Damn. Diane Keaton. One of the good ones. 

She'll be best remembered for her work in Woody Allen's films (particularly Annie Hall), but she was really good in a lot of other stuff, too. Looking for Mr. Goodbar, Something's Gotta Give, Reds, the Godfather trilogy etc.

She was so incredibly unique, funny and had an incredible sense of style. 

RIP.

Legendary movie poster artist Drew Struzan died yesterday.  You might not know the name, but you've seen a film he did the poster art for.

 

I also will highly recommend again the documentary about his work:

Fucking hell, D'Angelo's gone - pancreatic cancer. Five years older than I am. That wretched disease.

RIP.

My room was covered with these as my mates brother was seeing a girl who worked at the Tatton Cinema in Gatley and she used to get them for me.

Ah that is so shit.

His work when he was part of the Soulquarians with Dilla, Questlove, Q-Tip etc was absolutely peak, and one of my favourite albums of all time is Common - Like Water For Chocolate.

That, The Roots - Things Fall Apart, D'Angelo - Voodoo and a couple of others were all pretty much made at the same time at the same recording sessions and you can tell, it all has this beautiful vibe to it.

Just wonderful soul filled music.

Only yesterday I learned that D'Angelo did this track, which features in an iconic moment in RDR2 (my favourite game of all time).

 

Just an absolutely beautiful song.

I have two coffee table books. His work is as beautiful to me as any of the real artists we studied at school. His work was such a key part of me growing up, and in a world without easy access to trailers, his posters would be the way I would choose what films to want to watch. A genius.
