Six year old niece told her mum this morning that she was practicing her writing. "Oh, just in case my other plans in life fail, I thought I can be a writer." So if anyone needs me I'll be over here staring into the darkness.

A fascinating read even if - like me - you liked the film quite a bit more than this.

Like most days, today is a good day to watch Rye Lane and get on the hype train. The Long Walk and Alien Romulus can be your chasers.

This is the shit that female directors have to deal with. They don't get credit for (miraculous!) successes but they do get blame for any hint of failure. Gerwig has directed three absolutely classic films and not one of them were gimmes.
