The annual Oscars trivia was different this year, but thru the magic of Google Hangouts and Zoom, we all found a way to gracefully gather together and lose. HOWEVER, we were awarded Best Team Name (All About Eve the Cow) and would be remiss if we let that go unacknowledged. – at Queens, NY

Before MUDBOUND or BESSIE, or this year's THE LAST THING HE WANTED, there was PARIAH. Dee Rees' feature debut participated in the 2010 Narrative Lab, alongside Andrew Dosunmu's RESTLESS CITY, Victoria Mahoney’s YELLING TO THE SKY, and more.

There are a lot more important things happening today, but let us not forget that today, apparently, is also Kelly Reichardt's birthday. Here is a gem from an interview back in 2008: nytimes.com/2008/11/30/magaz… FIRST COW out this Friday. Happy Kelly Reichardt Week.

I'm starting to wonder if someone came up with the Oscars way back when just to put an end to the pre-show.

R.I.P. Richard Rodney Bennett. His score for John Schlesinger's FAR FROM THE MADDING CROWD is a stunner -- as is the film.

Composing a tweet mimics the brain-activity of actual work & is thus highly addictive without being highly productive.
