Laying off this man… I don’t know how you could fucking sleep at night tbh. This is the best writer, the nicest man, a legend.

I haven’t pulled those out yet. But I will soon. 😭

Fucking hell, Matt. I’m so sorry. I will spread the word about the bookstore for sure.

Also, we’d love to have you do a lecture or class at CineJourneys. Imogen Sara Smith and Ty Burr have done them with us and did really well.

Finally started The Studio and fucking hell why did Catherine O’Hara have to die
