“I just saw US; the latest film from Jordan Peele. It’s a brilliant allegory for how we, as humans (and especially artists), get in our own way. There’s forever a demon on our shoulder telling us we’re not good enough, attractive enough, tall enough, short enough, bookable enough and we let that “other” side, the fear based side, win. John has a finely tuned, innate ability to cut ourselves from ourselves and let our individualism approach the scene.

The demons will always be there. John has a way of giving them less agency. ”

— Christian Lloyd
