    Contact: Keisha Raines 323.495.4370 [email protected] Images (L-R): Jennifer Jason Leigh as Daisy Domergue, Kurt Russell as John Ruth, and Samuel L. Jackson as Major Marquis Warren in The Hateful Eight™ (2015) / All images © The Weinstein Company The Autry Announces The Hateful Eight Costume Loan, Adding to Its Gallery of Western Film Artifacts and Memorabilia On View Beginning Tuesday, December 22, 2015 Los Angeles, CA (December 10, 2015)—Beginning the week of The Hateful Eight's release in 70mm, visitors to the Autry Museum of the American West can see a display of costumes worn by three of the film's actors: Samuel L. Jackson, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Kurt Russell. The elaborate costumes and props—including a buffalo coat based on an object in the Autry's collections—will be on view for the first time starting Tuesday, December 22, 2015, in the Autry's Imagination Gallery. “While many of Quentin Tarantino’s films have incorporated Western elements, this film—set in Wyoming a decade or so after the Civil War—stands out for its time, place, and cast of characters. We look forward to presenting these costumes as part of our efforts to continue dialogue about the 'Western genre' in our exhibitions and related programs,” said W. Richard West, Jr., the Autry’s President and CEO. With a plot that follows the journey of a group of bounty hunters, outlaws, and fugitives, The Hateful Eight reinterprets the Western genre for a twenty-first century audience. Designed by Courtney Hoffman and on loan from Cine-Manic Productions, Inc., the display consists of the full costumes worn by Major Marquis "The Bounty Hunter" Warren (Jackson), John "The Hangman" Ruth (Russell), and Daisy "The Prisoner" Doumergue (Leigh), along with prop weapons and accessories.

  • 2020 Buffalo Fanatics Draft Prospectus
    2020 Buffalo Fanatics Draft Prospectus Director of College Scouting Steve Mathes _ @JudgeMathes Positional Outlook Quarterback Buffalo is not going to look to rock the boat by bringing in a legitimate threat to Josh Allen’s job, they believe in him as the franchise QB. Players Met With or “Linked-To” Likewise, they don’t appear to be looking to challenge Matt Barkley as a James Morgan - Florida International back-up either. He has a great relationship with Allen, isn’t threatening his job, and brings traits Allen doesn’t have like anticipatory throwing they hope will rub off on him. That leaves Davis Webb, the practice squad QB, as the only one at real risk of competition. The Bills met with Morgan, but this was before his stock significantly heated up. If the Bills decide to challenge Webb look for a UDFA QB to be the guy to do it. Running Back The Buffalo Bills have only two viable runners on their roster currently in Devin Singletary and TJ Yeldon. They will look to add a third to this tandem to replace Players Met With or “Linked-To” the departed Frank Gore. Cam Akers - Florida St. Gore was known as the “bruiser”. When he was on the field defenses tended to JK Dobbins - Ohio St. know what was coming. It appears from their list of potential targets the Bills Clyde Edwards-Hellaire - LSU are looking to buck that trend. Darrynton Evans - Appalachian St. Zack Moss - Utah On their list are mostly “All-Purpose Backs” and one guy who is all traits (SPEED) D’Andre Swift - Georgia in Darrynton Evans.

ISSUE 04 ISSUE A LETTER FROM President Nader This is our fourth edition of FSCNow. When we first decided to create an annual campus magazine, I had no idea how it would be received. The response has been overwhelmingly positive. FSCNow is a source of pride for our alumni, faculty, and staff. It’s proven an ideal way to celebrate our achievements and outline the College’s road ahead. Last year it served as a vehicle to recognize members of our campus community who did so much to assist local hospitals and community organizations in their efforts to combat COVID in its early days. When I arrived at Farmingdale, I pledged to be the College’s storyteller in chief. This issue includes stories, both serious and amusing, that underscore Farmingdale’s mission and success. There are over a dozen interesting stories that help us appreciate some of the people who help make Farmingdale a special place. Some spotlight our faculty; others feature notable alumni. As you would expect, many articles are focused on our students. Students are at the heart of all we do, and it shows. The College continues to thrive, even in a challenging environment.

  • Texans Machen Tyrod Taylor Zum Starting Quarterback
    LeSean McCoy geht als Philadelphia Eagle in Rente LeSean McCoy beendet seine Karriere dort, wo sie begann. Wie das Team am Donnerstag bekannt gab, unterschreibt der erfahrene Running Back einen Ein-Tages- Vertrag, um seine Karriere bei den Philadelphia Eagles zu beenden. McCoy, der 2009 in der zweiten Runde ausgewählt wurde, verbrachte die ersten sechs Seasons seiner Karriere bei den Eagles und erzielte dabei 9.074 Yards und 54 Touchdowns. McCoy entwickelte sich während seiner Zeit in Philadelphia zu einem der dynamischsten Backs der NFL, nachdem er 2011 die Liga bei den Rushing Touchdowns (17) und 2013 bei den Rushing Yards (1.607) anführte. Die folgenden vier Jahre seiner Karriere verbrachte er bei den Buffalo Bills, nachdem die Eagles ihn getradet hatten. In Buffalo war er ein beständiger Starter, bevor er 2019 bei denKansas City Chiefs und 2020 bei den Tampa Bay Buccaneers spielte. Der 33-Jährige war in Kansas City und Tampa Bay auf eine situative Rolle beschränkt, gewann aber zum Abschluss seiner Karriere mit jedem Team einen Super Bowl. Der sechsfache Pro Bowler führte in den letzten zehn Jahren immer wieder die Rushing-Rangliste an und wurde zweimal in das erste All-Pro-Team gewählt. Laut ESPN steht McCoy mit 10.434 Rushing Yards und 2.755 Touches an erster Stelle aller Spieler der 2010er Jahre.

Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2017 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH THE KENNETH P. DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Gordon Sullivan It was defended on October 20, 2017 and approved by Marcia Landy, Distinguished Professor, Department of English Jennifer Waldron, Associate Professor, Department of English Daniel Morgan, Associate Professor, Department of Cinema and Media Studies, University of Chicago Dissertation Advisor: Adam Lowenstein, Professor, Department of English ii Copyright © by Gordon Sullivan 2017 iii “NO REASON TO BE SEEN”: CINEMA, EXPLOITATION, AND THE POLITICAL Gordon Sullivan, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2017 This dissertation argues that we can best understand exploitation films as a mode of political cinema. Following the work of Peter Brooks on melodrama, the exploitation film is a mode concerned with spectacular violence and its relationship to the political, as defined by French philosopher Jacques Rancière. For Rancière, the political is an “intervention into the visible and sayable,” where members of a community who are otherwise uncounted come to be seen as part of the community through a “redistribution of the sensible.” This aesthetic rupture allows the demands of the formerly-invisible to be seen and considered. We can see this operation at work in the exploitation film, and by investigating a series of exploitation auteurs, we can augment our understanding of what Rancière means by the political.

  • Dear Friends of the JCC's Jewish & Israeli Film Series, Hello! I'm
    Dear Friends of the JCC’s Jewish & Israeli Film Series, Hello! I’m Stephanie Bennett, the new coordinator of the Film Series. I am taking over for Monica Friess who led the series for the past eight years … As we embark on our 24th season, we want to thank you for your support. The festival continues to be a success because of the generosity of its sponsors. We are truly grateful. We hope that we can count on your support again this year. This year we are presenting a diverse array of films, including two children’s programs that are made possible by a grant from Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency funded by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency. It is also important to thank the Lehigh Valley Arts Council for its role as administrators of this grant opportunity. Did you know that Curious George and Paddington Bear have Jewish roots? On February 7 we will present Monkey Business: The Adventures of Curious George’s Creators. Narrated by Sam Waterston, the film tells the story of Hans and Margret Rey, a Jewish couple who fled the Nazis and carried hidden with them the manuscript for what would become one of the best loved children’s books of all time. On March 20 we will show Nicky’s Family, which recounts how philanthropist Sir Nicholas Winton arranged safe passage for 669 Jewish children from Prague to England at the outset of WWII. This kindertransport served as inspiration for author Michael Bond, who based the beloved Paddington Bear character on children arriving in England awaiting placement in new homes.
