Dolly Parton's 5 Most Memorable Movie Performances
The passing of Dolly Parton has shook, well, everyone. You know you're universally loved when you're mourned equally by drag queens and good 'ol boys. She was a one-of-a-kind country music icon, but that was far from all. She was also a savvy businesswoman, devoted philanthropist, and a pretty damn fine actress, too. In the '80s and early '90s, Dolly carved out a memorable place in the movies.
HBO Max’s 5-Part Crime Docuseries Is Even Wilder Than ‘Tiger King’ Once You Know the Real Story
The COVID-19 pandemic was a weird time. Eric Goode made it weirder. As we all settled into our locked-down lives, making sourdough amid amassed stockpiles of toilet paper, Goode, a night-life impresario turned documentary filmmaker, hit us with Tiger King. Like the caged beasts in the series’ low-rent zoo, audiences were held captive in the bizarre, bleached-mullet, big-cat-mauling world of Joe Exotic.
This 1994 Classic Is a Distinctly American Riff On 'The Odyssey'
As Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey continues its epic run at the summer box office, the impact of Homer’s ancient poem on innumerable tales that have followed is freshly apparent. Turning over the details of Nolan’s movie in the mind, it’s easy to draw connections and parallels to other movies. One movie that might not immediately come to mind introduced America to its own unlikely Odysseus. The movie is Robert Zemeckis’ 1994 Best Picture-winner, Forrest Gump.

What a Cameraman Wishes You Knew
The great fashion photographer Helmut Newton once said that photography is “10% inspiration and 90% moving furniture.” The same can certainly be said of filming movies. Behind every scene, crews are busy moving mountains of equipment—furniture, if you will—to get the perfect take, and no piece of furniture is more important than the camera. It stands to reason, then, that an actor may want to develop a good working relationship with the person moving it.

How to Act Like an Athlete Even If You Can’t Catch a Ball
The Olympics are now in full swing, which means it’s time to dream of being an elite athlete. For actors, it might also mean dreaming of playing an elite athlete. “Actors want to be athletes and athletes want to be actors,” says Aimee McDaniel, a sports coordinator who’s been in the business of setting big scenes in sports movies for 25 years.
How Emotional Intelligence Can Help Your Acting
As you probably know already from your dog-eared copy of “An Actor Prepares,” theater guru Konstantin Stanislavsky believed that “inside each and every word, there is an emotion, a thought, that produced the word and justifies its being there.” Actors are always working on accessing those emotions, whether it’s grief, joy, passion, or anger.

Photo Source: “Wonka” Credit: Jaap Buittendijk You may not be one of the actors in consideration to play the new James Bond (yet), but chances are at some point you’ll be cast in a role that’s already been performed many times over. Like those other actors, you’ll probably be wondering how to contend with previous performances, particularly when those renditions have come to shape the role.

Barry Keoghan’s Role in Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Please Please Please’ Music Video Is Giving Off Some Serious Heat
When it comes to getting cast in a music video, certain things can help—like having an Oscar nomination or dating the singer. Unfortunately, not all of us can be Barry Keoghan.
You’ve Got Gmail: How Today’s Technology Would Ruin These 11 Classic Films
Gmail turns 20 this year, and with an estimated 1.2 billion users, it’s hard to imagine a world without it. But what if email, Facebook, or any of the other modern devices and applications we rely on had existed in classic movies? For starters, a simple text would rule out the “running to the airport/party/chapel to confess that I love you” trope.
How to Work With Stage Lighting
Actors are often told to “find your light.” On a basic level, this means hitting a lighting designer’s cues—but there’s more to it than that. Great stage lighting “goes beyond simple illumination of the actor’s face,” says Tony Award–winning lighting designer Tyler Micoleau.

Designing for Informal Food Systems
Walking throughout New York City — on sidewalks, outside of subway stations, and even down on train platforms— you are likely to find women, mostly from Latin America, standing behind shopping carts or wire laundry baskets, all selling fresh-cut fruit to commuters and hungry city dwellers alike. Their offerings often range from spears of sliced watermelon to perfectly cubed squares of mango with the additional option of condiments like hot sauce or chili flakes.
