Death by Lightning Recap: Men Like Us

It’s hard to say what kind of president James Garfield would have been, as he spent most of his time in office—80 out of 200 days—struggling to survive after being shot. The show “Party Faithful” hints that despite seeming like a natural successor to Lincoln within the Republican party, Garfield may not have truly wanted the job. The first episode cleverly leaves his motivations unclear: he initially went to the Republican National Convention simply to support John Sherman, but unexpectedly became the party’s nominee. Was he genuinely dedicated to serving the country, or did he harbor hidden ambitions that others, like Sherman and his wife Lucretia, suspected despite his humble demeanor? He may have been pretending to be less interested than he actually was.

Jennifer Lawrence’s Worst Nightmare

Jennifer Lawrence was the first actor attached to the film. Producer Martin Scorsese discovered the source novel at his book club and believed the lead role would be a great challenge for her.

Recently, I spoke with Ramsay and Lawrence – who was wearing a black gown by The Row on her way to the CFDA Awards and playfully acknowledged being overdressed – about the film’s depiction of postpartum experiences, the challenges of filming intimate scenes while pregnant, and the meaning behind its dramatic conclusion. (Be warned: spoilers for Die My Love follow.)

Immediately after Suits concluded, fans began asking for a revival.

Why ‘The Shawshank Redemption’ Is Dedicated to Allen Greene

Before directing the Oscar-nominated The Shawshank Redemption, Frank Darabont worked as a screenwriter on popular 1980s horror films like A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, The Blob, and The Fly II.

The Shawshank Redemption was a profoundly important project for him, and it significantly changed his career path – a key reason why the enigmatic Greene is credited with the dedication of the film.
