Sophie Holland originally wanted to be an actor, but says it didn’t work out for many reasons. “Not least of all, I was probably terrible,” she says with a laugh. “But I love the industry so much and somebody said to me, ‘If you want money, you should be an agent. And if you want power, you should be a casting director.’”  Though Holland now says she might have been “misled” about the power – she feels like “any other self-employed creator begging for work” – she fell in love with the process of casting. And as someone who understands acting (and is married to an actor), she brings a deep respect for the craft to her job and a special empathy into the process. “As a casting director, I think you need to give safe environments so that people can be their most creative selves,” she notes. “If you put the pressure on or they’ve had a shit time or you’re unkind to them, it’s not going to help anybody. So it’s your job really to create an atmosphere, an environment where they can do their best work.” 

The summer movie season wouldn’t be what it is today without Steven Spielberg‘s “Jaws,” which arguably created the blockbuster in Hollywood. The same can’t be said of the 1975 film’s three sequels, each one worst than the last; and the less said about “Jaws: The Revenge,” the better.

Stephen Rodrick Fran Drescher is on a hero’s journey.  I know because she told me.   We talked on Monday for about an hour as the actors’ strike moved into a second week. So far, it’s been very dramatic. Last Thursday, Drescher gave her version of Shakespeare’s Henry V’s St. Crispins Day speech with “we happy few” replaced by all American workers via “I think that the whole world is looking at us right now, because human beings in all different walks of life are being replaced by robots.” The speech launched a thousand labor-supporting memes and left reporters wondering if “The Nanny” was the new Norma Rae. Drescher carried the mojo into the first day of picketing on Friday when she called Disney CEO Bob Iger a medieval land baron for discourse launched from his Sun Valley Summer Camp. 

Despite a ton of uncertainty regarding the financial risks of big-budget films, we know that studios are still finding a lot of success with children’s fare. So, it’s not a surprise that studios, including streamers like Netflix, are still churning out bright, colorful animated films like “The Monkey King” to attract younger audiences.

They arrived on double-deckers buses from the inner-city. But their new home was a world away from the tightly-packed terraced streets they'd left behind in Hulme, Ardwick, Bradford and Ancoats.
