Gr8 piece on James Harris & Mark Lane,producers 1st to believe in Curry Barker. Barker has been whisked away by Hollywood & already shot his next film wo them. Indie producers are 1st to invest resources in new talent. Hwood shld start rewarding us for it! hollywoodreporter.com/movies…

My directors who've made films w/o me said they missed having me around as partner invested in story w/whom to brainstorm creative solns & dream big. Passion for problem-solving & knowledge of how to make a movie is what separates Career Producers from credit hogs. @Tribeca

If everyone who worked in film would just let the filmmakers make the films, the world would have better films and life would just be grand.

Congrats to Juan Devis on his new post as President of @filmindependent! I had the chance to meet him last week, and while I was a mess of emotions thinking of Josh Welsh, I was (and am) excited about Juan's vision for our beloved organization. ¡Vámonos! deadline.com/2026/04/film-in…

Gr8 piece. DIY distribution is brutally hard & expensive. But so is filmmaking. "This might sound cynical, but the cottage industry that has grown around filmmaker-led, community-focused distribution may be offering false promises to a lot of filmmakers." anthonykaufman.substack.com/…

What an unbelievably tragic weekend. Big hugs to the Brown community, the Jewish community, and the loved ones of Rob & Michele Reiner and those whose lives were taken.
