As Anderson’s career and ambitions have both grown, he’s often returned to shorts and always made them fascinating endeavors, whether in The Darjeeling Limited’s prologue short film, Hotel Chevalier, the Italian film homage of Castello Cavalcanti, and even his brilliant American Express commercial.

Suspected serial killer Rex Heuermann had some surprising acquaintances. It turns out that actor Billy Baldwin, also known as William Baldwin, went to high school with him.

Billy, the second youngest of the four Baldwin brothers, got on Twitter the morning of Heuermann’s arrest to share that he went to the same high school as the then-suspected Gilgo Beach murderer.

“Woke up this morning to learn that the Gilgo Beach serial killer suspect was my high school classmate Rex Heuermann,” Billy wrote.
