More in this series about the staff that isn’t much talked about would be great! Writers, Composers, Artists, Practical and Special Effects etc.

Wow crazy timing! Just binge-watched interviews on Once Upon a Time in Hollywood today. He’s very lucky with all the great films he’s worked with. And to shoot a film, freezing with broken back, that’s just badass.

Platoon is the greatest war film of all time. Been a huge fan since Oliver Stone.

The amount of feet footage this man must have because of Tarantino is scary to think about

It’s interesting to see that because these new videos in quarantine are recorded by the interviewee themselves, this genius cinematographer even paid quite a lot of attention how to frame himself. Look at the scene and its perspective.

LAVISHLY DEMURE

Las Vegas Aces superstar A’ja Wilson shows us what’s inside her Labubu-laden Louis Vuitton bag. The WNBA MVP always carries two pairs of glasses, depending on what the occasion calls for, and pulls out her favorite snack, a bag of Sour Patch Kids. The most meaningful item in A’ja’s bag is her late grandmother’s coin purse, which she now uses to carry her ID cards. “I don’t put coins in it because my heart’s in it.”
