Weird package came to the house.

Weird package came to the house.

Stopped into @godmothersbooks the other day and randomly picked up a copy of Eleanor Johnson’s Scream with Me: Horror Films and the Rise of American Feminism. Thumbed through and to my surprise and delight CREEP and CREEP 2 are given a huge chunk of print with a detailed analysis of both films through a feminist lens. The entire book is brilliant and it’s a major honor to be included. Grab a copy!

👉 Pour la première fois en France @patrickbrice viendra présenter les dejà cultes Creep et Creep 2 (avec @markduplass en légende). Une soirée en partenariat avec @rockyramacrue 🔥Merci à @will_rthalu pour le visuel et à @lilyynelson qui animera la rencontre ♥️

Deeply grateful that I got the chance to collaborate with this man. I worked with James on the first episode of television I directed. He was kind and fun and professional. His instincts, from wardrobe choices to unexpected dance moves, were dead on.

The memory that shines through all of that was his genuine joy and encouragement upon hearing that I was about to become a father. There was no question that his family was the most important thing in his life. There was a spark in his eye whenever he talked about his kids, which was all the time.

I’m keeping his big heart in my memory forever.
