Harvey Weinstein’s attempt to subpoena every last email, text message and direct message exchanged between one of his rape accusers and four of her friends going back 18 years was shot down by a Los Angeles County judge on Monday.
Judge Lisa Lench said the subpoenas were “overbroad” and likely would violate the support witnesses’ right to privacy as the disgraced movie mogul’s California-based serial rape case closes in on its October trial date.

A Los Angeles judge on Monday ruled to limit the amount of information that could be obtained by Harvey Weinstein’s defense team for his upcoming trial on 11 counts of rape and sexual assault.
Judge Lisa B. Lench approved the prosecution’s motion to quash subpoenas from four witnesses for their correspondence, including personal emails and texts dating as far back as 2004, with one of the alleged victims (referred to as Jane Doe #4). However, the judge said she wouldn’t prevent the defense from serving future subpoenas to victims, and wouldn’t ask them to notify the prosecution in advance about attempts to serve.
“As I read the subpoenas, they are over-broad and they call for confidential information between those parties,” Lench said, referring to the witness’ privacy rights.
She also quashed subpoenas to the Los Angeles Police Department and Beverly Hills Police Department for investigation results, as well as a witness’ mental health records,...

This is as sexy as Hollywood pix got in 1960. John O'Hara's novel about class snobbery and the drive for success posits Paul Newman as a moody go-getter. In glossy soap opera fashion, his silver spoon-fed bride Joanne Woodward morphs into an unfaithful monster. Some adulterous relationships are excused and others not in this glossy, morally rigged melodrama. In other words, it's prime entertainment material. From the Terrace Blu-ray Twilight Time Limited Edition 1960 / Color / 2:35 widescreen / 144 min. / Ship Date January 19, 2016 / available through Twilight Time Movies / 29.95 Starring Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward, Myrna Loy, Ina Balin, Leon Ames, Elizabeth Allen, Barbara Eden, George Grizzard, Patrick O'Neal, Felix Aylmer.

The cinema of 1970 is at something like the taboo level of literature 50 years ago
Film producer writer Larry Kramer has done a skilful package job on "Women in Love." His script is as faithful as can be expected to so long a book and the result is richness of incident and strength of storyline. On top of this Kramer has several sex scenes plus the value of D. H. Lawrence's name to publicise them and the directorial vividness of Ken Russell. That the total result is more like John O'Hara than D. H. Lawrence, more like a respectable best seller than a probing genius, is in a sense a further tribute to Larry Kramer: he is after all in the best seller business.
Seeing the movie sent me back to the book and the conclusion that the sex scene business has got itself into an impossible artistic situation.

It's been quite some time since the period gangster genre has had any sort of presence on the big screen, but unlike the "Godfathers" and "Goodfellas" and movies that glorify the crime side of things, the action thriller Gangster Squad looks at the war on organized crime from the police point of view. Based on true story of Los Angeles in the 1940s, it stars Ryan Gosling and Josh Brolin as Sgts. Jerry Wooters and John O'Hara who assemble a team of officers, played by Anthony Mackie, Michael Peña, Giovanni Ribisi and Robert Patrick, to work outside the law to take on the influx of criminals from Chicago, most notably Mickey Cohen as played by Sean Penn. What might not be so obvious from the trailers and commercials is that it's also the latest movie from...

Every writer hopes to see his book reviewed in The New York Times. The grand slam is to be reviewed twice, both daily and Sunday. On last Thursday, Janet Maslin reviewed "Life Itself" and it was the best review I could possibly hope for. On Sunday, Maureen Dowd reviewed it in the NYTimes Book Review. Another positive review--indeed, for Dowd, positively generous. ("A captivating, movable feast.") But near the top it contained a zinger. "Ebert is a first-rate second-rate memoirist," she wrote. I cringed, and then I smiled. If there was ever an example of snark that I fully deserved, it was this one. First of all, it is fair enough. If Nabokov's Speak, Memory is an example of the first-rate memoir, then the bar has been set pretty high.
But Dowd, who knows how to line up her ducks in a row, had established a context. "On his first day of classes,...

"Death disports with writers more cruelly than with the rest of humankind," Cynthia Ozick wrote in a recent issue of The New Republic.
"The grave can hardly make more mute those who were voiceless when alive--dust to dust, muteness to muteness. But the silence that dogs the established writer's noisy obituary, with its boisterous shock and busy regret, is more profound than any other.
"Oblivion comes more cuttingly to the writer whose presence has been felt, argued over, championed, disparaged--the writer who is seen to be what Lionel Trilling calls a Figure. Lionel Trilling?
"Consider: who at this hour (apart from some professorial specialist currying his "field") is reading Mary McCarthy, James T.

Child actor who became a Hollywood film star known for her dazzling beauty and her eight marriages
The film star Elizabeth Taylor, who has died of heart failure aged 79, was in the public eye from the age of 11 and remained there even decades after her last hit movie. She managed to keep people fascinated, by her incandescent beauty, her courage, her open-natured character, her self-deprecating humour, her eight marriages (two of them to the actor Richard Burton), her many brushes with death, her seesawing weight, her diamonds and her humanitarian causes, all of which often obscured the reason why she was famous in the first place – she had a tantalising screen presence, in films including A Place in the Sun (1951), Giant (1956), Cat On a Hot Tin Roof (1958), Butterfield 8 (1961), Cleopatra (1963) and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

Episode 11 of "Supernatural" sees the return of both Death and Balthazar as Sam and Dean make an "Appointment in Samarra". Let's hope things turn out better for the Winchester boys than they do for the main character in the John O'Hara novel of the same name (he performs a series of uncharacteristically impulsive acts, culminating in suicide).
Episode 11 "Appointment in Samarra" Synopsis: (12/10/10 Air Date)
Dean (Jensen Ackles) seeks out Death (guest star Julian Richings) to help get Sam's (Jared Padalecki) soul back. Death tells Dean he will help Sam if Dean will agree to act as Death for 24 hours. Meanwhile, Sam decides he doesn't want his soul back and asks Balthazar (guest star Sebastian Roché) for a protective spell to keep his soul out of his body. Balthazar tells Sam he needs the blood of his father for the spell to work, and since John Winchester is dead, Sam decides...

Hollywood producer with a string of hit films, including Jaws
For a man who went to Hollywood late and without much enthusiasm, the career of the film producer David Brown, who has died of kidney failure aged 93, was spectacular. He was responsible for putting on screen some of the most memorable and profitable film classics of recent times, including The Sting, which won an Oscar in 1973 for best film; Jaws (1975), which broke records and established its director Steven Spielberg; the highly praised Cocoon in 1985; Driving Miss Daisy, which won an Oscar for best picture in 1989; A Few Good Men, nominated as best film in 1992; the director Robert Altman's critically acclaimed 1992 Hollywood satire The Player; and Chocolat, nominated as best film of 2000. For the last of these, Brown was well into his 80s when he supervised filming on location in France.
