  • Lauren Graham and Peter Krause: Friends First
    Lauren Graham and Peter Krause: Friends First Former Gilmore Girl, Lauren Graham, recently revealed that her low-profile relationship with Parenthood co-star Peter Krause started as a friendship. The two met 15 years ago when the actress first moved to Los Angeles. Instead of playing the “dating game” like most couples do when they’re first attracted to each other, Graham and Krause got acquainted over board games. As the actress told People, “I think we liked each other [but] he asked me over to his house to play a board game — and that’s exactly what we ended up doing. So I was like, ‘This guy doesn’t like me. Who actually plays a board game?’ … The timing wasn’t right. I don’t think either of us was ready.” Does starting out as friends make you a better couple? Cupid’s Advice: Your significant other is usually also your best friend. It’s very important for couples to not only to share a physical relationship, but also to be able to relate to one another on an intellectual level. The best relationships tend to have a healthy balance between both physical and emotional attraction. 1. The friend zone: Anyone who has seen the film Just Friends starring Ryan Reynolds knows just how frustrating it is when one party is interested in pursuing a relationship, while the other is content with the “status quo.” This proves that being good friends doesn’t necessarily mean that more than that is possible. 2. Getting to know each other: To have a serious relationship, you really have to get to know your partner.

  • “The Melissa Mccarthy Effect”: Feminism, Body
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School “THE MELISSA MCCARTHY EFFECT”: FEMINISM, BODY REPRESENTATION AND WOMEN-CENTERED COMEDIES A Dissertation in Mass Communications by Catherine Bednarz © 2020 Catherine Bednarz Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2020 ii The dissertation of Catherine Bednarz was reviewed and approved by the following: Matthew P. McAllister Professor of Communications Chair of Graduate Programs Dissertation Adviser Co-Chair of Committee Michelle Rodino-Colocino Associate Professor of Communications Co-Chair of Committee Kevin Hagopian Teaching Professor of Communications Lee Ahern Associate Professor of Communications iii Abstract Immediately following its release in 2011, Bridesmaids was met with enormous critical praise as a woman-centered and feminist comedy. This praise was due to the largely female cast of characters in a major film comedy, a rarity in Hollywood. Women face sexism at every level of Hollywood, especially in comedy, so the success of a woman-led movie within the comedy genre was significant. Reviewers described the triumph of Bridesmaids as a game changer, claiming it would open the door to other woman-fronted comedies. This potential was labeled the “Bridesmaids Effect” (Friendly, 2011) by reviewers. However, while some comediennes may have benefitted from the success, I argue that the influence may be more accurately described as a “Melissa McCarthy” effect. This is particularly significant because though there have been several notable and successful female comedians before Melissa McCarthy, very few would be considered fat and feminist. The presence of fat women is not accurately reflected in mass media (Henerson, 2001).

    Dan Gross: Mary Mason looking to buy By Dan Gross Philadelphia Daily News MARY MASON is traveling the country hoping to buy a radio station. "No more just working, I want to purchase," a station, she told us Monday, before taking off for more travel. Mason says she has put a "good group together, a small group," of investors. The longtime 1340 WHAT host was unreachable to provide more details on her pursuit. Since the demise of the station's African-American talk-radio format, Mason has most recently hosted a Saturday show on WWDB 860-AM. Strug says he's feeling fine now "I'm gonna live," said NBC 10 reporter Mike Strug yesterday, calling in response to a voicemail we had left him. Strug spent Tuesday night at Abington Memorial Hospital, from which he's about to be released, after he felt a "rapid heartbeat," and figuring better safe than sorry, drove himself to the hospital. Strug says doctors told him it wasn't his heart and says he feels fine now. He expects to take off today but plans to be back at work tomorrow night.

The original series, broadcast on the WB Network (2000-2007) was nested into the everyday life of women in American society. It included a mother/daughter duo that problematized what it meant to be a feminist during its initial run. This project considers: How Gilmore Girls might be understood as a feminist intervention in 21st century US television? Prior research into the show is limited and fails to explore feminism and the show in general.

    The Power of Film Colin McGinn The Power of Film The “POWER” is connected to our “HUMANITY” in specific ways: • AS HUMANS, we are HARD-WIRED for storytelling as a social/cultural bond. • We are biologically Eye/ear-CENTRIC. • The mind-movie problem = how a 2 dimensional moving image hooks our consciousness. • According to M, The more realistic (verisimilitude) a story is the more impactful. o This power is unique to film (TV and video as well) o “Film connects to the human psyche in a deep way.” Stanley Cavell o Movies appeal to us at unconscious psychological levels. (Freud) o The mind seems to step into another sphere of engagement as the images on the screen flood into our receptive consciousness. o Altered state of consciousness is enthralling and irresistible. • Sacred form of Art? Individual Power of Film • Demographic Power: Movies have a larger mass appeal than most other artistic media. Cross-Cultural. • We have a very BASIC “natural literacy” for understanding movies. (Noel Carroll) • Movies AMPLIFY/ACCENTUATE reality through HEIGHTENED stories via powerful images, special FX, audio, dialogue, music. • Offers us “fiction” (a better more entertaining world). • We want to be fooled?! • Movies are NOT mirrors of reality. • Movies support/reinforce the prevailing social/ideological viewpoints in society.

  • Talking As Fast As I Can Lauren Graham Bog PDF Epub
    Talking As Fast As I Can Hent bøger PDF Lauren Graham Talking As Fast As I Can Lauren Graham Hent PDF Forlaget skriver: A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER: with a new bonus chapter! In this collection of personal essays, the beloved star of Gilmore Girls and Parenthood reveals stories about life, love, and working as a woman in Hollywood - along with behind-the- scenes dispatches from the set of the new Gilmore Girls, where she plays the fast-talking Lorelai Gilmore once again. In Talking As Fast As I Can, Lauren Graham hits pause for a moment and looks back on her life, sharing laugh-out-loud stories about growing up, starting out as an actress, and, years later, sitting in her trailer on the Parenthood set and asking herself, "Did you, um, make it?" She opens up about the challenges of being single in Hollywood ("Strangers were worried about me; that´s how long I was single!"), the time she was asked to audition her butt for a role, and her experience being a judge on Project Runway ("It´s like I had a fashion-induced blackout"). In "What It Was Like, Part One" Graham sits down for an epic Gilmore Girls marathon and reflects on being cast as the fast-talking Lorelai Gilmore. The essay "What It Was Like, Part Two" reveals how it felt to pick up the role again nine years later, and what doing so has meant to her. Some more things you will learn about Lauren: She once tried to go vegan just to bond with Ellen DeGeneres, she´s aware that meeting guys at awards shows has its pitfalls ("If you´re meeting someone for the first time after three hours of hair, makeup, and styling, you´ve already set the bar too high"), and she´s a card-carrying REI shopper ("My bungee cords now earn points!").
