Other collateral sessions in the form of master classes by leading directors, actors and screen writers such as Vishal Bharadwaj, Tisca Chopra, Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra, panel discussions involving film scholars, film journalists & critics, daily podcasts and newsletters, will infuse the festival with an exciting dose of contemporaneity. Post-screening Q & A sessions with directors are sure to bring out finer nuances.
A notable highlight is Gulzar’s session on 20th May in which he will be in conversation with Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra.
The festival will be inaugurated by film scholar par excellence, ArunaVasudev, Founder/President of the Network for the Promotion of Asian Cinema who is revered for her pioneering contributions in carving out an undeniable space for Asian Cinema in the global film circuit, seeding multiple independent film festivals, institutions and scholarly endeavours. Bina Paul, Artistic Director of the International Film Festival of Kerala, will be in conversation with Aruna Vasudev on the opening day (17th May at 6:30pm at the Stein Auditorium).
Fast paced preparations are underway at IHC as organisers anticipate a resurgent interest in the regional language content. They point to many regional language industries at the cusp of radical shifts and transformation creating a new pan Indian audience eager to immerse and engage. A fact pointed out by the 2018 Jury head of National Film Awards, Shekhar Kapur, whose surprise and admiration for this new wave in regional cinema came to light at the recent national awards announcement day. He even mentioned in a lighter vein how regional cinema has so clearly affirmed its dominance over the Bollywood idiom with layered storytelling and deeply moving performances, and announced his return to making films in India. This year, some of the most coveted national awards were unequivocally bagged by films in Malayalam, Marathi, Bengali, Assamese etc.
A firm milestone now with a run of twelve years behind it, the Habitat Film Festival has become the Capital's coveted showcase for the Best of Pan Indian Cinema. The package of films in the Festival is a one of its kind opportunity, to soak in the wealth of the creative outpourings of the country's leading talent.
The focus of the Festival remains unchanged, in its single minded focus to turn the spotlight on cinema from India that is beyond the brouhaha and blaze of mainstream Bollywood. Films, that are directorial debuts, new works of brilliance from old masters, classic archival restorations, controversial, irreverent, path breaking, retelling a tale or a fantastical work of utopian yearning. They rub shoulders at the Festival for their distinction in one or all the varied skill and craft that goes into creating the magic that is cinema.

A video art piece I created that was shown at Hauser and Wirth NYC and The International Center for Photography in NYC.
For Portrait Landscape, I wrote software that uses computer vision to find faces in Michelangelo Antonioni's movie Blow-Up (1966). The software often misrecognizes faces, finding them in a field of grass, for example, or in the folds of someone’s clothes.
I used Blow Up as my source material because the main character of the film, who is trying to solve a murder he inadvertently photographed, is not unlike the autonomous software agents that now scour the Internet, indexing images. He is a kind of automaton, always on the move; constantly snapping photos, leaving abruptly, jumping and running. He keeps zooming into the pictures he’s taken, frustrated that they don’t solve anything. There’s something in the futility of the protagonist’s search that parallels the futility of my software’s search for faces in the film.
The scenes selected themselves in a sense. I had my software make a cut in the film anytime there was a face recognized in the scene. I then used editing software to pan and zoom in on the misrecognized faces to draw attention to them. The film is cut down to about ten minutes and only features scenes with the misrecognized faces, giving it a humorous and haunting effect.


It has been a wild week for the inventory market, with novice merchants from Reddit’s r/WallStreetBets subreddit battling conventional traders. The previous a number of days have been stuffed with large swings in shares like GameStop and AMC and app-fueled drama that’s sparked a bigger debate over the character of Wall Avenue as an entire.
However in case you had been hoping to relax this weekend, calm down, and revel in a basic enterprise film about shark-like traders and over-confident Wall Avenue executives, you’re most likely out of luck. Practically each main finance movie isn’t obtainable to stream proper now within the US (no less than, not on the time of publication of this text), due to the capricious nature of the streaming market, the more and more fragmented libraries of studios, and the byzantine licensing offers that regulate what you may stream and the place.
This week’s quick inventory drama have you ever hankering for The Massive Brief? You received’t discover it on Netflix, Hulu, or HBO Max. Proper now, you can stream it with advertisements on Crackle, of all companies. Paramount (which distributed the movie) is perhaps saving it for Paramount Plus, which is set to launch in March, however that received’t do you any good this weekend. As a substitute, your solely possibility is to purchase or hire it — which, it appears, many individuals are doing, on condition that the movie has shot to the No. 3 spot on iTunes.
Possibly the ups and downs of the inventory market reminded you extra of Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Avenue, chronicling the rise and fall of investor Jordan Belfort. However the Paramount movie is nowhere to be discovered on any streaming platform. So until you’re prepared to pony up some precise money to purchase or hire the movie (which, like The Massive Brief, is capturing up rental charts), you received’t be having fun with Leonardo DiCaprio’s profanity-fueled chest-thumping both. The identical applies to 2000’s Boiler Room, which can be absent from any streaming service.
20th Century Fox’s Wall Avenue is — predictably — not on Disney Plus to stream, but it surely’s additionally not obtainable on Hulu or every other service. If you’re on the lookout for a monetary movie to look at this weekend, although, the sequel, Wall Avenue: Cash By no means Sleeps, is on Amazon Prime. There’s additionally Margin Name, which is streaming on Peacock (for now).
However the dearth of basic Wall Avenue movies isn’t a novel subject. It’s one which streaming companies have been grappling with lately, as huge gamers like Netflix and Hulu have been much less encompassing and streaming companies have centered extra on increase libraries of unique content material. There was the same subject in the course of the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, when tens of millions of viewers trying to watch Steven Soderbergh’s 2011 movie Contagion had been pissed off that the film wasn’t available to stream anywhere.
The truth that iconic Wall Avenue movies will equally miss the massive second round bold traders and skeevy quick promoting is indicative of an even bigger downside with streaming in 2021, one that can doubtless proceed to worsen as an increasing number of studios proceed to reclaim their content material for their very own companies.
Then once more, it’s virtually becoming that the one method to watch The Wolf of Wall Avenue or The Massive Brief this weekend is to pay slightly further money again into the massive monetary machine.

Push is a sci-fi thriller that came out on DVD last week, starring Chris Evans and Dakota Fanning, 111 minutes, and rated PG-13 for "intense sequences of violence and action, brief strong language, smoking and a scene of teen drinking." It's a superhero movie that's not based on a comic book, and it's awesome!
I kind of envision Push as what a DC version of X-Men might be. Similar powers and stuff, but less political and more action-oriented. It follows the recent (awesome) trend of being a grittier, more realistic superhero movie. It's not as stylized and predictable as people usually envision superheroes. The heroes have some of the classic powers, like telekinesis, but there are also some new powers I'd never seen before.
While it isn't "stylized," it is very stylish. It doesn't take place in New York! It happens in Hong Kong, and to me it looks like the costuming and cinematography are influenced by that as well. Not enough to be confusing, just enough to be new and interesting. The plot has a lot of classic tropes thrown in, done very stylishly of course, and combined with the new powers and story it creates a great balance of expectations fulfilled and expectations turned around.
The characters are great. They're just so themselves, they might be "types" like the precocious kid or the evil government agent, but they're so like real people that it doesn't matter. I especially loved how all the "I wish that character had more scenes" throwaway characters came back for more scenes! I was especially impressed with Dakota Fanning's acting. I knew she was going to do "pottymouthed kid who's older than Fanning's stereotype," but I didn't think she was going to do it well or believably.
The only thing I will mention as a warning was that some story elements weren't clear, like who was working for who in some cases. Just make sure you're paying attention and it won't be a big deal.
There's not much else I can say without giving spoilers, so just go watch the movie. I recommend it especially to fans of X-Men or Jumper.

The Secwépemc Child and Family Services Agency (SCFSA) is hosting a screening of the film “For Love” at the Paramount in Kamloops on Wednesday, May 11, at 7 p.m.
Tickets will be $15, with $1 going to Kamloops Film Society and all subsequent profits going to Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc — Le Estcwicwéy (The Missing).
Tickets will be available at the door and online: https://www.thekfs.ca/movie/6512/
The event will feature appearances by director, co-writer and co-producer Matt Smiley, as well as co-writer and co-producer Mary Teegee.
The film, which is narrated by Shania Twain, exposes the link between residential schools and the 29,000 Indigenous children and youth in Canada’s child welfare system.
“The horrors of residential schools are finally starting to be understood by non-Indigenous Canadians and Americans,” says producer Mary Teegee. “I wanted this movie to create awareness about the generational trauma caused by residential schools. But it also celebrates the resilience of our people, and shows how communities across the country are rebuilding family connections and rich cultures.”
MEDIA AVAILABILITY: Both Matt Smiley (firstname.lastname@example.org) and Mary Teegee (email@example.com) will be available for interviews before the screening.


Oscar season is upon us. In just a little over two weeks, the Hollywood megaliths will gather at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles to decide the best picture of the year at the 91st Academy Awards. One of the surprise nominations comes in the form of the Marvel Studios produced superhero film, Black Panther. The film is comprised of all the elements that we would expect in a Marvel film: fast paced action, good inevitably triumphing over evil, and a protagonist motivated by a sense of duty to save the world. But the film is more than just a comic book flick, it’s actually a metaphor for the historical regality in black culture and its progression over time. Clad with a villain mired in identity issues and supporting characters that make up the rest of the “panthers”, the film inspires feelings of camaraderie and a nostalgia for the actual civil rights Black Panthers group that most Americans have seen in their school history books.
The primary obstacle that Black Panther faces at the Oscars is that it is a child of the superhero genre, that’s it, the sole reason why Academy voters might not consider it a proper “film”. Of all the arguments against crowning a superhero film best picture, foremost is the repetitive nature of most of these films. Rarely is the plot fresh and the characters usually maintain the same goals and worldviews, but this isn’t the case for Black Panther. Bolstered by Michael B. Jordan’s performance as Erik Killmonger, the film transcends “movies” and enters the realm of psychology. Who are we? Where are we truly from? Perhaps the most brilliant scene in the film focuses on Killmonger receiving a lecture on a headdress at a British museum. The headdress belongs to Killmonger’s native Wakandan people, however, the museum curator has wrongly attributed the origins of the headdress to another tribe in Benin. It’s an instant of pure cinematic gold, complete with subtle acting and inflection that Jordan drives home perfectly as he stares at the artifact through a glass encasing (Killmonger’s reflection is deliberately included in the shot). Cultural appropriation, artifact curation, and nationalistic pride, all brilliantly captured in a few mere seconds.
Will Black Panther win the big award at the Oscars? Probably not. But if there’s ever been a superhero film, in fact, if there’s any film that deserves to win the award this year, it’s Black Panther.


Now, Arc System Works and Bandai Namco Entertainment launched a new personality preview for Dragon Ball FighterZ, which will be coming into PC, PS4, along with Xbox One later this season. This video focuses on Beerus, a personality who started out as a villain in a movie along with Dragon Ball Super but went on to become a supportive character.
As I mentioned before, Beerus first appeared in the movie Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods within an antagonist. This movie was adapted into one of the start sagas of Dragon Ball Super; Beerus afterwards became a staple of that new series, eventually transitioning from the use of antagonist to that of a supporting character.
In Dragon Ball FighterZ, Beerus appears like he may develop into a rather annoying character with lots of projectile strikes. Beerus could spawn multiple power orbs about him which may be utilized in various methods against opponents. If you want to find the personality in action to get a bit longer, you can have a look at a newly released personality breakdown video where Perfect Legend goes on exactly what his character could perform.
You may have a look at the character preview for Beerus below.


By Ryan Davis -
Last January, I found myself in filmmaker heaven. I was in a beautiful, top-of-the-line cinema, watching world-class short films, surrounded by bold and welcoming women and non-binary filmmakers and our allies.
What was this amazing event? It was the first-ever Coven Film Festival, held at the New People Cinema in San Francisco. And the best part: it will be back! Coven returns January 10-12, 2020, for three days of films and special events.
Coven was founded by filmmaker/producer Cameo Wood, filmmaker/actor Connie Jo Sechrist, and entrepreneur/Tanji CEO Melinda Fox, with the mission to amplify the fantastic work being done by women and non-binary filmmakers. The founders didn’t just want show the films, they wanted to put them in front of industry representatives and tastemakers who could truly boost the filmmakers’ careers.
The weekend included ample networking opportunities where I actually got to know other filmmakers and industry people — rather than just exchange a quick business card and move along. I was really able to discuss the challenges and opportunities in the filmmaking world, and hear the unique struggles that other women and non-binary creators faced.
The best part was that Coven was designed so you didn’t have to miss out on anything. You could watch ALL the films, go to ALL the panels, and not miss a single party. This made the festival feel almost like a sleepover party — except with top notch catering, classy sponsors, and a hip location.
I’ve already made arrangements to attend Coven this coming January. And if you are also a filmmaker, it’s not too late to submit! Read more and get involved at https://www.covenfilmfest.com.

Blah blah, Emmy nominations.
This week, we check up on how Being Erica's third season is going, we wonder why 90210 has gotten so ridiculous (and remember some of our favourite moments from the original Beverly Hills, 90210), we look at the latest episode of How I Met Your Mother, and try to remember all of the disasters of Desperate Housewives.
Kat and Jeevan love to hate The Real World: New Orleans, plus they make their predictions for this week's Television Critics Association Awards.
Up this week: the lack of summer TV forces Kat and Jeevan to tune in to Degrassi, but True Blood continues to delight us.
Up this week: we talk about the ambiguous finale of The Hills, the rampant stupidity on Big Brother and the surprising competence of Rookie Blue.
The 2010 Emmy nominations have been announced, and Kat and Jeevan discuss all of the surprises, from the nominations we loved to the snubs we hated.
This week: The Hard Times of RJ Berger is gross, The Bachelorette is embarrassing, and the season finale of Breaking Bad blows our minds.
Up this week: Persons Unknown is intriguing but still kind of stupid, Breaking Bad gets even better than it was already, and Pretty Little Liars promises to be the fun summer show we've been waiting for.
This week, summer TV is painfully bad, with both 100 Questions and The Bachelorette offending us.
Deconstructing the Lost series finale, including the parts that made us cry and the parts that made us go "huh?"

Get Vegucated: Summary of the Vegucated Documentary
The movie describes itself as a “guerilla-style documentary”. It follows the path of three cheese- and meet-loving residents of New York for six weeks as they explore vegetarian and vegan options of living.
Their original motivation may have been to lose weight or regain their health, but they soon discover the global implications of not eating meat and avoiding animal products. The “secret” side of agriculture, as exposed by movies such as Food, Inc make them wonder if the real answer is a step beyond what is explained.
It doesn’t take long before the three guinea pigs find themselves at odds with the meat and animal food industry they supported just weeks before. It’s certainly true that knowledge can change lives, and this is certainly what is happening here.
As many life-long vegetarians and vegans know, it’s a lot easier following these paths in the comfort of your own home. You soon find the right places to shop and avoid the wrong. But what happens when you go away? How do parents and relatives figure in your vegan plans? What about eating out? Breakfast buffets, “secret” and hidden ingredients, and so on?
Vegucated has a lot of laughs and comedy is a big part of the movie, but behind the laughs there’s a social documentary screaming to get out. Enjoy three people’s struggle as they attempt to come top terms with their ethics, their emotions and their struggle to eat the right things. Maybe the time has come for all of us to “Get Vegucated”!

Last week I invited my crocheting friend Brittanny of Loops and Bounds Co. to join me at a local screening of the film “YARN” in Atlanta. It was a morning filled with fiber friends, free giveaways and a really great film.
The Atlanta Knitting Guild hosted the screening at a local movie theater, and they went all out to make sure everyone had a great time. Thanks for such a fun experience!
I’ve never seen so many people excited to talk about and watch a movie about yarn. There were beautiful handknit scarves and sweaters everywhere I looked. And the patterns were unlike many that I’ve seen, like this one called “Fox Paws.”
“YARN” is a movie from Una Lorenzen, Heather Millard and Thordur Jonsson. It follows four artists who are redefining knitting, crochet and traditional views of how use yarn.
Take a look at the trailer for the film:
I loved everything about this film. The colors, the artistic effects, the narration, the artists … everything.
It starts with narration from writer Barbara Kingsolver about the joy of yarn, knitting, and all it encompasses.
And in spite of their various natures, all these strings can be lured to sit down together and play a fiber concerto whole in the cloth. – Barbara Kingsolver
The animation of yarn strings dancing across the screen paired with these words from Kingsolver was absolutely my favorite part about the entire film. I could watch those scenes every day.
But the artists featured in the film were the focus, and the filmmakers told their stories in beautiful ways.
Tinna Þórudóttir Þorvaldsdóttir appeared first on screen in Iceland. She’s a yarnbomber, and throughout the film you follow her from windy, sheep-filled Iceland to Spain and then to Cuba. Her perspective on women and knitting is inspiring.
Toshiko Horiuchi MacAdam is a textile artist from Japan who began crocheting playground sculptures for children in the ’70s. “YARN” followed her to one of her installations at an Italian museum where kids could swing, climb and jump within her crocheted structure.
Tilde Björfors and Cirkus Cirkör looked at yarn as more of a metaphor for life’s entanglements and struggles. The acrobats in the performance had really interesting perspectives on how they portray those ideas in the show — and the acrobatics were just plain cool to watch 🙂
OLEK is a crochet artist taking her own path into the art world. Her scenes had the most laughter and reaction from the movie screening crowd because she was just so fun to watch. She crocheted entire body suits for friends and set them free into the city streets, covered an entire locomotive in yarn, and crafted a mermaid tail for a swimmer and took it straight to the ocean.
And because Atlanta Knitting Guild is so amazing, check out the stash of free patterns and yarn I came away with!
I love this mohair pattern book that was included, but alas, looks like I need to learn German to read any of the patterns.
This Saturday morning was one that knitters and crocheters dream about — a chance to spend time with other yarn lovers, meet up with new fiber friends (hi, Brittanny!), and get to know my local knitting guild. I’m really interested in learning more about the guild, and I wouldn’t have really known about them without this fun experience.
You can stream “YARN” online a few different ways, or see if it’s coming to a theater near you.
And you can read Barbara Kingsolver’s incredible essay here.

It’s a reasonably darkish time within the film business in the intervening time. The rise of the streaming period, mixed with the Covid-19 pandemic, has brought on an enormous decline in individuals going to theaters. Many popular culture movie followers at the moment are wanting again to a decade when it appeared nice films have been coming to theaters each single week. Yep, we’re speaking in regards to the Nineteen Eighties. However in that flood of movies, what have been the most effective 80s films, and what streaming providers have them obtainable for anybody to look at anyplace and at any time they need?

Remember that many of those movies change streaming providers every so often, so we are going to replace this text when that occurs.
Finest 80s films
Raiders of the Misplaced Ark
Director Steven Spielberg wanted a giant hit following the essential and field workplace bomb 1941, launched in 1979. He determined to work with one other massive film maker on the time, George Lucas of the Star Wars franchise, to create a brand new motion hero and a film that was largely impressed by the Saturday afternoon film serials that have been fashionable within the Nineteen Thirties and Nineteen Forties. What they got here up with was this 1981 basic starring Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones.
Set in 1936, the movie is an nearly continuous motion journey, as Jones, the courageous however nonetheless considerably weak archaeologist tries to take the Ark of the Covenant away from the Nazis, who need it for his or her nefarious ends. There’s numerous humor, and a few nice motion set items, and Ford is ideal as this gruff hero who’s all the time, as he stated, “…. making it up as I am going” to the most effective impact. That is positively top-of-the-line 80s films to check out first.
Paramount Plus consists of hundreds of flicks and TV exhibits from CBS, Showtime, and Paramount Footage. It additionally consists of new and authentic films like The Good Battle, Infinite, and extra.
James Cameron solely directed one film earlier than this 1984 movie, however the sci-fi motion movie immediately made him a serious cinema creator. It additionally turned Arnold Schwarzenegger from an actor who might solely play Conan The Barbarian into one that would play way more roles. His portrayal of the cyborg title character, who has to kill the mom of the human resistance in a future run by the evil AI Skynet, is ideal, and Cameron helps him with a decent story, some spectacular Terminator results, and a few attention-grabbing story twists.
Showtime affords up nice films and a number of the finest and most modern authentic TV exhibits, and you may get all of that for a low month-to-month value.
Tom Cruise was already a serious star together with his roles in different fashionable 80s films like Dangerous Enterprise and Prime Gun. Nevertheless, his profession went as much as one other stage with this 1988 film, which received the Oscar for Finest Image that 12 months. Cruise performs Charlie Babbitt, who found after his father died that he has an autistic older brother with a expertise for math, Ray, performed by Dustin Hoffman. The 2 brothers attempt to get to know one another on a street journey that adjustments each their lives endlessly. Hoffman received the Oscar for Finest Actor for his efficiency on this movie, which has impressed many homages and parodies.
HBO Max is your own home for Warner Bros-made films and TV exhibits like The Lord of the Rings, the DC Comics superheroes, and extra. It is also the house for brand spanking new and authentic films and exhibits obtainable nowhere else.
Again to the Future
This 1985 movie got here out of nowhere to grow to be probably the most beloved and finest 80s films. Michael J. Fox grew to become a star together with his position as Marty McFly, a teen who inadvertently goes again in time 30 years after which interferes with how his mother and pop met as youngsters. Can he set issues proper earlier than he and his household disappear from existence? Christoper Lloyd provides the efficiency of his life as Emmett “Doc” Brown, who created the time machine that sends Marty again to 1955. He additionally performs his youthful self, who has to assist Marty return to the long run (roll credit). Whereas the 2 sequels of this film are excellent as effectively, nothing actually beats the unique.
NBCUniversal’s Peacock streaming service affords loads of nice films and TV exhibits to stream on demand, together with reside information and sports activities. Better of all, you’ll be able to watch numerous its content material totally free, or watch all of it with a paid subscription beginning at simply $4.99 a month.
Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Again
After Star Wars grew to become an enormous pop culture-changing hit in 1977, followers puzzled if the sequel might come near the unique by way of high quality. Fortunately, that was by no means a difficulty with this 1980 film, thanks in no small half to the director Irvin Kershner. He helped give The Empire Strikes Again some human depth in comparison with Star Wars, whereas producer and co-writer George Lucas contributed the remaining: the snow battle on Hoth, the brand new Jedi mentor Yoda, and a few new relationships between the primary characters that have been very sudden on the time. Certainly, a serious revelation close to the top of the film will nonetheless shock anybody who has by no means seen the film earlier than.
Disney Plus bundle
Stephen King could not like this adaptation of his novel by director Stanley Kubrick, however most everybody else loves it. The 1980 movie stars Jack Nicholson as a author who takes a job to look at over a snow-bound lodge whereas it’s closed for the winter. Nevertheless, this lodge has numerous ghosts, and never the great type, that trigger Jack to go slowly loopy, and likewise trigger his son Danny, who has psychic powers, to see terrors of his personal. Kubrick’s visible fashion is ideal for this type of haunted home movie, with numerous stress and terror constructing to a climactic finish within the closing minutes.
Is that this film the best motion movie of all time? This 1988 film actually has some nice motion sequences, however it’s elevated past the typical motion movie because of Bruce Willis, Alan Rickman, and plenty of different actors who give Die Laborious its human high quality. Willis, in fact, performs NYPD detective John McCane, who’s come to Los Angeles within the hopes of reconciling together with his estranged spouse.
All of that’s placed on maintain when she and the opposite staff of the wealthy Japanese firm she works for are taken hostage on Christmas Eve by Rickman’s Hans Gruber and his crew of thieves. Now McCane has to rescue his spouse and the opposite individuals within the firm’s large skyscraper whereas additionally coping with all of the regulation enforcement companies, and an smug TV reporter, on the skin. And sure, this can be a Christmas film, together with top-of-the-line 80s films.
Starz affords hundreds of flicks and TV exhibits to stream, together with acclaimed unique authentic TV sequence.
Subject of Desires
This 1989 film is often seen as a sports activities movie. Nevertheless, the actual theme of this film is about second possibilities in life. Kevin Costner performs a person who owns an Iowa farm that’s in monetary hassle, When he hears a mysterious voice asking him to construct a baseball discipline in his yard, he does so. Quickly, the once-deceased members of the disgraced 1919 Chicago White Sox baseball crew seem on his baseball discipline. These ghosts simply wish to play the sport yet another time, and that leads this film into themes of redemption for not solely the ghosts but additionally the dwelling human characters as effectively.
This idea for a film shouldn’t have labored. A Detroit police officer who will get murdered horribly by a gang of thugs is introduced again as a cyborg cop. It’s acquired a foolish premise, however director Paul Verhoeven makes use of this story as a manner to usher in tons of themes, together with the rise of the company world, the concepts of demise and resurrection, and what it actually means to be human. Peter Weller does a implausible job enjoying Robocop, who slowly begins to regain his humanity inside his steel shell. Oh, and this film’s humor and satirical tones are unmatched.
Beverly Hills Cop
There’s no yet another good for enjoying the primary position on this 1984 film than Eddie Murphy. Satirically, he doesn’t truly play a Beverly Hills cop. Murphy’s Axel Foley performs a Detroit cop who goes to Beverly Hills, California, to seek out out why his long-time buddy was murdered. This film works each as a hilarious comedy and a strong police motion movie, with Foley appearing as a fish out of water who all the time appears to be a step forward of the residents of this wealthy and uptight metropolis. We simply hope that the upcoming 2023 revival of this franchise on Netflix is half pretty much as good as the unique.
Nobody thought anybody might make a worthy sequel to the 1979 sci-fi horror movie Alien. Additionally, some individuals might need assumed James Cameron was a one-trick director after his success with The Terminator. Fortunately, each of those assumptions have been flawed. The 1986 film continues to be scary, however Cameron determined to make Aliens right into a struggle film.
The affect of the actual Vietnam Struggle is obvious on this film, because the Colonial Marines could also be packing some heavy weapons, however the troopers are utterly unprepared for the xenomorphs they encounter. Sigourney Weaver returns as Ripley, turning into one of many first true feminine motion heroes as she tries to rescue the younger woman that’s the only real survivor of this alien-infested planet. The ultimate battle between Ripley and the alien queen is without doubt one of the finest film finish sequences ever.
Al Pacino goes full bore into his position as Tony Montana, a Cuban immigrant who involves the US to make his fortune. Sadly, he makes his desires come true by turning into a serious cocaine seller, and whereas he will get richer and extra highly effective, he slowly turns into extra of a goal for a lot of rivals and for regulation enforcement as effectively. Pacino’s efficiency could also be broad, nevertheless it’s wanted on this 1983 film, which exhibits the rise and fall of a drug overlord spectacularly. Certainly, you’ll be saying good day to his little buddy and like it.
De Laurentiis Leisure Group
After the business and field workplace failure of the massive funds sci-fi movie Dune, director David Lynch simply wished to return to creating smaller movies. He acquired his want with this 1986 film, which reestablished him as a darkish however quirky filmmaker. Lynchy introduced again the star of Dune, Kyle MacLachlan, for this film as effectively, as his character will get concerned with some darkish prison conspiracies in his small city after discovering a severed ear. In a manner, this film is a little bit little bit of a trial run for what could also be Lynch’s best effort, the TV present Twin Peaks, which additionally had comparable themes of darkness operating beneath a small city.
The thought of mashing up comedy with high-end particular results was put to the final word check on this 1984 basic. A crew of paranormal investigators decides to make a enterprise taking out ghosts and grow to be slightly profitable in New York Metropolis. Nevertheless, they quickly be taught that the rising quantity of ghosts to bust is tied to the deliberate resurrection of an historical god. Invoice Murray is ideal as Peter Venkman, a person who believes in ghosts however doesn’t take them too critically. Dan Aykroyd can be nice because the ghostbuster with probably the most background information of spirits, and the late Harold Ramis is great as probably the most stoic and scientifically minded member of the group.
AMC Plus affords ad-free on-demand entry to the library of exhibits and flicks from the AMC Networks household of cable TV and streaming providers.
The Breakfast Membership
Author-director John Hughes made a ton of flicks within the Nineteen Eighties, and plenty of of them may very well be on this record, like Sixteen Candles, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, and Bizarre Science. Nevertheless, this 1985 teen dramedy could also be his finest. 5 teenagers are despatched to detention at their native college on a Saturday, and through that point they be taught extra about themselves and one another than they ever would throughout a traditional college day. This film is humorous, unhappy, and eventually a bit uplifting as effectively.
Is there any film on this record that has as many laughs as this 1980 basic? We predict not. This spoof of catastrophe movies is basically based mostly, typically phrase for phrase, on the 1957 film Zero Hour. The essential plot, about an ex-pilot who has to enter the cockpit of an airliner after the flight crew turns into incapacitated, is simply an excuse to throw out one joke and one sketch after one other. Not like a lot of the spoof films which have come after this movie, the jokes are principally humorous and stay so many years later. Absolutely you’ll be quoting traces from Airplane always after you end this movie (and don’t name me Shirley).
That is Spinal Faucet
This 1984 film is one other type of spoof, however yet another grounded in actuality. This “mockumentary” follows the lives of Spinal Faucet, a bunch of onerous rock musicians that have been as soon as massively fashionable, however have now fallen on onerous instances. Rob Reiner, in his function movie directorial debut, additionally performs the fictional director of the fictional documentary of Spinal Faucet, because the band members slowly begin to understand that maybe they don’t seem to be the nice musicians that they beforehand thought. Whereas the film is scripted, there’s loads of improvisation, which provides it its dose of actuality, and oddly makes it funnier to look at.
After making Pee Wee’s Large Journey, director Tim Burton confirmed Hollywood what he might actually do with an authentic concept on this 1988 horror comedy. The homeowners of a home in a small city are killed however return to their home as ghosts. When the home’s new homeowners begin redecorating in their very own fashion, the couple attempt to scare them out of the place, to no impact. That’s when the title character, performed completely by Michael Keaton, is summoned by saying his title 3 times. Because it seems, that was a foul mistake on their half.
Burton’s signature artwork and visible fashion are evident right here, with a darkish and cartoony look that’s unmistakable. It additionally helps that the story is humorous, and the actors, particularly Keaton, are in prime kind.
The Princess Bride
Director Rob Reiner returns for this 1987 fantasy movie, with a framing sequence of a grandfather studying his grandson the story of the identical title. The story of a princess and a commoner falling in love has been advised many instances, nevertheless it’s by no means been advised like this, with humor and coronary heart. The film manages to each make enjoyable of and use fantasy and fairy story tropes to nice impact, and the performances are additionally terrific, led by Robin Wright as Princess Buttercup, Cary Elwes because the hero Westley, and particularly Mandy Patinkin as Inigo Montoya, the grasp swordsman that’s in search of the person that kills his father. For sure, the scene when that truly occurs is the whole lot you hoped it will be.
It’s onerous to consider this 1982 sci-fi movie that has grow to be so beloved and so influential was a field workplace bomb and significant disappointment when it was first launched in theaters. Now, it’s thought of top-of-the-line 80s films and top-of-the-line sci-fi films of all time. Harrison Ford performs a former “blade runner” on this future model of Los Angeles, the place human-looking androids referred to as replicants inhabit a world in house however can not legally come to Earth. Ford has to hunt and kill a bunch of replicants who’ve escaped. He quickly learns there’s extra to those androids than meets the attention.
Director Ridley Scott makes the long run LA of 2019 (yep, that’s not a typo) look darkish with numerous neon, good for this darkish story about what it means to be a human. The model of the film we’re linking to is The Last Reduce, which ditches the horrible narration from Ford’s character that’s within the authentic film.
E.T. The Extraterrestrial
The most important field workplace hit of the Nineteen Eighties, and the largest of all time for a couple of years, is that this 1982 sci-fi fantasy film from Steven Spielberg. A cute alien is left on Earth when his spaceship departs with out him, and he’s discovered by a trio of siblings who reside in a typical suburb. E.T. kinds a deep relationship, in additional methods than one, with the center little one, Elliot, and that’s the catalyst for this story, as they attempt to “cellphone dwelling” and get E.T. again to his planet whereas authorities brokers seek for the creature. The film is written and filmed like a contemporary fairy story, full with flying bicycles, and you’ll possible be reaching for the tissues greater than as soon as.
This 1989 film is extra of a responsible pleasure than a really nice 80s film, nevertheless it’s on this record as a result of it’s simply so entertaining to look at. Patrick Swayze performs Dalton, a nightclub bouncer with no equal, who’s employed to take over these duties at a small city bar. Quickly, Dalton realizes that this new gig comes with some issues, like a ruthless native businessman who lords over the city and the bar. The premise is certainly a bit hokey, however the film is saved because of Swayze’s efficiency, in addition to Sam Elliott enjoying a mentor to Dalton. Simply sit again, watch, and have enjoyable.

CHRISTMAS TRAIN RIDE
This is my latest creation for Child's Play Challenge. The inspiration this time around was the movie "The Polar Express." I instantly thought of pictures I took of my daughter on her version of the "Polar Express." It involved taking the Amtrak train to Chicago & the American Girl Store. Prior to the trip, she fell in love with Felicity while thumbing through the American Girl Doll magazine. A few days before Christmas, we booked a trip for her to go shopping at the actual American Girl store. However, Santa surprised her with an early gift about half way to Chicago; her very own Felicity doll! She's on the phone in this picture telling her Grandma about the awesome surprise she got while riding on the train!

In Indian cinema, from the old days, women were seen only in front of the camera.
We know that Indian film industry is male-dominated or male-centric. But over the last decade, female participation has been established in all the fields of the film industry. They have excelled as producers, directors, choreographers, cinematographers, etc. and they 've done their best.
The contribution of females in the film industry has helped the industry to reach greater heights. A visible shift may be observed in female presence in film direction. Fatma Begum was the first female director in the era of 1920’s. Ever since, there are several women directors who have contributed a lot to the industry, and some of them are still continuing it. Zoya Akhtar, Mira Nair, Deepa Mehta, Fatma Begum, Meghna Gulzar, Gauri Shinde are some of the famous directors in Indian cinema. Suchithra Chandrabose, Sripriya, Nandini Reddy, Vijaya Nirmala, Anjali Menon, Geethu Mohandas are famous directors from south India.
Now a days, we can see that females are also able to deliver a good result as males and sometimes even better. We also need to remember that we need to evaluate a work based on its quality and aspects rather than who did it.

You can read Terrance Manning, Jr.'s story here.
Manning's imagery is strong from the beginning - depicting a hardass (and a bit unhinged) father, three resentfully obedient sons, and a reticent mother. The story revolves around Jay, a young man who is trying to connect with his father long after his death. He has a job removing asbestos in buildings - asbestos that his father once installed back in the day, asbestos that ended up killing him - and in his spare time, he's restoring his dad's old El Camino.
Yes, this is a motif that has been expressed a million times…a son must live with his father's mistakes long after he is gone and overcome the age-old battle of understanding who he is, and his manhood, through his father's legend. But Manning tells this story with care, attention to detail, irony, and depth. He adds internal complexity to a storyline that risks being cliché - but there are no cliché's in Manning's writing, just well-developed characterization and several hard-hitting realizations.
For months, Jay thinks he has come down with Mesothelioma from the asbestos, like his father. In the end, he wonders: "Maybe I had what my father had, that I could, for some reason, inherit it from him." This strikes hard as a metaphor for the qualities and lessons we inherit from our parents - the good, the bad. And even the bad qualities can ring with nostalgia. Jay often works without a mask, breathing in the asbestos, imagining it's his father's breath.
Above all, I love the juxtaposition of character memory. Jay recalls his father as erratic, unsettled, and angry, while his mother and uncle remember him as a "good man" with spirit and imagination. One person can have many faces in a lifetime, and each of us can impact the people close to us in so many different ways. By the end of the story, we see Jay's memory has transformed simply because he wills it to.
As for Andretti (a world champion racer) driving El Camino, he symbolizes yet another part of the father's legend; someone father and son both aspire to be, in some way, through the ownership of that car. The question is, will Jay ever be able to restore it, or will he find solace in memory, imagination?

***2018 OFFICIAL SELECTION VENICE FILM FESTIVAL***
Set on the open ocean in 1900, Age of Sail is the story of William Avery (voiced by Ian McShane), an old sailor adrift and alone in the North Atlantic. When Avery reluctantly rescues Lara, who has mysteriously fallen overboard, he finds redemption and hope in his darkest hours. Directed by ACADEMY AWARD-winning filmmaker John Kahrs. Produced with Chromosphere and Evil Eye
Google Spotlight Stories has released its latest short, Age of Sail. Directed by Academy Award winner John Kahrs (Disney’s Paperman short), it blends beautiful animation with the story of an old, lonely sailor, played by Ian McShane, who is adrift in the Atlantic Ocean in 1900. When he rescues a young woman (Cathy Ang), who fell overboard from a passing ship, his outlook changes to one of hope.
It’s the first Google Spotlight Stories short to include dialogue, and, clocking in at 12 minutes, it’s the longest one to date. Age of Sail was an official selection at this year’s Venice Film Festival, and it also qualifies for the best animated short film Oscar.
Kahrs and his team had to bear in mind that setting a VR film on the open sea, with a boat rolling on waves, could cause viewers motion sickness. They simplified the look of the sky and ocean, and made sure you’re able to focus on the horizon to minimize the feeling of seasickness.


|The San Diego Junior Theatre season consists of about 130 performances of 13 productions a year at Balboa Park's 640-seat Casa del Prado Theater and La Jolla and Chula Vista satellite locations. About 35,000 youngsters a year are served by the theater's classes in the park, in-school programs, and two-week theater summer camps.
Five thousand other students are taught between the Chula Vista location and the most recently added La Jolla location which opened Spring of 2005.
"What's unusual about junior theater is that the entire main stage productions are done by kids, with adult supervision," spokeswoman Theresa Miller said. "If a child has acted in a production, they have to crew before trying out again."
Those non-acting crew positions include everything from working backstage on scenery, costumes and lighting, to ushering and ticket-taking. Year-round classes and the five two-week summer camps cover acting, voice and dance.
"The real strength of junior theater is the support we get from the parents," Miller said. "They're our greatest resource ... and a lot of families stay involved after their children are grown."

Most Underrated, Thrilling Car Chase Scenes in Cinema
By: Good2GoPublished: November 16, 2016
An action movie just wouldn’t feel complete without a high-speed chase scene. Of course, there are several simple elements that make a chase scene a good one – a cool car, a super villain, and crowded streets are just some of them. Some chase scenes like those in For Your Eyes Only, Ronin, and Bullitt are classics and have gotten plenty of recognition. But what about the underrated chase scenes in cinematography? Here’s a list of some action movies with great chase scenes that didn’t necessarily get the accolades they might have deserved.
Mad Max: Fury Road
Nearly 30 years after Beyond Thunderdome, the world got a fresh dose of Mad Max when Fury Road premiered in 2015, starring Tom Hardy. George Miller is no newbe when it comes to directing action scenes, so it’s no wonder there are several thrilling car chase scenes in Fury Road. One that really stands out, though, is during the movie’s very first chase scene. Viewers anxiously follow the antagonist Immortan Joe and his army’s turbulent journey in armored tank through desert wasteland, with Tom Hardy’s imprisoned character, Max, being used as a “blood bag.” Needless to say, chaos ensues.
The Dark Knight
What do you get when you add Batman, an 18-wheeler, the Joker, and some bazookas? How about an awesome chase sequence in 2008’s The Dark Knight. The scene features the Joker and his men using a garbage truck and an 18-wheeler to wipe out multiple police vehicles and even a Gotham City Police Department helicopter. Eventually, Batman shows up in the Tumbler to take out the Joker and his cronies. Although Gotham is a fictional city believed to be set somewhere along the Hudson in New Jersey, this famous chase scene was filmed in Chicago.
It’s only natural that this unique exploitation action horror film was written and directed by Quentin Tarantino, a man recognized for being one of the most influential directors of his time. The film was theatrically released in the U.S. as part of a double feature with Planet Terror, under the collective title Grindhouse. Kurt Russell stars as a stuntman who uses his “death-proof” stunt car to stalk women and murder them in staged car accidents. One noteworthy chase scene features Zoe Bell (playing herself) strapped onto the hood of a 1970 Dodge Challenger with Stuntman Mike attempting to run the car off the road. Bell performs all her own stunts in the scene.
The Blues Brothers
Although there are two excellent chase scenes in The Blues Brothers, the shopping mall scene stands out since it was actually filmed inside a real shopping mall. The Dixie Square Mall in Harvey, Illinois was shuttered in 1979 before filming even began. The scene depicts Jake (John Belushi) and Elwood (Dan Akroyd) Blues as they drive through a shopping mall, complete with chaotic shoppers, with the police hot on their heels. The destroyed mall was left by the movie crew and director John Landis for over 20 years until it was finally torn down in 2013.

For watching "The Royals" in a perfectly fitting way I through a girl's night with Beauty Drinks, nail polishes and, of course, my best girls! We had a lot of fun that night.
The Beauty drinks weren't as good as they look but the candies were okay. Laura and Julia liked them more than I did.
"The Royals" is definitely a TV Show we recommend. In my opinion, Gossip Girl is still my all time favourite but "The Royals" is worth watching it! Trust me! I'm already finished with watching season 2!

Typically, when people talk about the crazy things studios have done with green screens, they’re referring to movies. Granted, the film industry has been using them for much longer, but various TV shows are starting to do some amazing things that could forever change how shows are made. Although it’s only been in place for a short time, the TV industry’s evolution of green screen use has come a long way and shows no signs of slowing down.
Filming Alone but Together
Something TV shows have been doing for a while now is having the actors perform their roles separately, with the production team using green screens and CGI to bring them together. Arrested Development most popularly explored this idea after Netflix brought the show back. Since most of the actors had successful careers at that point, they had very little time to film together. This technique allowed the studio to film each actor’s part according to their schedule and still create cohesive episodes.
Of course, due to the pandemic, this technique has become more widely used. A recent example is The Drew Barrymore Show, in which the studio filmed Drew in New York while many of her guests remained in LA. They would talk over video chat, but the people in LA were filmed in front of a green screen so the show could make it look like they were sitting in front of the host.
Fixing Mistakes in Post
The film industry has used this technique for quite a while, but now that more shows are utilizing green screens, making minor or even significant edits in post-production to fix on-set mistakes is easier than ever. A perfect example of this is the scene in WandaVision in which Vision floated down in front of a car—they used a stunt double while filming, but the producers felt like the descent wasn’t elegant enough to fit Vision’s character. Instead of going through the laborious process of refilming the scene, they simply reworked it with the use of CGI.
Showing Up the Film Industry
The most exciting part of the TV industry’s evolution of green screen use is the fact that it shows no signs of stopping. With more shows finding mainstream success and budgets increasing to meet the demand for jaw-dropping cinematography in television, TV is getting closer and closer to the level of blockbuster films.
Many of the recent Marvel and Star Wars shows display just how close shows are getting to that level. Granted, they’re not perfect, but Marvel’s Moon Knight managed to produce a kaiju-level fight between two Egyptian gods that looked pretty amazing.
If some of these shows have inspired you to push the limits of CGI for your studio work, you should check out our selection of green screens and modular cyclorama sets. We’re confident you will be able to create great things given the right tools.


February 25th, 2011
Every February at the University of Chicago Law School, a group of students performs an original two-act musical. The participating students write the book and songs (although the production often parodies an existing movie or musical plot, adding new lyrics to familiar tunes). The musical has been around since the 1980s, and most of the production’s alumni have gone on to great legal careers (though not a single one into theater!). Students run every aspect of the musical, not only writing the words and songs, but also making up the ten-piece pit band; doing all the tech, set design and set construction; directing the show; choreographing it and, of course, performing it.

Get Paid To Watch The Fast & Furious Movies
As far as side-hustles go, this one seems pretty awesome. Yonkers Honda in New York is so excited for the ninth Fast & Furious movie that they want to pay someone $900 to binge-watch the preceding films in the series. The job entails more than just watching the films, though. The selected person will need to chronicle their experience via Facebook and Twitter, and fill out a worksheet for each movie. Fair enough.
Interested? You can apply on the Yonkers Honda website and answer a series of questions about your favorite cars, movie, and what you love about driving. If selected, the dealership will hook you up with the movies, snacks, and energy drinks. You have until May 6th to apply for the “Fast Saga Binge-Watch Contest.” Good luck!


Drama was a subject i absolutely hated!!!!!!!!!!!! I just did not enjoy it for some reason.
The first topic we did in drama was monologs. We had to memorize a paragraph or two from a book and present a presentation to the class. It was very embarrassing. The next thing we did was work on scripts and play writing. It was quite an interesting topic for me. At the start of each class we would do drama exercises and warm ups. Mr. Lockwood was our drama teacher. Coming towards the end of the semester we started creating our own plays in groups. There was an all girls group and an two boys groups. Our play was called "Cinderella" and we practiced and practiced rehearsing them until our performance. We performed all of our plays in front of the year 9 kids which was rather quite embarrassing for me. We only had drama for the first semester which was probably good for me considering I didn't it.
