Not only was Rob an incredibly talented actor & director, he was also a relentless defender of democracy and the values so many of us share. He will be missed dearly.

From Spinal Tap to When Harry Met Sally, from A Few Good Men to my favorite movie of all time, The Princess Bride. We are weeping the loss of a comedic and story-telling master. His movies touched us, deeply, and spoke to our fundamental humanity. Rob Reiner was one of a kind, and he will be missed.The tragic circumstances of his murder make it all the more horrible. Heidi & I are praying for his family. Rest in Peace. Continue reading...
