Honored to have one of my screenplays OCEAN OF PEARLS included amongst so many great films.


quickdarshan is also my Bluesky account. I’ve been there more than here lately and hopefully more of the sports writers I follow will eventually migrate as well.


They made up lies about ordinary people who've done nothing wrong (Haitian immigrants, a black woman and her mother working the polls). They got people to fear and hate them to the point they received bomb and death threats. And they paid no price politically.

When people talk about "the media" I assume they mean cable news, NYTimes and the Washington Post. With cable subscribers dwindling and mass unsubscribing of the Washington Post, we're at a tipping point. The right left those long ago. And now they're losing the rest.

New Blocking Breakdown from CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND. This one is nothing flashy in terms of camera movement. One dolly back and some pans and tilts to follow the movement. But the actor blocking is really exceptional. The actors move naturally through the frame into…


Great comedienne. My personal favorite is her performance in AFTER HOURS.

There was a time when an edit like this would use the score from “The Natural.” Now it’s ”Moneyball.” (enjoyable both ways)

Which movie has the most iconic fourth-wall break? I’ll start: Goodfellas (1990)



This pleases me. All these women did "wrong" was volunteer in their community.
