I have a new piece running on Criterion, on Joan Micklin Silver. My first piece for The Criterion Collection, a milestone! The piece also relates the wild story of how Joan and I met. www.criterion.com/current/post...

Visited director Irving Rapper’s grave today, placed a rock on the headstone, and recited a Jewish remembrance prayer. Irving is buried next to his sister Hannah in Queens. The rock was picked from near his old home in Hollywood and transported cross-country for the occasion.

I would use Bluesky more if it weren’t for the stupid character limit.

My titles as director, as they appear on MUBI.

Sidney J. Furie had been ignored for too long, and I felt it my duty to set the record straight and give him his due. I wrote the first book on his life and career, and produced this tribute box set from Imprint. Who’s good for one classic? This guy’s been good for a number of them!

Catch my epic feature film OVERWHELM THE SKY (2019) via Kino Lorber, on multiple platforms and on physical media (with extras) – we originally screened this in roadshow fashion with overture, intermission, and printed souvenir programs!
