Purr-fect casting: is Orangey the most important movie cat ever?

-
A new retrospective celebrates the work of the cat credited with roles in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, The Comedy of Terrors and Rhubarb In the midst of Oscar season, it becomes evident just how much work it takes to win an Academy Award, both in on-screen work and off-screen campaigning. Consider, however, that multiple actors have won more than one Oscar. (Emma Stone, one of this year’s best actress nominees, won twice in the past decade.) Only a single cat, meanwhile, has twice won the Patsy – the Picture Animal Top Star of the Year. (The award, given by the American Humane Association, not to be confused with the Humane Society, was discontinued in 1986.) That cat is Orangey, the subject of a small retrospective at New York City’s Metrograph cinema. Plenty of rep houses will play a movie like Breakfast at Tiffany’s around Valentine’s Day; the Metrograph is going deeper into the Orangey catalogue for a wider variety of titles and genres. Breakfast at Tiffany’s does offer Orangey his mo...

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s wedding was sponsored by Dolce & Gabbana

-
Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker's wedding was sponsored by Dolce & Gabbana. The Kardashian family knows firsthand how you can turn the happiest moments of your life into a profitable business proposition. So, the magnificent and long-awaited wedding of Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker was sponsored by luxury fashion house Dolce & Gabbana in a lucrative and exclusive deal. Members of the clan were repeatedly photographed in outfits from the famous brand ahead of the ceremony, which took place in the Italian seaside village of Portofino. The unexpected transformation of the couple into bold looks against the idyllic backdrop of the Italian Riviera is sure to bring millions to the company, which has been criticized more than once in recent years. Even the natural wood boats that took guests to the picturesque harbor were furnished with accessories from Dolce & Gabbana, such as animal-print pillows and towels. The Italian house was directly involved in organizing all aspects of the magnificent wedding celebration, which has already been dubbed the main event of the year in the world of show business. Moreover, Kourtney and the tattooed drummer from the band Blink-182 stayed on the superyacht Regina d'Italia, owned by Stefano Gabbana himself. Staff carrying black bags and briefcases emblazoned with the Dolce & Gabbana logo entered the medieval castle, which offers breathtaking views of Portofino harbor and the Mediterranean Sea. And three days ago, a Galleria d'Arte boutique opened in the market square near the harbor in Portofino, fueling public interest in the wedding. The store will be open for three months and will feature items from current collections aimed at promoting the brand to wealthy tourists who flock to the idyllic fishing village.

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...
