justinaforever I try to just stay ambitious for the project I am working on, not for some overall vision of a career which I can't control anyway. Strategy always ends up being bad strategy in my experience. #ARRAYNow

resting niche face Figure out what you can live with people knowing. Be brave. Show it to each family member alone, so they can tell you what they really think, before anyone else sees it. Know that you will be creating some fictions in order to protect people, and that's okay. #ARRAYNow

Joan Dellavalle ARRAY diane paragas Directing advice: Someone told me once, at the end of each day, make sure to say thank you to each and every person you worked with. Also - be like a goalie. People are going to keep shooting the puck right at your head. Just. Keep. Stopping. The. Puck. #ARRAYNow

@Errant_Dave The theme was a man enjoying doing things that were killing him. A kind of obliviousness in the way he lived. I think it was a metaphor for how mad I was at my Dad for smoking or some such immature nonsense...I've never been asked that. Embarrassing...#ARRAYNow

An astonishing piece of writing on Stories We Tell which people seem to be watching today. This line made me weep: "She gave us her childhood and in return we supported her quietly, from afar."So grateful for Rebecca Hirsch Garcia Bright Wall/Dark Room (bwdr.bsky.social) #happymothersday brightwalldarkroom.com/tag/stories-we…

What I like about this clip is knowing how ridiculous and funny the actors were being - and that without sound it comes across as a depiction of memory.... we had a ball being idiots and then others felt we were being profound. Satisfying on many levels!

If you had any idea what a fool I am you’d be happy for me that I made a “metatextual ending” by accident! Going to go look up metatextual now. Wheeee art! Also it’s on Amazon Prime which I also didn’t know! Thank you Phillip Iscove

A great podcast interviewing one of the most talented humans I know. The genius cinematographer, Iris Ng.

Delighted to announce the acquisition of two books by Oscar-nominated screenwriter, director, and actor @realSarahPolley (she/her). The first, RUN TOWARDS THE DANGER, coming March 2022, explores memory and the ongoing dialogue between Polley’s past and her present. bit.ly/3qUusN7

So excited to be adapting Miriam Toews incredible novel and working with these amazing people.

I hope I’m remembered for the fact that my mom and grandmother were two of the Helens. x.com/sopranomoose/s…

The brilliant cinematographer Iris Ng on her work on Stories We Tell. Her strange and wonderful creative sensibility drove the film into being.

“We create these clean narratives to make sense of our basically bewildering lives,” said Sarah Polley, the author of the new essay collection “Run Towards the Danger.” “Hopefully, over time, we can loosen our iron grip and let other complexities in.” nyti.ms/3rUzPPm
