The Incredibly Talented Lucy review – a sparkling story, with an enraging twist ending

The makers of Channel 4’s reality/talent show The Piano probably thought they had a hit on their hands when they coined the format, but the moment they knew they had cracked it must have been when they found Lucy, a 13-year-old girl from Halifax, West Yorkshire. Blind, neurodivergent and given to throwing her head from side to side during performances in the manner of Stevie Wonder, Lucy was exactly what The Piano – which invited amateurs from...

Unfrosted review – Jerry Seinfeld delivers a surreal toast to Pop-Tarts

‘I get a little stir-crazy’: Jennifer Connelly on David Bowie, working with family and going back to college

Jennifer Connelly is on a Zoom call from her home in Brooklyn, jetlagged after attending Louis Vuitton’s pre-fall 2024 show in Shanghai, which does not bode well: she is known to have been reticent in past interviews, and sometimes while working. When she made A Beautiful Mind, the 2001 movie for which she won an Oscar for playing the wife of schizophrenic mathematician John Nash, the co-producer Brian Grazer was unnerved by her reserve. “It was...

The Most Successful Animated Failure Ever Made

Download CyberGhost VPN using Nerdstalgic's custom link here! https://www.cyberghostvpn.com/Nerdstalgic The Prince of Egypt was supposed to be a giant leap forward in the medium of animation. Pushing away from Disney's family friendly tone and musical numbers, The Prince of Egypt was made with an older audience in mind while also pushing the boundaries of what we thought an animated feature film could look like. Unfortunately for Dreamworks, the movie did not do well at the box office. But in turn it did push the animation industry, Disney included, in new directions with what the Prince of Egypt was able to achieve on screen. #princeofegypt #dreamworks #disney #nerdstalgic SOURCES https://medium.com/@sydneymcclellon21/the-prince-of-egypt-faith-brotherhood-and-tragedy-2e1314f8f0ec#:~:text=The%20Prince%20of%20Egypt%20is,brother%20he%20had%20ever%20known. https://www.syfy.com/syfy-wire/its-time-we-recognize-the-prince-of-egypt-as-the-greatest-animated-movie-of-all-time https://vfxblog.com/2018/11/14/the-prince-of-egypt-henry-labounta-reflects-on-parting-the-red-sea/ https://www.chicagotribune.com/1998/12/13/redefining-animation/ https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1998-nov-22-ca-46480-story.html https://aframe.oscars.org/news/post/the-prince-of-egypt-25-year-anniversary-interview https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl7439873/ https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl4067132929/

Jimmy Carr, Laugh Funny: an up-yours to civility – delivered with AI joke-bot efficiency

Jimmy Carr certainly does, as his latest tour title reminds us, “laugh funny”.

It’s not t...

Why I created a parody of Woman’s Hour

It was when an episode of Woman’s Hour went from a segment about orphans into one about sparkly socks, and then Nigel Slater started talking about cake, that I knew: women’s talk shows are ripe for comedy.
