For Mike Detillier · 3d ago

Never met him but listened to him break down film every spring since I was a kid. Made draft season feel like something that mattered. Rest easy, Mike.

For Frank McDonald · 4d ago

Just finished 'Truly Frank'. His honesty about growing up in 1950s Ireland, about who he was, about waiting forty years to marry the man he loved. That takes real courage. Rest well.

For Roberta Flack · 26d ago

She was so young at Howard. Fifteen. And brilliant. Rest easy, Roberta.

For Phyllida Law · 6 Aug 2026

read all three of her books. the way she wrote about theatre and family felt like she was talking to you in a room. really going to miss that.

For Joan Didion · 22 Jun 2026

Just finished Play It as It Lays for the first time and I'm shaken. How does she make emptiness feel like the most honest thing in the world?

For David Lynch · 11 Feb 2026

Eraserhead is a masterpiece. I've watched it maybe twenty times trying to understand it and I still feel something new each time. A real loss.
