I was very sad to hear about the death of Nora Ephron, and very touched to see all the collective love for her work. I love this article by Lena Dunham on her relationship with Nora over the last year and a half.
This past week, the elevator in my new building both flooded and caught on fire, so an extra doorman had to be hired to carry elderly women up the stairs. I think Nora would find this funny and strange and awful. Every sweaty step I take to get to the sixth floor I hear her name like a mantra.

What’s your favorite Nora Ephron movie? I think mine must be Julie & Julia and Sleepless in Seattle. And after reading Lena’s article I’m dying to see This is My Life.
