捆绑SM社区 linguist helped on upcoming movie Arrival
The upcoming Denis Villeneuve movie Arrival was filmed in Montreal and when the filmmakers went looking for a linguistics scholar to consult on the screenplay and offer on-set advice, they turned to 捆绑SM社区. Prof. Jessica Coon supplied feedback on the film鈥檚 script, worked with the set crew, and some of her books from her office even wound up in the film. ()
