    ARAB TIMES, MONDAY, MAY 3, 2021 NEWS/FEATURES 13 People & Places Obits Author Matthews dead Oscar-winning actress Dukakis dies aged 89 MAPLEWOOD, NJ, May 2, (AP): Olympia Duka- kis, the veteran stage and screen actor whose fl air for maternal roles helped her win an Oscar as Cher’s mother in the romantic comedy “Moonstruck,” has died. She was 89. Dukakis died Saturday morning in her home in New York City, according to Allison Levy, her agent at In- novative Artists. A cause of death was not immedi- ately released, but her family said in a statement that she had been in failing health for months. Dukakis won her Oscar through a surprising chain of circumstances, beginning with author Nora Ephron’s recommendation that she play Meryl Streep’s mother in the fi lm version of Ephron’s book “Heartburn.” Du- kakis got the role, but her scenes were cut from the fi lm. To make it up to her, director Mike Nichols cast her in his hit play “Social Se- curity.” Director Norman Jew- ison saw her in that role and cast her in “Moonstruck.” Dukakis won the Oscar for best supporting actress and Cher took home the trophy for best actress. She referred to her 1988 win as “the year of the Dukakii” because it was also the year Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis Dukakis, her cousin, was the Democratic Party’s presiden- tial nominee. At the ceremony, she held her Oscar high over her head and called out: “OK, Michael, let’s go!” Members of the Chinese music group Produce Pandas, (from left), Husky, Otter, Mr 17, Cass, and DING strike a pose while practicing dance choreography dur- In 1989, her Oscar statuette was stolen from Duka- ing rehearsals in Beijing, April 15, 2021.

    Kirk Douglas. «El Hombre Más Odiado De Hollywood»

    Juan Tejero Crítica Kirk Douglas. «El hombre más odiado de Hollywood» Kirk Douglas. «The most hated man in Hollywood» Juan Tejero* Entre los muchos actores surgidos durante las últimas décadas en el cine norteamericano, pocos han asegurado la continuidad de su carrera con tanta convicción y éxito arrollador como Kirk Douglas. Quiso ser, desde un principio, un actor de envergadura y, para conseguirlo, apuntó siempre muy alto. Su extraordinaria fuerza interpretativa, su apostura física y su inmenso talento dramático le convirtieron enseguida en una de las más rutilantes estrellas de posguerra. En la pantalla era una fuerza de la naturaleza, un individuo de energía desbordada que siempre, incluso en sus peores trabajos, ofrecía momentos de sorprendente vitalidad. Esa desmesurada y compulsiva implicación emocional con los atormentados e impulsivos personajes que le tocaron en suerte le labraron su fama de «duro» y el apodo de «el hombre más odiado de Hollywood». Pero Douglas no sólo fue un intérprete de talla excepcional, además personificó con su carácter rebelde y luchador al actor que, decidido a ser dueño absoluto de su destino, se convierte en productor para participar de manera más activa en todos los aspectos creativos de una película. Es en este aspecto donde surgen las comparaciones con otro astro de su generación: Burt Lancaster. De hecho, hay gente que no sabe distinguir entre los dos actores. Y es extraño, porque en realidad no se parecen mucho. Quizá sea porque han hecho unas cuantas películas juntos o porque ambos encarnan como nadie a la estrella de cine masculina de posguerra: más que intérpretes, son * El autor fundó (1992) la revista Cinerama, que dirigió durante nueve años, y en 1998 T&B Editores (www.cinemitos.com).
