The 2024 Global Citizen Festival campaign has resulted in $1 billion in commitments to defeat poverty, defend the planet and demand equity for the world’s most marginalized communities.

Central Park played host to a monumental day of advocacy and action, where 60,000 global citizens gathered to hear world leaders, philanthropists, and the private sector make historic commitments in response to their advocacy, having taken a record-breaking 3.4 million actions on Global Citizen’s platforms.

Underscored by electrifying performances and appearances from the biggest names in music and entertainment, the twelfth festival advanced Global Citizen's mission and saw historic announcements, including that FIFA and Global Citizen are set to work together to help end extreme poverty and to improve access to sport and quality education for children worldwide. The announcement was made on stage by FIFA President Gianni Infantino, Global Citizen CEO Hugh Evans and Hugh Jackman, with DJ Khaled and Gayle King also in attendance at the event.

“I have one question… who is wearing sequins?”

It’s a fair query for Cameron Bailey, Toronto International Film Festival’s CEO, to ask at Friday night’s world premiere of “Elton John: Never Too Late,” a revealing look at the generation-spanning musical (and fashion) icon.

Although he’s one of the best-selling artists of all time, a tearful John told the crowd at Roy Thomson Hall that family is more important to him than fame. “On my tombstone, I don’t want it to say he sold a million records. I want it to say he was a great dad and great husband.”

“Never Too Late” captures John’s journey to becoming one of the world’s biggest rock stars, bookended by his landmark performances at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles in 1975 to more than 100,000 fans and again in 2022 as the final North American stop on his “Farewell Yellow Brick Road” tour.

Gena Rowlands, whose seminal and fearless performance in “A Woman Under the Influence” inspired a generation and who starred in many other John Cassavetes features as well as the romance “The Notebook,” died Wednesday at her home in Indian Wells, Calif. She was 94.

Her death was confirmed by the office of her son’s agent. In June, Nick Cassavetes, who directed his mother in “The Notebook,” shared that the three-time Emmy winner and two-time Oscar nominee had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.

Rowlands’ role as Mabel Longhetti in the 1974 drama “A Woman Under the Influence,” written for her and directed by husband John Cassavetes, landed the actor the first of two Academy Award nominations. The other nom was for “Gloria” (1980), also directed by her husband. In November 2015, she was awarded an honorary Academy Award at the annual Governors Awards in recognition of her storied career.

“Working this long? I didn...

A song from The Beatles‘ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band is so old-fashioned it could have come out during the Victorian era. One of The Beatles’ rock ‘n’ roll peers said that he couldn’t have written the song because he had no sense of time. Regardless, that singer’s tunes have lasted over the course of generations.

Donovan on why Paul McCartney wrote a song from The Beatles’ ‘Sgt. Pepper’

One of The Beatles’ fellow British Invasion stars was Donovan. He contributed to psychedelia as much as they did with hits such as “Sunshine Superman,” “Atlantis, and “Hurdy Gurdy Man.” Donovan also accompanied the Fab Four on their fateful trip to India to meet the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and learn about Transcendental Meditation.

During a 2013 interview with BusinessLive, Donovan discussed his own sense of time. “One couldn’t remember last Tuesday or think about next Tuesday,” he said,...

Steffi Niederzoll’s Berlin, Cph: Dox and El Gouna-winning documentary “Seven Winters in Tehran” added another award to its collection with the best international film honor at India’s inaugural Cinevesture International Festival (Ciff).

Anmol Sidhu’s Asia Pacific Screen Awards nominee “Jaggi” won best Indian film and Elham Ehsas’ BAFTA and Clermont-Ferrand nominee “Yellow” was named as best short.

The festival took place March 27-31 in Chandigarh, northern India. A three-day phone filmmaking workshop hosted by Chitkara International School and produced by Cinevesture saw students from five schools participating with Ritisha Sinha’s film “Unveiled” from Mount Carmel School winning an award.

Former Cannes film market director Jerome Paillard, Indian actor and producer Rana Daggubati (“Baahubali”) and Nicole Guillemet, who was co-director of the Sundance Film Festival, and Indian filmmaker Ajitpal Singh (Sundance title “Fire in the Mountains”) are on the festival advisory board.

The festival had an accompanying...

The Beatles were the most popular and important act of the British Invasion, but no classic rock fan should ignore the achievements of Donovan. Notably, John Lennon was a big fan of one of Donovan’s songs, and he played it over and over. The “Hurdy Gurdy Man” singer revealed what he thought of John as a person. John felt that he and Donovan were on a similar wavelength.

John Lennon loved 1 of Donovan’s folk songs

Donovan is known for two types of songs: psychedelic ditties like “Mellow Yellow,” “Atlantis,” and “Sunshine Superman,” and folk tunes such as “Colours,” “Catch the Wind,” and “Universal Soldier.” A 2018 article from Goldmine says John was taken with Donovan’s folk song “Turquoise.” He had a vinyl copy of the song and played it repeatedly on a personal jukebox he brought with him on tour.

The “Season of the Witch” singer revealed what...

In 2021 the Taliban government took control of Afghanistan which brought in a desperate erosion of women’s rights in the country. This became the driving force behind the writing and direction of Elham Ehsas’ short film Yellow. Rather than focusing on the macro picture of injustice that women in Taliban controlled Afghanistan are living through, Ehsas instead dials into the specifics of a seemingly innocuous encounter between two people as they interact in a Kabul Chadari store where a young woman goes to buy her first full body veil, and through this humble human interaction, spotlights the limitations and oppression endured by women in the country. Following the film’s BAFTA nomination last week, we were able to sit down with Ehsas and speak to him about telling his female centric story from a man’s point of view, using close ups to place the audience into his protagonist’s...

In the vibrant days of youth, the Academy Award-winning filmmaker, Bong Joon-Ho, came across a group of extraordinary souls, brought together by a sole connection- the love for cinema. Before achieving global acclaim, Bong Joon-Ho was an ordinary college student with dreams of making films. With a group of graduate students and other movie buffs, Bong created a cinephile club, naming it ‘Yellow Door.’ Lee Hyuk-Rae, who was also an alum of the club, brought forth a heart-melting and inspiring documentary Yellow Door: 90s Lo-fi Film Club on Netflix. Reuniting with the former members of the club, Lee and Bong reminisced about those good old days of the 90s, when college life was as pleasing as the color palette of a Wes Anderson film.

In the year of 1992, the cinephile club ‘Yellow Door’ was founded on the second floor of a building in Seogyo-dong. During this time, Bong Joon-Ho was a graduate student of sociology,...

Prince William might be first in line to the throne, but, like many parents, he knows how challenging it can be to get a baby to sleep. Enter his and Kate Middleton’s oldest child, Prince George. When the now-10-year-old was an infant, the Prince of Wales had a “bizarre tactic” for getting baby George to bed. Hint: It involved “belting” songs.

William and Kate Middleton initially cared for baby Prince George without help from a nanny

After becoming parents on July 22, 2013, with George’s arrival, the Prince and Princess of Wales, then the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, headed to the Middleton family home.

There, they weren’t surrounded by a team of professionals, instead opting to enter parenthood sans a traditional royal nanny. Their decision to be “hands-on parents” supposedly left the late Queen Elizabeth II scratching her head at the “generational” difference.

William and Kate eventually...

Last February, after Coldplay performed an emotional, choir-backed “Fix You” on SNL, Chris Martin ran into his biggest fan. “I kind of forced him to meet me,” Jilian Medford recalls with a laugh. “He had just come off the stage and I was like, ‘Hi! I love you so much. I’m so sorry, can we take a photo?’ And he was like, ‘I have to go pray.’ But I was just begging him.”

Martin, who did reluctantly take a photo, had no idea he was talking to Ian Sweet,...

Exclusive: Sony Pictures Classics is in exclusive negotiations to acquire Daddio, the Christy Hall-directed two-hander starring Sean Penn and Dakota Johnson. The film established itself as a bright spot in its premiere at Telluride and then at Toronto. SPC will get North America, Latin America and territories throughout Europe and Asia.

Hall, who co-created the series I Am Not Okay With This, makes her feature directorial debut armed with a taxi cab, two terrific actors and a razor-sharp script in which a driver and his fare get to know each other and intimate aspects of their lives during the course of a traffic-snarled road trip from JFK to midtown Manhattan.

Penn plays the cab driver, who engages his passenger in small talk that becomes gradually more revealing. Johnson plays the young woman who is navigating an affair with a married father and who clearly has misgivings about it. Penn,...

Fremantle has released the first teaser, a clip from part of a key scene, for Sofía Auza’s “Adolfo,” produced by The Immigrant. Recently presented at MipCancun, the U.S.-Mexican feature will soon celebrate its world premiere at the Generation 14plus section of February’s Berlin Film Festival.

“My dream has always been to make movies, but it was also something I thought might never actually happen. The fact that ‘Adolfo’ got produced was already amazing, and finding out that we will premiere at Berlin feels like an absolute dream come true,” said the director.

“Berlin was always our main target. We think the film will play beautifully there,” added Camila Jiménez-Villa, The Immigrant’s co-founder and CEO, and company co-founder Silvana Aguirre,.

“Sofia paints a world where pain very much exists but is mitigated by the warmth of human connection. It’s a hopeful and universal message, and...

David Tennant, French comedy Call My Agent and Israeli drama Tehran are among those vying for prizes at the International Emmy Awards this year. Nominations for the awards this year saw 44 nominees across 11 categories and a record number of 24 countries.

Tennant is up for Best Performance from an Actor for his starring role in ITV crime series Des while Call My Agent has been nominated in the comedy category and Tehran in the Drama Series category.

Actress Menna Shalaby has earned her first ever Emmy nomination for her performance in the crime mini-series Every Week Has A Friday.

“We’re so proud of our nominees and the record-breaking number of countries,” said International Academy President and CEO Bruce Paisner in a statement. “To those who feared the pandemic would slow down TV production around the world, this is your answer.”

Winners will be announced at an in-person ceremony in New...

The first week of December has already brought in quite the haul for Netflix subscribers. The service has dropped two films in the Jurassic Park series, The Da Vinci Code and its sequel Angels & Demons, and the brand new David Fincher effort Mank, among others, but as we’ve all come to expect, there’s always more on the way to add to our must-watch lists.

Even better, today’s selection of new content encompasses multiple genres and formats, so you shouldn’t find it too difficult to round up something that you’ll want to see. The most notable title in the haul, though, is an often overlooked action thriller that you may want to give a chance.

2016’s Triple 9 tells the story of a group of Atlanta thieves who must come together to pull off one hell of a heist while using an unaware cop as a diversion,...

It’s time to take a look at what Netflix has got coming to its library this week. Beginning on Monday, December 7th, the streaming giant is adding a haul of 19 titles, which includes a bunch of original content and a few great new licensed projects. And as you’d expect, a fair amount of it’s holiday-related.

You and your whole family can enjoy a number of festive TV specials this coming week, for instance, including Super Monsters: Santa’s Super Monster Helpers on Tuesday and Christmas editions of both Ashley Garcia: Genius in Love and The Big Show Show on Wednesday. Not to mention A Trash Truck Christmas on Friday.

For more, take a look at the full list of what’s due on Netflix from Monday to Friday – there are no new additions on the way next weekend – below and then scroll down for further highlights.

December...

The year is almost over. The Hargreeves kids have saved the world and Beth Harmon has checkmated her last opponent. But in its new releases for December 2020, Netflix still has some tricks up its sleeve.

For starters, Netflix is ending this most curious year with some promising original films. David Fincher’s long-awaited Mank arrives on Dec. 4 to fill us in on the story of Citizen Kane‘s screenwriter. Then on Dec. 11, Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman, and James Corden do their best musical impression with The Prom. Chadwick Boseman’s final film Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom debuts on Dec. 18. Then George Clooney rounds out the month with The Midnight Sky on Dec. 23.

But of course, it’s in the original series realm where Netflix does most of its work. The biggest one comes at month’s end this December. The final season of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina premieres on New Year’s Eve.

With just a few days of November left, we’ve now got a look at what’s coming to Netflix across December and the following breakdown gives us a strong idea of what to expect from the streaming giant next month. As you can see down below, it promises that a number of exciting original releases are on their way. Many of these are some of the most-anticipated titles of the year as well, meaning Netflix has truly saved the best for last.

On December 1st, we know to expect animated sequel Angela’s Christmas Wish and The Holiday Movies That Made Us, a documentary which looks at the best Christmas films around, while a ton of licensed titles will be added as well. Adam Sandler’s beloved 50 First Dates will be joining the platform, along with Jon Favreau’s excellent Chef, two Jurassic Park movies and more.

On the 2nd,...

It has begun. The steady trickle of films about Labradors who save Christmas, American girls marrying European princes, and parents learning that their kids are more important than their jobs, is with us. Netflix is responsible for a good proportion of the above, with several new festive titles arriving over the next few weeks.

If that does nothing for you, then you might be more interested in the arrival of three non-tinsel films on the service this month. There’s David Fincher’s Mank streaming from December 4th, followed on the 18th by Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, featuring the much-missed Chadwick Boseman, with George Clooney-starring The Midnight Sky landing a couple of days before Christmas on the 23rd.

TV-wise, there’s a new season of animated comedy Big Mouth on December 4th, the debut of slick-looking Shondaland period drama Bridgerton on the 25th, and right at the end of the month,...

The Latin Grammy Awards took place on Thursday, Nov. 19 awarding the year’s top artists in Latin music. Featuring mostly video acceptances and a limited red carpet, performers did take the stage and wowed. Among the highlights: J Balvin (pictured) performing “Rojo” under a sculpture of two hands coming together (the piece weighed 2.6 tons and required two trucks to transport); Karol G delivering “Tusa” backed by al all-female band; Sebastián Yatra, joined by Guaynaa, performing “Chica Ideal” and Bob Marley’s “Three Little Birds”; Bad Bunny beamed in from San Juan, Puerto Rico to sing “Bichiyal” and “Si Veo A Tu Mamá”; and Anitta putting her spin on Sergio Mendes’ “Mas Que Nada” from her home city of Río de Janeiro, followed by her own “Me Gusta.”

Winners include Spanish singer Rosalía, who took home album of the year last year, and picked up a trio of trophies on Thursday...

“Another Classic Hollywood Problem Film?”

By Raymond Benson

Recently there was hue and cry about the new streaming service HBO Max and their decision to remove the 1939 Oscar-winning classic Gone with the Wind from their lineup because of its no-question-about-it racial stereotypes. While the intention might be admirable, there is also the danger of destroying a part of cultural history that should be studied and learned from, rather than rendering it invisible. Besides, viewers have a choice to watch a movie, unlike, say, gazing at a statue on public display that is there for all to see no matter what.

Another Hollywood classic from the same era that certainly falls into identical “problem” areas is William Wyler’s Jezebel, which earned Bette Davis her second Oscar, awarded supporting actress Fay Bainter a trophy, and was nominated for Best Picture of 1938. It, too, is...

Chicago – The year 2016 was a dangerous one to be a famous person. In the past twelve months, one dozen of my former photo subjects passed away, celebrities who at one time or another famously posed for my lens. However, on a positive note, at least photos are forever. Or to quote the immortal words of Pee Wee Herman – “Why don’t you take a picture, it will last longer!”

The ranking of the portraits are based on a combination of the star power wattage of the subjects, the artistic results and the difficulty of landing the quarry…for those budding smart-phone-celebrity-stalkers who may wish to play along at home. So without further adieu, I present my top 20 celebrity portraits of 2016.

The features that make their premiere at Fantastic Fest tend to get much of the attention, but don’t forget that you’re likely to see some great short films at the event as well. Fantastic Fest is known for their extensive short film selection and this year is no different:

“Fantastic Fest is excited to announce the short film lineup for the ninth edition of Fantastic Fest, happening September 19th- 26th in Austin, Texas at Alamo Drafthouse Lakeline. Short films provide an outlet for filmmakers to showcase their genre talents in a format with fewer restraints, making them a Fantastic Fest favorite. Fantastic Fest is wildly excited that longtime festival comrade Kier-la Janisse is now our lead shorts programmer. Kier-la created the notorious CineMuerte Film Festival in Canada, and was the first full-time film programmer for the Alamo back in the “wild west” days. She has since gone on...

We return with the latest edition of the Indie Spotlight, highlighting recent independent horror news sent our way. Today’s feature includes a trailer for The Banshee Chapter, a new episode of Chronicles of the Dead, details on The Crying Dead, and much more:

Heir First Details: “From Richard Powell and Zach Green’s Fatal Pictures, the company that brought you the critically acclaimed, award winning horror shorts Worm and Familiar, comes their new and final short film “Heir”, a touching tale of father and son. Starring the Emmy award winning Bill Oberst Jr. (Abraham Lincoln Vs. Zombies) and Robert Nolan (Sick, Worm, Familiar).

After connecting with a stranger of similar interests online, family man Gordon and his son Paul, embark on an ill-fated road trip in which Gordon aims to indulge in a secret passion. Before the day ends a horrible truth will be uncovered and a harsh lesson will be learned.

So cute! ‘Jay-Jay I Love you so,’ Beyonce sang in her documentary on Feb. 16. The loving couple serenade each other soon after finding out she’s pregnant.

Beyonce’s documentary Life Is But A Dream aired on HBO on Feb. 16, following a one-hour interview with Oprah Winfrey on Oprah’s Next Chapter. The most touching moment in the film, for us, was when Beyonce and Jay-z sang Coldplay’s “Yellow” to each other, written by their close friend Chris Martin. They were celebrating her pregnancy and it was so adorable.

The documentary offered an inside look at the singer’s life and career — a side of her we’ve never seen before.

The HBO film shows footage of a sonogram, Beyonce’s growing bump and video of the singer posing nude as she neared her due date.

Beyonce, 31, also touches upon the miscarriage she suffered, which Jay-z revealed in his song “Glory,...

Nina Agdal is a big fan of Justin’s new song, ‘Yellow Raincoat.’ In fact, it makes her world ‘brighter,’ and she’s making sure that Justin knows it!

A reunion between Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez is looking less likely as each day passes. Not only did Selena head home to Los Angeles on Feb. 7, before Justin’s scheduled appearance on Saturday Night Live, but the Biebs was caught flirting with a model on Twitter on Feb. 7!

Nina Agdal tweeted, “Whenever I’m in a stressed situation, I put on my yellow raincoat [Justin] and immediately the world looks so much brighter. Thank you biebs.”

Justin quickly replied, “your welcome.”

Justin has been ogling models since his performance at the 2012 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, where he met Barbara Palvin.

Models Love Justin Bieber

Models like Alessandra Ambrosio, Candice Swanepoel, Miranda Kerr also admitted to having “Bieber Fever” at the...

Justin is ‘ridin dirtyyyyyyyyy’ with Lil’ Twist, parading around on a four wheeler and posting sexy pics on Instagram. Is he trying to get Selena’s attention?

Justin Bieber admitted that he’s “not in the happiest place” after his break up from Selena Gomez, so what better way to try and win back his ex than with some sexy pics!

On Jan. 30, Justin shared a number of photos of he and Lil’ Twist riding four wheelers, covered in mud.

“Me and Twizzy gettin a little muddy,” Justin, 18, wrote under the first pic. He added, “Ridin dirtyyyyyyyyy,” on this “fun day.”

While he certainly looked to be having “fun,” Justin’s new Believe Acoustic album proves that he’s experiencing extreme heartache after his split from Selena, 20.

Justin included three new songs on his album, “Nothing Like Us,” “I Would,” and “Yellow Raincoat,” which each provide a look into the...

Fans are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Justin Bieber’s new album ‘Believe Acoustic’ on Jan. 29, but on Jan. 23, a new track about Selena Gomez leaked!

Justin Bieber’s song “Yellow Raincoat” is one of the few new tracks on his upcoming album Believe Acoustic, and it’s reportedly about his ex Selena Gomez! Lyrics such as, “Cause the fame, and the money, and the girl will drive you crazy,” hint at his tumultuous relationship with Selena.

The Lyrics To ‘Yellow Raincoat’:

Guess i’ll put on my raincoat, my yellow raincoat

Baby it’s keeping me fright

I put on my raincoat, my yellow raincoat

You know exactly why

When the wind blows, and the sun goes away

And the sand fall, storming me dead, it’s a destroyer, this is for you

And as it pours down, the water sprinkles off my chest, it’s destroyer, it...

The 2012 action-adventure thriller film Act of Valor is a most unique production in that it stars a group of active-duty U.S. Navy SEALs alongside Hollywood actors Roselyn Sanchez (Yellow), Alex Veadov (TV’s Svetlana), Jason Cottle (Cthulhu) and Nester Serrano (TV’s 90210).

A fictionalized account of real life Navy Seal operation, Act Of Valor revolves around an elite team of highly trained Navy SEALs who are sent on a mission to recover a kidnapped CIA operative, unexpectedly resulting in the discovery of an imminent, terrifying global threat.

Produced and directed by former Baja 1000 champion Mike “Mouse” McCoy and former stuntman Scott Waugh, and written by Kurt Johnstad (300), the movie combines large-scale combat sequences with up-to-the-minute battlefield technology.

Audiences apparently went for the reality-Hollywood mash-up that showcased the skills, training and tenacity of the Navy SEALs in action...

Saturday, Aug.

A lawsuit brought against actress Roselyn Sanchez by her former management team over claims the star cut them out of commission has been thrown out of court.

Bosses at the Collective Management Group sued the Without A Trace actress in May over allegations they were due more than $135,000 (£90,000) for helping Sanchez land her regular role on the hit TV drama.

They also claimed they were owed at least $30,000 (£20,000) for helping Sanchez land a role in a movie called Yellow.

But a judge sided with Sanchez, and dismissed the suit on 1 September.

Sanchez left the company last year.

Actress Roselyn Sanchez is facing a legal battle with her former managers after reportedly cutting them out of commission cash they were owed.

Bosses at the Collective Management Group claim they're due more than $135,000 (£90,000) for helping Sanchez land her regular role on TV drama Without A Trace.

In the papers, filed in Los Angeles on Thursday and obtained by TMZ.com, her former handlers claim the actress "decided to disregard her contractual obligation and thumb her nose at the people who built her career."

They also claim they're owed over $30,000 (£20,000) for helping Sanchez land a role in a movie called Yellow.

Sanchez left the company last year.
