I used to walk to the video store with Gene, and he let me fill up a small paper bag with movies from the bargain bin. They were almost always horror movies. And he would always sit and listen to the stories I wrote that those movies inspired.
This is for Gene. #austinfilmfestival #scriptsky

Can’t put into words how grateful I am to be recognized by #AFF 💛
There was a time when I very nearly let the light inside me go dark. When I stopped believing in my dreams. When I didn’t think I mattered enough to stick around.
And then there was a time when movies literally saved my life.

Not sure if Bluesky’s the place for selfies with boring backgrounds, but I’m on my way to the Austin Film Fest for the first time, and I’d be lying if I said I haven’t been looking forward to this sorta thing my whole life 🥹
Smiling on the outside, crying on the inside, grateful all over #scriptsky

The first horror movie I watched with my husband was Mike Flanagan's OCULUS, and I could have *never* anticipated how upset/freaked out it would make him (I assumed everyone liked horror 😬).
11 years later, I walk in on him watching THE SUBSTANCE. By himself. Enjoying it. #itgetsbetter #horrorsky

It’s not that I think Kate Winslet shouldn’t have an Oscar for The Reader, it’s that I think she should have won TWO Oscars that year for The Reader AND Revolutionary Road.

Listening to the LABYRINTH soundtrack, creating my first D&D character, eating french fries…
