The success of Knives Out means that Rian Johnson is going to make more Benoit Blanc content. This is good! I approve.
Several female writers whose work I follow closely have new books (see List #93). This is also excellent!
Parasite was the surprise winner of the Best Picture award at the Oscars last night. Good job, everyone!
While we're in the zone of fulfilling my pop culture requests, I would like to put forward some additional items for consideration.
This list will likely occupy us for a few weeks, at least.
Item 1: Richard Ayoade and Aisling Bea in a romantic comedy
Last year was a big one for Aisling Bea! She mainstreamed it alongside Paul Rudd in a Netflix series and, more delightfully, created and starred in her own brilliant show (Rec. #831). Richard Ayoade is a perennial favorite of mine (List #63).
They've demonstrated ample chemistry together in an episode of Ayoade's Travel Man series (Rec. #396). More of that, please!
Item 2: Sled Dog stories from Blair Braverman as a series of children's books
The content for this one pretty much already exists as Twitter threads. It just needs a publishing deal!
Dogsledder Blair Braverman is already a published author, and she puts her words to excellent use when sharing tales of puppies learning to run, field trips off the farm, and messages from the pack. See Rec. #609 for direct links to even more examples of Sled Dog Story Time, and get ready to Feel Things.
