It's true! Springsteen and Dylan have biopics! Where is Cash's biopic? I mean yes, there is a very famous one and it won an Academy Award but nevertheless, my point stands, notwithstanding the fact that it does not, is what I'm trying to say.
This administration is a dull-minded, paranoid, gullible old man surrounded by twenty cranks, thousand-year-reich zealots, and single-issue lunatics, all with phones, running around saying, "Show him this! He'll like this! Make sure he sees this!"
This is accurate. "I will never change my mind about anything and will reject as false any information that might cause me to" is a core part of MAGA identity.
One good rule for a veteran writer: Break your own rules ruthlessly. I don't do profiles and rarely write about theater, so when T asked me to do a deep dive into the life & work of David Henry Hwang, naturally I said yes! Huge thanks to DHH for his time and openness. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/09/t...
When was the last time Trump was interviewed solo on-camera by a non-servile journalist? Because it's starting to feel like that may not happen again. The risk of him being publicly challenged about factual basic information--like, "Portland is not burning"--is too great for his handlers to permit.
I'm going with Hallowe'en, because the later films do every bad thing that a franchise can do: Reiterate the original, add unnecessary backstory, undercut the first film with new mythology, go backwards, leap forwards, retcon, cut all ties to the original, re-establish those ties...Burn 'em all.
He's so cognitively garbled that I can't guess what he means at the end, when he says freedom of speech "is always something I felt strongly about, but it never passed the courts."
At this point, it's important for Democratic politicians to raise questions about his brain function every single day.
That's a scorecard judgment--it's of more use to stockholders, executives, and industry journalists than to the general public.
Oh, we got some FURIOUS letters about that! Pre-internet, luckily for us.
Hats off to one of the most craven dolts ever to do it. variety.com/2025/music/n...
I always felt bad when we got an actor to do a concept-y cover and it didn't work. Here's one, also from the Waterworld summer, that did--thanks to a very game movie star who was up for doing a post-scandal print interview, and an excellent stunt baby!
When I was movie editor at EW, we came up with this idea for a Waterworld cover. We thought it was funny--he'd spent so much time shooting on water--and obv. Costner thought it was funny enough to play along. Readers and the industry HATED it and him--"He's spitting at Hollywood." You never know.
Lots of interesting/grisly financial detail in this Costner piece. But it's odd that Waterworld is always misremembered as a Heaven's Gate-sized disaster. It was a flop relative to cost, but it grossed $88M in the US in '95--it was the #12 movie of the year.

In memory, Waterworld and The Postman (1997) often get merged. But in reality Waterworld was the movie that made people say Costner was grandiose and difficult to work with; The Postman (which ran 3 hours and couldn't even gross $20M) was the movie that made the industry say, okay, he's done.

Well, the joke will be on them, because I don't know how to drive!
Found out this evening that rats are living in our car's engine and have chewed through all the wiring, how was your day?
They will insist that this an overstatement, that this isn't the same as APPROVING conversion therapy, that it's "not what the case is about." But if you are an adult with a functioning moral core, you cannot divorce your actions from their consequences. This will kill kids, period, the end.
