Why we still can’t ‘fuhgeddabout’ ‘The Sopranos’ 25 years later

Edie Falco: It’s like you want to be a race car driver and the first thing they hand you is a Lamborghini. That’s what [“The Sopranos”] felt like to me. It remains a very specific chapter in my life with tremendous emotional reverberations, still.My family kept trying to tell me [how good the show was] and I told them, “Stop telling me that stuff because it’s just going to mess with me — I don’t know where to put that information.” I felt maybe I really don’t know what I’m doing or maybe they’re going to find out I don’t know what I’m doing.

Charlotte Church defends use of pro-Palestinian ‘River To The Sea’ chant at show

Charlotte Church has defended her actions after receiving criticism for leading a controversial pro-Palestinian chant at a recent charity live event.On Saturday (February 24), Church played at Bedwas Workmen’s Hall in Caerphilly at a concert to raise money for the Middle East Children’s Alliance, which supports children in Gaza. To end the show, she led a choir of 100 singers in a chant of “from the river to the sea”.That phrase is politically charged, with some, including the Campaign Against Antisemitism, believing that it calls for the destruction of the state of Israel.

‘No Other Land’ Review: A Frank, Devastating Protest Against Israel’s West Bank Occupation

Guy Lodge Film Critic It is any parent’s hope that their children won’t inherit their battles, or at the very least, that they can pass the generational baton with some ground gained. For young Palestinian lawyer and activist Basel Adra, a West Bank native who grew up watching his activist parents fight to protect their land from Israeli occupiers, there has been no such progress: Time has stood dispiritingly still as he has aged into his elders’ shoes.

The documentary was made by a Palestinian-Israeli collective of four young activists: Hamdan Ballal, Yuval Abraham, Rachel Szor and Adra.

When British-Palestinian filmmaker Farah Nabulsi was watching the UK media coverage of the Gilad Shalit prisoner exchange in 2011, it had a profound impact on her.
