my first job in college closed at 10:00 PM. We played the classic rock station in the kitchen and realized for reasons we did not understand that "Carry On My Wayward Son" was played every evening at 10:00. When we heard those opening vocals everyone would shout "KANSAS" cause it was quitting time

“I’m going to make The Talented Mr Ripley as a French feature film” “Oh so you’ll be moving the setting to France so it’ll make sense why the American characters are speaking French?” “No” “So you’ll be making the main characters Frenchmen in Italy?” “Also no”

I can't say I approve of the volume of step-sibling pornography in the world, but rewatching Clueless (1995) I understand how it happened.

a thing I love about the Netflix Ripley show is how much Dakota Fanning is constantly emoting a feeling I can only call "just found out about unexpected charges on the bill"
