“Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen.” - Robert Bresson
- RIP to one of the few filmmakers who legitimately lived up to the term visionary.
- This seems like a big deal...
- A movie that takes place where you're from.
- Pretty wild how absolutely terrified the Democratic establishment is of Mamdani.
- Former President Bill Clinton is endorsing former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, his former HUD secretary, as the Democratic establishment tries to attempt to ensure Zohran Mamdani does not win the Democratic primary for NYC mayor. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/22/n...
- So nice of Funko Pop to honor my dad this Father's Day.
- (Back on Twitter, this was my annual Father's day message, but decided to mix it up here on Bluesky.)
- Relatable
- Best bobblehead ever
- Kept meaning to post this clip from one my favorite Val Kilmer performances. He was so underrated as a comic actor. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSZw...
- I struggled as a freelance editor for 15 years, finally giving it up when COVID ended my main dependable side hustle. Thankfully I was able to evolve and adapt, because as I've heard from freelancers who were better at it than I, it's only gotten worse out there www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
- ANORA wasn't my favorite film last year but it's great to see a small film made with a lot of passion and heart take home the big prize. LFG Sean Baker!
- (Also if you haven't seen THE FLORIDA PROJECT, it's even better than ANORA imho.)
- Great idea!
- Enjoyed crafting this Harrison Ford interview for @wsj.com. A good example of having challenging raw footage of a somewhat disengaged interview subject, and using the power of editing (and creative question re-working) to make it look like a fun and lively discussion. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJdO...
- 2019 was the last year that I worked as a freelance movie editor. Coincidence?
- Seeing THE BRUTALIST on this inauguration day seems fitting somehow.
- I remain convinced that David Lynch's Lumiere short 'Premonitions Following An Evil Deed' is a masterpiece in 58 seconds www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7EJ...
- This article succinctly boils down the reasons why I canceled Netflix 10 years ago. I have no desire to support their "casual viewing" business model.
- One of the best things I’ve read in a while. www.nplusonemag.com/issue-49/ess...
- Well in honor of the raft of new followers from the WSJ starter pack (hello!) here's one of my fav WSJ video pieces I've edited of late: the story of Solovair boots aka the 'real' Dr. Martens: youtu.be/lFQhJOohVt0?...
- Been waiting for someone to spell out this exceedingly likely take
- Best news of the past 2 weeks
- Via our parent company @globaltetrahedron.bsky.social CEO @brycetetraeder.bsky.social: theonion.com/heres-why-i-...
- In honor of my father, I'm spending today pretending like I don't exist.
- RIP to the icon Damo Suzuki. A huge inspiration.
- Show us the first photo you took in 2023.
- POOR THINGS is the best movie of the year IMHO. Maybe Lanthimos' best since DOGTOOTH. Emma Stone gives the performance of the 2020s. Highly recommended.
- Had fun working on this quick little interview with Martin Scorsese www.youtube.com/watch?v=56ZT...
- Incredible reporting from Channel 4 journalist Yousef Hammash on the ground in Gaza www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeuN...
- Woah my hometown El Segundo, CA won the Little League World Series! www.mlb.com/news/califor...
- Anyway thanks to the wonderful @elazic.bsky.social for the invite code. Seems like lots of people I enjoyed interacting with on Twitter have fully transitioned over here, so my hopes are up for this place.
- I just want a good cup of coffee
