  3. Currently reading #LiberationDay by #GeorgeSaunders.

    #Saunders is my favorite living writer, the winner of not only the 2017 #ManBookerPrize, but also a #MacArthur #GeniusGrant. If you haven't read anything by him yet, I recommend starting with the hilarious but acerbic short story #SeaOak, or the much gentler #Fox8.

  4. “Twentieth Century” (1934) 2/4 - It’s got all the right elements, but the telling causes this #CaroleLombard and #JohnBarrymore prototype #screwball comedy to drag. The scenes with #Lombard and #Barrymore trying to out-theatre the other are insanely fun even if #Barrymore feels like he is more acting than ‘reacting’. From a writing standpoint, it’s interesting to stack against #Hecht, #MacArthur, and #Hawks’s better known film, “His Girlfriend Friday” (4/4), which never fails to dazzle.
