I remember Fiona Apple talking bout this and specially watching her frightened on that episode she did for Iconoclast with QT.

Still, he is the coolest.


yeah, i vaguely remember an anecdote about her being holed up with paul thomas anderson and tarantino in one of their screening rooms with a bunch of coke and it being like the fourth or fifth circle of hell. im inclined to agree w apple but unreformed jim wishes he could've been in the room to pound what he can only imagine was minimally-cut to pure cocaine

Harvey Keitel as Cus D'Amato seems perfect.

Sorry Mike, but I'm gonna watch the shit out of that.

The Don’t Worry Darling discourse accelerating at too rapid of a pace. Last 3 days have given us "men don’t cum in this movie", the bad acting Harry Styles clip, and now video footage of the director begging an abuser she claims to have fired to come back (and sorta throwing Florence Pugh, who very much appears to be distancing herself from this all, under the bus)

Movie is still FOUR weeks away. Runaway train!

It wasn't that bad. At least not Wiseau level.

Just read all about this. To the extent that I care — not much at all — I’m actually leaning towards the narrative that Olivia Wilde sucks.

Shia’s email is like 12-step 101, in that he appears willing to own his character defects where appropriate, but not to be a doormat:

Quote:
Olivia,

I hope this finds you inspired, purposeful, fulfilled & well. I pray every night that you & your family have health, happiness, & everything God would give me. No joke, every night before I sleep.

I have a little girl, Isabel; she is five months old and just beginning to develop the last half of her laugh; it’s AMAZING. Mia, my wife & I have found each other again & are journeying toward a healthy family with love and mutual respect.

I have embarked on a journey that feels redemptive & righteous (dirty word but fitting). I write to you now with 627 days of sobriety and a moral compass that never existed before my great humbling that was the last year and a quarter of my life. I reached out to you a few months ago to make amends; & I still pray one day, you can find space in your heart to forgive me for the failed collaboration we shared.

What inspired this email today is your latest Variety story. I am greatly honored by your words on my work; thank you, that felt good to read. I am a little confused about the narrative that I was fired, however. You and I both know the reasons for my exit. I quit your film because your actors & I couldn’t find time to rehearse. I have included as a reminder the screenshots of our text exchange on that day, and my text to Tobey.

I know that you are beginning your press run for DWD and that the news of my firing is attractive clickbait, as I am still persona-non-grata and may remain as such for the rest of my life. But, speaking of my daughter, I often think about the news articles she will read when she is literate. And though I owe, and will owe for the rest of my life, I only owe for my actions.

My failings with Twigs are fundamental and real, but they are not the narrative that has been presented. There is a time and a place to deal with such things, and I am trying to navigate a nuanced situation with respect for her and the truth, hence my silence. But this situation with your film and my “firing” will never have a court date with which to deal with the facts. If lies are repeated enough in the public they become truth. And so, it makes it that much harder for me to crawl out of the hole I have dug with my behaviors, to be able to provide for my family.

Firing me never took place, Olivia. And while I fully understand the attractiveness of pushing that story because of the current social landscape, the social currency that brings. It is not the truth. So I am humbly asking, as a person with an eye toward making things right, that you correct the narrative as best you can. I hope none of this negatively effects you, and that your film is successful in all the ways you want it to be.

Every Blessing To You,

Shia


Anyway this movie looks awful and her last one sucked too. Hard not to view this as the clickbait marketing that Shia calls her out on.

Seems that Catholicism had taken on a weird attraction for those raised in Protestant / non-practicing households. All the symbology and mysticism seems to have been carefully rebranded as spiritually intriguing rather than oppressive.

My experience with Catholicism was all about shame, church hierarchy, Hail Mary, etc. Oh and kiddie diddling. Don’t get the current attraction one bit.
