PAULA WEINSTEIN DIES AT 78
The Times has a great obit on Paula Weinstein, the movie producer and political activist who served as the Tribeca Film Festival’s VP and chief content officer for the past decade, leaving just last year to focus on political work. She produced more than 30 movies, with credits including “Analyze This,” “The Perfect Storm,” “Grace and Frankie,” and more. “Our tragedy is also the country’s loss, as she recently left Tribeca to work for political initiatives to preserve our endangered democracy,” Robert De Niro said on the film festival’s website. “I will deeply miss her.”

Crain’s and all the other business rags give me whiplash with the office occupancy reports — one minute it’s taking off, the other minute it’s stagnant — but four years out this seems the most tempered: “The number of New Yorkers commuting to work each week has reached a leveling point, with the city’s offices consistently about 50% as full as they were before the pandemic. The city’s in-office occupancy clocked in at 51.1% for the seven day period ending March 13. That’s down just 0.2% from the week prior and remains within two percentage points of where it has hovered since mid-February. The city reached its post-pandemic peak the week of Feb. 7, when office activity totaled 52.1% of what it was pre-pandemic.”
