Marianne Jean-Baptiste is receiving critical acclaim for her “virtuosic turn” in Mike Leigh’s ‘HARD TRUTHS’ “Oscar-worthy” – BBC “A colossal performance…” – IndieWire “An exceptional performance from Jean-Baptiste.” – The Guardian

So happy for and proud of my dear old friend and Araki inverse. Brady and I both went to Venice for the first time together with Gregg’s Mysterious Skin. If you had told me then that he’d go on to win best director there, I wouldn’t have been surprised in the slightest 🤍👏👏👏😄
