☆ 20 Years of Impossible Choices in ‘Saw’
  + stars: | 2024-10-29 | by ( Annie Aguiar | Joyce Ho | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +9 min
It can be hard to remember two decades later that the original “Saw” was less interested in gore than morality. In “Saw,” Cary Elwes’s character verbalizes the tension and appeal of the franchise: “He doesn’t want us to cut through our chains. “I’m going to try something else you haven’t seen before.”The classic tropes within “Saw” — serial killers, haunted detectives, creepy puppets — are mashed together and inverted around the undeniable binary of its core choice. In “Cube” (1997), an offbeat Canadian science fiction horror film, prisoners in a mysterious jail travel through rooms rigged with traps. Wan never directed another “Saw” movie, while Whannell contributed to “Saw II” and wrote the screenplay for “Saw III.”In the decades since “Saw” was released, Wan has directed tentpole franchise entries like “Aquaman” (2018) and “Furious 7” (2015).

☆ Audience Report: Gongs and Goodbyes as the Rubin Museum Shuts Its Doors
  + stars: | 2024-10-09 | by ( Annie Aguiar | Sinna Nasseri | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
In a statement, the Rubin said it opposes the trafficking of stolen or looted cultural items, has not knowingly acquired looted objects and remains committed to conducting provenance research of its entire collection, which could result in repatriation. Qiuyuhong Lu, a former intern at the Rubin and part of the Himalayan diaspora, visited the museum with her sketchbook for some last drawings of items on display. “Morally speaking, I would love for them to be returned,” she said. “But at the same time, it also poses a difficult situation for people like me. If I want to go see it, where is it going to be?”

☆ Celebrities Support Plan to Reopen Upper West Side Movie Theater
  + stars: | 2024-07-26 | by ( Annie Aguiar | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
After almost two decades of failed attempts to reopen, a landmark Upper West Side movie theater may be resurrected with a plan from a potential new buyer and celebrity support. They have formed the Upper West Side Cinema Center, a nonprofit corporation, whose website lists Martin Scorsese, Ethan Hawke and John Turturro as advisers, along with Bob Balaban, Griffin Dunne and the “American Psycho” director Mary Harron. (They would call it the Metro Cinema Center.) Representatives for Scorsese and Dunne confirmed their involvement. The proposal includes a five-screen theater dedicated to art house releases, classic film and special events; it would also have an education center and a cafe.

☆ Who’s Smiling Now? Nirvana and Marc Jacobs Settle Logo Lawsuit.
  + stars: | 2024-07-20 | by ( Annie Aguiar | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
Oh, that lawsuit Nirvana filed against the fashion line Marc Jacobs for using its smiley face logo without permission? After more than a half-decade of litigation, the sides have agreed to settle. The corporate entity representing Nirvana sued Marc Jacobs International in 2018 after the fashion line announced it would release a “Bootleg Redux Grunge” collection of clothing that featured a smiley face logo the lawsuit called “virtually identical to Nirvana’s copyrighted image." Nirvana’s smiley face has an uneven head, X’s for eyes and a wavy smile with a tongue sticking out on the right side of its face. Marc Jacobs’s smiley face, which was part of both clothing designs and general marketing promotion for the collection, looks the same but swaps in an “M” and “J” for the X’s.
