Had a very intense emotional reaction to this one, given My Background*, so I am putting it on the feed, surrounded by beautiful plants. Recommended for anyone who heard “You can choose your friends, but you can’t choose your family” and said, “Watch me fuckin try!!”

I really loved The Director, for its loving evocation of old filmmaking techniques, its imaginative “reconstruction” of a famous lost film, and its exploration of the thin line between artistic ego and fascist complicity. As someone fitfully employed by the American television industry, I didn’t not have a lot of thoughts about whether my dreams matter at all in the grand scheme of history, not at all!!
Highly recommend to my fellow screenwriters!
