Notes
RIP, Nora Ephron
Writer and director Nora Ephron has died. The New York Times has an overview of her life and career and Marsha McCreadie has a memoriam at Movieline. “Ms. Ephron’s collection I Remember Nothing concludes with two lists, one of things she says she won’t miss and one of things she will. Among the ‘won’t miss’ items are dry skin, Clarence Thomas, the sound of the vacuum cleaner, and panels on ‘Women in Film.’ The other list….ends this way: ‘Taking a bath/ Coming over the bridge to Manhattan/ Pie.’”
