Bridget Savage Cole is not Brigette Lundy-Paine

Warning: This post has little to no purpose, other than that I feel like giving my fingers about three minutes of exercise.

Last night I watched the new (not that new) Amazon film House of Spoils, from Blow the Man Down directors Danielle Krudy and Bridget Savage Cole.

But as I was waiting for their names to come up in the credits, all I could think about was that it was Brigette Lundy-Paine who had co-directed the movie.

Likely that was partly because I was conflating the Lundy part of her name with the Krudy part of Danielle's name. But the larger share is that both of those people have a first name of Bridget (with varying spellings) and a two-part last name (one hyphenated) where the first part has one syllable and the second part has two. (The "Savage" might be a middle name. But they both have a two-part "non first name" in their credit.)

Of course, Brigette Lundy-Payne is actually the star of I Saw the TV Glow and Bill and Ted Face the Music, and she looks like this:

Whereas Bridget Savage Cole is an increasingly prominent and accomplished writer-director, who looks like this:

And that's really all I have to say about it.

See? Told you reading this was not worth your time.
