"ALMOST FAMOUS is not just a story about falling in love with life’s possibilities, nor a story about falling in love with music; at its heart, it's a film about falling in love with writing about music. It’s the story of how a boy became a critic." https://t.co/1yB5FzD10l

Happy 90th to The Best To Ever Do It, writer/ director/ performer Elaine May!
In 2019, we dedicated an entire issue to May, her films, her writing, her comedy, and her singular brilliance.

“DOWN WITH LOVE cleverly uses exaggeration, artifice, and opulence to rocket it past pastiche and into a new space where it utilizes the genre’s shenanigans in order to comment on the genre itself.” https://t.co/5q1YDQ1Yyf
