Last year, I discovered that Curtis Hanson had retired because of Alzheimers. It sounds rather tragic that his career ended up this way.

"Re-watch - Dec. 12th I'd completely forgotten this is set in Pittsburgh. What can I say about Wonder Boys? I love the cast, the characters, and the story and it's such a good film I'm surprised I've only seen it twice now. "
