Donald Sutherland 1935 – 2024 I had the honor and privilege of working with Donald Sutherland on three occasions. The first was when he so brilliantly portrayed the deranged, psychopathic arsonist Ronald in the Ron Howard’s Backdraft. The second was 20 weeks on the Universal sci-fi thriller Virus with Jamie Lee Curtis. The third, and by far my favorite, was when he played my father and patriarch of the Darling family… Tripp Darling on the short lived but wonderful ABC hit Dirty, Sexy, Money. Donald was a complex, complicated and quirky man in the most delicious way. He had a gentle, childlike boyish streak in him that I absolutely adored. His persona on screen and his personality in life were as interesting and original as the features of his remarkable face. He was a true original. A one of a kind. I have never known anyone remotely like him. His many incredible qualities and somehow even his flaws made him more unique, more charming… more lovable. I remember one day we were coming out of the DSM table reading and Donald had this big smile on his face and bounce in his step and said to me… “Look at this… read this.” He proceeded to hand me his script and I read a scene that had lots of snappy, brilliant Craig Wright/ Tripp Darling dialogue in it. He said to me… “Can you believe that? Can you believe I get to say that… how wonderful.” It was so sweet and so exhilarating for me to see how excited he still was about the work at 73 years old. I played his eldest son Patrick on Dirty, Sexy, Money and we had gotten so close during the two seasons we worked together that he once said to me… “I have affection for you as if you were one of my sons.” That meant to the world to me and I will never forget that. There will never be another Donald Sutherland… ever. We have lost a true acting master and a quirky, one of a kind, never met anyone like him before original. My condolences to Francine, Rossif, Angus, Roeg, Kiefer and Rachel. He will be dearly missed.
Just had a funny experience at a radio station in Sacramento: Woman meant to say… “You’ve always been my favorite Baldwin brother.” What came out of her mouth was… “You’ve almost been my favorite Baldwin brother.” #ToughCrowd 🤪
She’s everywhere and I love it. ♥️

On the Red Carpet Oscar weekend with my son Vance to attend the Night Before Party benefiting for the Motion Picture & Television Fund. It was the first “Hollywood” event that I’ve taken any of my children to since the premiere of The Cat in the Hat back in 2003. Saw so many old friends… we had such a blast !!! The Motion Picture & Television Fund (MPTF) is a charitable organization that offers assistance and care to those in the motion picture and television industries and their families with limited or no resources, including services such as temporary financial assistance, case management, and residential living. Special thanks to the fabulous Andrew Weitz @andrewweitz and the wonderful #isaiabh @isaia ♥️

This is Mission Creek. This creek is normally dry. It runs between our property and Rocky Nook Park… maybe 200 hundred feet from our home. Thank you Santa Barbara and all of California First Responders… the best in the whole damn world. ♥️
