Thanksgiving has arrived quickly this year... not sure why. Maybe it was the beach weather we were still having into late October around here. Yet, Toronto seems like eons ago already.
The only extremely active people in town seem to be the UPS and FedEx men and women, who are just getting ...

The announcement of Marc Shaiman to be Musical Director for The Oscars is not much of a surprise, given the relationship with Adam Shankman and his years of being around the Oscars, especially in the Billy Crystal era, when he worked with Crystal on all of those show opening numbers.

I was thrilled to welcome Quentin Tarantino's editor, Sally Menke, Michael Haneke's cinematographer, Christian Berger, and the editor of Tom Ford's directorial debut, A Single Man (and longtime Menke collaborator), Joan Sobel to the table to talk about their work. A really fun and ...

And it's not insignificant.
But as the Chinese curse goes, "May you live in interesting times."
