At Miami Dade College, I’m part of the audience eagerly anticipating this year’s festival. It kicks off with Julie Delpy’s comedy “Meet the Barbarians,” a fitting opener given that she’s one of this year’s Impact Award recipients. As we bring the curtains down on the final night, we’ll be immersed in Daniel Minahan’s 1950s drama, “On Swift Horses,” featuring Daisy Edgar-Jones and Jacob Elordi. I can hardly wait!
During that period, Chris Ivery and I were quite active in volunteering at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. They have a remarkable program there where they create music specifically for the infants in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). When parents must leave their children to go to work all day, they record themselves singing lullabies or telling stories, and these recordings are played for the babies during the day when the parents can’t be present. This comforts the babies, contributing to more favorable outcomes.
In an on-set interview with EbMaster (a film crew member), Glen spoke about his process for portraying Wood, a historical figure who held the position of governor-general of the Philippines from 1921 to 1927 and played a significant role in Manuel L. Quezon’s fight for Philippine independence from the U.S. The movie is a biographical film that highlights the life story of Quezon, a prominent Filipino lawyer and military leader who served as president of the Philippine Commonwealth from 1935 to 1944.
The TCA press tour has been a topic of many discussions due to its irregular occurrences in recent times. With networks and studios no longer actively participating as they once did, along with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the double strikes in Hollywood causing numerous delays in 2023, the tour has experienced several interruptions.
In a panic, Butters exclaims from the air traffic control room, “Gosh, it seems like everyone is going to lose their jobs!” As planes collide in the distance.
Reporter Nikki Battiste recently visited New Jersey, gaining access to the room of a person suffering from ALS who had decided to end her life. The footage ended just prior to the woman taking medication that would induce a deep sleep before her passing – a legal procedure under state law. At the same time, foreign correspondent Debora Patta successfully entered Sudan after two years of attempts, and provided a heart-wrenching account of the struggles faced by children there who were once promised aid from the now-closed United States Agency for International Development. A baby featured in the report was emaciated, struggling to move, and visibly blind in one eye.

Kilmer possessed an old-school charm when it came to cameras. His scowl had a sensual edge, much like Marlon Brando’s, and his eyes burned with intensity. In “Top Gun,” where he portrayed Iceman, tasked with antagonizing Cruise’s Maverick, he embodied a malevolent beach bum – the type of character who won popularity contests but left you questioning their trustworthiness. Iceman’s smile was as sharp as a bite, yet he wasn’t the movie’s villain; instead, he underwent a transformation, using his need for speed to achieve a triumphant end. Although it was a supporting role, “Top Gun” skyrocketed into fame, becoming the quintessential blockbuster of the ’80s. Kilmer thrived in this newfound spotlight, showcasing the innate charisma and grace typical of a movie star.
