Sirk Circus
When I was a kid I loved watching whatever movies showed up on the two stations we got on our television. Friday nights usually. Some of those flicks were musicals and I was in awe of their over-the-top merriment, heartfelt sorrow, beautiful costumes, elegant dancing. We only ever had a black and white TV, so I was watching these extravaganzas minus their Technicolour splendour. And still they were amazing to me.

A Good Story . Top Story - September 2025.
Hemingway said: "The first draft of anything is shit." But for one particular screenplay that I laboured over, the second, third and fourth drafts were also going to be shit. And it would stay that way until I made some big changes. So, I had to start over, almost from scratch. I had to get back to craft. And I had to abandon proselytizing.
