<p>Contrary to what the reports say, Jennifer Aniston is single at the moment.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
The 'The Morning Show' star, in a recent interview, talked about being ready for a new relationship.</p>

<p><br />
When asked about her current dating status, Aniston said, "No, not at the time. No, I’m not. I feel like I’m getting there. Hasn’t been time... It’s COVID. Although people seem to have met and found love during COVID. I don’t know how it works,” the actress said. “I’m curious to walk up to those people and go. ‘So what, how did, what happened?’"<br />
But, the actress did mention that she is ready to open to the idea of sharing herself with another human being.</p>

<p>"There’s been no one of importance has hit my radar yet. But I think it’s time. I think I’m ready to share myself with another. I didn’t want to for a long time, and I loved really being my own woman, without being a part of a couple, where I’ve been a part of a couple since I was 20. So there was something really nice about taking the time."<br />
Aniston went to the extent of jokingly asking, “Why, do you have someone you want to set me up with?”</p>

<p><br />
The 'Just Go With It' star also talked about how the idea of romance has changed over the years. "There it is, chemistry, and you see each other from across the room. People don’t come up to people anymore, people don’t do that. It’s, it’s, it’s a weird, it’s weird."</p>

<p><br />
Also, the actress feels first kiss between partners plays a crucial factor in relationships but "also the ease at which the conversation flows the first time. That’s kind of a good indicator, confidence, but not a cockiness. Humour, please I beg of you, beg of you. Generous, kind to people, you know, it’s just very few necessities."</p>

"I had dinner at Diane’s. Which was memorable. &nbsp;I will never forget. So many little isms, Alex-isms are taken from Ms. Sawyer. There was definitely a coffee and a red bull moment in the mornings. There was the working out like basically half asleep. Diane would actually run down Fifth Avenue to get to work. Cause when else are you going to work out? So she would run down Fifth Avenue into Times Square of course, followed by her driver who was like, ‘don’t, please don’t’, but yet cheering her on ‘Go, go Diane go Diane.’"</p>

<p>"Oh gosh. It was really great. It was romantic. We really romanticized it in a way,” she said. “And then doing it. It was a big ouch in a weird way… we ended at a time where yes, we were saying goodbye to 10 years of this family, but we also had everything ahead of us. And it was exciting.

<p>Clearly, director Hagai Levi wanted to spare no time in actually 're-imagining' this re-told, miniseries version of 1973-released Ingmar Bergman classic, 'Scenes From A Marriage'. After the warm-up of an introductory episode, Levi breaks free from Bergman chain of events as shown through his eyes, in his episode two of the series many decades ago.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Here, unlike its predecessor, Levi doesn't give us a crash course on who Mira and Jonathan were as individuals--all we know is that they are a couple only on paper.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
An otherwise put together Mira confesses to Jonathan that she has been having an affair with a man for a while now, "I am in love with someone," she tells. Jonathan, blind-sided by this piece of information, doesn't know how to process this harsh truth of life. To him, his wife seeking solace in the arms of another man is not an indication of how far they have gone in their respective journeys as humans, but only a knowledge&nbsp;'he doesn't know what to do with.'&nbsp;</p>

<p>Oscar Isaac's Jonathan is a repressed individual who, even when his wife he most certainly still loves, walks out the door, doesn't scream out in pain. Instead, chooses to purse his lips together and bite. Till it hurts. Mira's moment of truth may have been the highlight of this&nbsp;episode and the shock value Levi obviously wanted to inculcate, but she is a woman of stead habits, too. She knows with all her might that the relationship is hanging by a thread, yet, before exhibiting her first-ever act of bravery--of leaving the man she bore a kid with--Mira has to wrestle with her demons: "If I don’t leave now, I might never."</p>

<p><img alt="Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain bring their A game to the series" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="e4fbbbc7-a45c-43b5-8c21-082ab212ba9d" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/pjimage%20-%202021-09-14T215147.205_0.jpg" /><br />
The juxtaposing of these similar-yet-different characters may not score high on the barometer for originality (Marriage Story/ Netflix) but the cracks through which this couple falls, and continues to descend, makes this modernised version truly modern--both in tone and treatment.</p>

<p><br />
Aptly titled 'The Art of Sweeping Things Under the Rug' (bold approach, told you!), the episode yet again starts with a real-life, behind-the-scenes setting with Isaac plugging in his earphones before we are ushered into the devastation that he is about to suffer. There are no other characters that are introduced apart from these two. But, who cares? Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain are so&nbsp;taut as Jonathan and Mira that the monotony of each scene does not squish the purity of the emotions felt. If anything, they act as elevators.&nbsp;</p>

Mira's moment of truth may have been the highlight of this episode and the shock value Levi obviously wanted to inculcate, but she is a woman of stead habits, too. She knows with all her might that the relationship is hanging by a thread, yet, before exhibiting her first-ever act of bravery--of leaving the man she bore a kid with--Mira has to wrestle with her demons: "If I don’t leave now, I might never." The juxtaposing of these similar-yet-different characters may not score high on the barometer for originality (Marriage Story/ Netflix) but the cracks through which this couple falls, and continues to descend, makes this modernised version truly modern--both in tone and treatment. Also read: The Starling review: Grief knows not what grief does Aptly titled 'The Art of Sweeping Things Under the Rug' (bold approach, told you!), the episode yet again starts with a real-life, behind-the-scenes setting with Isaac plugging in his earphones before we are ushered into the devastation that he is about to suffer. There are no other characters that are introduced apart from these two. But, who cares? Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain are so taut as Jonathan and Mira that the monotony of each scene does not squish the purity of the emotions felt. If anything, they act as elevators. 'Scenes From A Marriage' is now streaming on Disney + Hotstar.

Scenes From A Marriage EP 2 review: Living is not the same as existing

<p>Science-fiction author Arthur Clarke once decreed that any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. At the core of “Foundation,” the Apple TV+ series based on the novels of Isaac Asimov, is a similar idea: that any sufficiently advanced math is indistinguishable from prophecy.</p>

<p><br />
But in this ambitious, overstuffed epic, that intriguing idea often gets lost in space. Like Trantor, the imperial capital in “Foundation” whose surface is buried beneath human-made layers, the story’s core ends up enveloped in levels upon levels of machinery.</p>

<p><br />
The instigating figure remains the same as in the saga that Asimov began spinning in the 1940s: Hari Seldon (Jared Harris), a “psychohistorian” who purports to be able to predict the future by number-crunching the data on mass populations. (He is the Nate Silver of space.) When his calculations determine that the ruling empire will collapse, the bearer of bad news and his followers are exiled to a planet in the dusty, cheap seats of the galaxy, where they work on a grand plan to shape humanity’s fate and shorten the coming era of chaos.</p>

<p><br />
At a time when “follow the science” has become a political statement, “Foundation” can play like a none-too-subtle commentary. Hari’s protege, Gaal Dornick (Lou Llobell), comes from a world whose leaders condemn scientists as heretics and refuse to acknowledge the rising of the oceans. And Harris plays the visionary with a doomed-prophet rectitude that recalls his turn as a Soviet scientist in “Chernobyl.”</p>

<p><br />
This echoes the Asimov books’ atom-age belief in the power of reason over superstition. But the “Foundation” showrunner David Goyer is also willing to depart from the source material. Asimov’s galaxy was largely a boys club, for instance, so “Foundation” recasts key roles with women, including Gaal — as close to a central figure as the series has, although she is sidelined in the middle of the season — and Salvor Hardin (Leah Harvey), a leader of the Foundation’s remote colony.</p>

<p><br />
Elsewhere, the series adds or shuffles story elements to create the kind of baroque intrigues viewers are used to from the likes of “Game of Thrones.” The role of the emperor is expanded — to be precise, it is tripled. In the empire’s “genetic dynasty,” Emperor Cleon (conveniently an anagram for “clone”) has been replicated for centuries in three persons: young Brother Dawn, middle-aged Brother Day and elderly Brother Dusk.</p>

<p><br />
Every generation, the eldest member of this living Sphinx riddle is ceremonially (and lethally) retired, a fresh baby emperor is uncorked from the cloning vat, Dawn is promoted to Day and Day to Dusk. (I told you there would be math.)</p>

<p><br />
Lee Pace, sheathed in electric-blue gladiator armor, plays a succession of Brother Days. His matinee-villain hauteur risks ridiculousness — say, when having an underling exploded like Creosote in “Monty Python’s The Meaning of Life” — but he energizes an often-stilted production.</p>

<p><br />
In a way, the genetic dynasty and the Foundation are two solutions to the same dilemma: How do you achieve ambitions that take longer to realize than a human life span? For Cleon, the answer is to live serially. For Hari, it is to craft a plan that will outlive him, in part by creating a quasimessianic myth around himself. (Dealing with mortality is also the project of religion, yet another story thread in the series.)</p>

<p><br />
But this is also the challenge of “Foundation” itself. Its premise and Asimov’s blueprint suggest a story that needs to unfold over centuries, shuffling cast members in and out, focusing more on larger systems of society than on individuals. Serial TV, on the other hand, relies on audiences connecting to specific characters over the long haul.<br />
The cloning device is one way to keep characters around over the ages; there are more spoilery contrivances, too. Other changes Goyer makes serve to translate Asimov’s talky novels of ideas into a pageant of explosions and special effects.</p>

<p><br />
For instance, much of the 10-episode first season gets bogged down in an extended terrorism and revenge story that makes Salvor into an action hero. The thriller sequences — involving an enemy straight out of the Klingon-Dothraki warrior-society school — most resemble what viewers expect from a sci-fi epic. And I found myself increasingly tuning them out the longer “Foundation” went on.</p>

<p><br />
The images are certainly arresting. There are spacecraft with interiors like art installations; alien worlds with beringed and bemooned skyscapes; and some sort of mysterious giant lozenge that floats near the Foundation camp like a portentous piñata, promising to burst open and spill forth plot twists and dei ex machina.</p>

<p><br />
But there are things you can’t digitize: a surprise, a genuine laugh, the breath of creative life. Beneath the gunplay and computer-generated imagery, there’s a much weirder show struggling to get out, about statistics and space popes, decadent clone emperors and millennia-old robots.</p>

<p><br />
OK, there is only one robot, but “Foundation” makes her count. As the undying aide to a long line of emperors, Demerzel (the name will ring a bell for hard-core Asimov fans), Finnish actress Laura Birn gives an eccentric performance that is both disconcertingly mechanical and the most vulnerably human of the series.</p>

<p><br />
This and some of the odder inventions of “Foundation” reminded me stylistically of last year’s “Raised by Wolves,” the HBO Max drama of obsessive android maternal love. It was hardly the best show of 2020, but it was so committed to its passion, so willing to cut open a vein and bleed weird robot milk, that I was held rapt even by its worst moments.</p>

<p><br />
“Foundation” is more consistent than “Wolves,” but less magnetic because of its concessions to sci-fi expectations. It could have been better, if only, like Hari Seldon’s disciples, it had faith in the plan.</p>

Review: The math of ‘Foundation’ doesn’t add up

<p>Hollywood actor Chris Hemsworth made quite an impact last year with his action flick on Netflix, 'Extraction'. Now, the streaming service has revealed during their ongoing fan festival, TUDUM, that Hemsworth will be coming back with a sequel.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
The first part of 'Extraction' was directed by Sam Hargrave based on a script by Joe Russo that saw Tyler Rake traveling to Bangladesh to rescue the kidnapped son of a shady man.</p>

"We talked about that extensively. Truthfully, I always walk around my house or walk around town looking for ways to do something fun or different with action. I kind of think as if there's a camera behind my eyes all the time like, 'What would be an interesting way to capture this?', 'Oh, that'd be cool.' So I'm always cataloging and trying to get different, fun ways to capture action and different action set pieces that would be great. Joe and I talked a lot about that, pitched some ideas, bounced them around, and I'm just excited for the challenge," said the director.</p>

Britney Spears' fiancé Sam Asghari wants Netflix's documentary profits to go to her

<p>Cary Fukunaga, director of the 25th James Bond film 'No Time to Die', has said that Sean Connery’s version of the secret agent 007 was 'basically' a rapist.</p>

<p><br />
In an exclusive interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Fukunaga referred to a scene from 'Thunderball' (1965) wherein Connery's version of Bond had kissed a nurse by force who had refused to give in to his sexual advances. At a later part of the movie, Bond strikes a deal with the nurse--he will hold back career-threatening information against her if she compromises, sexually.&nbsp;</p>

"I suppose my silence could have a price," Bond says.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Reacting to that insinuation, the nurse replies, "You don’t mean … oh, no," to which, Bond replies "Oh, yes" before pushing her into a sauna and taking her clothes off.</p>

<p><br />
"Is it Thunderball or Goldfinger where basically Sean Connery’s character rapes a woman?She’s like ‘No, no, no,’ and he’s like, ‘Yes, yes, yes.’ That wouldn’t fly today," said Fukunaga, reportedly.&nbsp;</p>
