A teenager bonds awkwardly with her cousin as they take the bus from a rural community to New York so that she can have a termination

The four words in this title are the four possible replies to bureaucratic tick-box questions about the frequency of your various sexual experiences. A young woman here must answer them, before she is allowed to have an abortion. However rigid and blandly routine it seems, the four-part answer grid is cleverly designed to get information about vulnerability: it is so easy instinctively and evasively to deny a difficult question structured as a yes/no, but much harder to check the “never” box, when “rarely”, “sometimes” and “always” are coolly offered as equivalently non-judgmental options.

The lead character in Eliza Hittman’s tough, realist drama is confronted with this central, four-part inquisition about her life in one brilliantly controlled, enigmatic scene. Theoretically, it is just a bit of form-filling that doesn’t appear to promise any real revelation to the audience. Yet it does just that, delivering a penny-drop moment of realisation. Or perhaps it’s more of an ambiguous hint and all the more disquieting for that.

Студия Paramount приобрела права на сценарий антиутопии «2084».

Соавтор нового «Бэтмена» Мэттсон Томлин написал оригинальный сценарий антиутопии «2084», который, как сообщает источник, ближе по духу к «1984» Джорджа Оруэлла.

Студия Paramount заинтересовалась сюжетом и выкупила у Томлина права на экранизацию. Заняться постановкой проекта студия доверила самому автору идеи.

Сюжет пока держится в секрете, но создатели обещают, что картина будет смесью «Матрицы» и «Начала» Нолана, а главными героями выступит молодая пара, которой предстоит стать лидерами восстания в тоталитарном государстве.

Продюсером выступит Лоренцо ди Бонавентура, ранее работавший над «Трансформерами».

We look at an incredible story unfolding in Venezuela of a failed coup attempt. Did a former Green Beret mastermind it? Two Americans have been arrested in Venezuela. President Nicolás Maduro claims the U.S. was behind the plot. "It looks like a bad Rambo movie, or a really bad telenovela," says Miguel Tinker Salas, author of "The Enduring Legacy: Oil, Culture, and Society in Venezuela." He notes that "the U.S. is seeking regime change ... and the consequences for Venezuela could be very dire going forward.”
