The lush opening shots of “Savanna and the Mountain” introduce us to Covas do Barroso, a remote Portuguese village that time forgot. The townspeople are quite content to live a pastoral life of ranching and subsistence farming that hasn’t changed much over the past century. But Paolo Carneiro’s Cannes documentary quickly reveals that changes are coming to their lives whether they like it or not. The only question is whether they allow their town to be turned into something unrecognizable, or devote their lives to political activism with the hopes of stopping it.
Covas do Barroso sits on top of massive lithium deposits, and a British company called Savannah Resources has begun the legal proceedings to use eminent domain to build Europe’s largest open-cast lithium mine where the town currently stands. It’s a tale as old as time: Businessmen and politicians flood the region with promises...

Today, Jan. 1, isn’t just New Year’s Day — it’s also Public Domain Day, where thousands of cinematic treasures, literary classics, Great American Songbook selections, and works of art see their copyrights expire and enter the public domain.
The headliner this year is the fair use of Mickey Mouse — at least, the Steamboat Willie version of the beloved character — as that copyright expiration has been anticipated for years. However, there’s much more than just Mickey entering the public domain in 2024.

Renowned British actress Haydn Gwynne, who left an indelible mark both on stage and screen, passed away at 66 after a recent diagnosis with cancer. Celebrated for her talent and versatility, she brought life to a vast array of characters, demonstrating her range from television satire to Shakespearean roles.
Born in Sussex in 1957, Gwynne’s journey into the acting realm wasn’t a straight path. Before captivating audiences, she was an English lecturer in Italy and even studied Modern Languages at the University of Warwick. It wasn’t until her mid-twenties that Gwynne ventured into acting, but when she did, her ascent was meteoric.
She shot to fame in the 1990s with “Drop the Dead Donkey,” a sitcom that offered a witty look into the world of journalism. Her portrayal of the sardonic assistant editor Alex Pates garnered her a BAFTA nomination. Gwynne’s magnetism wasn’t confined to TV; she...

It is with great sadness we farewell Ed Asner, who died this week at the age of 91.
Ed was a former Screen Actors Guild President, SAG-AFTRA National Board member and SAG Life Achievement Award recipient. He was also a tireless fundraiser for the Ed Asner Family Center.
“There have been few actors of Ed Asner’s prominence who risked their status to fight for social causes the way Ed did,” said SAG-AFTRA President Gabrielle Carteris. “He fought passionately for his fellow actors, both before, during and after his SAG presidency. But his concern did not stop with performers. He fought for victims of poverty, violence, war, and legal and social injustice, both in the United States and around the globe.”

Film, television, and stage actor Jerry Stiller died of natural causes, as according to his son Ben Stiller. He was 92.
“I’m sad to say that my father, Jerry Stiller, passed away from natural causes,” Ben announced on Twitter. “He was a great dad and grandfather, and the most dedicated husband to Anne for about 62 years. He will be greatly missed. Love you Dad.”
Stiller is known for his TV roles as Frank Costanza on Seinfeld and Arthur Spooner on The King of Queens, and multiple films including, The Taking of Pelham One, Two, Three, John Waters’ Hairspray, his son’s Zoolander, and Richard Lester’s adaptation of Terrence McNally’s play, The Ritz, which Jerry also acted in on Broadway.

When does a silent classic really become a classic? When we can see a reconstituted full original version, which in this case meant decades spent waiting. G.W. Pabst’s celebrated 1927 jeopardy-soap has romance, treachery, murder, a revolutionary war and a score of terrific characters embodied by Brigitte Helm, Sig Arno, Vladimir Sokoloff and the weird Fritz Rasp. But our hearts are stolen by the wistful lady in the title role, Édith Jéhanne, whose natural performance resonates with innocence and devotion. The rambling narrative barely holds together, but this romantic winner is graced with some of the best-directed scenes from silent cinema.

Exclusive: Alan Cumming, the multihyphenate who was nominated for multiple Emmys, SAG Awards and Golden Globes for his turn on The Good Wife and won a Tony for Cabaret, has signed with ICM Partners. The move comes as he is co-starring opposite Daniel Radcliffe in the Old Vic production of Endgame, which wraps its run at month’s end.
The Scotland-born Cumming stars opposite Rosario Dawson in USA Network’s freshman drama series Briarpatch, which airs at 11 p.m. Mondays. He previously starred on the two-season run of CBS’ Instinct, playing a former CIA operative lured back to his old life when the NYPD needs his help to stop a serial killer. It was the first broadcast drama series with an openly gay leading character.
