Very sad news. Ann was a critic for the Austin American Statesman back in the mid 90s. Didn’t know her well but saw her at many film events. Followed her career since as a big fan.

Ann Hornaday, who championed the craft of filmmaking and helped readers understand the enduring magic and occasional disappointment of movies as The Post’s longtime chief film critic, died Oct. 18 at her home in Baltimore. She was 66.

Loved Greene’s performance in Lodge Kerrigan’s amazing debut Clean Shaven. RIP

Peter Greene, a character actor who made a career out of playing villains, including in “Pulp Fiction,” “The Mask” and dozens of other films and TV shows, has died. He was 60.

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

RIP to the great Udo Kier. In the early 90s, Udo hired me to edit his showreel. He was funny, generous and kind. Told many stories about his films with Paul Morrissey and Warhol. Showed me all the pages of Madonna's sex book he was in. There's nobody like him.

I realize that I don’t have that many followers but you should all see “One Battle After Another” soon. Can’t stop thinking about it and can’t wait to watch it again. It’s the kind of film that reminds me why I love films. 5 stars.

I would encourage everyone to see this perfect film on the big screen. Especially with this new gorgeous transfer.

A friend of mine worked on a reality show called "Chained to ODB", where a contestant had to be chained/handcuffed to Old Dirty Bastard for a day to win cash. It never aired. I can't for the life of me think of a world that doesn't want to see this.

“Boom goes the dynamite.” 20-years ago today. 19 year old Ball State University journalism student Brian Collins filling in for the regular campus sportscaster — when the teleprompter suddenly stops working (2005)…
