Theodore “Theo” Decker was 13 years old when his mother was killed in a bombing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The tragedy changes the course of his life, sending him on a stirring odyssey of grief and guilt, reinvention and redemption, and even love.

Through it all, he holds on to one tangible piece of hope from that terrible day... a painting of a tiny bird chained to its perch. The Goldfinch.

Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name by Donna Tartt.

Jackie's whole life revolves around her son Angelo, so when she discovers he has dropped out of college and moved in with his father in order to pursue his dream of surfing, she travels from New York to California to try to convince him to rethink his choices.

After a heated exchange between mother and son, Jackie decides that the only way to understand Angelo's reasons for picking surfing over college is to take up the sport herself.

Stubborn by nature, Jackie is determined to master the craft by herself, blankly refusing help offered from passers-by, until, that is, she is rescued by handsome surfer Ian who takes it upon himself to give her a few lessons, in life as well as surfing.

Early modern Britain witnessed a transformation in legal reasoning about human volition and intentional action, which contributed to new conventions and techniques for the theatrical representation of premeditated conduct. "Theaters of Intention" examines the relation between law and theater in this period, reading plays by Shakespeare, Jonson, Marlowe, and others to demonstrate how legal understanding of willful human action pervades sixteenth- and seventeenth-century English drama.
Drawing on case law, legal treatises, parliamentary journals, and theatrical account books, the author considers the interplay between theatrical deliberation and legal dramatization of human intention. He analyzes such canonical plays as "Hamlet," "Timon of Athens," "Dr. Faustus," "Bartholomew Fair," and "Othello" alongside less familiar texts, including Barnes's "The Devil's Charter," Jonson's "Entertainment at Althorp," and the anonymous "Nobody and Somebody."
Notable instances of the new theatrical representation of premeditated conduct include the appearance in "Hamlet" of wording from the sensational case of "Hales versus Petit" and dramatizations of contract law in enactments of demonic pacts in the plays of Marlowe and Barnes. The final chapter examines the iconography of Nobody, an early modern equivalent of John Doe, and features some dozen illustrations of contemporary woodcuts, drawings, and engravings.
Tied closely to the convergence of authorial and dramatic forethought, theatrical representation of premeditated action demonstrates the close relationships among purposeful human behavior, fictionality, economic exchange, and the experience of time.

Offbeat sci-fi comedy starring Luke Wilson. In 2005, Private Joe Bowers (Wilson) is a soldier chosen to take part in a secret military scientific experiment in which he will be put into induced hibernation for one year, along with a woman named Rita (Maya Rudolph). Bowers is chosen for the assignment because he is statistically the most average man in the army, while Rita is a hooker ordered to do community service. Unfortunately, Bowers and Rita are forgotten about when the military base where the experiment took place is closed down, and when they wake up in the year 2505. Bowers finds himself living in a society where intelligence has taken such a landslide he's now the smartest man in the world.

However, with Royal's history of lies and betrayal, his offspring - who all now have problems of their own - are going to have trouble welcoming him back.

All five films and three TV series from the Jackass franchise in which Johnny Knoxville and friends perform a variety of crazy and dangerous stunts. 'Jackass: The Movie' (2002) sees the boys having fun and games with golf carts, urine-soaked snow cones and self-inflicted paper cuts. Series regulars Bam Margera, Steve-O, Dave England, Chris Pontius (alias Party Boy) and Jason Acuna (alias Wee Man) all make an appearance. The crew returns in 'Jackass: Number 2 Uncut' (2006), pushing the limit of what is morally acceptable to commit to celluloid even further, with more cringe-worthy stunts, more nasty spills and more stupid pranks than even the first movie. 'Jackass 2.5' (2007) offers another foray into self-torturing stupidity, featuring all the stuff they couldn't show you on television. The boys take their stunts to all-new heights that will leave you laughing, squirming, and begging for more. 'Jackass 3' (2010) sees another onslaught of insane and painful pranks including bull riding, a paintball shootout and rocket jet-skiing and bungee jumping while strapped to a (full) toilet. In 'Jackass 3. 5' (2011) Bam Margera, Steve-O, Johnny Knoxville, Chris Pontius and the gang return for their most up to date plethora of pain, stupidity and humiliation. The film features firework stunts, skateboarding through a series of dangerous obstacles, 'extreme' skiing and Steve-O being painfully introduced to a snapping turtle. 'Jackass Season One' (2000) launched the TV careers of Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera and Stevo amongst others as they brought their blend of dangerous stunts and appetite for pain to the MTV audience. In 'Jackass Season Two' (2001) the gang returned to endure more pain and trauma for the benefit of the viewing public. 'Jackass Season Three' (2002) marks the final TV instalment of the popular show in which Johnny Knoxville and deranged colleagues including Steve-O and Wee Man perform more 'don't try this at home' stunts.
