Judith Weston

Deepest gratitude for the life of one so generous with his gifts and his vision. 89 is a good amount of years but I’m still heartbroken.

Addition and subtraction.

@TampaWoman1965 @magi_jay I do blame them.

@magi_jay Colbert and Stewart did that rally for sanity in 2010 5 days before midterms and it was the lowest turnout for Democrats in 40 years. I'm not blaming them completely but I don't think it helped

I agree, tho I will add, just for the sake of further discussion -We did like Stewart & Colbert (not talk radio) -Personally I LOVED Lovett or Leavitt & PSA the first 1.5 years they were on, 2017-early 2019. -What liberals "like" might not be the solution to The Problem With Men

@SenWhitehouse To quote China’s Minister of Foreign Affairs: “Bowing to a bully is like drinking poison to quench thirst.”

There’s one way you go from the creator of a “hostile and political act” to a “terrific, good guy” in mere hours: you get on your knees and crawl. cnn.com/2025/04/29/bus…

@SkinnerPm There’s nothing like azalea season!

@dieworkwear I love your posts even though I’ve never before had any interest in menswear. This photo has resurfaced on social media following Marianne Faithful’s passing. I couldn’t help thinking of you.

Directing #Actors: Creating Memorable Performances For #Film & #TV - Judith Weston [FULL INTERVIEW] buff.ly/3XOu58G

A one-minute excerpt from the audiobook of The Film Director’s Intuition, which came out a few months ago. It’s revised, expanded, and clarifies the tools and ideas of the print version, which was published in 2003.

@Malala @HC_Richardson ♥️

Exactly 12 years ago today, a Taliban gunman pointed his gun at my head and shot me for daring to speak up for girls’ right to go to school. I want to thank every person for your solidarity and support, from praying for my recovery to helping me in my work for girls’ access to education, both in my home country of Pakistan and around the world. Most years, I spend October 9th like any other day, with gratitude for having lived another year. But today, I am in New York to address the American Society of International Law (ASIL), a prestigious group of legal experts who have chosen to honour @MalalaFund and its work alongside Afghan activists fighting to protect the right to education for girls in Afghanistan. These women worked tirelessly before the fall of Kabul in 2021, and fearlessly since, to keep girls learning under the most impossible circumstances. It is humbling to stand alongside them and gratifying to see them receive the recognition they deserve. The Taliban continue to point literal and metaphoric weapons at girls and women in Afghanistan every day, from public beatings to ruthless edicts that ban them from learning, working and living freely. The brutality of the Taliban’s oppressive system against women is so extreme that Afghan activists and human rights defenders are calling it gender apartheid. Right now, Afghan women and girls need more than words of sympathy. I call on governments and influential institutions to leverage their power, and through international law, hold the Taliban accountable. I especially call on Muslim leaders and institutions to play a leading role in challenging the Taliban’s misuse of religion and culture. Just as people stood with me and my friends more than a decade ago, I hope people will stand in solidarity with Afghan girls and women now. ❤️ @Hmosadiq @zarqayaftali @deemahiram @metra_mehran @RahelaHSidiqi @SHalaimzai

@vkaramurza @CBCNews @CBC We are so grateful for you, so grateful for your return.

@Reese10Angel 💙

What a year. I never would have imagined the last bucket of my rookie season would be a 3 but maybe that was God saying give them a taste of what they will be seeing more of in Year 2 lol🥲Through it all, I have showed that I belong in this league even when no one else believed. All I have ever wanted was to come into the W and make an impact. I can confidently say I have done that and will strive to keep doing so. I’m filled with emotions right now that I have a season ending injury, but also filled with so much gratitude for what is next. Although this is God’s timing and not mine, I am finally able to give myself a physical and mental break. “God gives his hardest battles to his strongest soldiers.” You’ll still see me being the biggest cheerleader on the sideline! And Unrivaled league, see you soon! 💞😇

@RepNancyMace You think it’s a hoot to disrespect others but you’re only bringing shame on your own name. #Nanzi

These boys were so easily triggered.

@HarshStanton That’s what I was hoping for! 🙏🏼💐

@JudithWeston It is a really great book as it gives a compass to directors to apprehend this fabulous and sometimes tough universe of acting. Thank you very much. It’s an empowering book !

Oh thank you! I’m so glad you’re enjoying it. I’m proud of this audiobook and hope it will help filmmakers, actors, writers, to fulfill the promise of their imaginations. 🙏🏼

In this interview with @wwgnpodcast , Michael and I got into areas more personal than usually happens on podcasts, but it felt right because that’s how I teach anyway, with personal stories 🩵 wherewegonext.com/episodes/judit…

A great resource and an exciting read.

I hope I’ve created something that will make you feel challenged—and supported—in your storytelling journey.

Audiobook drops Tuesday! It’s 20 years since I originally wrote The Film Director’s Intuition, so I needed to clarify, update, and, yes, go deeper. Narrated by me. Available now for pre-order. If you access your audiobooks via your local library—get in the queue! 🩵
