I agree Rosa, our preoccupation with celebrity and wealth is unhealthy. Not everyone who loves to sing can or will become a rock star. and many who do aren't happy, if they were truly happy they wouldn't be consuming harmful chemicals to ease their emotional fear and pain.

Celebrity is a stressful, rocky world in any case. Cher put it aptly, You're only as good as your last performance... maybe oversimplified, given how often movie actors manage to work through less than stellar products
тАЬIf youтАЩre black in this country, if youтАЩre a woman in this country, if you are any minority in this country at all, what could possibly possess you to vote Republican?тАЭ
I have wondered the same тАФ why Hispanics in particular would vote for someone who is so anti- immigrant. I have decided it must be because they are evangelical, and/or they are against new Hispanics or other immigrants coming in illegally.
Frank, there are at least 2 "stellar projects" completed & receiving pre-release screenings for Oscar consideration.
I don't have the U.S. release date but Kate Winslet's "LEE" is already getting raves. It's a bio about a famous female WWII photo journalist directed by a woman, ELLEN KURAS.
Update: The film was released in the U.K. & Island on 9/13/24. Apparently, streaming now on Apple TV. Well received at the Toronto Film Festival in Canada.
My sister tells me the people in her office sign up for Netflix, Max, Apple, Paramount+, Disney, etc. when they are ready to stream several shows. And then they cancel after a month or two and go on to the next service.
I'm too lazy to do that, but hey, it's not illegal.

Now Trump says he wants to deport legal immigrants.
I have my hand raised and waving violently. Deport Rupert Murdoch and his serial immigrant family and Elon Musk and his progeny as well. /S
Actually, which country would actually accept any of our deportees legal or illegal unless they were like Einstein (Melanie's Einstein visa excepted)?
If they don't have permission to land or for people to come ashore, what is the point.
Trump is in fantasyland if he thinks any country will take his castoffs even though most of them are excellent workers and generally good people.
best to remember 45s bedside reading of Mein Kampf..."the final solution."

Counsellor, thanks for this. It just might be the ticket to getting my wife to finally let me get Apple TV.

I heard a podcast on Lee and it was fascinating! I intend to read the book and see the movie.
Apparently, the movie script put Lee's entire life in context: wild, better ... then world class realism. Made for Kate Winslet.
