Happy Birthday, Charles Burnett! May your day be as memorable and timeless as the beautifully poetic scenes you crafted in "Killer of Sheep." Here's hoping that today brings fewer sheep to herd and more cake slices to savor!Your storytelling brilliance shines through films like "To Sleep With Anger," reminding us all never to underestimate a quiet family gathering—especially when Danny Glover shows up. Wishing you another year filled with cinematic magic, laughter behind-the-scenes, and plenty of moments worth capturing on film (or at least worthy enough for an amusing anecdote). Cheers to many more years directing life's greatest hits!
