I just looked up that O’Reilly book on Goodreads, and it seems even worse than you thought, but appropriate for this discussion. Here’s an excerpt from one of the reviews:

Well to be fair it’s, ‘ostentatiously colored cat’, which is accurate, but I probably would’ve gone with ‘fuchsia feline’ or ‘magenta moggie’.

Wrong movie reference.

This maybe even sexier. Same director, same actor.

Which one - Chalamet or Dylan?

‘If you can see past Al Jolson’s predilection for performing in blackface...’ would’ve been a better way of phrasing this idea.

It’s close enough to airtime that they have a practical reason for leaving him out.

And before that, Norman Lloyd first gained attention on stage for playing Cinna the poet, in Orson Welles’ modern dress version of Julius Caesar in 1937.

After In Cold Blood, I think his best film was Electra Glide in Blue (1973). Strange and unforgettable.

Although it has a mixed reputation, and I admit it’s a very mod sixties movie, I’ve always liked the previous Marlowe from 1969. It’s based on an actual Chandler book ( The Little Sister), James Garner’s a pretty cool Marlowe, Rita Moreno features as a stripper and a certain martial artist makes an appearance.

You mean this guy? How does this qualify as news?

But the other Dion made the list.

I should hope so.

At a guess I think they’ve confused Tolkien with Aldous Huxley.

I’m starting to think that Gauloises and black coffee is the secret to longevity. Jeanne Moreau made it to 89, Belmondo 88, Trintignant 91, Rivette 87, Varda 90, Resnais 91. And Delon 86 and Bardot 87 are still with us! Truffaut is one of the few to die young.

Better than “Aunt Flo”.

It’s a perfectly cromulent word.

WB summoned up the ghost of Ned Beatty.

More like they were cursed the moment they hired Zack.
