Dune 2021: A classic gets its due – Kentucky Kernel - Kykernel.com

Image
Despite heavy delays due to the pandemic, the 2021 film adaptation of Frank Herbert's "Dune" has arrived. There's no time to waste, and fear is the mind-killer. Denis Villeneuve's "Dune" is the second film adaptation of Herbert's novels. Unlike David Lynch's 1984 adaptation, this film is split into two parts, so judging it by the story is difficult. It also faces the hurdle of being both an adaptation of a legendary sci-fi series and the remake of Lynch's cult-classic. "Dune" is the story of Paul Atreides, the heir to the dukedom of House Atreides. It follows his journey on the desert planet of Arrakis as Baron Harkonnen, an ancient enemy of House Atreides, attempts to assassinate him.  Arrakis is home to a desert-dwelling people called the Fremen, who worship the psychoactive agent known as Spice. However, Spice is also a vital component for use in interstellar travel. One of the first things you notice in the 2021...

Why Will Smith's Gemini Man Bombed - /Film

Image
Another thing worth taking into account is the nature of Will Smith as a movie star and what that has meant in recent years. It is unquestionable that Smith is still an A-list star with global recognition who has generated nearly $7 billion at the box office during his long career. He's also had gigantic hits in the last handful of years with the likes of "Aladdin" ($1.04 billion), ranking as his biggest movie to date, as well as "Suicide Squad" ($745 million), and "Bad Boys for Life" ($424 million). The big, common thread more recently, though, is that the movies Smith has helped to turn into hits are often attached to pre-existing franchises. Films not attached to franchises such as "Spies in Disguise" ($165 million), "Collateral Beauty" ($85 million), and "Concussion" ($50 million) have had a more difficult time finding an audience. This is less of a Will Smith problem and probably more of an industry-at-large probl...

4 Signs Of Emotional Abuse, According To Experts - Forbes

Image
Experts stress that there is no one way to approach an emotionally abusive situation. Every relationship and individual is different and complex, and some may involve physical or sexual abuse. Assess safety levels. "The person who knows best what the safety aspect is … is the person who's being abused," says Dr. Kar. Ask yourself how safe you feel approaching the abuser. How safe do you feel leaving the relationship? Then, decide the best course of action. Build a support system. If safety is a concern, Harte recommends finding people around you who care about you, whether it's family, friends, coworkers or a therapist, sharing your discomfort and rallying them behind you. They can also help you create a plan of action. "In these circumstances, people might hesitate to ask for help because they don't know what kind of help they need or because they don't know what the result of that asking will be," says Harte. "But just asking is all yo...

There's One Idea Bong Joon-Ho Can't Keep Out Of His Films - /Film

Image
"Parasite" certainly follows this logic to a tee, with many characters acting under false impressions for much of the film. Through a string of personal recommendations and other small schemes, the impoverished Kim family convinces the wealthy Park family that they are a set of unrelated and qualified workers. They soon discover that the previous housekeeper had a huge secret herself — she was hiding her husband, on the run from gambling debt, underneath the house. It all ends in tragedy when (spoiler alert) the old housekeeper is accidentally killed and her husband springs loose from the basement to take his revenge on the Kim family. In this film, the most tragic moment is born from a misconception that the housekeeper's husband has about the Kim family. Bong's sophomore film "Memories of Murder" was extremely different from "Parasite" in subject matter, but its central conflict also rested on three characters being misinformed about one anot...

Demolition Crews Level Historic Hobbs Brockunier House in South Wheeling - Wheeling Intelligencer

Image
Tom Doty, owner of Doty Salvage of Moundsville, looks over the Hobbs house demolition site while taking a break on Friday in South Wheeling. WHEELING – The historic Hobbs Brockunier house in South Wheeling is being razed as promised by its owner who lives in Washington state. Owner Krista Peng was recently given the OK to demolish the house that she purchased at auction last December for $6,900. Peng originally intended to renovate the building, located at 3530 Eoff St. However, after seeing the structure in person she decided the building would be too expensive to repair, that it was too far gone to save. Since the house is located within a historic district, the demolition first had to be approved by the Wheeling Historic Landmarks Commission. The commission posted information in the neighborhood to let residents know of Peng's intentions with the building and that a public hearing would be taking place. Members of the South Wheeling Preservation Alliance and others expres...

Cinematographers behind 15 iconic films in movie history - KAKE

Image
By: Elizabeth Jackson Universum Film (UFA) Cinematographers behind 15 iconic films in movie history A cinematographer is vital to developing the look and feel of a successful film. Responsible for the camera and lighting crew, the choices a cinematographer makes play a critical role in how the picture turns out overall. Their work impacts everything—the look, color, lighting, and frame of every single shot in a movie, of which there can be thousands. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that many of the most iconic films of all time were made possible by the greatest cinematographers. Many of these artists worked closely with directors to create some of the most indelible images and scenes in cinematic history. Giggster dug into film history, chose 15 movies iconic for their cinematography, and researched the director of photography (the cinematographer) behind the project, their work on the movie, how their cinematography stands out in the film listed, and gave an example shot from the ...
