Tenet

Christopher Nolan

@donetodeath When Christopher Nolan was promoting "TENET" he kept gushing about Travis Scott and how important his dumb credit sequence song was to making the whole movie work and I find it so hard to take him seriously now.

Party in the Blitz: The English Years

Elias Canetti

It figures that Bertrand Russell should come into this. Makes me want to revisit "Party in the Blitz" by Elias Canetti, whose contempt for Russell leaps off the page in glorious fashion. https://t.co/F1ODCQFpPv

Spalding Gray

I've been thinking a lot about Spalding Gray lately. When I was fourteen I saw "Swimming to Cambodia" on television, then read his book "Sex and Death to the Age 14." Both made a huge impression on me.

@mollylambert Mark Lanegan was so creeped out by him that their one encounter made it into his memoir "Sing Backwards and Weep."

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford

@AdamJKovac To be clear, I loved all these movies, but took for granted that this kind of film would always be around. Sadly, the end came in 2007, when we got "There Will Be Blood," "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford," and "No Country for Old Men" in the same year.
