The set design for the 88th annual production, For the Record, called for a massive 11-foot-diameter rotating globe suspended above the stage and wrapped in the masthead of the show’s fictional newspaper, the Chicago Offering. Northwestern’s set, scenery, and paint shops are located in the Virginia Wadsworth Wirtz Center for the Performing Arts, but Waa-Mu is performed in Cahn Auditorium. How to pull off such a planetary transplant? By deflating Earth. The globe began as a plain white (albeit custom-built) inflatable balloon, but after its initial multisection muslin wrap was created (to determine shrinkage), it was deflated, rigged, reinflated, motorized, map-designed, taped for a paint mask, primed, painted, and unpeeled to reveal computer-generated, to-scale continents.

  • Mark Kermode's Best Films of 2019
    Mark Kermode’s best films of 2019 @KermodeMovie - The Guardian Sun 29 Dec 2019 06.00 GMTLast modified on Tue 31 Dec 2019 15.51 GMT 2019 was the year that Netflix movies came of age, and ageing actors were made young again. At the 91st Oscars in February, the bland Green Book beat the superior BlackKklansman to the best picture award, although Spike Leewon his first competitive Oscar in the adapted screenplay category. Rami Malik scooped best actor for his portrayal of Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody, but best actress Olivia Colman (The Favourite) stole the evening with one of the funniest and most self- deprecating acceptance speeches ever (complete with raspberry-blowing). More significantly, Alfonso Cuarón’s Roma won for cinematography, direction and best foreign language film, despite naysayers’ complaints that Netflix-backed movies were essentially made-for-TV films. That attitude is now history: in the forthcoming awards season, the platform has several contenders, including Noah Baumbach’s Marriage Story and Martin Scorsese’s The Irishman. The Irishman marked a watershed moment for “digital de-ageing”, with innovative technology allowing Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and Joe Pesci to play characters much younger than themselves. We’ve seen de-aging elsewhere (from Captain Marvel to Gemini Man), but never this unobtrusively. Alongside the release of its first original animated feature, Sergio Pablos’s Klaus, Netflix also picked up distribution rights for I Lost My Body, which made history when it took the top prize in the Critics’ Week section at Cannes in May. More family-friendly releases – Frozen II, Toy Story 4 and a weirdly photorealist rehash of The Lion King – may have dominated the box office in 2019, but I Lost My Body was my favourite animated film of the year.

  • ACRONYM 11 - Round 5
    ACRONYM 11 - Round 5 1. A location in this series has a jukebox that onlys play live versions of Eagles songs and ​ contains a large amount of beer that is always warm. One character on this series responds to a problem by kicking a woman's dog into the sun. A silver-haired (*) architect on this ​ series constructs a special neighborhood ostensibly for those who lived quality lives, such as the silent monk Jianyu. After being hit by a truck, Eleanor Shellstrop finds herself in the heaven-like title location of, for 10 points, what NBC comedy starring Ted Danson and Kristen Bell? ANSWER: The Good Place <Nelson> ​ ​ 2. Chargers coach Don Coryell helped innovate the role of this football position with the ​ help of future hall of famer Kellen Winslow. Due to a difference in team sizes, this position is exceedingly rare in Canadian football. Before becoming a coach, Mike (*) Ditka played ​ this position, which was also played by Shannon Sharpe and currently played by Delanie Walker. Long-time Kansas City Chief Tony Gonzalez holds nearly every record for players with, for 10 points, what hybrid offensive position now played by Jason Witten and Rob Gronkowski? ANSWER: tight end <Nelson> ​ ​ 3. A George Cukor film based on this work cast John Barrymore as an unusually old ​ version of a secondary character. A 2013 film based on this work co-starred Douglas Booth and Hailee Steinfeld. Laurence Olivier had an uncredited role delivering a monologue in a 1968 Franco (*) Zeffirelli film based on this work. A 1996 film based on this work depicted a ​ brand of gun named "Dagger" in order to preserve this work's original dialogue.

  • How "The Lion King" Remake Is Different from the Animated Version by USA Today, Adapted by Newsela Staff on 07.29.19 Word Count 854 Level MAX
    How "The Lion King" remake is different from the animated version By USA Today, adapted by Newsela staff on 07.29.19 Word Count 854 Level MAX Image 1. Mufasa (left) and Simba in a scene from Disney's animated "The Lion King" which was released in 1994. Photo by: Disney Studios How does Disney tell the story of a lion becoming king in 2019? Well, largely the same way it did in 1994. This time the movie studio is using photorealistic computer-generated imagery (CGI). Jon Favreau's remake of "The Lion King" (in theaters since July 19) brings Simba, Nala, Scar and the whole pride back to the big screen with new voice talent but much of the original plot intact. Fans of the animated classic get those moments they love: Simba's sneeze, the cub's presentation to the kingdom, Timon and Pumbaa's vulture-kicking entrance. Even much of the dialogue is identical to that of the 25-year-old movie. But there are some changes that add a half-hour of running time to the story. Here are a few notable updates, aside from the obvious fact that the animals no longer look like cartoons. Be prepared for a different version of Scar's sinister song, and for new Beyoncé music. This time, Scar (Chiwetel Ejiofor) doesn't so much croon "Be Prepared" as deliver his signature song like a dark, militaristic monologue. In place of a catchy chorus and humorous digs at hyenas This article is available at 5 reading levels at https://newsela.com.
