If you know Michael Mann‘s Thief you know there’s a first-act scene in which James Caan sits down at a diner with Tuesday Weld, whom he’s getting to know, and halfway through the conversation he takes out a postcard-sized collage of photos and pasted magazine clippings and shows it to her, and thereafter explains that the images sum up his life, loves and aspirations. This was my first thought was I saw this Judd Apatow collage on Twitter this morning. To me these words and images are the loves, memories and aspirations of a fairly happy guy. Not to mention a guy with excellent taste in movies (“Why aren’t you at Birdman?”) I could put together a collage like this. Maybe when I get better on Photoshop.
