☆ Haley Joel Osment Sees Contentment
  + stars: | 2024-08-13 | by ( Melena Ryzik | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Haley Joel Osment’s childhood memories are not like other people’s. A phalanx of Osment clones, made for that movie, are still floating around — he heard they might have ended up stockpiled in Peter Jackson’s trove of memorabilia in New Zealand. If the apocalypse happens, Osment jokes, that preteen version of him will survive. It is, in any case, the form in which many fans know him best — especially as the notably named Cole Sear, the teary-eyed center of “The Sixth Sense,” M. Night Shyamalan’s blockbuster supernatural thriller from August 1999. It was a phrase so potent that, 25 years after its arrival, it is a Kendrick Lamar lyric — on a Drake diss track, no less.

☆ How Tom Hanks’s Son Spawned a Hateful Meme Online
  + stars: | 2024-07-02 | by ( Steven Lee Myers | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
In the spring of 2021, Chet Hanks, the singer, actor and son of Tom, posted a series of statements and a music video with a refrain that caused confusion, not to mention a fair bit of cringing. Thousands of posts using the slogan “white boy summer” have appeared on the Telegram app this year. It’s been used by far-right groups to recruit new followers, organize protests and encourage violence, especially against immigrants and L.G.B.T.Q. people, the report said. For many of those who use it now, the phrase represents an unapologetic embrace of white heterosexual masculinity, often at the expense of women and people of color.

☆ ‘Tom Lake’ Finds Ann Patchett in a Chekhovian Mood
  + stars: | 2023-07-30 | by ( Alexandra Jacobs | More About Alexandra Jacobs | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Are you in possession of a hammock? A bay window with built-in seating? If not, Ann Patchett’s new novel, “Tom Lake,” will situate you there mentally. I wouldn’t be surprised if it put your fitness tracker on the fritz, even if you amble around listening to Meryl Streep read the audio version. With “Tom Lake,” she treats us — and perhaps herself — to a vision of a family beautifully, bucolically simple: nuclear, in its pre-bomb meaning.

☆ Fact Check-Tom Hanks did not tweet about Epstein Island, QAnon followers
  + stars: | 2023-01-26 | by ( Reuters Fact Check | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
A fabricated screenshot is circulating that appears to show actor Tom Hanks insulting QAnon followers and discussing “Epstein Island” on Twitter. It is a clear fake, created by a satirical Twitter account. The tweets reference Little Saint James, a private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands that belonged to late disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. (here)Reuters has previously debunked false claims that Hanks is recorded in the financier’s flight logs to the island (here). Tom Hanks did not post a tweet insulting QAnon followers and defending himself against accusations that he visited Epstein Island.
☆ ‘A Man Called Otto’ Review: Forrest Grump
  + stars: | 2022-12-30 | by ( Kyle Smith | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +1 min
This was the year Tom Hanks decided to stretch himself: Lately seen portraying Col. Tom Parker as a Mephistophelean con artist in “Elvis,” he’s back as the world’s grumpiest man in “A Man Called Otto,” which attempts to disguise the famously sunny actor as a walking cloud bank. Set in a condominium development in Pennsylvania in the winter, the remake of 2015’s Swedish film “A Man Called Ove” (which was based on a novel of the same name) casts Mr. Hanks as a lonely and humorless widower who isn’t so much fighting depression as surrendering to it. He’s an inveterate rule-enforcer, whistle-blower and manager-caller who snarls and grumbles at everyone who crosses his path. But given Mr. Hanks’s history of role choices, it seems only a matter of time before Otto’s heart of gold starts to shine through his miserable façade. And without even a warning from the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come.
