As his debut film Once Were Warriors showed, Lee Tamahori was a director of guts and flair

-
Tamahori was the outstanding director of Along Came a Spider and Die Another Day – but his first film was his greatest work In 1994, the New Zealand film-maker Lee Tamahori made one of the biggest debuts of the decade, firing on all six cylinders with his gut-wrenching social-realist melodrama Once Were Warriors. The Mekes are a working-class Maori family in South Auckland: Temuera Morrison is the boozing, brawling, bragging alpha-male welfare claimant Jake, who comes home from drinking in the pub with his pathetic sycophant mates to terrorise and assault his wife Beth, played by Rena Owen, and their five children. He is entirely indifferent to the fate of his two elder sons who have drifted into gangland culture and crime, as well as his sensitive daughter Grace, who has talent as a writer. One son gets gang tattoos; the other is taken to a juvenile reformatory where he is at least tutored in the ways of Maori culture – the haka and the taiaha warrior spear – and learns dignity and s...

Camila Cabello provoked rumors about an affair with an entrepreneur

-
Camila Cabello, 25, has moved on from her breakup with ex-boyfriend Shawn Mendes. And it seems that the singer is already ready for a new relationship. The other day she was filmed in Los Angeles in the company of 30-year-old CEO of Lox Club dating app Austin Kevitch. The couple walked around the city and casually talked about something. They probably met through Cabello's Cinderella colleague Nicholas Golitsyn. Kevitch seems to be related to the actor. Congratulating him on social media for landing the role in 2018, Austin wrote that the whole family is proud of Nicholas. She had known Mendez Cabello for years until romantic feelings flared between them. The couple dated for two years and, after parting, decided to maintain friendly relations. The singer has not yet spoken about changes in his personal life. The musicians met for about two years, and recently there were rumors about their engagement, although Camila quickly denied them. Now it became known that the stars broke up. The Never Be, The Same performer and her ex-boyfriend simultaneously told about this in stories on their Instagram pages. "We have decided to end our romantic relationship, but our love for each other as human beings is stronger than ever. We started our relationship as best friends and will continue to be. We appreciate your support," wrote Camila and Sean. Most recently, the stars posed together at the premiere of Cinderella. In early November, they celebrated Halloween dressed up in paired costumes, so no one expected that the romance would end so soon. However, fans did not immediately believe what they saw, hoping it was just a joke. Instead, they declared that they no longer believed in love. In a previous post, Miami finally hosted the premiere of Cinderella, which was talked about long before the tape was released all because of the gender-neutral fairy godmother played by Billy Porter.

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...
