Marion Cotillard shines on trite 'Rust and Bone'new
For most of Rust and Bone, Marion Cotillard plays a legless woman. Though the corporeal deficiency is a hardship for the character, Stéphanie, an orca trainer whose limbs are amputated after she is attacked by a whale, it is a boon to the actor.

Daniel Baldwin’s San Antonio Mission: TV, Film and Sobrietynew
“My sobriety is nobody’s business,” he told the Current during an August 25 meeting at the Bauhaus Media Group studios, where he’s in post-production of the film he’s directing, Wisdom. The movie was shot in San Antonio, except for a scene in Malibu, California (“I’ll sell it as Corpus,” he laughs). He gave me the exact day of his sobriety (which I won’t share) but, after telling me “there’s a lot of lies that were written about me,” insists he won’t talk about it.
Yet, little by little, he opened up and told us about how inspiring the Wisdom journey has been for him and, hopefully, others.

Pussy Riot Won the Warnew
The Sex Pistols have nothing on Pussy Riot. While Johnny Rotten and co. changed the course of music with only one album and two years of live performances, all the Russian feminist art collective/punk band needed to make an impact was 40 seconds (and no album).
