I’m crying now. This is great Lance Reddick, who passed away too soon yesterday, speaking about his friendship with Keanu Reeves through the John Wick movies. 😭😭😭

Just watched the truly mesmerizing film #AllThatBreathes and am sitting in awe at both the filmmaking and the incredible tale of the two Muslim brothers (Nadeem Shehzad, Mohammad Saud) who’ve dedicated their lives to rescuing kites & other raptors amid the pollution, urban decay, and religious political violence of Delhi.
