TRUMP [getting serious 25 minutes into interview]: Last year my friend Ghislane Maxwell’s boyfriend died. He fucking died.
Trump: I wish Ghislaine Maxwell well. @jonathanvswan: She’s a child sex trafficker. Trump: Big deal... I do, I wish her well.
yes absolutely!! but only if you’re ugly
Is it weird/pathetic to go see a movie by yourself
i think QT's fetishism with us actually helps him most with jackie brown lol. he wanted to be us and part of our community so bad, and goddamn did he understand the job of framing pam grier as the most beautiful woman ever

Incredibly honoured to have been involved as a production consultant on Silent Friend, the upcoming feature by the brilliant Ildikó Enyedi—premiering at the Venice Film Festival later this summer, starring Léa Seydoux and Tony Leung Chiu-wai.
first watch everyone appreciates Jackie Brown, but you hit a certain age, and it suddenly skyrockets to the top of your QT list

No-brainer, uh-doy choice for one of the best tracks of all time. Final couplet always gets me, but more to the point, people *do* think you’re insane if you’re frowning all the time! youtu.be/BOTIIw76qiE?si…

Putting Pam at the center of this film isn’t just homage & recognition for a genre Tarantino loves, it’s an insistence—at the start—on passage of time, the fears, lessons, beauty that come w age. A different way for him to manipulate temporality in formalism. And deeply romantic.

I love embargo release day because everyone sounds like they're auditioning to be quoted on the poster.
A wonderful listen, but it also reminded me this is coming in October and it might be the quickest read of my life.
Had a great talk with Abel Ferrara about Turn in the Wound and the psychological scars of war. He also told me (joking? not?) about a Driller Killer sequel and convinced me to go to Russia. Listen: thefilmstage.com/emulsion-ep-12…
