I used to stare at his art on the covers of videotapes in the library, imagining the adventures inside and debating how to spend my precious pound. Drew Struzan captured the magic of cinema like no one else. His posters didn’t just sell films, they embodied them. A giant of movie art has left us.

In more positive posts, myself and my podcast wife @willcollins.bsky.social had a good time talking about our favourite Robert Redford films for the next episode of Screen, Play out on Monday. Podcasting with him keeps me sane. I hope you'll give it a listen. linktr.ee/screenplaypod
We have a new podcast! If you liked The Best Bits, you’ll love SCREEN, PLAY. It’s still Kevin and me, still talking movies, still trying to make each other laugh.
And if you enjoy it, a rating or review would mean the world (and help other lovely film nerds like you find us).
We are gently easing back into podcasting and uploading video episodes to our Patreon. A brand new show from us should be arriving in June, but for now, we’re testing the waters with bonus shows where you can marvel at our big Irish heads. www.patreon.com/c/screenplay...
The final episode of The Best Bits is a big hug to the podcast that deepened my love for cinema and made me cherish it even more. What a journey it has been... However, all good things...
Brand new episode out now! With some big news about the podcast for our upcoming 75th ep near the end. Have a listen and if you can, we’d love a share!
I've abandoned all other social media but still keep my accounts for rare professional announcements. Like AI, you can sense the AI slop at a glance. So, it's reassuring that my Bluesky feed evokes a happier time, when all we had to worry about was a few wars and total financial catastrophe.
That lasted all of five minutes. #TheTraitors
David Lynch was a dream master. I cannot recommend his books, ROOM TO DREAM and CATCHING THE BIG FISH, highly enough. His films speak for themselves. It's about time I restarted my Twin Peaks marathon.
UPDATED: It’s out NOW!
A lovely chat with @kevinlehane.com about #TheDamnedMovie that goes deep on craft and the writing process in general.
ON THE PLUS SIDE 💪🏼 …
This is my local community hall, Leghowney Hall, in full flow for its Xmas market. When the world feels like it's going to hell on a handbasket, sharing breakfast while listening to Bing Crosby croon White Christmas makes everything feel alright.

The Day the Earth Blew Up is delightful, zany fun. It's Looney Toones meets Invasion of the Body Snatchers via Roger Rabbit. My 10-year-old declared it one of the best films he’s ever seen. More of these plead WB. Maybe Coyote v. Acme, eh? Anyways, Bravo to all the creators!
Our podcast cousins! Give them a follow.

The passing of Jon Kenny is very sad news. I was lucky enough to work with him on Song of the Sea and Wolfwalkers. Everyone knew he was a fantastic comedian, musican and actor (he was execptional as the Bull McCabe on stage); he was also a gentleman, a sweet man and will be greatly missed. RIP Jon
Since Conan is hosting the Oscars, could Saoirse and Cillian win to make it the greenest Oscars in a long time? I hope so.
