Things To Do With Your Reviews

1. Push delete. 2. Start a fire. 3. Make confetti. 4. Line your rabbit cage.

Do you save them? Frame them on the wall? Do you learn from them or use them for target practice? Should you ignore them? Scorsese claims to remember every bad review and the name of each critic.

Or don't you even read them? I'm not inclined to believe you.

What do you get four years after you win best short film at the Paste Rock 'N Reel Fest? A negative review in Paste Magazine. Disappointing? Yes. Should I care? Probably not.

"Don't read your reviews. Don't believe them when they tell you you're great; don't worry if they tell you you're no good. Just shut up and make your movies and that really works fine." WOODY ALLEN

Let's see, they're upset because Calvin Marshall looks like Cusack? Well, I'm happy that Coach looks like Lenny from That Thing You Do.
