☆ My corporate job and big-city life made me feel anxious and drained, so I left it all behind to move to a remote cottage in the woods

Taylor Yates, 27, felt drained and burned out from living in a city and being surrounded by people. In 2021, she and her boyfriend decided to move to live in a rural cottage in the woods. I'm a very sensitive person, and constantly being surrounded by so many people and activities sapped my energy and made me feel exhausted. I was drained living in a city, and I felt like I always had to be doing something or I was missing out. I'd rather have the life I have now, and the ability to visit the city when I want to.

☆ Songwriter Glen Ballard Is Going ‘Back to the Future’
  + stars: | 2023-09-08 | by ( Alan Paul | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
How does a songwriter go about turning an iconic movie into a Broadway musical? “You take the Hippocratic oath: First do no harm,” says Glen Ballard, the co-composer of the new stage version of “Back to the Future,” the beloved 1985 film about a time-traveling teenager. For the show, which opened in New York last month, Ballard says he and his songwriting partner Alan Silvestri aimed to expand the audience’s relationships with the characters they love. In movies, he notes, “we see people doing things, but we’re not exactly sure why. Musical theater can provide that back story and make a great companion, but it is delicate surgery.”

☆ Buckle Your (DeLorean) Seatbelt: ‘Back to the Future’ Lands on Broadway

Gale’s inspiration for “Back to the Future” came in 1980 after seeing a photo of his father as a teenager in an old high-school yearbook, and he has become a passionate custodian of the franchise. That role dates back to at least 1989, the year a notorious “Back to the Future” Nintendo game was released. “One of the worst games ever,” he said. “The creative differences and the chemistry just didn’t work,” Ingram said. (Through a press representative, Lloyd confirmed that his departure was a mutual decision over creative differences but declined to comment further.)

☆ ‘Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie’ Review: Hiding in Plain Sight
  + stars: | 2023-05-11 | by ( Ben Kenigsberg | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
“Still” certainly doesn’t sugarcoat Fox’s life with Parkinson’s. At another point, a makeup artist gives him a touch-up because a fall has broken bones in his face. But such moments are reminders of just how much any movie would necessarily leave unseen. Marty McFly emerges as an almost autobiographical creation, because the making of “Back to the Future” (1985) required Fox to engage in a bit of temporal dislocation himself. To fulfill his obligations to the sitcom “Family Ties” while making the movie, he had to shuttle between sets, with little sleep in between.
