  • Two Years Ago, Found Was Steve Mcqueen's Iconic 1968 Ford Mustang GT
    Two years ago, found was Steve McQueen's iconic 1968 Ford Mustang GT. Only traces of its original highland green paint job remained as it had sat unnoticed in a backyard in Mexico for years. Collectors had been searching for it for decades. Of course, this is not just any old '68 Stang. This was one of the original cars used in the classic Steve McQueen film "Bullitt," a film that defined "cool" for a generation of Americans. McQueen was Hollywood's "King of Cool" for a reason. In his role as the detective Frank Bullitt, he literally flies his car through the streets of San Francisco in what is regarded by many as the greatest car chase scene in cinematic history. Steve McQueen was not cool because he drove the Bullitt car. The Bullitt car was cool because Steve McQueen drove it. At the time, Steve McQueen was the number-one movie star in the world, and he is still used as a point of reference for masculinity and "coolness" to this day. He was (and is) the definition of an American icon. Yet, until late in his life he struggled to find meaning in life, and he suffered because of it. It might have been because he was born into a home of an alcoholic mother and a father that left him early in life, but eventually he found himself on the wrong side of the law more than once. He was arrested several times as a teen and sent to truancy homes for rebellious kids. He served in the Marine Corps, where he demonstrated both valor and rebellion.

  • Viola Davis's Call to Adventure
    PROFILES DECEMBER 19 & 26, 2016 ISSUE VIOLA DAVIS’S CALL TO ADVENTURE How the star of “Fences” and “How to Get Away with Murder” got away from her difficult past. By John Lahr “I had a call to adventure, a call to live life bigger than myself,” Davis said. Photograph by Awol Erizku for The New Yorker n January 25, 2009, a jubilant Meryl Streep stood before a gala crowd at the O Screen Actors Guild Awards, in Los Angeles, having just won an award for her role in “Doubt,” the flm adaptation of John Patrick Shanley’s Pulitzer Prize- winning play about sexual abuse, race, and the Catholic Church. Clutching her statuette, Streep gave a shout-out to the rest of the cast. When she got to Viola Davis—who had earned her frst Academy Award nomination for her performance as the mother of an African-American boy a priest is accused of abusing—Streep saluted her colleague as “gigantically gifted,” then threw up her hands. “My God!” she said. “Somebody give her a movie!” The industry seems to have listened. Davis—“a newcomer at forty-fve,” as Streep later joked—has made twenty-one flms since then. Not all her roles have been large or central to the narrative arc, but, as Aibileen Clark, the maid who helps expose the folly of the white Mississippi matrons she serves, in “The Help”(2011), she was a popular success and gained a second Academy Award nomination. “No one had ever akst me what it felt like to be me,” Aibileen says at the end of the flm.

    CICELY TYSON By: MaKayla Chanel Brown "Cicely Tyson was an award-winning film, television and stage actress, notable for her roles in 'The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman,' 'The Help' and Broadway's 'The Trip to Bountiful,' among others." EARLY LIFE Tyson was born in New York City on December 19, 1924, and grew up in Harlem, New York. At the age of 18, she walked away from a typing job and began modeling. Tyson was then drawn to acting, though she had not been permitted to go to plays or movies as a child. When she got her first acting job, her religious mother, feeling that Tyson was choosing a sinful path, kicked her out of their home. "In my early years, there were a number of experiences that made me decide I could not afford the luxury of just being an actress. There were a number of issues I wanted to address. And I wanted to use my career as a platform." ~Cicely Tyson NOTABLE HONORS ❖ In 1977 Tyson was inducted and become a member of the Black Filmmakers Hall of Fame ❖ She was honored by the Congress of Racial Equality and by the National Council of Negro Women. ❖ 2010, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People presented Tyson with its 95th Spingarn Medal — an award given to African Americans who have reached outstanding levels of achievement. ❖ She was a recipient of the Kennedy Center Honor. ❖ The following year, she was honored with the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Barack Obama. "One of the things I have always said about the man-woman relationship is that I don't want anybody to walk ahead of me, and I don't want anybody to walk behind me.
