I think Alejandro Iñárritu might be the most misunderstood filmmaker in recent memory. I'm baffled by the critical response to “Digger," which I thought was terrific. Not always a Cruise fan, but I thought this was his best performance. Satire is tough to pull off, and I thought the film did it. I was also a fan of the director's last film, "Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths," which was also shunned by critics and audiences. I guess I live on another movie planet - oh well....
The Dodgers' hitters seem to have forgotten that singles and doubles, especially when runners are on base, are part of the game. 😢
I remember this weekend well. We opened with like 10 other movies - the most released all at once ever. But the film survived and is everlasting.

Despite what Trump says - no one is going to "take out" LA. Let's go Dodgers! #dodgers
Unfortunately, there is still a need for "No Kings" demonstrations. The Mad King is getting worse and worse every day. Here's a video I shot at our little protest in Los Feliz village. #NoKings

This detailed piece from the New York Times, if shown in court, will lead to convictions. This clearly shows, without bias, Renee Good was murdered in cold blood. #newyorktimes #ICEmuderers
