Eventually, "Argo" was released and went on to win an Oscar, and McNairy did, of course, work again. "You truly do feel like you're never going to work again because you've seen it happen where people just kind of stop working." Just keep your head down and focus on the work and don't change what you're doing based on other people's opinions.

New York CNN Business —One of Paramount’s biggest blockbusters this year is a surprise hit that hasn’t slowed down at the box office since opening at No. The film, which stars Sosie Bacon as a psychiatrist being tormented by visions of horrifying smirks, opened to $22.6 million at the domestic box office late September. Many horror films this year have done the same, showing that — aside from superhero movies — horror is Hollywood’s most dependable genre at the box office. Audiences have been sporadic and the overall North America box office is down about 34% from the pre-Covid levels of 2019. “The box office results have been scary impressive.”

☆ Cei peste 300 de copii răpiți dintr-o școală din Nigeria au fost eliberați

Într-un mesaj oficial, purtătorul de cuvânt al guvernatorului statului Katsina, Abdul Labaran, a declarat că 344 de copii au fost eliberați și că aceștia sunt în stare bună. El a adăugat că băieţii au fost duşi în în capitala regională Katsina City şi că în curând se vor reuni cu familiile lor. El a susținut că mesajul video prin care Boko Haram revendică atacul de la şcoală este autentic, dar că mesajul transmis de liderul grupului Abubakar Shekau a fost înregistrat de o sosie a acestuia. Oficialii nigerieni au precizat că toți băieţii răpiţi sunt în viață, contrazicând astfel afirmația prin care un copil prezentat în videoclipul Boko Haram spunea că unii au fost ucişi. În 2014, gruparea teroristă Boko Haram a răpit 276 de fete de la internatul din Chibok, în statul Borno, situat în nord-estul Nigeriei.
