On the iPhone at 3 AM

There are occasions when I find myself burning the midnight oil on a project, wrapping up work before heading to bed for a full day ahead. My rational mind comprehends the need for rest and acknowledges the adverse effects of staring at a screen in the dark on my ability to fall asleep. Yet, there's a tiny corner of my brain, perhaps the ventral tegmental area, that craves that final hit of dopamine.

Even though I'm aware of my fatigue and the necessity for sleep, the temptation to check my iMessages, post on Instagram and X, and, if I'm horny enough, delve into Onlyfans, becomes irresistible.

Bo Goldman

Film Appreciation

Bo Goldman, an acclaimed American screenwriter and playwright, was born on September 10, 1932, in New York City. He grew up in a family that appreciated the arts, which shaped his early love for storytelling. After attending Phillips Exeter Academy, Goldman pursued higher education at Princeton University, where he honed his craft in creative writing and theater. His passion for writing was evident from a young age, leading him to a career that would leave a lasting mark on the film industry.

Goldman’s screenwriting career reached significant heights with two Academy Awards. His first Oscar came in 1976 for the film One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, which he co-wrote. The screenplay was a critical success, showcasing his talent for adapting complex narratives to the screen. His second Academy Award came in 1981 for Melvin and Howard, a quirky and poignant film that further cemented his reputation as a top screenwriter in Hollywood. These accolades highlighted his ability to blend character depth with compelling storylines, making him a sought-after writer in the industry.

Among his other memorable works, Scent of a Woman (1992) stands out as a testament to his skill in crafting emotionally resonant narratives. The film, starring Al Pacino, earned Goldman a Golden Globe for Best Screenplay. His later work on Meet Joe Black (1998) further showcased his versatility, blending drama with elements of the supernatural. 

On July 25, 2023, Goldman passed away at the age of 90. His contributions to cinema continue to be celebrated, and his legacy as a storyteller endures through the timeless quality of his work.
