  • 1 Forever Alone in a Crowd, Arthur Fleck Seeks Connection. Yet, As He
    Forever alone in a crowd, Arthur Fleck seeks connection. Yet, as he trods the sooted Gotham City streets and rides the graffitied mass transit rails of a hostile town teeming with division and dissatisfaction, Arthur wears two masks. One, he paints on for his day job as a clown. The other he can never remove; it’s the guise he projects in a futile attempt to feel he’s a part of the world around him, and not the misunderstood man whom life is repeatedly beating down. Fatherless, Arthur has a fragile mother, arguably his best friend, who nicknamed him Happy, a moniker that’s fostered in Arthur a smile that hides the heartache beneath. But, when bullied by teens on the streets, taunted by suits on the subway, or simply teased by his fellow clowns at work, this social outlier only becomes even more out of sync with everyone around him. Directed, co-written and produced by Todd Phillips, “Joker” is the filmmaker’s original vision of the infamous DC villain, an origin story infused with, but distinctly outside, the character’s more traditional mythologies. Phillips’ exploration of Arthur Fleck, who is indelibly portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix, is of a man struggling to find his way in Gotham’s fractured society. Longing for any light to shine on him, he tries his hand as a stand-up comic, but finds the joke always seems to be on him. Caught in a cyclical existence between apathy and cruelty and, ultimately, betrayal, Arthur makes one bad decision after another that brings about a chain reaction of escalating events in this gritty, allegorical character study.

Columbia leaders cheered the effort as a keynote sign of progress for the downtown district. “Columbia is ready for its Main Street to get in to full swing,” said John Cooper, president of the Mast Store. He addressed a crowd that stretched from the Main Street corner, across the road and to the opposite sidewalk. According to John Cooper, the crowd was two to three times larger than any previous opening. Once inside, many of the attendees made their way to the back corner of the store, which held more than 500 varieties of novelty candies to be purchased by the pound.

    June 14, 2018 The Honorable Bob Goodlatte, Chairman The Honorable Jerry Nadler, Ranking Member House Committee on the Judiciary 2138 Rayburn House Office Building Washington, D.C. 20515 The Honorable Greg Walden, Chairman The Honorable Joe Barton, Vice Chairman The Honorable Frank Pallone, Ranking Member House Energy and Commerce Committee 2125 Rayburn House Office Building Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Chairmen, Vice Chairman, and Ranking Members: We, the undersigned, are creatives who make our living in the entertainment industries. Whether we work in film, television, publishing, music, or photography, we and our colleagues have all been affected by the rampant, illicit activity that occurs on the major internet platforms, including Google and Facebook. There has been growing concern in Washington, in the press, and among Americans about the lack of responsibility exercised by the major internet platforms toward harmful and illegal activity taking place on their services. For decades, online gatekeepers like Facebook and Google have turned a blind eye to the proliferation of widespread societal harms on their platforms. From sex trafficking to foreign influence over our elections, from privacy to piracy, it has become increasingly clear that more needs to be done to ensure platform responsibility. In recent hearings in both the House and the Senate, Facebook’s CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, characterized Silicon Valley’s failure to take an appropriately broad view of its responsibility as a “big mistake.” But whether the lack of responsibility was a “mistake” or something else, the failure of Facebook, Google, and others to take responsibility is rooted in decades-old government policies, including legal immunities and safe harbors, that treat these companies differently than other industries and actually absolve internet platforms of responsibility.

  • Actor of the Month: Bradley Cooper by ANNA MATLIN Opinions Editor
    Actor of the Month: Bradley Cooper BY ANNA MATLIN Opinions Editor Bradley Charles Cooper was born on January 5th, 1975 to Italian-American mother Gloria and Irish-American father Charles. Raised in Jenkintown, Pennsylvania with his older sister, Holly, Cooper was originally interested in cooking before he decided to attend Georgetown University. Fortunately for moviegoers, however, Cooper changed his mind after seeing David Lynch’s production of The Elephant Man. After obtaining a degree in English, Cooper turned his attention to acting by enrolling in a master’s degree program at Actors Studio Drama School in New York City, where he played The Elephant Man’s title character of John Merrick on stage for his graduate thesis. Cooper began his career while in New York City, landing a television commercial for a fast-food chain and receiving a guest spot on the popular HBO show Sex and the City in 1999. His first film was the satirical comedy Wet Hot American Summer in 2001, in which he played camp counselor Ben Cooper. Although the film was a commercial flop, it has since acquired a cult following. He became known as a comedy actor with major roles in popular films such as Wedding Crashers (2005), where he played the villainous character Sack Lodge, and the comedy Yes Man (2008), which starred Jim Carrey. But Cooper is best known for his role as Phil Wenneck in The Hangover (2009) alongside Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis, and Justin Bartha. The Hangover was so successful that it won nine critical awards and merited a sequel entitled The Hangover Part II (2011).
