Anyone who has ever lived or spent time in DC knows about the iconic Uptown Theater. Read about this cool project led by @Elenzner to save it dcist.com/story/23/03/16…

@AZapruder Hear hear!

@billybragg You were great in DC last night - thanks Billy!

At the lovely Keswick Theatre tonight in Glenside, a suburb of Philadelphia. Please note that the locals pronounce the ‘w’ in Keswick. Onstage at 9pm support 8pm.

@AZapruder Yes

@AZapruder I challenge your premise – "weird" and "brilliant" should be one and the same.

Very excited to launch this new fellowship today in partnership with the Entertainment Industry College Outreach Program, expanding our ongoing efforts to diversify the Hollywood pipeline. motionpictures.org/press/new-dive…

For the first time ever, subscriptions to online video services surpassed 1 billion in 2020. Read more in our newest THEME Report, which explores how the film, TV, and streaming industry performed last year: motionpictures.org/research-docs/…

@AZapruder @ThatEricAlper I can do the same thing with TV commercials - Susan Sarandon flacks Tylenol, Jon Hamm does Mercedes ads. Now you know.

Mike was a tireless champion of the entertainment industry and a good friend to @motionpictures. My thoughts today are with his wife Patti, his entire family, and the Maryland constituents he served for more than four decades. We’ll miss you, Mike. motionpictures.org/press/motion-p…

Violence has no place in America – full stop. Peaceful protest is a cornerstone of our society, but the insurrection taking place in DC today poses a direct threat to our nation. We must all condemn these actions and uphold the ideals that protect and preserve our democracy.

We lost a giant today, the legendary #seanconnery. As a lifelong fan, I’ve treasured his roles as James Bond, Jim Malone, Henry Jones Sr., Captain Marko Ramius and so many others. Rest in peace, Sir Sean Connery. You were the epitome of grace. variety.com/2020/film/acto…

@VincentMorris Can’t wait to dive into the “very heavy” health care plan that Kayleigh gave Lesley at the end.

Very happy to be joining @motionpictures as SVP of Corporate Communications. I’ve loved working in the #blockchain community, but the chance to work with the great @Elenzner , the exceptional MPA team and its iconic members was too good to pass up. deadline.com/2020/09/john-m…
