You know what's weird? I kind of miss Amy Adams. I was so exhausted by her in recent years with all the Hollywood Report roundtables and the easy awards track even for minor work that was forgotten instantly (Big Eyes anyone?). But the year off as well at that recent David O. Russell confessional has made the heart grow fond again. Funny how that can happen. See also Cate Blanchett's short break some years ago.
Which is why we'll start with Amy for this week's collection of a dozen favorite tweets. Tweets featuring A History of Violence, Carol, Vertigo, political hilarity, Joan Crawford and drag queens are after the jump...
It's such a shame that we didn't make a Tonya Harding biopic when Amy Adams was young enough to play her. pic.twitter.com/LFKnF52HGk

In SCOTUS POTUS, Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, & Kathy Najimi are summoned to use witchcraft to try to get a nominee hearing. PG-13.

I keep reading Judge Garland as Judy Garland, a much edgier option. #possiblyhallucinating

At the airport, I hear: "Jinkx?" So I turn around and wave. "Don't wave at me like one of your f*cking fans!" So good seeing @JACKIEBEAT

AND FINALLY
Congrats to our new contributor Daniel Walber. His first episode of the series "The Furniture" on The Exorcist (1973) was praised by the classic's director himself on Twitter!
