Last month she led the excellent cult drama "Faults," and she's on the small screen in the eerie "The Returned." She also gives another solid performance in "Alex Of Venice," and today we have an exclusive clip from the film.

Killings come as police discuss security for world fair next month

In the midst of our excitement for this week’s release of Alex Garland’s “Ex Machina” (which is fantastic and reviewed here), it hit us: 2015 is teeming with artificial intelligence movies. The Singularity is not far off and this swell has practically come out of nowhere, with last year’s awesome Disney hit “Big Hero 6,” the disastrous Johnny Depp vehicle "Transcendence," and 2013’s British indie-sleeper “The Machine” amounting to most of what the subgenre has had to offer in the decade so far (though not all, as we’ll mention).

When Wes Anderson released his 1998 sophomore feature “Rushmore” to almost universal acclaim, it was clear that the seeds of his now-trademark style had not yet fully blossomed. Yet they had certainly been planted: the perfectly symmetrical frames, meticulous color schemes and abundant doses of melancholia and deadpan humor all began to take root in Anderson’s quietly mesmerizing film, a funny and evocative look at young manhood and the perils of idealism. This was a decided point of contrast from... Читать дальше...

We both love to read and love to write, but honestly, for a long time I thought of writing a book as this really cool thing that other people got to do,” Cocks tells Yahoo Style. Yahoo Style: The Royal We is a novel, but did any real-life experiences make their way into the story? Heather Cocks: There are always bits and pieces of us in our novels—never, we hope, in a way that’s distracting—just as fun little Easter eggs for the people who know us best.

Listing plans, blown off course by a pay scandal, could still take place by the end of the year

At the end of season one of "Silicon Valley," I noted in my review that "comedies often need a season to work out their tone and find their groove" and though it's patchy, "the best is yet to come from this show."
