  • Adrien Brody On: Wes Anderson, the Pianist and All His History in the Theater
    August 30, 2020 Esquire: Interviews Adrien Brody on: Wes Anderson, The Pianist and all his history in the theater By Alex Villatoro Impressions: 203,500 e meet Adrien Brody with the nostalgic gaze - the owner of one of the noses with W the most personality in the world - at the cozy Waldorf Astoria in New York for this exclusive session with Esquire Mexico. Enjoy it as much as we did preparing it. There are moments in life where things seem to make sense… but this is not one of those moments ”, were the words that came from the actor Adrien Brody when he won the Oscar for El Pianista, becoming –at 29 years old– the youngest actor to earn the statuette , since Richard Dreyfuss did it for Goodbye Girl in 1977. A few seconds earlier, Adrien Brody had jumped onto the stage of the then Kodak Theater, in the heart of Hollywood, taking the presenter of his gold award, Halley Berry, by surprise with a kiss on the mouth that would go down in Academy history as one of his most euphoric and controversial moments. August 30, 2020 Esquire: Interviews Over the years, Adrien Brody's words have also transcended since that spring of 2002, representing that disbelief at being chosen for something greater and being inserted into an extraordinary situation. The times of 2020, which have confined humanity after the effects of Covid-19, make powerful reflection on trying to find a meaning where apparently there is none.

Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2019 Abstract Wes Anderson has been designated by many as one of the first ‘Indiewood’ directors. While his films possess a quirky, atypical, and oddball visual and aesthetic style, at least one of his films, The Royal Tenenbaums, offers performances of gender and race—particularly of white masculinity—that reinforce a number of gender and racial stereotypes (Beynon, 2002; Buchbinder, 2013; Connell, 1995; Kimmel, 1996; Moss, 2011). In this thesis, I conduct a critical textual analysis on The Royal Tenenbaums to illuminate the retrogressive gender and racial ideas that Anderson uses to constitute various performances or models of white masculinity.

  • Screendollars About Films, the Film Industry No
    For Exhibitors February 17, 2020 Screendollars About Films, the Film Industry No. 104 Newsletter and Cinema Advertising The success of IT (2017) and IT Chapter 2 (2019) created a franchise for Warner Bros., ensuring that we will be seeing more of the evil clown Pennywise in the years to come. However, these horror films based on the 1986 novel by Stephen King were not Hollywood’s first success with IT. The title was first made famous by the 1927 silent film romantic comedy starring Clara Bow. IT tells the story of a charismatic young woman who catches the eye of the handsome, wealthy owner of the department store where she is working. She becomes known as the “IT Girl", admired for her unique combination of wit, energy and beauty. Paramount released the film to theatres nationwide on 2/19/1927. IT represents the essence of the Roaring 20’s cultural aesthetic in America.
