"These are my favorites. Donald and Charlie Kaufman. Both played by Nicholas Cage to perfection. I could go for days on this one. But the journey from Donald’s insufferable buffoonery to where they end up is like nothing I’ve ever seen. Funny, sad, beautiful stuff."

Book Favorite

"Long before I started to write in earnest, Lorrie Moore taught me you could have a woman narrator who was funny and complex and even wrong-headed. She opened up a lot of space that me and a million other women rushed in to."

Movie Favorite

"With no narrator, a Philip Glass score, and dramatic reenactments, there’s a lot of media that tries to imitate The Thin Blue Line, either without knowing the source or without coming close to Errol Morris’s dramatic, funny, and chilling documentary, which redefined the genre."

Book Favorite

"A wonderful story about growing up with a severely limited, yet fascinating and eccentric family. It's very funny and sad and most of the scenes are unforgettable. Some of them are so hard to believe—but they're real—and that makes the story even richer."

Tom Perrotta recommended Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant?: A Memoir in Books (curated)

"Roz Chast is always funny, but this graphic memoir about caring for her aging parents is also raw, brutally honest, and heartbreaking. It’s an unsparing portrait of decline, but also a loving act of witness; it tells the truth without sugar-coating or looking away."

Think I'm hooked!

Think you'll either love it or hate it. There's no in between. Definitely worth the watch!

This movie is all about how amazing Jim Carey is and people with funny noses. I can't get over how fantastic The Grinch looks when he dresses up for the town celebration <3 "That's it, I'm not going"... I quote that way too often XD
