if any of you are comedy and theater fans in the LA area, might I recommend this show at Hollywood Fringe "Adopted by Appalachians' by Pauline Combow, that includes a nod to Mulder and Scully of the X Files.

From the bio: "this is the true story of how a girl from the Rural South used the investigative techniques she learned on TV to track down her biological father across multiple states over 25 years.

Reveal the secrets of a nice family in a small town in the 1990s. From a young age, Paulina is let in on a little family secret. Her real father wasn’t the man who raised her. This answered a lot of questions, but opened up a lot more.

With a nod to the paranormal investigative prowess of Mulder and Scully, she incorporates their otherworldly flair into a real-world mystery that is as personal as it is perplexing. Paulina compares being adopted by Appalachians to being abducted by aliens, which sometimes seems more appealing, as her case draws on. 

In this enthralling quest, Paulina’s journey is intertwined with unexpected allies. FBI Special Agent Fox Mulder, a beacon of truth-seeking in the supernatural, lends his expertise. The iconic Country Singer Dolly Parton, with her soulful melodies and wisdom, becomes a guiding light in the rural expanse. Paulina seeks answers against the backdrop of the Appalachian mystery, waiting for an answer that would finally be revealed."

why do i always get hyperfixated on D-list celebrities that are barely googleable and you'll have seen everything that you can find on them online in an hour (including their personal facebook which they haven't updated since 2019)

mad props to the team working on HBO's Last Of Us adaptation for everything, but esp for the makeup team doing such a good job with Anna Torv that I actually recognized her by her voice first

“Headless Women” in Film & TV Marketing

“The trope of decapitating women and fragmenting them into sexual parts is systematic. Women's bodies are made equivalent in the consumer's mind to other desired objects: boats, cars, gadgets. This dehumanization of women in our own mainstream culture hides in plain sight. It informs young women about themselves before they have learned to think critically about who they are and what they want.”

The Tumblr project Headless Women of Hollywood purpose is to showcase the way movie posters tend to market films using women’s bodies—minus that crucial bit with the brain and face. This is a strange marketing trend film-goers might not notice until someone points it out. So far it’s more than 100 “headless women” TV and film posters, with more being added daily. Buffy the Vampire Slayer, American Beauty, Crazy, Stupid, Love, and Minions all have used headless women in their ad campaigns. (Full article)

A Los Angeles Theatre Review: 'Handala'

I’m going to cut to the chase but Handala, a 2024 Hollywood Fringe Festival scholarship recipient, may be one of the most important theatre works of our generation. This solo performance show is not only a celebration of Palestine but it does something that is so badly needed right now: to give humanity and soul to the Palestinian people while loudly declaring that there must be freedom and…
