Nancy Meyers is looking back at her decades of collaborations with Diane Keaton and noting that the “past 48 hours have not been easy” since the actress died:

"I always felt she really got me so writing for her made me better because I felt so secure in her hands." More here: bit.ly/4obAiae

Baby Boom, Crimes of the Heart, Marvin’s Room, Father of the Bride, First Wives Club were all movies from my childhood. She was one of my favorite comfort watches. I usually watch the Family Stone at Christmas but idk I’ll be able to this year. 🥺

Diane Keaton 😭😭😭

If you voted for him, you've done this.

I want to spend a morning collecting acorns.

I'm sure it will be in the 80s here soon so I'm taking what I can get.

Dare I say it feels a little like fall today

every corporate decision comes down to money and clearly the economics for abc/disney outweighed the threats from the fascist government

This mf’er is a hugely unpopular lame duck and people and institutions with actual power are out here acting, for eight months straight, like he’s some goddam immortal emperor. Fuck that noise.

it is really important for news outlets to be clear (unlike the nyt here) that Kimmel was suspended not because of some grassroots backlash but because ABC caved to threats from the head of the FCC

I've long since abandoned any real hope of billionaires seriously funding a real progressive media outlet or platform but the other way you could launch such a thing is with some charismatic talent with pre-existing audience and (presumably) the financial independence to take risks. Just fwiw.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

ah, well

goodbye freedom of speech. it was fun while it lasted.

Update: It's not just Nexstar

Robert Redford was my favorite, it’s hard to process that he is gone. His performances made more movies beloved to me than anyone else, I’d take The Sting over any other film for flawless perfection. We don’t expect famous people to also be good people but he was. He belongs to the ages

Understood. I can't yet accept that he's gone.

Robert Redford (1936-2025) 🤍

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

He was a great actor and so much more.
So sad to lose a tireless champion for the environment.
R.I.P. Robert Redford.

my favorite robert redford film is sneakers (1992), which a friend introduced me to a few years back

but i’m also partial to indecent proposal, barefoot in the park (1967), three days of the condor (1975), spy game (2001), and his directed features ordinary people (1980) & quiz show (1994)
