“We demand that our friends in Mother Nature Cambodia, and all political prisoners, be released immediately,” said Fridays for Future, the youth-led global climate strike movement founded by Thunberg, in a statement. “Like what we are seeing with dictators in other countries, Cambodia is becoming more repressed,” said Alejandro Gonzalez-Davidson, a Spaniard who co-founded Mother Nature Cambodia over a decade ago, alongside local Cambodian activists. Environmental activists stage a mock funeral procession in the streets of Phnom Penh. Video footage showed activists Mother Nature Cambodia activists Ly Chandaravuth, Long Kunthea, Thun Ratha, Phuon Keoraksmey and Yim Leanghy surrounded by dozens of armed police officers and dragged away into waiting cars, bound for prisons across the country. “This week, a new generation of Cambodian activists was born – one that did not exist back in 2012,” he said.

Goldman Sachs announced its 2023 class of managing directors Thursday afternoon, giving 608 employees the coveted title. It's a smaller cohort than the bank's 2021 MD class, down 5% amid a dealmaking slowdown. Still, Goldman appears to have taken pains to promote employees in revenue-generating divisions like investment banking and trading. Goldman says the percentage of women it promoted as part of the 2023 MD class sets a record, up 1% from 2021. Two years ago, Goldman promoted the largest managing director class in its history, naming 643 employees to the designation in 2021.

☆ In ‘Invasion,’ Simon Kinberg Adds Touchy-Feely to Creepy-Crawly

He also teased a connection between that mysterious black shard and a certain Jedi weapon. In Season 1, the aliens crawling over Earth were lethal shape-shifting beasties. Yeah, we called them the worker aliens in Season 1. We see a few of them in Season 2, and they are evolved or enhanced into the hunter-killer aliens. They are organic, they are bioengineered — so they’re both organic and inorganic.

☆ How Bryan Lourd became one of the most powerful people in the history of Hollywood
▼ + stars: | 2022-09-25 | by ( Alex Sherman | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +18 min

Lourd, 61, isn't a household name, but he wields a stunning amount of influence in Hollywood. Lourd's Hollywood clients aren't just A-listers, they're A+-listers: Brad Pitt. An old-fashioned talent agent who loves discussing old movies and doesn't mind pointing out the flaws in his own clients' work, Lourd has become arguably the most powerful person in Hollywood. "He's one of the most powerful people in the history of Hollywood," said Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos. But Lourd's clients are such bankable stars that it's equally important for Hollywood executives to be friendly with him as it is beneficial for Lourd and CAA.

“Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths,” which received its world premiere on Thursday at the Venice Film Festival, is a three-hour epic following the memories and fears of a Mexican journalist reflecting on his journey through life. Funny, surreal and visually stunning, it is Iñárritu’s first movie since his 2015 drama “The Revenant,” which won him an Oscar for best director. Netflix said “Bardo” will play in cinemas in Mexico starting from Oct. 27, as well as in select U.S. theaters from Nov. 4, before launching on the streaming site on Dec. 16. “A movie is a movie. Like the protagonist, Iñárritu now lives in the United States, but he said the picture was not autobiographical.

Fiindcă este duminică și afară ninge, este cel mai oportun moment să priviți un film și nu unul oarecare, dar unul bun. Echipa #diez a făcut o selecție a filmelor premiate cu Oscar din anul 2000 încoace. „Gladiatorul” a luat Oscarurile pentru cel mai bun film și actor principal (Russell Crowe), dar „Tigru și dragon” al lui Ang Lee a fost consolat cu premiul pentru cel mai bun film străin. Patru Oscaruri a luat pelicula lui Ron Howard, pentru cel mai bun film, regie, scenariu adaptat și actriță secundară (Jennifer Connelly). Și totuși, Scorsese a pierdut în favoarea lui Eastwood și Oscarul pentru regie, și cel pentru cea mai bună peliculă.
