Robert Altman died yesterday. 1925-2006.
If you don’t know who Robert Altman is, you have missed out on some amazing movies. Altman made a ridiculous amount of movies and much less importantly, a few of my favorites.

I heard an NPR interview with Elliott Gouldlast night. He was asked bout his experiences and friendship with Altman. He said that actors would stand in line to have a bit part in Altman's movies, because the way he directed forced them to be a better actor. What a legacy. How incredible would it be to have that on your tombstone? “People longed to be around _______ because they forced them to be a better person”.

Almost started to go deep there. It was gonna be my NBC

"The more you know" moment.





Have you seen “The more you know’s” from the Office? Brilliant.

Have a great long weekend. Eat a lot of turkey. Tell your parents how much you love them. Sleep a lot.
