<p id="content_head" itemprop="name">The 2021 edition of the Producer's Guild of America (PGA) Awards honoured the late Indian star Irrfan Khan during its "In Memoriam" segment but got his name wrong. The awards, considered as an Oscar bellwether, were held virtually on Wednesday.<br />

Khan, who straddled both Indian and international cinema with equal elan, died in April 2020 at the age of 54 following a two-year-long battle with a rare form of cancer.<br />
<br />
In Hollywood, he featured in blockbusters such as 'Inferno', 'A Mighty Heart', 'Life of Pi', 'Amazing Spider-Man'&nbsp;and 'Jurassic World'.<br />

<p>Singer-songwriter Demi Lovato has revealed that on the night of July 2018, when she had overdosed on drugs, she came very close "to death". In an interview with CBS, the 28-year-old opened up about her near-fatal heroin overdose.<br />
<br />
"The doctors told me that I had five to 10 minutes. Like, if no one had found me, then I wouldn't be here. And I'm grateful that I'm sitting here today," she said in the interview to CBS, as reported by US Weekly.<br />
<br />
"I'm in recovery for a bunch of things and I had been sober for how many years, but I'm still miserable. For the first time in my life, I had to essentially die to wake up," she added.<br />
<br />
Recently, in her documentary, 'Demi Lovato: Dancing with the Devil', Lovato had revealed being <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/demi-lovato-claims-she-was-sexually-assaulted-by-her-drug-dealer-on-the-night-of-her-overdose-episode-371057">sexually assaulted </a>by her drug dealer, on the night she almost died.<br />
<br />
During the interview, she also revealed that her process to stay "sober" might not be suitable to everyone. "I am cautious to say that just like I feel the complete abstinent method isn't a one-size-fits-all solution for everybody, I don't think that this journey of moderation is a one-size-fits-all solution for everybody, too," she said.</p>

Disney can thank the reopening of Los Angeles movie theatres for the stellar hold in ticket sales. Cinemas in the City of Angels were given permission to resume operations on March 12, but most film exhibitors weren`t able to get up and running until now.<br />
<br />
Capacity in Los Angeles area movie theaters will be capped at 25%, or 100 people per auditorium, which is double the limit in New York, where its restricted to 50 people. Even with restrictions, Los Angeles accounted for nearly 9% of all movie tickets sold this weekend, according to Comscore.<br />
"This weekend showed solid results from holdovers, demonstrating the revenue-generating a horsepower of opening the biggest box-office market in North America," said Paul Dergarabedian, a senior media analyst with Comscore. "Eager movie fans in Los Angeles showed up in solid numbers to enjoy the big screen experience once again."<br />
<br />
AMC Theatres, the cinema chain with the biggest footprint in the country, has reopened 98% of its locations, including 40 venues in California, as of March 19. The circuit expects to reopen even more locations by March 26.<br />
<br />
"It was exactly one year ago that we closed all AMC locations in the United States," said Adam Aron, the CEO of AMC. "It gives me immense joy to say that by the end of next week we expect that 99% of our U.S. locations will have reopened."<br />
"Raya and the Last Dragon" amassed another $8 million overseas from 29 countries. The film, which is available to Disney Plus subscribers for an additional $30, has generated $71 million globally to date<br />

"The Courier," a Cold War drama led by Benedict Cumberbatch and Rachel Brosnahan, landed in third place with $2 million from 1,433 locations.

Roadside Attractions and Lionsgate, the film`s backers, reported strong turnout in Salt Lake City, Orlando and Dallas.<br />

Meanwhile, Johnny Depp`s "City of Lies," a crime drama about corruption in the LAPD, mostly fell flat. The poorly reviewed film cinched 11th place on box office charts, scraping together $275,049 from 501 screens.<br />
Focus Feature`s dark comedy "Promising Young Woman," which landed five Academy Award nominations, enjoyed a 117% increase in ticket sales, with $195,000 over the three days for a total of $5.7 million. And A24`s "Minari," a heartwarming drama about a Korean American family that scored six Oscar nods, saw receipts climb 85%. The film earned $306,000 this weekend, bringing its tally to $1.3 million.

'Raya and the Last Dragon' leads box office as L.A. theater revival boosts ticket sales

<p>Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's&nbsp;trespasser has now been arrested.<br />
<br />
An alleged trespasser was arrested for crashing through the gate of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex`s California residence.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
As per reports, a man named Nickolas Brooks from Ohio -- who drove across the country to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry`s home -- was arrested after being accused of trespassing their home twice in December last year.<br />
<br />
According to the Santa Barbara County Sheriff`s Office, the first incident took place on December 24 when police responded to the home that afternoon and cautioned Brooks. Two days later, the authorities responded to the home again and arrested the 37-year-old. He was accused of crime intruding and was booked in prison. He is not, at present in custody. As indicated by reports, Brooks has a criminal history, including a random lawful offense attack which is unrelated to this incident.<br />
<br />
Brooks also made a statement where he revealed that he was drunk when he was caught at the royal couple`s home on December 26. Fox News noted that he drove from his home in Ohio to the Sussexes` California property."It was a foggy period of my life. I didn`t even know where I was. I think I was high at the time," Brooks was quoted as speaking to The Sun.<br />
<br />
He added: "I don`t know why I went to their place, that`s kind of where I ended up. I drove across the country - I know it`s crazy."He also said he`s been "told to stay away and that I`m never allowed back there." He further claimed he does not have to appear in court and spent a night in jail following the incident.<br />
<br />
The duo relocated to America after announcing their decision to step back as senior members of the British royal family. The trespassing news came a few weeks after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex`s sat for a bombshell interview with American host Oprah Winfrey, where they discussed the reasons behind their decision to permanently step back from their royal duties, which they had first announced in January 2020.&nbsp;</p>

<p>No Zoom speeches, no jeans, and a returning veteran director: this year's pandemic-hit Oscars ceremony started to take shape Friday. The show on April 25, which will conclude a much-delayed Hollywood awards season, is taking place in Los Angeles with extensive Covid-19 testing precautions for nominees and their guests.</p>

<p>The Oscars will be directed for a sixth time by Glenn Weiss, the Emmy-winning live-show expert, and produced by a team including "Contagion" director Steven Soderbergh, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said Friday.</p>

<p>"Our plan is that this year's Oscars will look like a movie, not a television show, and Glenn has embraced this approach and come up with ideas of his own on&nbsp;how to achieve this," Soderbergh and his fellow producers said in a statement. "We're thrilled to have him as part of the brain trust."</p>

<p>Academy President David Rubin this week confirmed the show would be held at downtown Los Angeles' cavernous Union Station, as well as its traditional base at Hollywood's Dolby Theatre.</p>

<p>A letter sent to nominees, and confirmed to AFP Friday by a source familiar with the contents, informed those up for awards that there would be no option to dial in remotely if they win -- a feature used at last month's poorly reviewed Golden Globes.</p>

<p>"We are going to great lengths to provide a safe and enjoyable evening for all of you in person, as well as for all the millions of film fans around the world, and we feel the virtual thing will diminish those efforts," wrote the producers.</p>

<p>Urging nominees to attend "an intimate, in-person event" at Union Station, the producers assured stars that there will be "specially designed testing cadences to ensure up-to-the-minute results, including an on-site Covid safety team with PCR testing capability."</p>

<p>"Additional show elements" will come from the Dolby Theatre, just a few miles away in Hollywood. And in a seeming nod to some of the relaxed dress choices seen at the virtual Globes, Oscars producers added that "formal is totally cool if you want to go there, but casual is really not."</p>

<p>The details follow a largely in-person Grammys that took place in Los Angeles last weekend, which was praised by many watchers even as viewing figures continued to fall. This year's Oscars were delayed by eight weeks to April 25 after Covid-19 shuttered movie theatres, upended Hollywood's release calendar and placed live events on indefinite hold last spring.</p>

<p>California's severe winter coronavirus outbreak has rapidly eased in recent weeks, with movie theaters in Los Angeles allowed to reopen at limited capacity this week after a full year of closure.</p>

<p>Signaling their hope for a return to a new normal, producers used their letter to promise Oscar nominees "a safe, carefree evening (a glimpse of the future?)"</p>

The Oscars will be directed for a sixth time by Glenn Weiss, the Emmy-winning live-show expert, and produced by a team including "Contagion" director Steven Soderbergh, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said Friday. "Our plan is that this year's Oscars will look like a movie, not a television show, and Glenn has embraced this approach and come up with ideas of his own on how to achieve this," Soderbergh and his fellow producers said in a statement. "We're thrilled to have him as part of the brain trust." Academy President David Rubin this week confirmed the show would be held at downtown Los Angeles' cavernous Union Station, as well as its traditional base at Hollywood's Dolby Theatre. A letter sent to nominees, and confirmed to AFP Friday by a source familiar with the contents, informed those up for awards that there would be no option to dial in remotely if they win -- a feature used at last month's poorly reviewed Golden Globes.

Urging nominees to attend "an intimate, in-person event" at Union Station, the producers assured stars that there will be "specially designed testing cadences to ensure up-to-the-minute results, including an on-site Covid safety team with PCR testing capability."

And in a seeming nod to some of the relaxed dress choices seen at the virtual Globes, Oscars producers added that "formal is totally cool if you want to go there, but casual is really not." The details follow a largely in-person Grammys that took place in Los Angeles last weekend, which was praised by many watchers even as viewing figures continued to fall. This year's Oscars were delayed by eight weeks to April 25 after Covid-19 shuttered movie theatres, upended Hollywood's release calendar and placed live events on indefinite hold last spring.

Signaling their hope for a return to a new normal, producers used their letter to promise Oscar nominees "a safe, carefree evening (a glimpse of the future?)"

'Formal' in-person Oscars in hands of veteran director

<p>&nbsp;An 83-year-old widower on a mission to investigate potential abuse at a nursing home reveals telling lessons about the trials of growing old in Chilean filmmaker Maite Alberdi`s Oscar-nominated documentary 'The Mole Agent'.<br />
<br />
Although the story rings like the plot of a fiction film, the drama that unfolds is real. The tender and touching feature film, nominated for best documentary, is the only Latin American nominated for an Academy Award.</p>

<br />
With equal doses of humour and film noir, the 90-minute documentary tells the story of Sergio Chamy, a confounded but enthusiastic sleuth who barely knows how to handle a cell phone. He enters incognito into a senior home that is inhabited by elderly people from many different backgrounds finding one common denominator - loneliness.</p>

<br />
"The detective movie is just an excuse to talk about another topic, an excuse that is both funny and an original starting point ... [the film] is not about the case or the detective," said Alberdi, 37, in an interview with Reuters by Zoom.<br />
<br />
The intimate film questions the stereotypes of old age, using details of an universally appealing tale to reflect on the sense of abandonment felt by many elderly people who live in nursing homes. According to Alberdi, the aging population in Chile has the highest suicide rate.<br />
"Scientifically we have sought to help people live longer ... everyone wants to live longer, but no one wonders what they want from that extension of life," she said.<br />
<br />
During the filming, the residents of the home did not know that Sergio, who took the job to distract himself after losing his wife several months before, was a "spy" and found out only after the film was finished.<br />
<br />
"When we told them what it was about and they saw it, they laughed at the situation, more than anything else, they couldn`t believe that they hadn`t realized" that Sergio was a mole, said Alberdi.<br />
<br />
Available on Netflix, "The Mole Agent" premiered at Sundance, and won the Audience Award at the San Sebastian Film Festival. It was also a finalist at the Goya Awards and is the first Chilean film to be nominated for an Oscar for best documentary feature film.<br />
<br />
Alberdi`s documentary will compete with the South African Netflix production "My Octopus Teacher", "Collective," from Romania and the U.S. films "Crip Camp" and "Time". The director said she hopes the nomination will open doors to other Latin American women who dream of making films.<br />

"This marks a turning point not only for me but for many who will come after me (...) That is what fills me the most with pride, creating new dreams," Alberdi said. The Oscar awards ceremony will be held on April 25.</p>
