I’ve had the privilege of meeting 11 talented directors recently who are also new friends. They’re now all on my emotional speed dial, which is kind of a shame for them.

I’m extremely happy to say that my new screenplay THREE HOURS won the @chifilmfest Pitch competition at Industry Days! @hollihop and I pitched our hearts out, and man, everyone’s project was a film that has to be made. Go read all of the pitches and tell me I’m wrong.
Thanks to Anthony Kaufman, @keslowcamera @girlsgotta @jonah_zeiger @jc_farris_film and the whole CIFF ensemble.

Saturday, Satantangoday. It’s a masterpiece. But after hour five I wished my ticket came with a warm bowl of soup.

How did I only just meet this film? Thank you @boitty @rejano for straightening me out. #wwaeplaysthehits
This is the french author Yann Moix, 50, telling the world in public and on record that he could not possibly love a woman over 50, because they are invisible to him. Hey, my young sisters: let’s be allies to our older generation, and protectors of our future selves. Let’s not take this shit for one more New York second. Let’s uproot this bitter old tree, use him for kindling, and grow something way more delicious. His kind of attitude can only exist in a culture where first, women are only judged by their bodies and not their minds, and second, we are not raised to revere and desire older female bodies. This is not intrinsic, this is not scientific, this is not a foregone conclusion; it’s a social norm that needs our help to evolve. #feminism #yannmoix #ageism #wwaeplaysthehits
Straight Time. Holy Moly. Get it together, 21st century. @filmstruck @rejano @boitty @edmundflynn @danaho #wwaeplaysthehits
Standing inside of Iñárritu and Lubezki’s VR experience I think of my own ancestors leaving everything they had to come to America. We are a nation of immigrants. You can try to strike the phrase from every document; the truth remains for all to see. #carneyarena #daca #immigration #wwaeplaysthehits
Andrei Rublev! At the Aero! Last week... but seriously, the 24 hour news cycle has taken your expectations of immediate information way too far. #wwaeplaysthehits
Phew, a lot can change in one week. Penelope the RED Epic (see if you can spot her), is now unemployed like we all are. Last week she was out with me, shooting a spot for @gridspace with @jkeitel behind the camera, @jessweixler and @efrances03 in front of the camera, and @montayoo and @thepamrobison underneath the camera. Happy memories!

Fiona Shaw has had two words in this show so far and I can’t stop watching her.
