Quote of the Day

"Once I saw Tilda at JFK at the baggage claim, and her just standing there was one of the most beautiful, powerful sights I have ever seen. I just plainly stared at her. It looked like she was on an ice slab, just, like, leading soldiers into a battle."

--- That's the ever awesome Amy Schumer paying tribute to Tilda Swinton at the Gotham Awards last night, and I guess there's not video of the speech but IndieWire transcribed the entire thing and it's wonderful, go read it. I've never hung out with Tilda, sadly, as Amy talks about, but I have been in her presence several times for movie Q&As (one time just two days ago, in fact) and judging from those experiences every word Amy says seems to be true. Listening to her speak, being in her presence, is like motherfucking chicken soup for the soul. ETA The video's arrived!
