LT band news! Guitarist Isaac posted a pic of himself with the other guitarist and bassist, plus LTHQ team member Jessie! Things are happening…idk what things, but THINGS! We know tour shows aren’t for a long while now so what might they be rehearsing or meeting for? Hopes are up that it could be to do promo for a single!! But really whatever it is would be exciting as hell. The shopping list for the recipe Louis will be following for his video is out and it does not look like it’ll be challenging- it’s a fish finger sandwich! I’m a little confused by the addition of waffles (not to mention sugar) in the ingredient list but overall how hard can it be right? I guess we’ll find out. And a fan who met Louis the other day says she had him write HOME for a tattoo and “told him that the song is extremely important for the whole lgbtq+ community” and that he “smiled and said thank you and bless you darling,” and we got more video from yesterday of him out by the studio; he was wearing the skull/ laurel/ rose/ triangle ‘new era’ cap again, nice, and how appropriate for the exciting LT2 era things he is cooking up (not the fish fingers, the other stuff.)

The much hyped Our Song behind the scenes video is finally here! We see the part where Niall pretends to be afraid of the dog that was hired to bark at him, but as we were told, the dog does not bark and was therefore fired; maybe the poor dog was just starstruck, leave her alone! Plus Niall and Anne are cute and look to be having fun, of course. And last night Niall was papped in Hollywood, looking good in all black with gucci loafers, oh lala.

Behind the scenes videos hype continues, with one for Lima’s NFT as well- it opens with a voiceover saying “stop being scared of who you are, you’re not negative you’re vulnerable” and other uplifting soundbites, then shows Liam drawing and walking in a beautiful forested glade, but mostly in his house he recently moved out of- Winston the dog has a sleeping-in-the-background cameo- and he and the other collaborators (musician Zedd and animator Gabe Damast) talk about how they worked out the concepts over zoom and tell us about Liam’s concept for the piece. They also talk about (and show one of) the physical objects and fancy packaging for it that they’ve made to sell along with the NFT, presumably because simply buying bragging rights of ownership of an intangible digital item isn’t actually terribly satisfying, so they need to provide some actual thing. Besides the dinner in Vegas that the buyers will be invited to join them at that is; we also learn more about that and oh my GOD wtf… uh I mean what they said is that it will take place in a literal glass box in the middle of the resort I honestly didn’t know they could make it sound MORE UNPLEASANT to me holy crap, not even to hug Liam would I do that. Liam also did a live where he tells us some stuff we already knew about Louis and Harry; about Louis he said that he’s working on music right now and “god he’s got long hair now doesn’t he”, I KNOW RIGHT, and about Harry that “he looks great in his policeman uniform,” Liam you WOULD like that, and “name a man who can pull off every look.”

Harry followed musician Pauli the PSM on insta. And as he’s often used his follows to tell us about people he is working with/ preparing something with one always wonders… For example as his scheduled shows for this year draw ever nearer with no rescheduling announcement yet, we’re all becoming impatient to know if he’s planning to play any of them this year. And if so, I know I wouldn’t be at all surprised if brand new mom Sarah Jones chose to sit a few out, so today’s follow of a British drummer… well, <eyeballs emoji>, right?! Honestly though it could be for any reason, that’s just wild speculation.

#louis tomlinson #liam payne #niall horan #harry styles #I know we all want the entertainment value of watching louis flail like hell on the cooking segment but the fact is #Louis doesn’t like publicly being bad at things. I’m guessing he wouldn’t do it if he didn’t think he could pull it off so my hopes of that #happening are not high #I feel like Harry has been making a point of using his platform to hype up black performers specifically over the last year #and I for one appreciate that #11 jun 21 #isaac anderson #matt dinnage #michael blackwell #jessie.... have I just forgotten her last name? we must know it right?#jessie martin #GOT IT #pauli lovejoy

I’m glad Charlie and Matt dinnage are with him as well

They both seem to truly care about Louis and it’s absolutely heartwarming to see them hang out with his childhood friends for non-work related reasons

Louis is a welcoming person, so he will embrace good people close to him. I’m really glad there are nice people with him now.

THE GUILTY (2018)

Starring Jakob Cedergren, Morten Thunbo, Maria Gersby Cissé, Anders Brink Madsen, Tommy Bach, Jan Christensen, Christian Lassen and the voices of Jessica Dinnage, Johan Olsen, Omar Shargawi, Katinka Evers-Jahnsen, Jacob Hauberg Lohmann, Jeanette Lindbaek, Simon Bennebjerg, Laura Bro and Matt Fowler.

Screenplay by Gustav Möller and Emil Nygaard Albertsen.

Directed by Gustav Möller.

Distributed by Magnolia Pictures. 85 minutes. Not Rated.

Screened at the 2018 Philadelphia Film Festival.

The Guilty is in a way a gimmick film, but man what a gimmick.

The entire film takes place on one set – an emergency services hotline. There is basically one actor throughout the entire film. He is intruded upon periodically by co-workers, but mostly it is one man sitting at a desk and talking on the phone in real time for the whole run time of the movie.

And yet, it is one of the most suspenseful films I’ve seen in years.

Jakob Cedergren plays Asger, who is working as an operator in Copenhagen’s Emergency Services phone bank (the essential equivalent of American 9-1-1). However, from the beginning something feels a little off about him being there. He is a hair too snarky or dismissive with some of his callers and does not seem to want to be there.

Slowly through calls and discussions with his colleagues, we realize he is a policeman who is currently on paid suspension from the field, working at the call center until facing a hearing the next day about some vague incident he was involved with.

He nearly hangs up on Iben (voiced by Jessica Dinnage), a desperate woman who is giving odd answers to his questions, before realizing that she is apparently being kidnapped and can’t speak out on what is happening to her because the kidnapper is listening to her side of the conversation.

Asger’s inner detective snaps in and he goes to work to do all he can to find the woman and figure out what is happening. He calls the police, calls his partner, and searches the internet for clues, all desperate to save Iben, and as well protect her two children, from the culprit, who he quickly comes to believe is her estranged husband.

However, what is really happening is much more complicated than he ever imagined.

While he is trying to save this woman and her children, we are slowly given more and more information on Asger’s life and on the incident which led to his suspension from the force. And, unknowingly, while trying to redeem himself by saving this family, he just makes matters worse than they already were.

This type of style of filmmaking has been touched upon before – Colin Farrell’s Phone Booth, Tom Hardy’s Locke and Halle Berry’s The Call come to mind – however The Guilty is by far the best of these films. Also, unlike those films, The Guilty never cheats and changes setting or going out into the real world. The smart refusal to leave two rooms gives the film a claustrophobic quality that just fuels the suspense.

The Guilty is a delightful surprise and one of the better thrillers I’ve seen in a long time. Be sure to go and see this Danish original before Hollywood catches on to the story and messes it up with the almost inevitable English-language remake.

Tebas or not Tebas? That is the question for the Premier League

The search for a new Premier League chief executive has reached the point where candidates are invited for a second interview, and La Liga boss Javier Thebes stays in the frame.

ITV & # 39; s strategy chief Tom Betts is also supposed to be shortlisted, despite being overlooked when Susanna Dinnage was initially appointed to succeed Richard Scudamore. League Chief Javier Tebas remains on the Premier League & # 39; s "Premier League" list –

[bewerken] [toevoegen aanbieding] Buy the Boss League Javier Thebe stays in it under the Premier League would certainly be viewed with some suspicion by the big six of the Premier League, not me

Only when a chief executive has been appointed, will the Premier League even begin their search for a new president or determine the precise nature of the role.

Senior club insiders, however, think it will be rewarded on a level with the presidents of FTSE 100 companies, with a salary somewhere in the region of £ 350,000. That would be about 10 times what Greg Clarke is paid as the FA president.

The farewell gift of outgoing FA director Martin Glenn to the organization – a name change that makes it the & # 39; English FA & # 39; would be – is already going against the wind.

Not only the home of English football, but also the home of football. & # 39; Perhaps football was & # 39; coming home & # 39; not so arrogant, after all …

The occasional breakfast show host of TalkSPORT, Alan Brazil, is expected to return on Monday morning after another two weeks & # 39; time off & # 39 ;.

So Brazil's reputation for going AWOL, his reserve replacement Max Rushden felt it was possible to make a comment live in the air.

Rushden revealed that after midnight he blocks calls to his cell phone from anyone except close relatives – and talkSPORT producers.

He added that if the phone rings at 5 o'clock in the morning, he can confidently predict that Brazil has not responded and will play football with talkSPORT studios in London Bridge.

Laura Woods was a breath of fresh air that organized the program for two days last week, even though she burst out laughing after accidentally introducing herself to co-presenter Ally McCoist.

The former English-language opener Graeme Fowler has set up an initiative in the field of mental health to assist current players after the outbreak of the Professional Cricketers Association.

Fowler, who suffers from depression, worked as a mental health ambassador for the PCA but was told in a letter from President David Leatherdale that his position was revised after complaints about some of his Twitter messages.

Fowler, 61, immediately broke ties with the PCA and plans to visit clubs that talk about their experiences in the hope that it will encourage young cricketers to seek help if they are struggling.

Fowler also got a book from the following month, Mind about Batter, which focuses on the mental side of cricket.

BT Sport has to show this Fed Cup promotion against Kazakhstan in the Copper Box in London this month, but the future of their long-term tennis knowledge – a key component of the channel – is unclear.

The three-year contract for regular WTA Tour events expires at the end of this season and Amazon Prime is expected to be interested.

The League Managers Association provides financial support for a scheme aimed at building a retirement home for former sportsmen and women

Senior citizens at the LMA are concerned about the number of older, low-income older managers with diminishing mental capacity and dementia. A former top-flight manager would be & # 39; lost in a retirement home with little company and no one to talk to & # 39 ;.

The LMA have agreed to support the Reposm Sporting House Trust, established by former ECB Deputy Chairman Michael Soper.

The charity wants to raise £ 2 million to buy an apartment building in Dorset and convert it into sheltered accommodation for previously sporting stars who have fallen in difficult times.

'Miseducation of Cameron Post' wins top prize at Sundance 2018

Now that 2018 Sundance Film Festival is officially over, the awards have now all be dlivered with top prizes going to The Miseducation of Cameron Post, Kailash, Of Fathers and Sons, and Butterflies While many thought it was a weak lineup of films in the festival, I enjoyed everything I saw, even those that weren't as strong like Robert Pattinson's latest. But that's what film festivals are all about; see films you probably would have missed otherwise. Many won't go on to greatness, but finding that diamond in the rough is what makes it so exciting to me. So below is the complete list of winners. After 10 days and 123 feature films, the 2018 Sundance Film Festival's Awards Ceremony took place tonight, with host Jason Mantzoukas emceeing and jurors presenting 28 prizes for feature filmmaking in Park City, Utah. Honorees, named in total below, represent new achievements in global independent storytelling. Bold, intimate, and humanizing stories prevailed across categories, with Grand Jury Prizes awarded to The Miseducation of Cameron Post (U.S. Dramatic), Kailash (U.S. Documentary), Of Fathers and Sons (World Cinema Documentary) and Butterflies (World Cinema Dramatic). "From the beginning, the purpose of the Sundance Film Festival has been to support artists and their stories," said Sundance Institute President and Founder Robert Redford, "and this year, our mission seemed especially relevant. Supporting independent voices, and listening to the stories they tell, has never been more necessary." "The scope and scale of this year's Festival -- films, events, conversations -- were invigorating," said Keri Putnam, the Institute's Executive Director. "I can't wait to see how our incredible community will leverage these ten days of connection and inspiration to make art and change in the coming year." "This Festival has been extraordinary," said John Cooper, Sundance Film Festival Director. "It's been a pleasure to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with these artists, and to see their work charm, challenge and galvanize its first audiences." The awards ceremony marked the culmination of the 2018 Festival, where 123 feature-length and 69 short films — selected from 13,468 submissions — were showcased in Park City, Salt Lake City and Sundance, Utah, alongside work in the new Indie Episodic category, panels, music and New Frontier. The ceremony was live-streamed; video is available at youtube.com/sff. This year's jurors, invited in recognition of their accomplishments in the arts, technical craft and visionary storytelling, deliberated extensively before presenting awards from the stage; this year's jurors were Barbara Chai, Simon Chinn, Chaz Ebert, Ezra Edelman, Matt Holzman, Rachel Morrison, Jada Pinkett Smith, Octavia Spencer, Michael Stuhlbarg, Joe Swanberg, Hanaa Issa, Ruben Östlund, Michael J. Werner, Joslyn Barnes, Billy Luther, Paulina Suarez, and Ru Paul Charles. A new award voted on by audiences, Festival Favorite, will be announced in the coming days. Feature film award winners in previous years include: I don't feel at home in this world anymore., Weiner, Whiplash, Fruitvale Station, Beasts of the Southern Wild, Twenty Feet from Stardom, Searching for Sugarman, The Square, Me and Earl and the Dying Girl, Cartel Land, The Wolf Pack, The Diary of a Teenage Girl, Dope, Dear White People, The Cove and Man on Wire. 2018 SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL FEATURE FILM AWARDS The U.S. Grand Jury Prize: Documentary was presented by Simon Chin to: Kailash / U.S.A.
