That's why they have been so ruthlessly exterminated. No profit.

I hope people are getting the message that billionaire oligarchs will always actively side with fascists and will violate the most sacred principals of their country to make a buck. They are not on our side in any way.

Halloween is on Thursday! Here are some older movies you might not have seen. Time to cross them off your list - they are all all 100% amazing. I'll list the movies by year if you just want to grab some titles. A one-line summary of what makes each awesome IMHO will follow.

Flamboyant conservative underground film auteur Paul Morrissey has died at 86. I only met him once at an Xmas party at his fancy Upper East Side apt. When I was introduced to him as "Bruce LaBruce," he replied gamely, "Bruce LaBruce. Why not?", turned on his heel & sashayed away!

I’ve been all over the country in the last month. And I get asked the same question, over and over again: “I disagree with Kamala’s position on the war in Gaza. How can I vote for her?” Here is my answer:

RIP to one of my biggest screen crushes, the wonderful Teri Garr

Teri Garr has developed a shorthand style of comedy that's all her own, and the audience has such strong empathy with her that she can get her flighty, pent-up character across to us in a few terse movements and phrases. (1982)

A sad day. RIP to the great Teri Garr. Three favourite performances, in three of my favourite movies: Young Frankenstein, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and After Hours.

Oh, she was something!

One of a kind. Guess I'll be watching Young Frankenstein this week in her honor. RIP 🙏

[AFTER HOURS] Teri Garr has a glittering electricity; she plays this kind of role better than anyone else ever has—she makes the waitress's nuthead scariness pretty damn scary. (1985)

Mel Brooks commentary during Young Frankenstein is lovely for many reasons, but especially for how much he beams every time Teri Garr shows up
