Created by Stern, the official Jaw pinball machine features a shark, chum bucket, and pictures of Richard Dreyfuss and Robert Shaw. It looks magnificent.
It’s almost 50 years since Jaws first terrorised a generation of would-be swimmers, but incredibly, there’s never been an officially licenced pinball machine based on Steven Spielberg’s killer shark thriller.
That is, until now. As reported by IGN, the Chicago-based manufacturer Stern has unveiled a toothsome and entirely official Jaws pinball table.
Its features include a video screen that shows clips from the 1975 movie alongside helpful hints (“Shoot the fin!!”), airbrushed likenesses of actors Robert Shaw and Richard Dreyfuss, a motorised shark fin, and a chum bucket that tips over when struck by your silver ball.
It also includes newly-recorded soundbites from Dreyfuss himself, as well as samples of John Williams’ unforgettable durr-durr-dunnnn score.
Stern is also manufacturing three versions of the Jaws table,...

At times, those who lie to their partners support their dishonesty by arguing that it was done with the intent of protecting the person’s feelings and maintaining harmony in the partnership. Such individuals are often seized with the belief that sometimes revealing the truth might cause unnecessary pain and damage the emotional bond between partners. Such moral quandaries are the spine on which the premise of the Malayalam film Aayirathonnu Nunakal (1001 Lies) is structured and explores these aspects surrounding lies and secrets to raise potent questions about the sacrifice of truth involved in forging and sustaining relationships. While some of the scenes in the films merit our engagement, they lack a cohesive narrative and fail to effectively tie together their exploration of ethical conundrums. Though the film wants to be as sharp as a scalpel in dissecting the intricacies of married relationships in our contemporary society, it falls short...

ReviewThis Malayalam film streaming on SonyLiv has a crowded cast, but the seamless screenplay, strong direction, smooth editing, and intelligent shot selection ensure that you understand each character.Screengrab / 1001 NunakalThe most popular maxim when it comes to marriage in India has to be the one about uttering even a thousand lies to make a wedding happen. Honesty, then, isn’t a virtue that’s traditionally recommended in the institution of marriage. Directed by Thamar Kv who co-wrote the film with Hashim Sulaiman, 1001 Nunakal is about the nature of truth and lies. Though we may automatically say that we prefer the former, can we really handle it? Perhaps Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men (1992) was onto something when he famously yelled, “You can’t handle the truth!” 1001 Nunakal is set in Dubai where the close-knit Nri Malayali community depends on each other in times of crises. An apartment fire triggers...
