"My reason is preposterous. I have no reason. No. I woke up one day, Mitch, and I realized my life was perfect. Everything I ever wanted... from the time I was 6, had been realized. I discovered perfection obtained is a discomforting state... and I got restless. What do you do when everything is right? When everything is just the way you've always wanted it to be?"

NEW PROPAGANDA AND MEDIA UNDER CUT: ALL POLLS HERE

"We have Donna Murphy as Dolly. We have Donna Murphy as Aurelia. What are we doing to get Donna Murphy in a Mame revival so she can hit the Jerry Herman trifecta? I need this woman back on a stage immediately and genuinely, I cannot tell you how much money I'd be realistically willing to shell out. And on a more personal note? What do I have to do to get Donna Murphy to look at me like she wants to devour me whole? The things I want to do to this woman... She has chemistry with every single person she crosses paths with. I need her carnally."

"Mary Beth Peil's hair deserves a Tony Award of its own. She started going grey almost twenty years ago and never looked back. A grey-haired octogenarian who's actively out here being hot and sexy and showing skin is quite possible one of the hottest things in the world. Let me reiterate: I want to fuck this old woman."

“Whenever something good happens for me in my life I can draw a straight line back to somebody who was meant to be here tonight, but being a New Yorker means living in a reality that you are definitely not in control of, so... She's not in the room, but she's in my heart. Mary Beth Peil played my grams on Dawson's Creek. I was an emancipated minor when we met, I was 16 years old and I was totally alone. Mary Beth Peil was the first artist that I had ever met in my life. She didn't call herself that, but there was something different about her; it was the way that she asked questions, the way that she leaned into conversations and how excited she seemed for every moment of every day on our TV set. And I didn't know what this ineffable quality was, but I knew I wanted to pull my chair closer to hers. We started talking constantly; I learned that she was an opera singer, she was a Tony nominee, she was a mother, she crossed over from TV to film to theater like she was changing trains at rush hour, she could do anything. She lived an artist’s life, she was brimming and bursting with energy and she showed me that creativity was more than a mere profession and all of this vitality was miraculously turned in my direction, her smiling face was looking at me, and she called me her girl. She told me stories about this place, New York fucking City, and she said it was somewhere that I could go and I could build a life. She said that I should try doing theater. I started reading plays and talking to her about them and she urged me on, ‘Yes, yes! That's wonderful, my girl. You should do that. you should try that!’ I wasn't an artist, or a mother, I wasn't even a high school graduate. Honestly, I was barely even a Michelle, I had just gotten people to stop calling me Shelly. But now I was Mary Beth's girl, and that made me a somebody. So I'm grateful for this honor because it allows me to look backwards in time and realize that I couldn't have played Wendy Carroll, or Randi Chandler, or Marilyn, or Gwen, or Mitzi Fabelman without having first played Jen Lindley. I wouldn't have known how to handle being Steven Spielberg's mother without having been Mary Beth's granddaughter. So thank you Mary Beth and thank you Gotham Awards for this.”

Song of Sway Lake Interview with Ari Gold

A RobertSheehanOwnsMyAss exclusive!

Over a year ago I had the pleasure of exchanging some messages with Ari Gold and he agreed to a short Q&A. I just had some questions about the story and the production, in part because I'm very familiar with the area in which the film was shot, but also, it's a movie that makes you think! It has taken me forever, in part because I went on hiatus shortly afterward, but I've finally gotten around to transcribing the answers from a voice recording. Enjoy!

Q: I'm super curious about filming locations because I actually spend a lot of time in the area. On instagram you tag a lot of your production photos as "Lake George." Did you do any filming there? (side note: Lake George is a really popular tourist destination in upstate NY and a lot of people come up from NYC to weekend there.)

A: Thank you for watching! We always say “Lake George” to catch more attention - to get the word out about the movie! 95% was Blue Mountain Lake except the bar scene which was on Long Lake. 

Q: What is the significance of Nikolai's necklace? It looks like a chain with a wedding ring on it. He was wearing it early on before he started stealing things from the house.

A: It is a necklace with a wedding ring on it. If I remember correctly, we just liked the look of it. I don't know that we had anything more than that.

Q: Nikolai is a vivacious extrovert juxtaposed with quiet and withdrawn Ollie. Ollie seems unimpressed (if not repulsed) by his family history where Nikolai covets it, yet both men come from some degree of dysfunction. Do you see them as opposite sides of the same coin?

A: I do see Nik and Ollie as opposite sides of the same coin. Basically both of them are stuck in the past; Ollie wants to erase his past and Nikolai wants to steal his past, but both of them have the same problem in that both of them can't seem to live in the present.

Q: Was that a real functioning Chris Craft you got to film with? (Side note, these are really cool antique boats and there aren't many of them left.)

A: Yes! It was, we borrowed it from a family across the lake and Mr. Culkin crashed it into a rock. Lightly! He bumped into a rock which caused a pain in the ass repair.

Q: Did you hike up Blue Mountain and visit the fire tower?

A: Yes, we visited the fire tower and I've hiked up Castle Rock dozens of times, yeah.

Q: Did Robert Sheehan stick to his script at all or did he ad-lib a lot of his lines?

A: He did not ad-lib, but he would try things in advance for me to approve. Actually wait...he did ad-lib! One of my favorite lines that he did ad-lib was: "Cupid was a naked baby. Make me feel uncomfortable." And also: "Operation silence is when I put my penis in your mouth." Both of those were ad-libbed and were amazing.

Q: Does Mary Beth Peil actually sparkle or is that just how she looks onscreen?

A: Yeah she kind of does sparkle. And we gave her a sparkly dress!

Thanks for reading! If you haven't seen it yet, check out The Song of Sway Lake wherever you buy or rent movies. You can also watch it free on Tubi with ads.

25 years of 'Dawson's Creek: Complete Series' on Hulu and HBO Max

After making his name with the Scream franchise, Kevin Williamson turned from teen horror to semi-autobiographical coming-of-age drama with Dawson’s Creek (1998-2003). His hit young adult series was a nicely crafted rural response to Beverly Hills 90120 that become one of the defining shows of the fledgling WB network. James Van Der Beek stands in for Williamson, a movie-mad high school kid who…
