Really excited to have an article on Maggie Smith in the latest issue of @70s_cinema! (on a side note, just in case, I've set up a Mastodon account: @[email protected])
Knowing what we went through season one, and now they’re releasing season TWO???? Bitch this first episode is too much!!!!!!!!!! and I want to unsubscribe IMMEDIATELY. 😭
David Lynch, our beloved dad, was a guiding light of creativity, love, and peace. On Monday, January 20th—what would have been his 79th birthday—we invite you all to join us in a worldwide group meditation at 12:00pm NOON PST for 10 minutes.
Let us come together, wherever we are, to honor his legacy by spreading peace and love across the world. Please take this time to meditate, reflect, and send positivity into the universe.
Thank you for being part of this celebration of his life.
Love,
Jennifer, Austin, Riley and Lula Lynch
@upuntil_dawn Oh, the massive regret about not ordering one of these is about to get worse isn't it? Favorite Dawn look from Drag Race and yet ignored all the warnings about these not going to be available to purchase later
My best gal, Carole Lombard, died 83 years ago today. I wrote this essay a few years ago to celebrate her extraordinary life and career. Sharing it again here on this solemn anniversary: https://t.co/89HoD7GyWa
"Dance your cares away" isn't always easy but new Fraggle Rock content helps. @shanito and @max_sarin have a Fraggle Rock story in the first issue of @boomstudios' anthology series, JIM HENSON PRESENTS, and I got to ask them some questions for Comicon:

The more Esther Williams movies on Blu-ray, the better — plus, BATHING BEAUTY comes with an archival interview with WIlliams that's fantastic [thanks to @WarnerArchive for the review copy]
.@ziggystarlog dives into 'Bathing Beauty', the first of Esther Williams' aqua-ballet films. Will it hold up?

In honor of David Bowie's birthday (which would've been tomorrow), here are some thoughts on @mvdentgroup's Blu-ray release of THE LINGUINI INCIDENT (which was formerly only available as an over-priced DVD, plus MVD's Blu-ray is the director's cut):

George Cukor fans couldn't ask for a more loverly book on the director and author, Joseph McBride, couldn't have been more generous with his time in the following interview [see below] ~ McBride's book, GEORGE CUKOR'S PEOPLE, is available from @ColumbiaUP#ClassicFilmReading

As a Johnny Cash fan, not seeing DOOR-TO-DOOR MANIAC wasn't an option but whether it's the most impactful film debut for the country singer is another matter. Kudos to @Film__Masters for continuing to make subtitles a priority on their Blu-rays. FULL REVIEW BELOW:
@DavidWalker1201 @marcuskwame @PlinaGanucheau @jrome58 @SpaceCassio 4) BECOMING WHO WE ARE: REAL STORIES ABOUT GROWING UP TRANS (@HNewlevant#SammyLisel) is an amazing anthology for middle grade readers where nine trans people share what it was like for them to transition
All of the books on the list are incredible but to highlight the four that I'm biased about: 1) BIG JIM AND THE WHITE BOY (@DavidWalker1201 @marcuskwame) shows the difference perspective can make in having Jim tell his side of what happened in Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn
The fourth and final day of Comicon's Best of 2024 Awards begins with the Most Progressive Comics comics of the year.

@DavidWalker1201 @marcuskwame @PlinaGanucheau 3) NAVIGATING WITH YOU (@jrome58 @SpaceCassio) is a queer love story. One of the main characters has CP while another is dealing with PTSD. These are lived experiences that get rarely, if ever, represented. It's truly a master work.
