Really wish Friedkin was still around to vociferiously and profanely decry this.

I still think of him as the screenwriter of HELL OR HIGH WATER, which seemed so perceptive and nuanced. Maybe the directing and performances had more to do with that?

The first time I saw Patti live was her keynote speech for the very short-lived Philadephia Music Conference around 1996. She wanted to close by reciting "People Have the Power" but an audience member had to prompt her the opening line.

A close picture of a hawk or some other kind of bird of prey. The color-correction of the photo has turned the head and wings of the bird a dark grey-blue-green, and the chest a faded orange. The bird looks off to the right, the image cuts off the bird's beak.

Gillian Welch, a thin white woman with long brown hair, sits on a table that have cushions on them. She is in a red dress covered with white flower shapes. The cushions have a multicolored, striped, kind of plaid pattern on them. The woman looks off to the right with a slight look of puzzlement.

Heathcliff stands on a front yard holding a detonator connected to some dynamite with a long cord. As he pushes the plunger down on the detonator, the dynamite explodes with a puff of smoke and a loud BOOM. The owner of the house, angrily looking out his window, says "I'm tired of replacing lawn gnomes."

Heathcliff sits contemplatively in an armchair, surrounded by several framed pictures of meat, with a few pieces of meat hanging from the ceiling on wires. Grandma Nutmeg stands at the doorway with her friend and says "His aesthetic is meat core."

It remains wild that this is how Michael Mann chooses to frame a man on the phone.

"I have resisting watching M*A*S*H because it looks like one of those shows that gestures at martini-swilling doctors during the Korean War while actually teaching its audience the difference between a chicken and baby."
