‘Nobody would forgive me if I told the truth’: new film about pacifist turned Nazi collaborator divides France

-
In Les Rayons et les Ombres, Jean Dujardin plays a real-life press baron partying during the horrors of the second world war. Director Xavier Giannoli discusses bringing this still sensitive topic to light Xavier Giannoli’s new film Les Rayons et les Ombres (Rays and Shadows) is told from the postwar perspective of Corinne Luchaire, a French actor who was once hailed as “the new Garbo” but grew too close to the Nazis during the German occupation years. As Luchaire records her thoughts on a borrowed tape recorder, she struggles to reconcile her unfaltering devotion to her father, the once-powerful press baron Jean, with his 1946 execution for treason. Her wilful blindness collapses as the Jewish director who helped launch her career visits her cramped flat. When Corinne, played by newcomer Nastya Golubeva Carax, enquires after his sister, he reveals that she died in a concentration camp. “I didn’t know,” murmurs Corinne, only to be met with the devastating reply: “Did you even try to ...

Jack Dorsey Praises Elon Musk After He Buys Twitter

-
Jack Dorsey praised Elon Musk after the billionaire managed to buy Twitter. Check out the latest reports below. The idea and service is all that matters to me, and I will do whatever it takes to protect both. Twitter as a company has always been my sole issue and my biggest regret. It has been owned by Wall Street and the ad model. Taking it back from Wall Street is the correct first step. — jack⚡️ (@jack) April 26, 2022 He continued and said this: Elon’s goal of creating a platform that is “maximally trusted and broadly inclusive” is the right one. This is also @paraga’s goal, and why I chose him. Thank you both for getting the company out of an impossible situation. This is the right path...I believe it with all my heart. — jack⚡️ (@jack) April 26, 2022 Not too long ago, we revealed that Musk talked about how much he has committed to financing to buy Twitter . The Shade Room notes that Elon Musk 'is ready-ready! The #Tesla owner told the feds he has $46.5 billion ready to purchase Twitter, @cnn reports.' Someone said: 'I know he keep checking that bank account every second waiting for that bag to drop,' and another follower posted this: 'You chose him because he offered you 44 billion dollars let’s be honest.' Someone else said: 'I don't think this will turn out well. 1 sole owner, he will have the power to regulate that platform unchecked because it is literally his and his alone.' One other follower posted this: 'These white men about to change the whole narrative of this world brace yourself for impact.' A fan said: 'Shidddd I would’ve sold it too tf. 44 billion. That’s wealth on top of what he already made off Twitter. He good,' and one toher follower said: 'Global Consciousness? Sir twitter is not the savior and it damn sure isn’t spiritual. Spiritual twitter is about as close to that as you’re going to get and they don’t need your platform if they don’t want it. But go off.'

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

-
Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...
