring over it and diving into some films you haven’t seen, or perhaps haven’t even heard of. I should also apologise to my friends at @1000filmsblog for adding and removing titles. I really don’t mean to increase your workload! Anything that has ever appeared on the list remains valid; I simply like to cycle films in and out according to rewatches and new discoveries.
And, of course, enormous thanks to Sam DiSalle for helping me put it all together and maintain it over the years. Links to his MUBI and @letterboxd versions of the list are below. Film-watching is a lifetime pursuit, and there are still so many others out there for me to see. I hope these two lists are a great place to for you to start. Please give my regards to your eyeballs!

Holy shit, Tyler O'Neill.

An incredible throw to keep this game tied.

Two-time Gold Glove throw right there.

[TCM @tcm]

We say goodbye to our founder, the visionary Ted Turner. Ted’s love of classic films inspired him to create a channel dedicated to preserving them. He considered TCM one of his greatest accomplishments.

His passion continues to inspire us all as we work to fulfill his mission.

Kash Patel’s colleagues are alarmed by what they say is erratic behavior and excessive drinking, Sarah Fitzpatrick reports. More than two dozen people she spoke with described his management failures and conduct that could harm national security. https://t.co/3SIbRRogBh

[Decoding Fox News @DecodingFoxNews]

Greg Gutfeld claimed that Trump won the 2020 election. He then demanded that Jessica Tarlov explain court cases that proved Trump didn't win in 30 seconds. I provide examples directly from the $787.5 million defamation settlement between Fox News and Dominion Voting Systems.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

What the Artemis II astronauts did over the last 10 days was a testament to their bravery. And the fact that they traveled farther from Earth than anyone ever has, re-entered our atmosphere at more than 24,000 mph, and splashed down safely was a testament to human ingenuity. Thanks to everyone at @NASA for making this mission possible, and for taking us along for the ride.

please get a library card even if you won’t use it because cities will look at library statistics and use that to decide to keep libraries open and properly funded
