Dame Judi Dench famously won an Oscar for her eight- minute portrayal of Queen Elizabeth in Shakespeare in Love. Well, her performance as Old Deuteronomy in Cats lasted a lot longer than that - and she hasn’t even been nominated?! Is this the height of hypocrisy? I’d say so.

It’s not a cartoon, necessarily, but you can’t sit there and tell me those cats aren’t animated. They jump around, sing and dance. If that’s not animation, I don’t know what is. Judi Dench: Snubbed.

I’d like to see any of these guys get a bunch of A-list celebrities in cat costumes and tell them to bounce around and act like cats - cats that can sing and dance.

(Image: Universal Pictures) Best documentary feature nominees: AMERICAN FACTORY, THE CAVE, THE EDGE OF DEMOCRACY, FOR SAMA, HONEYLAND Cats isn’t technically a documentary, but it’s the truest depiction of cats you’ll ever see.

    Re-mixing Old Character Tropes on Screen: Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and the New Femininity By Melina Kristine Dabney A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Film Studies 2017 This thesis entitled: Re-mixing Old Character Tropes on Screen: Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and the new Femininity written by Melina Kristine Dabney has been approved for the Department of Film Studies ________________________________________________ (Melinda Barlow, Ph.D., Committee Chair) ________________________________________________ (Suranjan Ganguly, Ph.D., Committee Member) ________________________________________________ (Reiland Rabaka, Ph.D., Committee Member) Date: The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we Find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards Of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. Dabney, Melina Kristine (BA/MA Film Studies) Re-mixing Old Character Tropes on Screen: Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and the New Femininity Thesis directed by Professor Melinda Barlow While there is a substantial amount of scholarship on the depiction of African American women in film and television, this thesis exposes the new formations of African American femininity on screen. African American women have consistently resisted, challenged, submitted to, and remixed racial myths and sexual stereotypes existing in American cinema and television programming. Mainstream film and television practices significantly contribute to the reinforcement of old stereotypes in contemporary black women characters. However, based on the efforts of African American producers like Shonda Rhimes, who has attempted to insert more realistic renderings of African American women in her recent television shows, black women’s representation is undergoing yet another shift in contemporary media.

    Text: Carolyn Melian BRINGING A WHOLE new MEANING to that TIME-HONOURED phrase, ‘charity BEGINS at HOME’, whether you want to save THE EARTH, THE myriad OF LIFE FORMS that INHABIT IT, OR would LIKE to DO your BIT to HELP ONE OF THE seemingly never ENDING humanitarian CRISES afflicting THE globe – THE Nargis Cyclone that’S recently devastated Burma, A rash OF tornadoes across THE US, AND THE deadly earthquake that HAS HIT Sichuan IN SOUTHWEST CHINA - making A HUGE DIFFERENCE to any ONE OF THOUSANDS OF worthy causes IS JUST A MOUSE CLICK away. Focusing on the eradication of world hunger, a simple daily click on this site’s yellow ‘Click Here To Give’ button helps provide food to those in need, and won’t cost you a single penny. Food is donated by the sponsors and distributed by Mercy Corps worldwide and by America’s Second Harvest to food banks across the US. And if you really want to put your money where your mouth is, by shopping at their online store - specialising in fair-trade and handcrafted items from around the globe – you’ll be lending them even more support. With an estimated 27 million people still in bonded labour around the world, and 126 million children in work harmful to their health and welfare, this is the website of the world’s oldest human rights organisation founded in 1839. Campaigning against shameful issues such as the forced labour and exploitation of domestic workers in the Philippines, slavery by descent, and people trafficking, it also highlights the importance of exercising consumer power when it comes to choosing chocolate, hand- knotted rugs, and high street fashion.

Steven Tyler United States - 19 May 2011 Many contestants who audition for American Idol tell moving and emotional stories. Perhaps the most touching of them was told by Chris Medina who performed Breakeven by The Scripts at the auditions in Chicago. He told the judges of his fiancée Juliana Ramos who had suffered a brain injury after a car accident that left her in a wheelchair – able to move only her left arm and little more. After Chris sang, he brought his fian- cée to the audition room at the judges’ request. While Randy Jackson and Jennifer Lopez intro- duced themselves, Steven Tyler shook her hand saying: “Hi, girl. I just heard your fiancée sing, and he’s so good.” He added in a warm, tender whisper: “That’s why he sings so good, because he sings to you.” The New York Times called the moment “a stellar embrace” and praised Tyler as “deeply practiced and deeply humane” and an “unalloyed genius”.
