Hey Adam and Josh!!
Congrats on a GREAT live episode. Loved all of it, even though I am with Michael Phillips on the Wes Anderson question. It was nice to hear Dana and Michael articulate a lot of the reasons for my dislike of most of his films--especially since I really was not aware of what it is that so actively puts me off when I try to watch one.
BTW, have completely revised my opinion of Phillips, also. A few years back, I didn't like him at all, and felt he was phony and off-putting in his comments, but I really think at this point that he adds A LOT to the discussion. I take it all back! I was wrong about him, totally.
I want to SEE this entire thing and hope we will eventually be able to do that!!! Possibility?
Thanks for all you do!!
So, top 5 things learned from movies:
1. Never go up against a Sicilian when death is on the line.
2. Never sell your publishing.
3. Politics and politicians may change over time, but will always remain slightly or majorly soiled. (Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Chinatown, etc.)
4. One's point of view when watching movies changes RADICALLY as one ages -- once I was Elaine, and now I am Mrs. Robinson.
5. Parents and parenting may change over time, but will always remain a source of great stories; you can never go wrong loving a child, no matter what.
