Actor Andrew Garfield is very grateful for the time he had with his dying mother. He read her poetry and after each one - he’d ask her “again, another or quiet.” He says he has “borrowed grief” for all the people who did not have the same opportunity as he had - to be with their mother at the end of her life in such a rich way.

My old apartment is completely empty ex for an almost empty bottle of Windex. It’s been less than a week since I left it and now it’s unlocked. I like to go down and visit. There’s something strange and special about an empty apartment. Besides the echo - it evokes a number of things for me. The past, the future, quietude, melancholy, loss, Last Tango in Paris - where Brando and the young French sexpot both check out a beautiful empty apartment and I think Brando rents it and they meet there and have wild sex and he makes her promise to never say or tell him her name and vice versa and it's such a wild fantasy, two nameless people flooring it again and again for good or bad underneath a night skyway in the City of Lights.
Lovely
