A great piece about THAT scene in Mulholland Drive. Everything I’ve ever wanted to believe about what it was like to make. Just lovely. (And he cast actors by just chatting to them rather than a formal audition.) www.vulture.com/article/patr...

Not many comedians could pull off a routine about a bumpy flight with the cast of Eastenders, climbing out onto the ‘wing’ of the aircraft using an ironing board and a leaf blower. Then again, not many comedians are Harry Hill. Only one actually. Thank you Cornerhouse Surbiton and thank you Harry.

@jontolley.bsky.social Assume you’ve seen this. Well overdue praise. Banquet is the greatest (well one of them): www.ft.com/content/e1dc...

People posting all the terrible things that are happening. Reacting instead of acting. Sleepwalkers self-manipulated into compliance by accepting the status quo:"I've posted a meme on social media! There! I've done something!! Let's go get coffee" ("HAPPY 2015", 6ftx9ft, charcoal&graphite on paper)

@banquetrecords.com It’s official. You are one of the greatest in the world. Over to you, FT: www.ft.com/content/e1dc...

My feelings precisely in much better words:

One of the main reasons we founded Cinephilia & Beyond was because of David Lynch. A true inspiration and a unique, beautiful soul. Our hearts are broken. Rest in peace to one of cinema’s greatest artists.

Well, this was unexpected. Thanks so much to Justin Hawkins for devoting a chunk of his time to our music. What a lovely, lovely fella. www.youtube.com/watch?v=99of...

Following these posts, there has been even more silence. It is clear that something is not right. In the 10-12 years of C&B history, we have not written a single wrong letter. We've held on and have an impeccable reputation. We invite everyone to fight for us and support us!

In case you don’t know it, this is singularly the best film website out there. Great big meaty pieces about great films. Like the New Yorker of film. Interviews, archive, screenplays, the lot. So much work goes into what they produce. Go on. Give them some cash. The world needs things like this.
