i wrote about Taika Waititi's delusional and embarrassing Instagram post, and how it reflects a deeper problem about the impacts of social media on the entire artistic ecosystem: indiewire.com/criticism/movi…

So many other things to remember and celebrate Sir Patrick Stewart for... but this has to be one of the best line readings in the history of The Simpsons

Shocking. Obscene. Bizarrely contemporary. Horror drama The Devils is back and uncut, 55 years after it was banned – and is the buzziest film in cinemas this Halloween. Here's why audiences are going wild for its revival. Read more: empireonline.com/movies/feat…

We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of RSC Honorary Associate Artist, Sir Patrick Stewart; a colossus of both stage and screen and one of the finest classical Shakespearean actors of his generation.

What a heartbreaking week it has been. Sir Patrick Stewart was a friend, a colleague, and a magnificent actor. From the stage to the bridge of the Enterprise, he brought intelligence, grace, and a deep sense of humanity to everything he did. Captain Picard stood for the best of us, and so did the man who played him. I was filled with affection and admiration for him and his work. My heart goes out to Sunny and his family. He will be deeply missed.

He was such a passionate campaigner against domestic violence too, as someone who experienced it as a child. Did such vital work as an ambassador for Refuge. Here he is arguing against gov cuts to DV safe houses in 2012: theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Personally, one of my favourite horror performances is Patrick Stewart in Green Room (2015), playing very much against type as a Neo-Nazi leader and club owner. Completely chilling and understated. Kind of role you wouldn’t expect from him but he nails it.

Patrick Stewart was a remarkable and magnetic actor with such an immense body of work that it’s hard to pinpoint him for what would be his most memorable role. Deeply sad news. Rest in peace.

I’m 90% of the way to 60wpm at the moment, also low vision but I don’t use braille. For me it’s regular teeline with bold ruled notebooks and a bold pen. Any time I get disheartened I read this story. If she can do 100, so can I. #teeline #shorthand #journalism
Blind journalism student Kate Pounds has passed her 100wpm NCTJ shorthand exam using a braille code from 1959 combined with Teeline lessons and a specialist note-taking device. She said she hoped to inspire other visually-impaired journalists. More here: bit.ly/3hMlz4p

This might be one of the best films of the year. The BFI London Film Festival is in full swing, and our Reviews Editor John Nugent and Social Media Editor Harry Stainer sit down to discuss the film they think is the standout.
