Alex and Nick’s childhood friend Don (Dominic Fumasa) is also set to arrive with his wife-of-many-years Lynn (Jessica Hecht), as are Alice’s pregnant friend Eve (Dagmara Dominczyk) and her husband Steven (Corey Stoll) Any thoughts of a perfect weekend are quickly thrown out the window as Nick arrives with only a cooler of meat and the news that he and Lola have recently called it quits. Don and Lynn show up a few minutes later deep in an argument. Finally, Eve and Steven make it to the cabin with a surprise guest in tow—Eve’s friend Helena, who was a bridesmaid with Alice at Eve’s wedding.

Since the source is the internet, the reader is advised to also authenticate. The link is: http://www.subvertednation.net/jew-lists/ The below link from the Jewish Virtual Library contains many of the names identified on pages 36 – 38. http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/US- Israel/obamajews.html Jewish Influence: An Introduction We have been accused of having “Jew on the brain”; of being negatively obsessed with the Jews, and of being “anti-Semitic.” Yet Jewish influence over the affairs of the world are undeniably powerful, far out of proportion to their numbers. Their role in shaping public opinion through their media interests, and their mastering of the world of business and trade is pivotal to the world economy. As a group they are the most successful in terms of income and wealth and they have reached the highest echelons or the pinnacle of power in every field. Jews are the masters of Hollywood, they are the masters of all forms of media, radio, and television. They are masters of trade and commerce and banking, medicine, and law. The following lists we believe prove this reality. Jewish Lists The lists below are available on the internet. A spot check of several of the names found it to be generally accurate, though we cannot vouch for ALL of the names, and some titles may be out of date. The second list claims to be updated in 2012.

  • Hollywood...Now What?
    Welcome to Hollywood ...Now What? An inspiring collection of blogs by BRIAN MEDAVOY TESTIMONIALS: "If only more people were not afraid to show they are human and not have a need for yes men/women to constantly stroke you...those who walk alongside you into the storm, at every twist and turn of the tornado -come out fearless and a storm maker themselves..." "Honestly, just reading through your posts and reading the story of your rise and fall to going back up again reinvigorated my fire to keep going. This is a tough industry to navigate and for an ethnic minority like me it will probably continue to be tough. So for someone of your caliber taking the time to write blogs that help actors and creatives and going to speak at acting school(I watched the one where you spoke at Howard Fine)makes me feel that there are movers and shaker in the industry that are for the actors." "What drew me to writing this email is your website/blog. Not only is it rare for a manager like yourself to take the time to create content like you do, but the why behind it is the most inspiring. It's not to promote anything, it's not to attain something, it's not for financial gain. It's simply to connect & inspire. That alone tells me exactly the type of human being you are." "What I assumed would be a typical Q&A turned into a motivational, inspirational and humbling experience. I can't thank you enough not only for your supportive responses to our questions, but also for opening up your vulnerability and allowing the audience to experience your insecurities with you.
