It’s been years since we’ve been treated to a great performance, and “Where Is Kyra” finally gives her that platform. The tragic, understated character study from “Mother of George” director Andrew Dosunmu constructs a hypnotic portrait of despair out of Pfeiffer’s sullen expression; opposite Kiefer Sutherland as her romantic interest, Pfieffer anchors this shadowy New York mood piece about a despondent middle-aged woman wrestling to find a modicum of stability. Dosunmu’s atmospheric approach, which derives much of its style from long takes and lengthier pauses, provides both actors with the most experimental cinematic challenge of their resumes to date, and they tackle the assignment with palpable depth. “Where Is Kyra” falls short of channeling their performances into a fully satisfying whole, but it nevertheless fuses the talent of an ambitious filmmaker with actors eager to operate on his wavelength. “Mother of George” and “Restless City” proved Dosunmu had a penchant for eloquent stories about marginalized lives, and “Where Is Kyra?” solidifies his calculated approach.

ALGER – Onde de choc en Algérie. Une caméra cachée, qui a piégé l’écrivain Rachid Boudjedra sur la chaîne privée EnnaharTV a provoqué une vague de protestations sur les réseaux sociaux et trois pétitions circulent pour dénoncer cette agression. L’émission, censée tendre des canulars à des personnalités algériennes connues, a « invité » l’écrivain mondialement connu, Rachid Boudjedra. À 75 ans, l’auteur de « La Répudiation » ou de « L’Escargot entêté », poète essayiste et romancier traduit dans plus de trente pays, militant de la guerre d’Indépendance, activiste communiste, condamné à mort par les islamistes du Front islamique du salut au début des années 1990, avait suscité la polémique en déclarant en 2015 sur le plateau de la chaîne de télé algérienne Echorrouk qu’il était athée.

Le principe de cette caméra cachée version algérienne est de faire croire à l’invité qu’il est interviewé. Juste avant, il est pris à partie et filmé à son insu par des animateurs particulièrement agressifs. Les réactions de l’invité étant parfois violentes, les mots vulgaires sont masqués lors de la diffusion par des bips sonores qui rendent l’émission parfois incompréhensible. Une chaîne par ailleurs accusée d’être un porte-voix du système Dans la séquence, l’animateur demande à l’écrivain de dire, puis de crier « Allahou Akbar » et de proclamer sa foi musulmane en prononçant plusieurs fois la chahada (profession de foi), tout en lui criant dessus. Sur ce, un faux policier intervient sur le plateau pour demander les papiers de Boudjedra et lui pose des questions sur une soi-disant accusation d’intelligence avec l’étranger, et à nouveau, sur sa foi. C’est à ce moment que l’écrivain, réputé sanguin, cherche à temporiser avant de s’énerver et d’insulter les faux journalistes et le faux policier. La scène dégénère: il demande à ce qu’on le « laisse tranquille », et cherchant à quitter le studio, se retrouve bloqué par les pectoraux d’un des animateurs de la caméra cachée, qui le repousse violemment. Le chercheur en sciences islamiques Said Djabelkhir s’est demandé si la situation « ne poussait pas les intellectuels à prendre les armes » Dès la diffusion de l’émission, mercredi soir, une vague de désapprobations a submergé les réseaux sociaux, allant jusqu’à demander la fermeture de la chaîne de télé, par ailleurs accusée d’être un porte-voix du système et un canal diffusant des messages socialement rétrogrades. Ennahar est un appareil d'avilissement généralisé de l'Algerie. Instrument d'une prise d'otage, d'un chantage. Boudjedra mais pas seulement — Kamel DAOUD (@daoud_kamel) L’écrivain et ex-éditeur Lazhari Labter a appelé les annonceurs publicitaires à ne plus donner de publicité à EnnaharTV. Le militant associatif Djilali Hadjadj a dénoncé EnnaharTV comme « un des bras armés médiatiques d’une aile fascisante du pouvoir policier, autoritaire et répressif ». Le chercheur en sciences islamiques Said Djabelkhir s’est demandé si la situation « ne poussait pas les intellectuels à prendre les armes ».

Brown/Agence France-Presse — Getty Images Stephen Colbert Sets a Trump-Centric Tone Stephen Colbert has become the late-night ratings king by leaning heavily on Trump jokes, so it was no surprise that he did the same in his first stint as Emmy host. The fizzy, which positioned TV as an escape from the world President Trump has wrought, featured prime-time stars like Anthony Anderson, Allison Janney, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and FX’s animated Archer, a hip-hop interlude by Chance the Rapper and a troupe of tap-dancing female and male “handmaids.” “The world may be the worst we’ve ever seen,” Mr. Colbert sang. “But it’s never been better on your TV screen.”.

Trump’s inauguration. (“That really soothed my fragile ego,” said Stephen Colbert.) It was jarring, on a night wall-to-wall with jokes and earnest speeches about the Trump administration, to see one of its alumni trotted out like a reality-TV breakout character.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus said “Veep” writers had scrapped a story line about impeachment “because we were worried that someone else might get to it first.” Tatiana Maslany, introducing the best actress in a drama category, said the Claire Underwood character from “House of Cards” would be a great president because “she doesn’t tweet.” Photo.

After smashing its Kickstarter goal, Digital Sun Games' action RPG title Moonlighter has been steadily getting closer to release. Until now there had been no inclination of a release on Switch but, thanks to a rather epic reveal trailer, we now know that the game is indeed. Rynoka, a small commercial village, was found near the excavation site – providing brave and reckless adventurers with treasures beyond measure. Moonlighter is an Action RPG with rogue-lite elements that demonstrates two sides of the coin – revealing everyday routines of Will, an adventurous shopkeeper that secretly.

June 22, 2017Written by Chandler Wood Sometimes it’s those indie games that have the most clever of mechanics, taking styles that we’re used to and turning them on their head. Moonlighter looks like a Zelda-inspired dungeon crawler at a glance, and that’s not an incorrect assessment. There is definitely an element of dungeon crawling in the classic Zelda style, that top-down view where you can see the walls of each room of the dungeons you enter. The surprise for Moonlighter comes when you get outside the dungeon. The hero of Moonlighter is only moonlighting as a hero (hence the name). During the day, he’s a merchant, a shopkeeper that owns a store in town. Join us for the s 22nd Annual Strut for Strays: A Festival on the Farm to help Felines!
