Miller, undoubtedly, has been masterminding automotive chaos since his initial blockbuster, the original Mad Max, hit screens in 1979. This long-standing career has allowed him to witness firsthand the evolution of action choreography and stunt work spanning over four decades. Notably, he’s played a significant role in shaping these traditions. However, when queried about his thoughts, he emphasizes that the fundamentals of filmmaking remain grounded in the dynamic energy and artistic flair characteristic of the silent movie era.

As a movie enthusiast, I must say that the cinematic landscape of 20XX has been remarkably distinctive. Among these unique productions, Brady Corbet’s The Brutalist stands out as a remarkable three-and-a-half hour Holocaust survivor narrative, shot in VistaVision and potentially securing Adrien Brody his second Oscar. This period piece introduces us to László Tóth, a Jewish Hungarian architect navigating America in the 1940s, emerging from a ship on the Hudson River with only dread in his heart. The duration of his sea voyage and the specific hardships he’s endured remain unclear. Even the path ahead for Tóth is shrouded in darkness and crowds. All we have to guide us is Daniel Blumberg’s Oscar-nominated score, which initially echoes with familiar, powerful brass notes, reminiscent of industrial machinery, setting the stage for an American Dream tale of heroic proportions. However, as the theme fades away, the music undergoes a transformation into something eerie: discordant clock chimes, jarring piano percussion, dissonant saxophone melodies that seem like instruments being dropped. What once felt grand and brassy now feels oppressive as the glissandi descend into cacophony. As the film progresses, it becomes increasingly challenging to distinguish which instrument we’re hearing, if we’re hearing instruments at all.

As a movie enthusiast, I can tell you that the character Reacher clearly empathizes with Duffy’s protective feelings towards Teresa Daniels, reminding me of my own experience with a protege who met an unfortunate fate. In a sequence of flashbacks to 2012, we are introduced to this talented young military cop, Sergeant First Class Dominique Kohl. Mariah Robinson effortlessly conveys Kohl’s intelligence and unwavering commitment to duty right from the get-go.

Born in San Bernardino, California, in 1930, I found myself enlisting in the U.S. Marine Corps at just 16, bending the truth about my age. During my military service, I honed my skills as a broadcast journalist before being honorably discharged in 1951. My acting career took off at the Pasadena Playhouse in 1956, but it was far from successful. As I confessed to the Chicago Tribune in 1986, I received the lowest score among students from the Playhouse. The lack of encouragement I received there made me realize that the academic side of acting might not be my forte.

With determination and camaraderie, my friends Dustin Hoffman and Robert Duvall and I embarked on our journey to revolutionize the cinematic world during the 1960s and ’70s, starting in New York City.

As a die-hard fan, let me tell you, the excitement was palpable right from the start of the episode! For the first time ever, we got to witness the raw emotions of several contestants when they found out they’d made it onto our beloved reality show. Can you believe it? People applying for their favorite show were overjoyed when they got selected? Unheard of!

Then, once everyone had arrived at the beach, Jeff went around asking questions like, “You in the front, what made you apply?” This little quirk of his just drives me crazy. Every single premiere, he does this. “You in the orange shirt,” he says. Then, only 10 minutes later, during the first challenge, he’s shouting out everyone’s name as they struggled through the mud. Jeff, we all know you remember who they are. Why the pretense?

The Fourth of July party hosted by the group fell short compared to what one might expect from a gathering on “Summer House”. Despite the boys’ elaborate decorations, such as a water slide, hot-dog cart, dunk tank, and matching costumes for their friendships (Carl and Kyle dressed as a hot dog and bun, Jesse and West as ketchup and mustard), the event lacked enthusiasm. Perhaps the weather was the culprit, but it’s also possible that everyone just wasn’t feeling it. The girls ultimately won the competition, not because of their decorations, but because they had control over the bar.

Lately, I found myself astonished as my nephew learned that his parents and aunts were born in the 1900s – a striking realization for me, being only 30, that aging isn’t an abstract concept but a tangible reality others can experience, particularly those just starting their lives. Similarly, Barbara experiences this awakening when her daughter Taylor announces a new family member, thereby making Barbara the most fashionable grandma at Abbott Elementary.

In simpler terms, Rosie O’Donnell, who worked with Trachtenberg in ‘Harriet the Spy’, shared with People magazine that she held Trachtenberg dearly and was saddened by her struggles in recent years, wishing she could have provided more support. Similarly, J. Smith-Cameron, who played Harriet’s mother in the movie, also released a statement expressing her condolences. She recalled that Trachtenberg was thrilled to land her first lead film role in ‘Harriet the Spy’. As an adult, they reconnected through social media. Smith-Cameron expressed her feelings of shock and discomfort upon hearing about Trachtenberg’s passing.

Can we really count on Elon Musk following through with his claims? Let’s examine some of his past promises to draw conclusions. Musk declared he would solve world hunger, but he did not. Similarly, he claimed he could save the soccer team trapped in the cave, but he failed to do so. Additionally, he accused one of their rescuers of being a “pedo.” However, he did succeed in purchasing Twitter. It seems that his track record is mixed.

In 2021, Richard Kahn, former president of the Academy in the late 1980s, expressed that he felt much like many of us do about events, such as the luncheon, that have been canceled and delayed due to the pandemic. He described it as something cherished by us.
