Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 05:20:52 GMT

(CNN) — Christopher Nolan was just trying to exercise.The “Oppenheimer” director, who won just won best director from the New York Film Critics Circle on Wednesday, told the crowd a story about an encounter with a critic while on his Peloton.“I was on my Peloton doing a high-interval workout, I’m dying,” he said. “The instructor started talking about one of my films and said, ‘Has anyone else seen this? Because that’s a couple hours of my life I’ll never get back again.’”He continued: “When [film critic] Rex Reed takes a s— on your film, he doesn’t ask you to work out.”“In today’s world, where opinions are everywhere, there is a sort of idea that film criticism is being democratized, but I for one think the critical appreciation of films shouldn’t be an instinct but it should be a profession,” he added.The video was posted to X (formerly Twitter.)

Iowa principal critically injured in school shooting risked himself to protect students, police say

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 05:20:52 GMT

PERRY, Iowa (AP) — An Iowa principal critically injured in a school shooting put himself in harm’s way as he tried to protect students from a teenage shooter armed with a shotgun and a handgun, state authorities said Friday.Perry High School Principal Dan Marburger and six other staffers and students were injured in the Thursday morning shooting that left one sixth-grader dead. The 17-year-old student who opened fire also died of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot.The state Department of Public Safety said Marburger, who is being treated in a Des Moines hospital, “acted selflessly and placed himself in harm’s way in an apparent effort to protect his students.”A day after the shooting, the small community of Perry was somber. Yellow crime tape still lined the campus that Perry High School shares with the town’s middle school, flowers and stuffed toys had cropped up in mini memorials, and classes across the district were canceled Friday in favor of counseling.Perry Superintenden...

Karen Read’s attorneys say murder case should be dismissed, DA sanctioned for ‘egregious misrepresentations’

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 05:20:52 GMT

Attorneys for Karen Read followed up a relatively subdued motions hearing with filings demanding their client’s indictment be dismissed and that the Norfolk District Attorney be disqualified and sanctioned.The motions also indicate, as has been previously reported but not substantiated, that the Norfolk DA’s office was under federal investigation for its handling of the Read case.The first motion filed late Friday afternoon and signed by attorney David Yannetti asks that Judge Beverly Cannone of Norfolk Superior Court in Dedham “sanction the prosecution for constitutional due process violations, and for violations of ethical requirements imposed by the Massachusetts Rules of Professional Conduct, and for egregious misrepresentations to the tribunal and opposing counsel.“Additionally, the defendant moves to disqualify the Norfolk County District Attorney because of his clear interest, other than pursuit of justice, in the outcome of this prosecution,” the motion continues.Read is a M...

Battenfeld: Overrated New Hampshire primary jumps the shark

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 05:20:52 GMT

The New Hampshire primary has officially jumped the shark – struggling to stay relevant in an era when it’s become just a blip on the presidential radar.It’s not even worth making fun of anymore.The media is really going to have to stretch to find a compelling storyline this time.The interest level outside New Hampshire is minimal. And the Supreme Court’s decision on Friday to take up the case of whether former President Trump can be barred from the ballot assures that he will dominate the news for the next several weeks until at least the court’s hearing on Feb. 8.But the sad process of the Granite State primary goes on anyway. Dixville Notch is getting ready for the hordes of media that probably won’t show up to record those dozen votes. They are streaming it because who wants to drive to Dixville Notch in the middle of winter?There is no Democratic race because President Biden pulled out in a hissy fit.A fumbling, stumbling Nikki Haley is desperately trying to make it a race on t...

Hearing date for Trump ballot eligibility challenge to be discussed in ‘near term,’ official says

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 05:20:52 GMT

The head of a commission that could determine former President Donald Trump’s ballot eligibility in Massachusetts largely declined to discuss the matter Friday but said a potential hearing date on a legal challenge filed this week would be discussed in the “near term.”Retired Judge Francis Crimmins Jr., a Republican who leads the State Ballot Law Commission, did not answer a handful of questions about the commission and case that is now before the body, telling the Herald he cannot “comment on a matter that’s pending before the commission.”“That will be, I am sure, discussed in the near term. And as you are aware, we have to publish any hearing date in advance,” Crimmins said over the phone when asked if there is a likely date for when a hearing could be held.Free Speech for People, a liberal advocacy group, and Boston-based Attorney Shannon Liss-Riordan filed a challenge with the State Ballot Law Commission Thursday that argued Trump is not eligible to appear on the Massachusetts p...

Two years after trade, Brad Stevens not surprised by Derrick White’s rise with Celtics

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 05:20:52 GMT

When Brad Stevens traded for Derrick White at the 2022 trade deadline, it was met by some outside skepticism. The Celtics dealt some seemingly significant capital for the guard, including a first-round pick. But Stevens knew long before the trade White was exactly what the Celtics needed.“We’ve thought for years that Derrick was a really good fit with our best players,” Stevens said upon acquiring White in 2022. “He is an excellent defender. He just makes the right play on offense over and over and over. He’s a guy that only cares about winning, that will do all of the little things. …“He doesn’t need to do anything to be on the highlights to really, really impact winning. … We felt really fortunate to get a guy like that on a long contract that we think is a perfect fit for our best players.”Sound familiar?Nearly two years later, White has proven to be exactly the fit Stevens envisioned. He emerged as one of the Celtics’ most dynamic and valuable players last season, and has taken ...

New round of Epstein documents offer another look into his cesspool of sexual abuse

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 05:20:52 GMT

NEW YORK (AP) — Nearly 100 more court files were unsealed Friday in a lawsuit involving Jeffrey Epstein, providing yet more detail about the late millionaire financier’s sexual abuse of underage girls and interactions with celebrities.The latest round of documents included additional excerpts of testimony from people who worked for Epstein, copies of phone messages he received — including one from film producer Harvey Weinstein — and lots of legal memos with lawyers discussing who could potentially have been called as a witness in his case, if it ever went to trial.No new blockbuster revelations were immediately apparent, and lots of the records covered material that has been the subject of many past news stories about Epstein and his victims. But like other documents previously made public in lawsuits related to Epstein, they provide a window into the rarified world he inhabited.The records are all related to a defamation lawsuit that one of Epstein’s victims, Virginia Giuffr...
