The final act of ‘If I Had Legs I’d Kick You’ is a frenzy of anger. ‘I always thought the movie doesn’t have a happy ending. It has a hopeful ending,’ director Mary Bronstein explains. vulture.com/article/mary-b…

Talked to Regina Hall about the “psychic” nature of One Battle After Another, screaming into the void, and whether Scary Movie 6 will be an A24 parody vulture.com/article/regina…

Briefly back to say: yesterday, I was laid off after 10 years at HuffPost. I’m obviously gutted. But once I take a breath, I’ll be open to jobs & freelance work, both in journalism and outside of it, given the state of our industry. bymarinafang@gmail.com; Signal: marinafang.72
