Brad Pitt’s Esquire interview is something I’ve been chewing on all day because he’s so abnormally candid. My biggest takeaway? Pitt is lonely. All of which also appears to have influenced his creative decisions. Heart of the Beast is Pitt’s next film - out Sept. 25th - and it’s...

Nicolas Cage recently sat down with David Marchese, writer and co-host of The Interview with the The New York Times & it’s not just the best interview I’ve ever heard Cage give, it’s one of the best interviews with an actor I can remember in recent history. This is such a thoughtful discussion. My biggest takeaway from the interview is as follows: Cage is a genius. Not just an artistic genius who is constantly pushing himself to be “interested” (interested is a word Cage constantly returns to in this interview), it’s that Cage’s memory/recall/understanding of art- across all mediums- is unbelievable. This man lives to soak up music, poetry, painting- and of course, Cinema. It’s honestly inspiring how much this man knows & cares about art. All that knowledge makes Cage endlessly fascinating to listen to, especially when it comes to Cage’s process for picking & choosing films. I’ve always appreciated how Cage refuses to do the same thing over & over. He doesn’t just want something new- he has to have something new or he won’t do it. For example Dream Scenario, a role that Cage took on to help combat the “memefication” of his life. It’s unlike anything Cage has ever done yet he’s totally brilliant. Listening to why Cage chose Dream Scenario is just one exceptional portion of the interview. The full interview, which is about an hour, is available on YouTube. You will learn a lot & it’s entertaining as hell. I strongly advise checking it out.

Abbas Kiarostami on the theme of "Taste of Cherry" (1997) & the controversy he had with the Iranian censors: "Kiarostami: Different viewers have different opinions about that movie. Committing su!c!de is forbidden in Islam, of course, and is not even spoken of. But some religious people have liked the film because they felt that, just as you said, it shows a quest to connect with something more heavenly, something above physical life. The scene at the end, where you see cherry blossoms and beautiful things, has that message—that he has opened the door to heaven. It wasn’t a hellish thing he did, it was a heavenly transition. Interviewer: Did 'Taste of Cherry' run into difficulties with the censors because of its subject? Kiarostami: There was controversy about the movie, but after I talked with the authorities, they accepted the fact that this is not a movie about su!c!de—it’s about the choice we have in life, to end it whenever we want. We have a door we can open at any time, but we choose to stay, and the fact that we have this choice is, I think, God’s kindness. God is kind because he has given us this choice. They were satisfied with that explanation. A sentence from [a Romanian philosopher - Emil Cioran] helped me a lot: “Without the possibility of su!c!de, I would have k*!!ed myself long ago.” The movie is about the possibility of living, and how we have the choice to live. Life isn’t forced on us. That’s the main theme of the movie." (Abbas Kiarostami's interview with David Sterritt, Film Comment, 2000) P.S: On this day, 29 years ago, "Taste of Cherry" (1997) premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, France.

my new song “BREAKDOWN.” is out on the 21st of June!!! 🖤🖤🖤 I wrote this poem because it’s been the hardest year for my mental health. In my life I’ve always never felt good enough, it’s just the thing that’s eaten me up. For as long as I can remember i have felt constantly afraid of how quickly my head can turn dark. It’s always been so hard to fight the darkness that i inevitably have. A lot of people will say it’s a phase and it will go away. But it doesn’t and the reality of the situation is I have to find strategies to deal with it. To put it plainly the things I don’t like about myself will probably never change, people tell me one day I’ll come-to terms with them one day but I want that day to be FUCKING NOW. This song is a message to myself to try and exist alongside my insecurities and my darkness by grounding myself and remembering what is real in life and the world is so much bigger than me. Try and get out of your head and notice the world around you, notice the things and people around you. Connect with them, the chances are they probably feel the same. Don’t let the bullshit inside your head consume you. It just wastes precious time. Remember what is real. Help people, be kind, help the world, help yourself. If you think you can’t do it, you can. You can get through this, trust me. Use this poem in a mornin to get u out of bed, use it when youre about to back out of something last minute, use it when you’re at your darkest. It’s got a little bit of light in it. Don’t forget to put your feet in the grass … Mind
