Bochumer Theater Premiere „Catarina oder Von der Schönheit, Faschisten zu töten“

Sowas nennt sich wohl Avantgarde! Wer bringt ein Theaterstück mit so einem  schwachsinnigen Titel auf eine öffentliche Bühne!

Gutmenschen greifen Schauspieler auf Bühne des Bochumer Theaters an "Bochum, Schauspielhaus: Bei der Premiere von „Catarina oder Von der Schönheit, Faschisten zu töten“ eskaliert das Publikum. Nach Buhrufen und „Halt die Fresse“-Rufen stürmen zwei Zuschauer auf die Bühne und gehen auf den Darsteller los – weil er den „Faschisten“ spielt."

Betty Boop is now in the public domain after 95 years

Reminder: Western copyrights are excessive! In this case of a cartoon character it was 95 years! Insane!

Possibly, boop (low pitched noise) was not a sexualized word some 100 years ago like e.g. boobs today or was it? Just wondering.

Femme fatale and ballerina Brigitte Bardot passed away

R.I.P. She had pouty lips (Schmollmund) like few other ladies on screen and four husbands. She was a muse.

She embodied cherchez la femme!

Smoking by a young woman in public was never so sexy before!

"... After retiring from acting in 1973, Bardot became an animal rights activist and created the Brigitte Bardot Foundation. She was known for her strong personality, outspokenness, and speeches on animal defense; she was fined twice for public insults. She was also fined six times for inciting racial hatred for her comments on Muslims in France and calling residents of Réunion "savages". ..." (Wikipedia)

Another headline of the day! It must be Christmas season! I loved to watch the Charlie Brown cartoons.

Victoria's Secret next fashion show 2025 appears provocative again

After the long hiatus of the VS fashion show between 2019-2023, they thought they had to come up something new!

Is there anything wrong with models age 50 and older or plus size models?

"... Not only did the revamped show feature models over 50 years old, but it also showcased five plus-size models and two men pretending to be women. ..."

Venice Film Festival: Jude Law plays Vladimir Putin in new movie called the Wizard of the Kremlin. Really!

What the heck!! There is even a movie about the megalomaniac and war criminal Putin the Terrible! The title of the movie is totally ridiculous! There is also a book by the same title.

Is the movie industry really in such a bad shape to make such movies!

Can you imagine there would have been a book and film around 1940 about the Wizard in the Reichskanzlei (Adolf Hitler)!

"Jude Law transforms into Vladimir Putin for Olivier Assayas’ “The Wizard of the Kremlin,” which had its world premiere Sunday at the Venice Film Festival. ...

The film is an adaptation of Giuliano da Empoli’s bestselling book of the same name, an account of the Russian president’s rise to power alongside a fictional adviser called Vadim Baranov, who is played by Paul Dano. It’s partially set in the early 1990s amid post-Soviet chaos and continues through 2014. ..."

Jurassic World Rebirth movie. Really!

For many years Hollywood has been out of good ideas for new movies! US movies have become so boring! Yawn, yawn!

Too many sequels of mediocre movies! How many sequels are there for the e.g. great movie Casablanca (1942, Director: Michael Curtiz, Actors: Humphrey Bogart & Ingrid Bergman)? Basically none! Perhaps, imitations! It was a unique movie with a distinct character!

The globalization of the US movie industry was a bad move! You can not please everyone!

"Jurassic World Rebirth stormed into theaters this Fourth of July weekend with a $147 million domestic debut and $318 million globally, marking a major comeback for the dino franchise. (See Details)"
