By Quendrith Johnson, Los Angeles Correspondent When Nikki Finke died on Sunday, Oct. 9, 2022, it was the Hunter’s Moon, a full moon in Hollywood.  That’s all Nikki, who died at 68, was, a hunter of scoops. With that famous TOLDJA word she coined, for the revenge reveal after the fact. Yes, okay, she was a journalist by trade, show biz news analyst, ground-breaking digital media pioneer founder of Deadline, now owned by Jay Penske’s PMC. But that’s not the whole ...

Harry Dean Stanton Was LUCKY & Best Three Obits

by Quendrith Johnson, Los Angeles Correspondent Harry Dean Stanton, who died Friday, Sept. 15 at age 91, was in the first movie I ever covered as a film reviewer. On Monday, Feb. 2, 1985, the New Mexico Daily Lobo in Albuquerque published a halting, lukewarm review of Wim Wenders' PARIS, TEXAS. It was a college try at doing this sort of thing, but years later, what strikes me about Harry Dean Stanton is that a lot of us  lived the quirky way he did on screen....

Yes we Cannes!

As the hype starts to pick up momentum, the Urban Culturalist is primed to find the gems of Festival de Cannes 2012. Finishing off my breakfast of bloody mary's and egg and sausage sandwich, I wonder... Will I meet the great Wes Anderson, or get to shake the hand of the phenomenal Philip Kaufman and silver screen legend Norman Lloyd...? Will my business hero of all time, Sir Richard Branson, invite me to the Virgin Goes to Space Party? Probably not... but you never know. Anyone who has been will...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWh6IUzLVTIBABU KISHAN'S CROSSOVER 35 mm DIGITAL MOVIE "CANADIAN DREAM" TRAILER.based on true story 'Dil Punjabi' of new immigrants in canada."CANADIAN DREAM" A movie by BABU KISHANAn optimistic Indian family arrives in Canada with hopes, and dreams of a new life full of opportunity . They soon discover it is not easy to find work, or adjust to life in Canada. The teenage son is bullied, and disturbed watching his father struggle in a job that is below his level. This is a story of one young mans struggle between working hard, and innocently enough he falls into the wrong company, the world of gangsters and drug dealing. He wants to make fast money, to help his family, and be accepted by a community that has rejected him. This family came with a vision of how life should be in Canada. The Vision of the Canadian dream is now falling apart. The land of opportunity, has turned upside down when they realize their son is involved with a white girl, which is not acceptable in their own community. They start to wonder how he is making fast cash. Feeling isolated and estranged in this new land, they become aware there is a right way to go, there are resources to help them through this transition of realizing their Canadian Dream.http://dilpunjabimovie.comhttp://babukishandas.comcomposer/filmmaker

First of all there is the veteran actor- the magnifique Gena Rowlands featured in Paris, Je T'Aime in Un Certain Regard and gave a Master Class on acting commencing with a standing ovation. Almost everything that comes out of the mouth of this veteran actor is inspirational and provocative: "We actors do not need to die to be r...
