While Paint Drying isn’t technically something I “watched,” it felt like the right way to acknowledge the passing of Bud Cort, who starred in one of my all-time favorite films, Harold & Maude.

I just heard your interview on Front Row Classics where you touched on this...good to know! I'll need to check out Eyman's bio on L.B.!
Also, if you find yourself in L.A. and want to come see your Great-Uncle's offices, just let me know!

As I currently work in the outer office of Louis B. Mayer, I was especially drawn to Kenneth Turan’s The Whole Equation. It’s a fascinating look at two Hollywood titans whose partnership—and rivalry—helped shape the studio system.

Oh man, this one hurts!

Harold & Maude has always been one of my favorite films — it’s even in my Top 4 on Letterboxd.

Harold & Maude… together again.

One minute I’m watching “I Flunked, But…”, a 1930 film by legendary Japanese director Yasujirō Ozu—and the next minute my brain apparates straight to Harry Potter.
