I'm currently living with a sweet relative in the Twin Cities area. I truly, madly, deeply miss New York City. We live in a downtown civic center with tall business business buildings and I'm a short walk away from a deluxe hotel and a gorgeous library. However -- this area has no Chinese restaurant hat delivers, no good Mexican or Italian restaurant, the coffee shops are closed on weekends and there is no nearby movie theater. Again -- I truly, madly, deeply miss New York City.
One thing I loved about going to the movies was seeing the trailers of coming attractions. Here are some I found online.
Woody Allen has received rave reviews for his new film which is subtitled and in French. It's a drama called COUP de CHANCE.
I've been a Randall Park fan ever since 2011 when I lived in San Francisco and noticed him in national TV commercials. He's just got the gift -- acting talent and charisma. I loved him as the dad on the ABC sitcom, FRESH OFF THE BOAT. He's wonderful in the fabulous Netflix romantic comedy, ALWAYS BE MY MAYBE. Randall Park now makes his directorial debut with SHORTCOMINGS, a story set in the Bay Area.
In the 70s and 80s, the newest Woody Allen film was always on the A-list of movies for New Yorkers to see. In the 90s, critics began to tire of the lack of minority representation in his films -- films that we set in the ethnically-diverse city of New York. With that in mind, compare Park's SHORTCOMINGS to Woody Allen's 2013 Oscar winner, BLUE JASMINE. Cate Blanchett won the Best Actress Oscar for her portrayal of the New York socialite who flees to San Francisco when her privileged life starts to fall apart. Many scenes were shot in San Francisco. Some were shot near where I lived. I interacted with and/or was around Asian-American people every single day in San Francisco. BUT -- in Woody Allen's BLUE JASMINE -- not one Asian-American actor is seen in a role that has at least 5 lines or more. Randall Park could've played the role done by Louis C.K. John Cho or Daniel Dae Kim would've been perfect for the role played by Peter Sarsgaard. Ken Jeong could've played Jasmine's San Francisco dentist.
Helen Mirren deservedly won a Best Actress Oscar for her performance as Queen Elizabeth II in THE QUEEN (2006). Mirren plays another strong woman of historical note who had the world's attention. She's Israeli Prime Minister Gold Meir in GOLDA.
It's out now and making a lot of money. In fact, director/writer Greta Gerwig is the first female filmmaker whose film has grossed $1 billion globally. BARBIE, the comedy movie in the pink, has the iconic doll becoming human and experiencing an existential crisis. Margot Robbie is getting Oscar buzz for her performance as Barbie and so is Ryan Gosling as the rather clueless Ken. If I lived near a cineplex, I would've seen it by now. But I don't. For you -- here's a taste of Ken.
STRANGE WAY OF LIFE from that fabulous director, Pedro Almodovar, runs only 30 minutes. His short feature has been called an answer to BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN. Ethan Hawke and Pedro Pascal are the stars. It opens soon.
Have fun at the movies,

DeleteI was diagnosed with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) four years ago. For over two years, I relied on prescription medications and therapies, but unfortunately, the symptoms continued to worsen. My breathing became more laboured, and I experienced increasing fatigue and shortness of breath with even minimal activity.Last year, out of desperation and hope, I decided to try an herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic.Honestly, I was skeptical at first, but within a few months of starting the treatment, I began to notice real changes. My breathing became easier, the tightness in my chest eased, and I felt more energetic and capable in my daily life. Incredibly, I also regained much of my stamina and confidence. It’s been a life-changing experience I feel more like myself again, better than I’ve felt in years.If you or a loved one is struggling with IPF, I truly recommend looking into their natural approach.
