Cover: Brad Pitt Blindsided by Abuse Bombshell

Page 2: Up Front & Personal -- former Vanderpump Rules hunk Jax Taylor hauling trash outside his L.A. home, tennis star Venus Williams had some courtside cuddles with her pet pup in Miami, sitcom star turned pot peddler Jim Belushi during a spin around Santa Monica

Page 3: Chrissy Metz runs errands in L.A., David Hasselhoff with his wife Hayley Roberts in Calabasas, Lena Headey buzzed around in L.A. on an electric bike

Page 4: Toxic TV talker Ellen DeGeneres is trapped in a tragic tailspin, belting back booze while struggling to get a grip on her fading career and rocky marriage -- after losing 1 million viewers this year alone, Ellen's once high-flying show is on thin ice and she's fighting with wife Portia de Rossi amid talks of a $300 million divorce -- her ratings are tanking, and her marriage is coming apart at the seams and she's knocking back the red wine to drown her sorrows -- her strategy is to let the storm about her talk show die down and then pull in some huge guest stars to win back her audience and reestablish herself as top dog on the talk show circuit -- at the same time, her 12-year marriage to Portia has been hanging by a thread and the two had been at loggerheads after serial house-flipper Ellen put the estate she bought from Maroon 5's Adam Levine on the market for $53.5 million and Portia thought it was finally going to be their forever home and it was like pulling the rug out from under her -- then another crisis struck home as Ellen rushed Portia to the hospital after she collapsed and Portia underwent an emergency appendectomy and is now recuperating but her spouse is a mess over Portia's health crisis and she's been drowning her sorrows in booze -- Ellen realizes much more than ever how much she desperately loves Portia and what she's got to lose if they split but she also knows it's be a lot of work to get the relationship back on track once Portia recovers

Page 5: Chevy Chase secretly cheated death after a secret heart condition landed him in the hospital for five long weeks and now he may never be out of the woods -- the 77-year-old, who is now recovering at his Westchester, N.Y. home, recently revealed the heart issue snuck up on him -- Chevy needed valve replacement surgery, and recovering boozer Chevy's long history of swilling alcohol had left him with an enlarged heart and acute cardiomyopathy, a disease that makes it harder for the organ to pump blood to the rest of his body and his heart problems stems from his years of drinking plain and simple and it's affected his heart, weakened it over the years -- however, before risky surgery could be performed, docs needed to make sure the comedian was stable enough for the procedure -- in 2017, Chevy claimed he'd finally gotten sober after one of his daughters said she gave up on him and his wife Jayni threatened to leave him if he didn't clean up his act but it may be too little too late for the comedy legend because valve replacement surgery could affect his activities for the rest of his life and it means his heart was pumping through an ineffective valve, and this damages heart muscles, which never grow back and he could have ongoing chest pains or dangerous heart rhythm disturbances, which could lead to heart attack or death

Page 6: Dr. Dre's estranged wife, Nicole Young, claims the rap mogul knocked her out cold in a drunken rage -- it's the latest bombshell in the couple's brutal divorce war, with Nicole making the explosive charge in an application for a restraining order that was denied by a judge and she also alleges Dre punched her squarely in the face after he felt she disrespected him at a party in 1999 and Nicole claims she woke up in their car with Andre speeding at over 100 miles per hour, drunk and out of control and he was swerving and weaving and she thought she was going to die and she also claims a drunk and angry Dre held a gun to her head during a 2012 dispute, saying she was terrified he was going to kill her -- Dre has denied all of Nicole's abuse claims

* In a desperate bid to save their crumbling romance, Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez are seeing a sex therapist to spice up their fizzling bedroom romps -- the duo called off their wedding plans after a stormy four-year affair and are on the brink of the end -- A-Rod staved off a break at the last minute by dashing down to the Dominican Republic, where J.Lo's filming her new flick and patching things up for the moment -- the biggest issue has been Alex's roving eye plus sexting various women on the side, and Jennifer wants to get to the bottom of why she's not enough for him

Page 7: Jeopardy! contestants want celeb medic Dr. Mehmet Oz axed as guest host -- casting the dubious doc celebrates the elevation of talking heads at the expense of academic rigor and consensus, according to a group of the game show's former winners and contestants in a letter -- the letter cites instances in which Dr. Oz used his authority as a doctor to push harmful ideas, and referred to a 2014 letter penned by faculty at Columbia Medical School, where Oz also teaches, calling for his removal from the program and the letter concludes inviting Oz to guest host is a slap in the face to all involved

Page 8: Jeffrey Epstein's accused madam Ghislaine Maxwell's third desperate bid to get out of jail on bail has been nixed by a federal judge -- the 59-year-old British socialite it rotting in a Brooklyn, N.Y. federal slammer denying charges she recruited underage girls to be sex slaves for her late lover Epstein, whose 2019 death in his jail cell is suspected on being a staged murder, despite an official ruling of suicide -- Maxwell's offer to plunk down $22.5 million and give up her citizenships in England and France was nixed by Judge Alison Nathan, who agreed with prosecutors the suspected Israeli intelligence asset was still a flight risk -- meanwhile, Ghislaine's lawyers claim she was abused by a guard and is losing hair and weight due to poor treatment in the slammer, where she's awaiting a July trail date

Page 9: Billionaire Queen Elizabeth is bracing for a big pay cut -- due to the financial crash triggered by the COVID pandemic, the Sovereign Grant, the tax money allowance the royals get, is expected to be slashed by more than 25 percent when it comes up for its five-year renewal in 2022 -- last year, Her Highness raked in $114.2 million from taxpayers, but that bundle was exceptional and cannot expect that to be repeated -- a major cost, besides allowances for the royal family, is a renovation of Buckingham Palace, which prices out at $500 million over 10 years -- one saving is Prince Harry and wife Meghan Markle have been stripped of their titles and public paychecks -- Her Majesty is aware of the current financial situation and is happy to play her part in cutting costs

* Prince Harry has landed a job as a hot-shot exec of a firm providing mental health and life counseling but it sounds like the tech start-up company is really using him as a celebrity showhorse -- Harry, who studied art and geography in college, will be Chief Impact Officer for BetterUp Inc, saying he intends to help create impact in people's lives -- BetterUp CEO Alexi Robichaux refused to say how much he's paying the prince, but noted Harry will have a meaningful and meaty role and will attend all employee meetings at the San Francisco headquarters and Robichaux also hinted at Harry's true value, saying he'll be a special guest at company events; in other words, the company will use him as a celebrity draw and they'll lure potential clients and investors to events by saying they can run shoulders with the prince and Harry has no psychology training; he will be a showpiece -- Harry first hooked up with BetterUp by using its app that gives proactive coaching and provides endless possibilities for personal development, increased awareness and an all-around better life and Harry says he was matched with his coach who is truly awesome and has always given him sound advice and a fresh perspective, which is so valuable

Page 10: Lisa Marie Presley is getting back on track after her son Benjamin Keough's tragic suicide and bitter divorce from Michael Lockwood, but she's still a hopeless addict -- Elvis Presley's 53-year-old daughter smokes like a chimney from morning until night and is struggling for every breath and she goes through a pack or two a day minimum and she simply can't quit and she has cut out triggers like booze and coffee, but she still needs her cigarette fix from the moment she wakes up until she puts her head down at night -- she was snapped having a smoke outside a COVID-19 testing center in L.A.'s San Fernando Valley and it was the only time she was spotted in public since her son died in July -- she started smoking at age 15 and has admitted this is the one thing that got her and bit her in the ass that she can't shake even those she's kicked pain pills, cocaine, booze and opioids and she's tried everything she can think of to quit: patches, nicotine gum, going cold turkey, but nothing works and she did stop for a spell after being hypnotized but a day or two later she was lighting up again -- she's losing weight, exercising more and eating healthier, but her smoking habit is the elephant in the room

Page 11: Following the heart-crushing suicide of her brother, Elvis Presley's granddaughter Riley Keough has become a death doula, a counselor who helps terminal patients and their cope with the devastating trauma -- Riley announced she'd completed her training on social media -- the daughter of Lisa Marie Presley and her first husband Danny Keough, Riley was devastated when her brother Benjamin Keough committed suicide with a shotgun last July -- spurred by the tragedy to become a death doula, Riley says she thinks it's so important to be educated on conscious dying and death the way we educate ourselves on birth and conscious birthing

* Reality TV train wreck Mama June Shannon claims she and her boyfriend Geno Doak spent $900,000 in a year to feed their drug addiction and the couple were spending $2500 a day, if not more, on methamphetamine -- June entered rehab with $1.75 in her pocket and they've been clean 14 months

Page 16: Cover Story -- Angelina Jolie is determined to paint her ex Brad Pitt as an abusive, drunken monster, and now she's got their kids backing her claim that he's the dad from hell -- the mom of six, who's been battling Brad in court over custody and money for five years, filed new bombshell papers saying she and her children want to testify their life was the pits -- while the documents are sealed, Angelina is making sure their kids paint Brad as violent and aggressive and her shocking charges continue earlier accusations by oldest child Maddox, now 19 and in college, who accused a booze-fueled Brad of abusing him on a private flight five years ago and Maddox essentially painted his dad as a demented monster and he went into detail about Brad's terrible temper, the abuse he inflicted on the whole household with his binge drinking and the scars that exist to this day because of the appalling way he alleges Brad treated his mom during the marriage -- Brad has reportedly been sober for years and Angelina's new claims of domestic abuse are basically a rehash of the old accusations -- legal experts also maintain the minor kids can only testify if Brad agrees to it, which is doubtful -- the superstars have spent a combined $10 million in legal fees and are currently battling over visitation rights for their brood and Angelina has refused to compromise, wants full custody and calls it a fight to the death and she doesn't care about Brad or how anybody sees their fight, she just wants what she feels she is entitled to as a mother and will fight with every inch of her body and soul to get it

Page 19: 10 Things You Don't Know About Topher Grace

Page 20: True Crime

Page 23: William Shatner is creating an artificial intelligence-powered version of himself -- in true sci-fi fashion, people in the future will be able to ask him questions about his life and times -- the 90-year-old icon is the first person to be captured by an advanced video and sound system developed by the L.A.-based company StoryFile -- Shatner says with StoryFile, we can now be present for the future; your authentic self, for all time

* Furious perfume mogul William Lauder is battling to kick his former mistress Taylor Stein and their 13-year-old love child out of her home and into the street, because their supposedly secret love affair was revealed -- the big stink exploded after the 60-year-old Estee Lauder heir learned his secret teen daughter wrote on social media that her parents were divorced but actually, Lauder never wed Taylor, but kept her like a queen in a $7 million, 6000-square-foot Bel Air mansion with a $1 million annual allowance for years and the only condition was that she keep their affair and the child under wraps, but the Park Avenue playboy claims she blasted their pact to smithereens when his illicit daughter blabbed about the relationship online -- Lauder hooked up with Taylor in Aspen in 2000 while still wed to wife Karen, mom of three of his daughters -- he knocked Taylor up in 2005, but told her to get an abortion because he was then in the midst of divorcing Karen but three years before the 2009 divorce, Taylor got pregnant again and gave birth to their girl and that's when the moneybags lover boy drew up the hush-hush deal

Page 24: COVID vaccines hidden dangers -- scientists warn shots don't work and have nightmare side effects

Page 27: Gal rock roadie Tana Douglas is snitching on music superstars including George Harrison and Iggy Pop, who she got close to during her wild years traveling with bands -- in her book called Loud, she recalls her job hauling equipment for bands nearly ended at age 21 when Beatle George Harrison was ready to propose, but she blew it; the two were getting close under a kitchen table after George fled his own birthday party, where he was embarrassed by his present: strippers and she ruined the mood by firing up a cigarette and George told her he would marry her tomorrow if she gave up smoking but the first female rock roadie couldn't kick butts -- she has crazy stories about saving AC/DC's frontman Bon Scott when he overdosed, Elton John who did drugs and threw tantrums, The Go-Gos, and doing a line of coke with Iggy Pop intended for David Bowie

Page 28: Health Report

Page 30: Julianne Hough has plumped up her kisser, and her new look falls flat -- the newly single star may have gone overboard with lip fillers to the point where she's almost unrecognizable -- Julianne's had some surgical and nonsurgical things done, but her lips just look wonky and no one can understand why she'd do it because her lips looked fine to her friends and family, but Julianne obviously thought they needed more volume and clearly got carried away -- she's also totally gone overboard with the spray tanning and hair extensions and she ditched the short blond bob that suited her so well and now she's looking like a Kardashian -- her lips look a bit swollen, so it's possible they will settle down and her natural lip proportions appear to have changed, with her upper lip the same size as her lower lip

Page 32: Tori Spelling has got the marriage blues and she's been out and about without her wedding ring -- the 47-year-old mom of five was spotted buying veggies at Underwood Family Farms in California's Moorpark with her kids but minus husband Dean McDermott and her wedding ring -- Tori's fed up with her mate, whining he's not doing his share around the house or paying her enough attention and they've found themselves in a real rut where they spend less and less time together and barely mention one another on social media and they haven't had a date night since goodness knows and Dean is never in the romantic mood and lately, they're more like brother and sister than husband and wife -- Tori wants Dean to step it up and start acting like a hubby instead of a leach and Tori's exhausting herself by taking care of the domestic chores single-handedly at times while Dean has other things on his mind and he hasn't picked up a vacuum or washed the dishes in weeks and sometimes he doesn't seem to be aware she's in the room and it's frustrating her to no end -- ditching her ring is sending Dean a very clear message that he needs to stop taking her for granted and work on the marriage

* Paul McCartney dove deep into his Beatles past and emerged with a children's book inspired by the group's 1966 hit Yellow Submarine -- Grandude's Green Submarine, a sequel to Paul's picture book Hey Grandude, will be released in September and changes the color of the submerged vessel

Page 36: Reality TV momager Kris Jenner is worth an estimated $190 million and masterminded the megabucks careers of her reality star daughters, but she confesses she was clueless about dough when she became divorced -- Kris confesses first husband Robert Kardashian handled everything and she never paid a bill during their 13-year marriage that ended in 1991 -- she said she woke up to responsibilities that she didn't have the day before but she says she's a quick study and she knew she had to get it together and she felt such an enormous sense of accomplishment to be able to figure it all out and pay her own bills and make her own money and do her own taxes and there were times when she didn't have a lot of money, but she was very organized -- now she studies business for new opportunities and she's interested in different businesses and how they evolve and how they become successful and she just enjoys the business world

* Bobby Brown's son Bobby Jr. died after accidentally overdosing on a killer cocktail of alcohol, cocaine and fentanyl, his autopsy reveals, but lawmen say they are now opening a criminal investigation into the 27-year-old's death at his father's home in suburban L.A. -- the autopsy report showed in his final hours Bobby Jr. consumed a deadly mix of tequila, cocaine and the prescription medication Percocet -- he was Brown's second child with former galpal Kim Ward

Page 38: Long-lost letters written by Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler's father, Alois, reveal the freaky Fuhrer grew up to be a cruel, tyrannical, arrogant lout, just like his old man -- the 31 letters were discovered by retiree Anneliese Smigielski in the attic of her house in the Austrian town of Wallern and are the basis of a new book by historian Roman Sandgruber -- penned to Anneliese's great-great-great-grandfather Joseph Radlegger, who sold retired customs official Alois a farm when future Nazi monster Adolf was six in 1895, the letters reveal Hitler's dad was a brutal boozer and boss of the house, but depended on the skills and money of his third wife, Klara, a former servant girl the cheating creep had seduced and wine-guzzling Alois was awfully rough with her and beat little Adolf and the other eight kids -- like his father, Adolf felt superior through the knowledge he had acquired in self-study and he saw himself as a military, technical and artistic genius, not only as a painter, but also as an architect, writer, composer and actor

Page 40: Bethenny Frankel is sporting an engagement ring from fiance Paul Bernon -- the three-stone ring features a huge eight- to ten-carat emerald-shaped center stone and if it's a real, natural diamond, its estimated value is up to $1 million

* Gwyneth Paltrow just babbled something her second husband, Brad Falchuk, probably doesn't want to hear: she never wanted to get divorced from Chris Martin but she wed Brad in 2018 and Gwyneth calls him the most amazing man adding they've built something that she's never had before

* Suzanne Somers brags she and husband Alan Hamel are having sizzling sex three times a day before noon -- she blames doses of hormones for their frisky urges in their golden years

* Klutzy comic Chelsea Handler jokes about her subpar skiing skills online, but later revealed she wrecked her knee and broke two toes after she flew into the trees on a snowy slope in Canada -- Chelsea confesses she took the terrible tumble in British Columbia, where she was training with a personal instructor

Page 41: Vin Diesel's son Vincent is learning it's a good career move to have a movie star dad -- the 10-year-old has landed a $1000-a-day role in his father's new Fast and Furious flick -- the kid plays the younger version of Vin's character Dominic Toretto in the already completed, ninth F&F film -- Vincent's mom is Vin's longtime galpal, Mexican model Paloma Jimenez, who also has two daughters with Vin -- unlike his dad's megabucks salary, Vincent got the basic $1005 daily rate

* The faith-based Duggar family of 19 Kids and Counting fame is still feuding after a sleazy sex scandal ripped them apart -- Jill Duggar Dillard, who's outed herself as one of four sisters molested by big brother Josh Duggar, reveals she hasn't visited her parents' home in years -- Jill and husband Derick Dillard, say they aren't allowed at Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar's Big House without her father's permission and Jill reveals there's some restrictions but also they just feel like they have to prioritize their mental and emotional health -- TLC axed the family's show after Josh was exposed as a child molester and in the past, Jill's admitted she's not on the best terms with some of her family

Page 42: Kim Kardashian has been getting back in touch with her body big-time now that she has booted Kanye West from her bedroom and her life and she's been strolling around totally nude -- with the pair's six-year marriage officially kaput, Kim is gleefully letting it all hang out, while indulging in once-forbidden McDonald's french fries -- Kanye made a habit of telling Kim to cover up and picked her to pieces for wearing sexy outfits and he said she needed to class up her act and grow old gracefully but now she's free to express herself and a lot of the time, especially when Kanye's looking after the kids, she's walking around totally in the nude and it's liberating for her to be at one with her body and she's made no secret of her desire to pursue a racy image and right now Kim's priority is to get her mojo back and learn to love herself again physically

* Britney Spears confesses she's been so wrapped up in battling the conservatorship over her estate, she forgot about singing until her mom reminded her -- the singer hasn't cut an album for five years as she's battled dad Jamie Spears for control of her $60 million fortune after a court gave him control when she went bonkers in 2008 -- she now realizes she's neglected her career after mom Lynne Spears sent her a video of her signing You Got It All at a '90s concert in Singapore and Britney tweeted that her mom reminded her that she can sing and she never sings anymore

Page 44: Straight Talk -- Cradle-robbing Scott Disick has struck again, scooping up a new galpal half of his 37 years, who is barely out of high school -- the latest victim is Amelia Hamlin, 19 years old and daughter of Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin

Page 45: Sharon Osbourne is demanding at least $10 million to walk away from The Talk after being accused of racist and sexist attacks on co-hosts -- Sharon is playing hardball, saying she was wrongly vilified for branding lesbian co-star Sara Gilbert a fish eater and calling Chinese-American Julie Chen slanty eyes -- it's going to become a battle royale and Sharon's made her demands clear and will fight tooth and nail and she's a street fighter and is used to playing down and dirty, owing to her years as a hard-nosed rock manager for husband Ozzy Osbourne

Movie Reviews: Leap of Faith / The Orange Years / Sound of Metal / Belushi

For a guy who hasn’t been to a movie theater since February, I’ve been more than making up for it with loads of movie reviews in my home! This week I had several I got to review:

Leap of Faith: William Friedkin on The Exorcist

A few years ago when I reviewed 78/52, the documentary about the shower scene in Psycho, I noted that director Alexandre O. Philippe has become one of the great pop culture documentarians of our time following The People vs. George Lucas and Doc of the Dead. Philippe is back and he’s taking on one of the most talked about director/film shoots in history: Leap of Faith: William Friedkin on The Exorcist takes on director Friedkin, who is now 85 years old. It’s just him talking about his influences, his experience and his many stories about directing 1973′s The Exorcist, which is considered by many to be the scariest movie ever made. In my directing class in college, the teacher mentioned a few of the tales of Friedkin. Beyond The French Connection and The Brink’s Job, I never got that into his films. This is not so much a documentary on The Exorcist as it is on Friedkin talking about his experience.

movie poster

The doc reminded me a lot of the Brian De Palma documentary De Palma, where the director subject is the only interviewee and is the central and only focal point of the doc. As a filmmaker myself, I found Friedkin’s stories to be quite engaging. It does venture into For Fans Only at times and if you haven’t seen The Exorcist, lots of luck keeping up with a lot of the stories. But if you are a fan or a 70s Director Geek, you’ll devour this doc.

Leap of Faith premiered on Shudder this week: https://exhibitapictures.com/films/leap-of-faith/

The Orange Years: The Nickelodeon Story

Premiering in an early iteration in 1977, and officially launching as a new cable TV channel in 1979, Nickelodeon was the first TV channel geared entirely towards kids. I happen to be the exact age of their demo as I began watching it in the mid-late 80s. We didn’t have cable in my house, but when I went over my Dad’s house, I loved watching Nickelodeon shows like Pinwheel, Today’s Special, Nick Rocks (their music video show), Danger Mouse, You Can’t Do That on Television, Double Dare and more! Around 1988, Nickelodeon had a contest where they were giving away 1000 slinkies. My Dad and I entered a few times and we ended up winning 2 of the 1000 slinkies. But my favorite show was Rated K: For Kids By Kids, the kids’ movie review show. I was into it at the very moment I was getting into movies and watching Siskel & Ebert, it was tweens and teens talking about movies in a way you could relate. I sent in fan letters and even hoped to get on the show as a critic one day. Once in a while I got a postcard back thanking me and one time I even was told my fan letter was selected in a contest and I won sneakers! But I digress.

movie poster (with lots of slime too)

Directors Scott Barber and Adam Sweeney have now given the golden age of Nickelodeon (the 80s and early 90s) the documentary treatment with The Orange Years. It begins in the 1977 when it was a part of Columbus, OH’s QUBE cable system, then evolved into a cable TV channel. Among the interviewees are former executives, but the doc really kicks into gear when they get into shows: YCDTOT, Double Dare, Hey Dude, Clarissa Explains It All, and many more. Many noteworthy interviewees include Nick alum Marc Summers, Melissa Joan Hart, Kenan Thompson, Danny Cooksey, and Graham Yost. Since Ren and Stimpy got the documentary treatment earlier this year with Happy Happy Joy Joy (read my review here), that series gets mentioned, but not as much as other shows.

As someone who made a documentary about a 1980s TV channel (Boston’s music video channel V66), I felt like there were a lot of similarities to the story I told. Even though my doc was about a regional channel and not a national cable channel, there were a lot of similarities in terms of something new and unlike anything else on television that is geared towards a specific audience that was fanatical. As a burst of joygasmic nostalgia, this doc was off the charts! I had a grin ear to ear watching some of the old clips and seeing some of the cast members today. It brought back so many memories! However, as a documentary, I wished there had been a little more of a narrative structure. Much of the doc is made up of segments about each of the shows, but I kind of wished they had more of a sequential story arc in terms of the channel’s evolution in between the show segments. Towards the beginning and towards the end, they got into the company, the branding, the ratings, etc. It might have been a better narrative to sprinkle that throughout. And also - I do wish Rated K got a segment too! If you were a kid in the 80s or 90s, you’ll be in TV Heaven seeing some of the old clips.

Gravitas is releasing The Orange Years this week: http://www.theorangeyears.com/

Sound of Metal

Opening this week in theaters before it premieres on Amazon Prime Video in December is Sound of Metal. Here is my review from IFFBoston Fall Focus a few weeks ago.

Belushi

movie poster

In the 1996 college comedy Glory Daze, Alyssa Milano stumbles into Ben Affleck’s room and notices the poster of John Belushi wearing his College sweater on the wall and asks him “what’s with this poster of Jim Belushi?” and he replies “John! He was a genius”. More like a comedic genius! Whenever you see a list of the greatest SNL cast members of all time, Belushi is almost always towards the top of the list, if not #1. The fact that Belushi died in 1982 at the age of 33, made his performances that much more special. Sure there’s been some great SNL cast members, but he was a force of nature and his scene-stealing performances in movies like Animal House and The Blues Brothers are now legendary.

Director R.J. Cutler has delivered an epic documentary that Belushi truly deserves. Using audio from an oral history of John Belushi, extremely rare letters, home movies and photos, this is a very comprehensive doc. It shows Belushi’s early beginning in suburban Illinois, his early taste of performing, and then his evolution to National Lampoon, Second City and eventual a part of the very first cast of SNL. But the doc also does not shy away from his demons, which eventually lead to his fatal drug overdose.

In the last decade there have been several docs on SNL cast members including Chris Farley (I Am Chris Farley), Darrell Hammond (Cracked Up), Bill Murray (The Bill Murray Stories), and Gilda Radner (Love, Gilda - check out my interview with director Lisa D’Apolito). Admittedly, some of those docs are better than others. But as a die-hard fan of SNL and the show’s history, I always check out these docs. Belushi benefits from the rare access they got to the archival footage and the access to the interviewees from the oral history including Carrie Fisher, Harold Ramis, Lorne Michaels, Chevy Chase, Dan Aykroyd, John Landis and John’s brother Jim Belushi. When they didn’t have archival footage, they made use of some cool animation too. This is definitely worth checking out!

Belushi premieres on Showtime on Sunday: https://www.sho.com/titles/3433572/belushi

Top 7 Comfort Movies

Tagged by @wildlingoftarth.

I could easily make a far, far longer list than this, but these are the first ones that popped into my head.

1. While You Were Sleeping— I have seen this movie countless times, and I still adore it. Funny, touching, and packed with all the best tropes. It’s like a warm hug.

2. Dogfight— I first saw this movie when I was a teenager, and it has been in my top 5 all-time favorites for the subsequent 20+ years. Fellow Jaime x Brienne shippers, if you haven’t seen this, I implore you: find a way.

3. North and South—This slot could really be filled by a host of period films, but I picked this one because...well, Richard Armitage. Need I say more?

4. You’ve Got Mail—I have loved Tom Hanks ever since I saw him in A League of Their Own (which could easily have been in this list, by the way, except it felt a little like cheating!), and I so enjoy him and Meg Ryan in this movie. This might actually be the genesis of my love for the “enemies to friends to lovers” trope, now that I think about it...

5. Ever After—My idea of the perfect fairy tale film. I *may* have a Google doc with plot notes for turning this into a JB fic...if someone else hasn’t done it already.

6. The Holiday—Almost entirely for the Kate Winslet/Jack Black part of the story. This is my go-to movie when I’m ill or otherwise in need of being cheered up.

7. Race the Sun—A childhood favorite that I owned on VHS and watched about a bajillion times. Feel-good, inspirational teen movie about the triumphant underdogs, featuring a wonderfully snarky Jim Belushi? Yes please.

I tag @shipping-receiving, @hardlyfatal , @julieoftarth, @renee561, @forbiddenfantasies1, @snowymary and anyone else who wants to give it a go.

15 Prendas y accesorios que el cine convirtió en verdaderos íconos populares

Compártelo en Facebook

Tuitéalo

A los espléndido de los abriles, el cine nos ha brindado entretenimiento, grandes historias, actuaciones, bandas sonoras inolvidables, a tal punto que es inútil imaginar nuestras vidas sin la existencia de las películas. Gracias a ellas, nuestro mundo se ha llenado de escenas memorables y frases que forman parte de nuestra vida cotidiana. Y no solo eso: las películas además nos han dejado prendas de vestir que se han vuelto icónicas para la civilización pop e, incluso, algunas de ellas han llegado a convertirse en moda.

Genial.guru preparó un lista con 15 prendas que el cine ha vuelto célebres y que, seguramente, todos nuestros lectores reconocerán en un porrazo de aspecto.

1. El traje amarillo de Bruce Lee

El traje amarillo que luce Uma Thurman en Kill Bill, y que se ha transformado en todo un ícono del cine, es, en efectividad, un homenaje a Bruce Lee, que usa un traje similar en El juego de la muerte, la película que el figura de las artes marciales se encontraba rodando cuando murió trágicamente. Como el conocido acostumbrado a sus películas era mucho beocio que el de los fanáticos de Tarantino, no alcanzó la repercusión (ni en críticas ni en número de espectadores) que la venganza de la novia de Bill obtuvo en el mundo; por ello, podemos afirmar que el traje amarillo se transformó en ícono gracias a Kill Bill.

2. El traje, el sombrero y los anteojos negros de Los Hermanos Caradura

En 1980, la película del dúo cómico y musical Los Hermanos Caradura, formado por John Belushi y Dan Aykroyd, inició el camino que la convertiría en una película de culto. John y Dan lucían indumentaria que, para la época, podía considerarse anticuada. Sin secuestro, ellos, al incorporar los prismáticos oscuros y su impronta alocada y reacio, la volvieron parte del mundo del rock. Hablamos del traje enfadado, el sombrero y los antejos oscuros, que ya son todo un ícono del cine.

3. Los calzoncillos con tirantes de La naranja mecánica

Dirigida por Stanley Kubrik y estrenada en 1971, La naranja mecánica, más allá de las críticas positivas que obtuvo, generó polémicas por sus escenas de violencia. Sin duda, se trataba de una cruda crítica social que despertó fanatismo, sobre todo, en el conocido verde. Los calzoncillos con tirantes, el sombrero y los borceguíes se convirtieron en una relato de la contracultura.

4. La sudadera de Electrodanza

Electrodanza contaba la historia de una verde obrera que tenía el sueño de convertirse en bayadera. Tanto por la música como por la historia de coito que la protagonista vivía con el dueño de la taller en la que ella trabajaba, la película se convirtió en un éxito. La sudadera de amplio cuota que lucía Jennifer Beals se hizo famosa entre las jóvenes y las adolescentes de la época, a tal punto que se convirtió en una moda.

5. El traje blanco de John Travolta en Fiebre de sábado por la confusión

Los setenta fueron los abriles de la música disco, y Fiebre de sábado por la noche es, sin duda, la mejor patrón de esa moda. La historia tenía coito, rebeldía, crítica social y, sobre todo, mucha música y mucho zapateo. La costado sonora estaba integrada por las canciones más famosas de los Bee Gees. La número del zapateo en la que John Travolta luce un traje blanco con camisa negra ha hecho que esa indumentaria se convirtiera en todo un ícono y una relato de esos abriles.

6. El traje de Los cazafantasmas

Uno de los grandes éxitos de los abriles ochenta fue Los cazafantasmas, en cuyo guion participó uno de sus protagonistas, Dan Aykroyd, que anteriormente mencionamos como miembro de Los Hermanos Caradura. La canción de la película fue un éxito de la música pop de esos abriles y el equipo de trabajo que usaba el colección de cazadores de fantasmas merece, sin dudas, ser parte de esta relación. El logo del equipo, con el sombra cruzado por la guión roja fue tan popular que los jóvenes de la época lo lucían en remeras y en camisas.

7. La chaqueta de Top Gun: pasión y prestigio

Otro clásico de la término del 80. La película Top Gun: pasión y gloria, que convirtió a Tom Cruise en una sino mundial, fue un éxito en su época. Una de las canciones de la costado sonora, “Take My Breath Away”, de la agrupación Berlin, fue uno de los “lentos” más famosos de la término, a tal punto que, al igual que la película, ha atrapado la categoría de clásico. El personaje de Tom Cruise hizo que el estilo de sus prismáticos oscuros y su chaqueta se convirtieran en icónicos.

8. La impermeable y el sombrero de Humphrey Bogart en Casablanca

Indudablemente, Casablanca es uno de los grandes clásicos de todos los tiempos, y no es posible musitar de la historia del cine sin mencionarla. Ha dejado escenas memorables, frases que hemos escuchado miles de veces, como “Siempre nos quedará París”, o “Presiente que este es el inicio de una hermosa amistad”, “Tócala, Sam. Toca ’Según pasan los años’”. Y no solo eso: la impermeable y el sombrero de Humphrey Bogart han quedado tan unidos a él que es muy difícil pensar en esas prendas sin que nos venga a la mente la imagen del actor.

9. La camiseta sin mangas de Marlon Brando en Un tranvía llamado Deseo

La película Un tranvía llamado Deseo, basada en una obra de Tennessee Williams, es otro clásico del cine. Marlon Brando, su protagonista, se convirtió en una sino mundial, y el atuendo que usaba, aunque sencillo, alcanzó además la categoría de ícono. Hablamos de su musculosa blanca, que le permitía a Brando exponer su físico y convertirse en un apuesto que no necesitaba de vestimenta lujosa para destacarse.

10. El vestido blanco de Marilyn Monroe en La comezón del séptimo año

Marilyn Monroe es una de las mujeres más icónicas de la historia del cine. Más allá de su talento como actriz, su imagen ha impresionado una época. La figura esbelta y sofisticada que promulgaba Hollywood por medio de sus estrellas femeninas, a partir de Marilyn, cambiaría para siempre. Y no se puede musitar de ella sin memorar la famosa número de La comezón del séptimo año, en la cual la falda de su vestido blanco se levantaba y dejaba expuestas sus piernas. Es, quizás, una de las escenas más icónicas de la historia del cine. Por eso, su vestido blanco debía estar incluido en este lista.

11. La chaqueta de cuero de Brad Pitt en El club de la pelea

El club de la pelea contaba una historia extraña, violenta, plagada de humor enfadado y de desencanto. En su momento, fue un éxito y, con los abriles, se ganó la categoría de clásico. El personaje interpretado por Brad Pitt era un símbolo de liderazgo, sensualidad, audacia y rebeldía. Elegir el vestuario para un personaje así debió activo sido un desafío para los vestuaristas, pero lo superaron. Y la chaqueta que usaba es otro ícono cinematográfico.

12. El pañuelo y los anteojos de Susan Sarandon en Thelma y Louise

Dirigida por Ridley Scott, Thelma y Louise fue uno de los grandes éxitos de la término del 90. La película fue considerada un emblema, y muchas mujeres vieron en las protagonistas la representación de un nuevo tipo de mujer que se rebelaba delante el sometimiento y la crueldad del mundo de los hombres. Más allá de esa ojeada, que actualmente puede discutirse, lo cierto es que los dos personajes se convirtieron en un ícono del cine, y el pañuelo y los anteojos que usaba Louise se ganaron un espacio en esta relación.

13. El vestido de la princesa Leia en Star Wars: Episodio IV — una nueva esperanza

Y en este lista no podía eludir el personaje afeminado de la que fuera la primera entrega de la dinastía de Star Wars. La princesa Leia, encarnada por Carrie Fisher, es uno de los personajes más queridos y recordados de este clásico del cine. Su particular peinado y su vestido blanco, sin dudas, son verdaderos íconos contemporáneos.

14. El traje violáceo del Guasón en El desinteresado de la confusión

Para muchos, El caballero de la noche es la mejor película de Batman de todos los tiempos, y lo cierto es que en IMDb tiene un puntaje de 9,0, lo que la ubica entre las mejores puntuadas del sitio. Sin secuestro, el personaje del Guasón, interpretado por Heath Ledger, fue tan importante como Batman en la película. Su gala fue brillante y le valió un premio Óscar póstumo en la categoría mejor actor de reparto. La demencial vestimenta del personaje es sin duda otro ícono del cine y de la civilización popular.

15. El vestido de Natassja Kinski en Paris, Texas

Escrita por Sam Sheppard y dirigida por Win Wenders, Paris, Texas es una de las grandes películas de la historia del cine. Profunda y ascética, la historia de “Travis”, el extraño hombre que aparece perdido en el desierto posteriormente de haberse alejado por abriles de su grupo, es uno de los grandes clásicos del cine universal. El vestido que utiliza Natassja Kinski en la desgarradora número final es todo un ícono del séptimo arte, sobre todo para los cinéfilos de todo el mundo.

¿Cuál de todos estas prendas es, para ti, la más icónica de la civilización popular? ¿Has usado alguna de ellas para asistir a una fiesta de disfraces? ¿Tienes una foto para compartirla con nosotros? Por distinción, cuéntanos en los comentarios.

Mark Metcalf on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson

Are you kidding me! I suspected from the first email from Mark Metcalf that we were gonna have fun, but wow! This time with Mark exceeded all my high hoped-for expectations.

The Maestro, The Master, yes, but for me, Mark has always been Neidermeyer. Even when he’s appearing in Ally McBeal, Hill Street Blues, One Life to Live, Oscar, Jag, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Seinfeld, Star Trek Voyager, Mad Men, that smug bad boy always shines through and makes me smile. Now, having met him, engaged with him, he's all of the above and so much more.

I must see him do Shakespeare. On stage. And watch, once again, his brilliant, Chilly Scenes of Winter. As well as the doc about him: The Appeal of Being Typecast by Hollywood | The New Yorker Documentary https://bit.ly/3xwSvbr

We talked Animal House, of course, lots on John Landis, Belushi, a great story about Donald Sutherland, how he got there, what he did once there, and the fun, the fun, the fun. Mark told great stories about Mike Nichols, Herbert Bergdorf, Uta Hagen, Jack Nicholson… I want more! We barely scratched the surface, not even touching Twisted Sister, Buffy, his restauranteur days… I honored my promise to cease after an hour, but have him back, we shall. He assured. I trust he is a gentleman of his word. What a lovely, fun, intelligent, thoughtful, accessible man. More soon. Promise.

Loved him before, adore him now more.

Titles perused thus far...

So as I mentioned a couple weeks (?) ago, I have searched my local libraries for pretty much any movie that the late, great Harold Ramis ever acted in, wrote/co-wrote for, or directed. With that, I have watched:

1) Bedazzled (2000 version)

2) Baby Boom

3) The Ice Harvest

4) Love Affair (1994 version)

5) Belushi (documentary he's quoted in)

and 6) just finished up (mainly skipping to his interviews) the Director's Cut of "American Storytellers" (I LOVE e-Bay!)

I REALLY want to find a copy of "Stealing Home" (playing Mark Harmon's old school/baseball buddy) and...maybe "Orange County" (more scenes of the college admissions dean tripping on acid, maybe? XD)

Not to mention that I watched my blu-ray copy of GB1 WITH the commentary track for the first time in...years. (wrote down some fantastic quotes, more on that later.)

Soon to arrive (also from e-Bay) is a doc on Second City TV; that should be cool, as I really do like the other cast members in general.

Anyway, keeping track of my progress. I ain't done yet, folks =)
