1: I liked both 11.22.63 in book and mini-series form although it's been quite a while since I've read/watched it. I do remember when they were filming it because at that time I was working in Downtown Dallas and James Franco screwed up my commute for a few weeks. Dallas is very weird about JFK. If it's possible for a city to have generational trauma, Dallas definitely does. It certainly fuels the city's inferiority complex. The ghosts are all around. I'm going to a movie tomorrow at the Texas Theatre, where Lee Harvey Oswald was caught. There's plenty of reminders about it there too.
3: As a fan of gen-x nihilism, I'm a fan of Fight Club. Although like a lot of things I don't advertise it because too many people miss the point. If you meet someone who says they're a fan, try to figure out if they think Tyler Durden is the hero. If they think he is, run. Otherwise you're going to get stuck talking about how great Elon Musk is or back episodes of Joe Rogan. Also, I think about this a lot. The Fight Club teaser trailer was a preview at The Phantom Menace. That is just wild to think about.
Given all the hit films he's scored, Williams is probably the one Hollywood film composer whose name everyone knows...

Great line. It seems we're built the same :)
Whoever coined the saying, “it’s the journey, not the destination,” clearly has never been stranded in an airport for 12 hours.
Oh, yes, of course. After that one, he and Steven Spielberg were basically joined at the hip...
He's been in Hollywood since the 1960s, but it was "Star Wars" that put him on the map.
