Eight Film-y People You Should Follow On Twitter

I love Twitter. It's like Red Bull for the ego. And it's particularly great for ensnaring the random burbling of various film-type people, as well. Here are eight that may be worth your attention.

• @johnaugust - the screenwriter of the brilliant "Go", as well as the brain-twisting "The Nines" (which he also directed), and - um - the "Charlie's Angels" movies. Frequently provides updates related to his rather ace writing blog, too.

• @diablocody - another screenwriter (who'd have thunk they made good tweeters?), this time behind the Oscar-winning "Juno" and the - dare I say it - under-rated "Jennifer's Body."
  

• @LWlies - updates from the UK's best movie magazine, including heads-ups about Q&A's, screenings and their latest reviews.

• @wittertainment - the official feed for Simon Mayo and Mark Kermode's radio film show, currently airing on Radio 5 at 2pm on a Friday.

• @devincf - currently the head writer for CHUD.com. Comes complete with a refreshingly-snarky honesty that most line-toeing web critics daren't utter.

• @jrichardkelly - he wrote and directed "Donnie Darko", you know. And "Southland Tales."

• @ebertchicago - quite possibly our greatest living film critic. Tweets range from focused to bafflingly eccentric.

• @david_lynch - look! He really is bonkers! In quite a brilliant way!

Of course, you can just shrug off all these people and follow me instead - @nethknowles - because I'm funnier than your crazy uncle at your sister's wedding.
