‘I was born without self-esteem’: Hannah Einbinder on Hacks, her buzzy queer horror – and being Hollywood’s most outspoken star

-
The Hacks lead was cast in meta-slasher sensation Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma for her ‘deranged physicality’ – but it’s a fitting role for an actor who has made a point of confronting shame and speaking her mind ‘God is good all the time,” laughs Hannah Einbinder. She’s fresh off a plane from Los Angeles and curled up barefoot in an armchair. This, she says, is “a crazy time in life. Starring in Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma in the midst of Hacks ending … it’s definitely an embarrassment of riches.” Hacks is the HBO comedy that ended earlier this year; in May, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, Jane Schoenbrun’s queer meta-horror, became the breakout hit of this year’s Cannes film festival.

Since Criticizing Jada Pinkett Smith’s Remarks On The Oscars Slap, Vivica A, Fox Has Not Spoken To Her

-
Will Smith "deserves a second chance," according to Vivica A. Fox, who hasn't spoken to Jada Pinkett Smith since criticizing her comments about his punching Chris Rock at the Oscars. Fox responded to Jada's Red Table Talk comments about moving past the March 27 incident while she was on The Wendy Williams Show in June with a sobbing outburst. Fox, who starred alongside Will in Independence Day in 1996 and alongside Jada in Set It Off in the same year, expressed her feelings at the time, saying in part, "I just hoped we may have a little more responsibility and for it to not really seem self-righteous on Jada's part, and that's my emotions." Fox, 58, admitted to PEOPLE that she hasn't spoken to Jada, 50, since coming out at the Great Wolf Lodge premiere of The Great Wolf Pack: A Call to Adventure on Tuesday in Garden Grove, California. She believes that they are currently through a season of healing. "Hear me out—I adore Will Smith. He is among my favorite individuals on earth. Everyone makes errors. He is the one who most merits a second chance if anyone. I believe he has expressed regret and accepted full responsibility for his actions." Fox continues, "I just hope that we can all learn from the tragedy and realize that it must never occur again, particularly on a platform of that scale." During the Oscars, Will, 53, went on stage and hit Rock, 57, for making a comment about Jada's bald head that night since she has alopecia. Following an apology and resignation from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the Best Actor winner was also barred from the organization's functions for ten years. In a Red Table Speak episode where she addressed the issue, Jada said, "My deepest desire is that these two brilliant, competent men have the chance to heal, talk this out, and reunite.

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...
