The Beautiful Cara Delevingne Attended A Star-Studded Halloween Party This Weekend, And She Seemed To Be In A Good Mood

-
Cara Delevingne was seen attending a Halloween bash attended by several famous people early on Sunday morning, despite worries being raised about her health. According to a source, the model is said to have arrived at the Boom Boom Room's spooky party at the Top of The Standard at The Standard, High Line in New York City at approximately two in the morning dressed as a clown who spoke with Page Six on Monday. According to the insider, Cara arrived with a bunch of her companions while wearing a clown mask and was in a fantastic mood. The insider also stated that Cara spent some time with the presenter, Jeffrey O. Harris and that she was very low-key. We were told that she wasn't drinking cocktails but was on the dance floor, moving to music by Sudan Archives. So, although she wasn't drinking any cocktails, she was dancing. Mark Ronson, Grace Gummer, Emily Ratajkowki, Derek Blasberg, Simon Huck, and Prabal Gurung were among the other celebrities that attended the Halloween party. Antoni Porowski was also there. Concerns were initially raised about Delevingne, 30, after she was seen at the Van Nuys Airport in California in September, appearing unkempt and without shoes. The woman, who appeared to be in poor health, was shown on film stumbling around erratically with her dog on the tarmac while smoking cigarettes rapidly and repeatedly dropping her cell phone. She was again observed doing this while her driver was driving off in an SUV, with her feet protruding out the window. After a few days, fans became even more concerned for the actress who had starred in Only Murders in the Building when her close friend Margot Robbie was seen crying just a few hours after she had left Poppy Delevingne's house. She also caused a stir when she skipped the premiere party for her new collaboration with Karl Lagerfeld during Fashion Week. This raised eyebrows.

-
A lot of Bollywood films have re-released off late but when it comes to Hollywood, a handful of classics have had a re-run in cinemas.

‘I lied to get the part’: Melvyn Hayes on his ‘angry young man’ beginnings – and It Ain’t Half Hot Mum

-
He was tipped to be the next Richard Burton – but ended up as crossdressing Gunner Gloria in the now controversial sitcom. As his breakthrough classic returns to the screen, Hayes looks back One day in 1957, Melvyn Hayes was on the set of a film called Woman in a Dressing Gown when a man sat down next to him. “I was getting paid £5 a day and I’d been on location for three days,” the actor recalls. “All I had to do was walk up to a house and put a newspaper through a letterbox. That was my part. Finished. I said to this bloke, ‘I can’t believe the waste of money on this film. Take me. You could have got a newspaper boy on £1 a day to do what I’m doing.’ Then I said, ‘What do you do then, you lazy bugger?’ And he said, ‘I’m the producer.’” Hayes, now 89, giggles at the memory of the cheek of himself at 23. Back then, £5 a day was a decent whack. His first job in showbiz, in the early 1950s, was as assistant to The Great Masoni, a magician who tasked Hayes with “disappearing twice daily...

The Portable Door review – Harry Potter-ish YA fantasy carried by hardworking cast

-
Jeffrey Walker’s adaptation of the young-adult fantasy novel retains its edge thanks to its performances, but gets stuck on the whole door thing Adapted from Tom Holt’s 2003 young-adult fantasy novel, this is a passable attempt at kickstarting a new Harry Potter-style franchise set in a fusty-quirky institution, dosed up with extra Gilliamesque grotesquery. Co-produced by the Jim Henson Company, the production design is poky and intense, and the cast – with Christoph Waltz and Sam Neill larking it up – give it their all. But amid all this clutter, it sometimes has trouble moving its story forward. The Portable Door has a nice conceit: the venerable London corporation of JW Wells & Co is responsible for engineering all the daily incidents of coincidence and serendipity that happen in urban life. Not that wet-behind-the-ears intern Paul Carpenter (Patrick Gibson), desperate for any gig, knows the company’s raison d’etre when he signs up. He appears to have no discernible talents wh...
