Peter Scolari... what an actor and he will be missed.
A film about Barbie starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling directed by Greta Gerwig... I'm now intrigued.
I hate what happened over Rust as I feel awful for Alec Baldwin as I don't think he's ever going to be the same. Honestly, who the fuck puts a live bullet on a prop gun? I thought we were done with that shit after what happened to Brandon Lee. No one should've died over that shit and there needs to be an investigation.
The interview with Harriet Walter is an absolute delight. I've been following her since Sense and Sensibilty.
"Ryan Gosling will play Ken to Margot Robbie's Barbie in the movie by Greta Gerwig. Still trying to figure out what they could do with this that Toy Story didn't already do brilliantly"
Greta Gerwig made two of the best movies of the best decade (including a completely original Little Women), so she probably deserves our trust, right? As someone who grew up playing with Barbies, I'm excited that Barbie will be the main character in a real auteur-driven movie.
Sorry, double post.
Harriet Walter is in EVERYTHING these days. What an amazing actor. Her Talking Heads episode was heart-breaking. And for something different, check out her performance in Flowers and as Brutus in a pro-shot of the all-female Julius Caesar.
