Wrote about Juror No 2 and the legal thriller...

Guillermo del Toro has doubled down on his love for Clint Eastwood's JUROR #2 and how Warner Bros. dumped it: "If WB can see what they have in their hands: a rare late great movie by a treasured American Icon - God, they should ride this all the way to the moon. So good."

Just got an email from the Writers Union of Canada (TWUC) expressing cautious optimism about the AI licensing market, and all I could do was think of Ursula K. Le Guin’s warning in 2014 not to let “literature get sold down the river.”

Northern Nights, edited by Michael Kelly, has some great stories in it. Especially liked "Sandstone" by Silvia Moreno-Garcia and "Every Friday" by Naben Ruthnum.

The paperback version of A Lonesome Place for Dying comes out December 10th. bookshop.org/p/books/a-lone…

Great read. You should read it.

Criterion, Kino, somebody needs to put out Face, the Antonia Bird heist film starring Robert Carlyle and Ray Winstone. Severely underrated crime film that's impossible to find.

Karla's Choice by Nick Harkaway is a pretty convincing Smiley.

If your Best of the Year book list has little to no genre fiction in the "Canadian" section, and little to no Canadians in the genre section, just going to assume it doesn't count.

NOIRVEMBER SUNDAYS 🖤 Tune into Criterion Channel this Sunday (11/24) for our final live #Noirvember double feature — pairing two California-set pulp classics from late in the genre’s heyday: Blake Edwards's EXPERIMENT IN TERROR (1962) and Samuel Fuller's THE CRIMSON KIMONO

Fantastic read. Highly recommend. This man can write.

British Library's Tales of the Weird anthologies are gorgeous and well edited. I wish I owned all of them.

The Five by Hallie Rubenhold is great, less true crime than a biography of Nicholls, Chapman, Stride, Eddowes, and Kelly, addressing how mischaracterized the victims were by the authorities of the time.
