Since 1987 the Performing Animal Welfare Society has been providing a safe loving home to wild animals that have been abused in captivity. Star Decker is in Galt, California, exploring PAWS with co-founding director, the late Pat Derby.

The ironic thing about Michelle Borth's role as Jamie, a woman whose fiancé won't commit to monogamy in the new HBO series "Tell Me You Love Me," is that she is the kind of sexy, intoxicating woman that could probably drive the best-intentioned married man to cheat on his wife.

The Amsterdam History Museum houses some of the most famous Dutch Masters' paintings. One of the best ways to see Amsterdam is with a guided canal boat ride on its famous street-lined canals.

In addition to continuing in his role as Dotcom alongside Grizz Chapman as Tracy Jordan's posse on NBC's 30 Rock, comedian Kevin Brown's standup career has truly blossomed and it keeps him out on the road whenever Tina Fey doesn't need him on the award-winning sitcom.

Mr. Media interviews Paige Howard. Yes, yes, Paige Howard is one of those Howards. Sister of Bryce - who played Gwen Stacy in Spider-Man 3, niece of Clint, granddaughter of Rance and, yup, daughter of Ron and Cheryl. That had to be said, I'm told, because Paige hasn't accrued enough screen credits yet where you wlll drop what you're doing when you hear the name "Paige Howard". But if you have time, take a look at her performance in a new film called Cheesecake Casserole.

Let me see. The last time I stopped what I was doing to listen a world class violinist was… Okay, it hasn't happened yet. But after watching Philippe Quint move gracefully between classic violin and pop-jazz in David Grubin's new indie film Downtown Express, it is definitely more likely to happen in the future.

Back in '82, I used to be able to throw a pigskin a quarter mile. What actor doesn't dream of at least one role for which they will forever be remembered? For Jon Gries, no doubt, that character is "Uncle Rico" in the 2004 cult classic high school comedy Napoleon Dynamite. Uncle Rico is a ball of confusion, hard-packed with conflicting characteristics, the classic enigma hiding inside a mystery hiding in plain sight.

Imagine stretching a rubber band between the index finger on one hand and the thumb on the other. Now visualize pulling your fingers as far apart as possible. That's it...keep pulling...and pulling...OUCH! Somebody will always get hurt when you do that. That's what I pictured happening upstairs to Margo Martindale's character, Janice Trimble, in her new movie, Scalene. And that's just in the opening minutes.

Jonathan Katz is neither a doctor nor a cartoon. But he has been known to be one entertaining funnyman. His old show on Comedy Central, Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist, was perhaps best known for two elements during its six-year run: its squiggly animation and the remarkable list of guests who sat on Dr. Katz's couch, including Ray Romano, Conan O'Brien, Jon Stewart and Louis C.K. Now Katz is back with a new animated show, Explosion Bus.

Aneddoti, curiosità, segreti e retroscena di una delle commedie più famose, rappresentative e ironicamente dissacranti del cinema italiano. Con la prefazione di Max Tortora. La voce narrante è quella di Giorgio Gobbi, l'immortale "Ricciotto", l'aiutante del "sor marchese" nell'orchestrare scherzi e tiri mancini nella Roma ottocentesca insidiata dall'avanzare delle truppe napoleoniche. Ed è una voce ironica, a volte velata di malinconia, quella che racconta la genesi, i dietro le quinte, le vicissitudini che caratterizzarono il set de "Il marchese del Grillo".

Piero della Francesca di Bernard Berenson è un'opera irriverente e rivoluzionaria, un testo cardinale della critica d'arte novecentesca. Berenson insegue la bellezza nascosta e silenziosa a partire dall'arte classica, attraverso le luminose prove medievali, fino alle soglie della modernità di Cézanne, Degas e van Gogh. Perché l'arte è senza tempo, come eterno e sempre nuovo è lo stupore che suscita in noi. Introduzione di Vittorio Sgarbi.

Il cinema è da sempre il mezzo di comunicazione più audace e irriverente, sa sfidare la società e misurarne i limiti. Tra gli anni Trenta e il 1968, l'anno in cui tutto cambia, il cinema, sia in Italia che a Hollywood, non esita ad affrontare temi considerati tabù - l'adulterio, il sesso, l'omosessualità - con uno sguardo disincantato e provocatorio. Dalla censura imposta agli Studios al fascino dirompente di Brigitte Bardot e Sophia Loren, dalla retorica di epoca fascista a Tinto Brass e Pasolini, fino alle polemiche dei giorni nostri riguardo al movimento #MeToo.

An essay about getting by when you can't get along, Limbo employs a cast of artists, ghosts and sailors - including the author's older brother who, in 1985, left England for good to sail the world - to reflect on the creative, emotional and political consequences of being stuck. This special audiobook edition was recorded at home under quarantine in New York City, March 2020.  

What was Takako Konishi really doing in North Dakota, and why did she end up dead? Did she get lost and freeze to death, as the police concluded, while searching for the fictional treasure buried in a snowbank at the end of the Coen Brothers’ film Fargo? Or was it something else that brought her there? Unrequited love, ritual suicide, a meteor shower, a far-flung search for purpose? The seed of an obsession took root in struggling film student Jana Larson when she chanced upon a news bulletin about the case.

In our demanding, fast-paced culture, it's increasingly important to find ways to decompress and recuperate from the busyness and stress of life. More and more, mindfulness and creativity are being recognized as antidotes to the speed and overstimulation of modern society. This beautiful book combines the two, offering both creative and meditative practices to provide a guided journey into contemplative art for healing, relaxation, deeper connection, and greater well-being.

Modern Man is a penetrating psychological portrait of a true genius and constant self-inventor, as well as a sweeping tale filled with exotic locales, sex and celebrity (he was a lover of Josephine Baker), and high-stakes projects. In Flint's telling, Corbusier isn't just the grandfather of modern architecture but a man who sought to remake the world according to his vision, dispelling the Victorian style and replacing it with something never seen before.

When Trisha Low moves West, her journey is motivated by the need to arrive “somewhere better” - someplace utopian, like revolution; or safe, like home; or even clarifying, like identity. Instead, she faces the end of her relationships, a family whose values she has difficulty sharing, and America’s casual racism, sexism, and homophobia. In this book-length essay, the problem of how to account for one’s life comes to the fore - sliding unpredictably between memory, speculation, self-criticism, and art criticism, Low seeks answers that she knows she won’t find.

According to Cox, the key to understanding The Prisoner is to view the series in the order in which the episodes were made - and not in the rearranged order of the UK or US television screenings. In this book he provides an innovative and controversial "explanation" for what is perhaps the best, the most original, and certainly the most perplexing TV series of all time. 

Una ladrona de arte construye un museo con una colección de obras creadas por artistas colombianas. Angélica Ávila se aleja de los lugares comunes de los textos sobre arte y explora los límites de la contemplación: observa, describe e interpreta. En el Museo voraz, una obra puede evocar un recuerdo íntimo o un deseo oculto, puede dar ganas de comer una fruta o de escribir un poema.

When Roxana Robinson’s definitive biography of O’Keeffe was first published in 1989, it received rave reviews and was named a New York Times Notable Book of the Year. This new edition features a new foreword by the author, setting O’Keefe in an artistic context over the last thirty years since the book was first published, as well as previously unpublished letters of the young O’Keeffe to her lover, Arthur MacMahon. This book also relates the story of Robinson’s own encounter with the artist.
