Mark me down as someone who thinks the three hour cut of Margaret is one of the very best films of the decade so far. This is great news.

I have a mixed appreciation for Margaret. It glimpses into brilliance but then seemingly falls out of it just as fast.

Glad that Lonergan won't let his voice be stilled by disappointment. If he's willing to take another swing the audience will be the winner. Every country needs insightful artistic voices like his. Best wishes.

Margaret was a devastating masterpiece, so I'm in like Flint.

I'm delighted to see this. Matt Damon will have an interesting one-two punch next year with this and The Martian, which has a wonderful script. I think Damon doesn't play the insecure self-promotion games of many other actors, who may rise in dramatic fashion, but often fall just as quickly. If he's not obligated to promote a project, he'd rather not be thought about at all. He's in it for the long haul.

I was worried he'd never get out of director jail. Margaret was incredible.
