We had a chat with Elizabeth Banks about her upcoming movie, titled “Skincare”. In this film, she portrays a determined yet anxiety-ridden beauty salon owner in the glamorous world of Hollywood. The movie provides a chilling exploration of the lengths people might take to achieve success, particularly within the competitive beauty scene of sunny, superficial Los Angeles. Both “Skincare” and Demi Moore’s recently buzzed-about film “The Substance” seem to suggest that our constant pursuit of beauty is a significant theme in Tinseltown at present.

2024 Olympic hopeful Raygun, who faced severe criticism from the internet (including the Paris judging panel) for her performance, admitted on Thursday that the backlash she has received has been “extremely difficult.”

As someone who had their eyes opened to the magic of world cinema through Fernando Meirelles and Kátia Lund’s masterpiece, City of God, I can hardly contain my excitement for the upcoming HBO series, City of God: The Fight Rages On. When I first watched the film in high school, it was like a punch to the gut – raw, gritty, and unapologetically real. It left an indelible mark on me, and I’ve been eagerly awaiting news of a sequel ever since.

As a die-hard fan, I was thrilled to be part of the crowd that gathered at the Academy Museum on Wednesday evening for the premiere of YouTube sensations Rhett & Link’s latest comedy series. What an unforgettable experience it was!
