If you are a fan of the classic TV sitcom Seinfeld, then you have seen how big a role cereal plays in Jerry’s life. However, the famous comedian has taken his love to a whole new level with the over-the-top portrayal of the reinvention of breakfast as Pop-Tarts hit the market in Unfrosted. Unfrosted is a comedy that stars Seinfeld, but it also marks his directorial debut for a comedy feature film.

Throw your theories and predictions in the trash because "Yellowjackets" doesn't give a single fermented berry about our feelings and is flipping the script. Is Adam Javi? Doesn't Matter 'Cause He's Dead Now! This week opens with Shauna stabbing her lover to death while her mind is flooded with flashbacks, so it seems like teen Shauna is going to stab someone at some point too (my money is on Jackie) but this all goes down before we even hit the opening credits!

This colorful gangland drama was made by a studio in transition, in the middle of a crippling musician’s strike. Robert Taylor and Cyd Charisse were MGM’s last contract stars; her costumes and dance numbers are wildly anachronistic for the period setting and she refused to take direction from Nicholas Ray, whose career was coming apart at the seams. Yet the maverick director must have done something right, as the show has remained a favorite of audiences and critics. Co-starring Lee J. Cobb, John Ireland and Corey Allen. The Wac’S remastered Blu-ray is a beauty.

1958. American actor Robert Taylor with Cyd Charisse on the set of Party Girl, a film by Nicholas Ray.
Cyd Charisse in Nicholas Ray’s Party Girl (1958) will be available on Blu-ray November 30th from Warner Archive
When maverick director Nicholas Ray turns his talents to a gangster movie, a familiar genre becomes startling and new. Under the auspices of long-time M-g-m musical producer Joe Pasternak, and with the added gloss of the CinemaScope widescreen and Metrocolor, the auteur created a cult classic. Set in 1930s Chicago, Party Girl follows a bum-legged mouthpiece for the mob (Robert Taylor) and a gorgeous, wised-up vamp (Cyd Charisse) who fall in love, try to go straight… and head straight for trouble.

The original vamp on 70 years of showbiz life, having Boris Johnson as a boss and why partying is a dying art
Dame Joan Collins, 88, was born in Paddington and trained at Rada. She began appearing in films while still in her teens, with more than 70 credits including Our Girl Friday, Land of the Pharaohs, The Virgin Queen, The Stud and The Bitch. During the 80s, she found fame as Alexis Colby in the US soap Dynasty, a role that won her a Golden Globe. In recent years she returned to TV with the likes of The Royals, Benidorm and American Horror Story. Her new memoir, My Unapologetic Diaries, is out now.

Sharp Shock to Your Soft Side: Theis Mines the Uncomfortable Realities of Sexuality
In the one-hundred-and-twenty-five years since the detrimental trials of Oscar Wilde and the ‘love that dare not speak its name,’ which would evolve into the tempestuous terminology of ‘homosexuality,’ culture wars have yielded considerably in LGBTQ+ assimilation (at least in varying hierarchical intersections of privilege). For his first stint behind the camera since co-directing 2014’s Party Girl, Samuel Theis tackles a provocative intersection of class and age with Softie (Petite nature) an exploration of one young boy’s sexual awakening who also happens to be ‘from the wrong side of the tracks.’…...

Laura Fairrie’s family-sanctioned film praises the author’s personal courage, work ethic and feminism-lite but doesn’t delve very deep
Mega-selling author Jackie Collins enjoyed her big-haired and shoulder-padded heyday with raunchy books like Hollywood Wives, The Bitch and The Stud; now she is celebrated in this family-sanctioned fan-documentary praising her personal courage in the face of spousal abuse, her work ethic and her feminist-lite celebration of commercial success for sexually attractive women. It’s watchable, with some stinging rebukes for the male snobs – including, I’m sorry to say, Clive James, normally a great pop culture ally, shown here in a gruesome TV clip alongside Bernard Levin mocking Collins in her absence.
Collins grew up in the shadow of her more glamorous older sister Joan Collins, she had some cosmetic work done (which she was delighted with) and tried, like Joan, to crack Hollywood. When that didn’t work out,...

Jackie Collins epitomizes one of the 20th century’s favorite types of star: the celebrity novelist who gets rich and famous writing scandalous best-sellers about fictionalized scandalous celebrities. She rode in from England to Hollywood to take up her throne as the queen of the delectably trashy sex-and-shopping paperbacks, peaking in the Eighties, right around the time her real-life big sister Joan Collins starred in the prime-time soap Dynasty. Jackie turned herself into a wildly successful one-woman factory for fantasies with nuanced titles like The Bitch and The Stud. Yet...

There is a riveting moment in “Lady Boss,” an insightful documentary about the life of novelist Jackie Collins, in which we see Collins preparing her face for the camera. She brushes her bangs a bit with her finger as if to give herself something positive to do, but there is turmoil going on behind her eyes; it looks like she is struggling to hold down enormous pain and insecurity, and this struggle is intensely active, for there was nothing passive about Collins.
Once the camera is ready for her, Collins has arranged her face into the semi-snarly made-up armor that she presented in her glamorous public life, which always included large hair, shoulder pads and a liking for leopard-print fabric. Collins was English, but her books were very successful in America because she subscribed religiously to the American urge for self-reinvention.

Young U.S. model and actor Lola Sultan (“Bernie the Dolphin”) is attached to star alongside Australia’s Abbie Cornish in family action-adventure film “Dakota,” which is set to start shooting this month in Italy.
“Dakota” is being directed by Kirk Harris (“Bernie The Dolphin”) and produced by Italy’s Iervolino Entertainment, which is tapping into the Italian production tax rebate that currently allows a 40% deduction on eligible production costs.
Andrea Iervolino, Monika Bacardi, Danielle Maloni, Marty Poole, Kirk Harris and Ace Underhill are producing. Johnny Harrington (“I Still Know What You Did Last Summer”) wrote the screenplay.
“Dakota” is the name of a combat dog that belongs to Marine Clet Sanders who tragically dies in Afghanistan. Sargent Tj Malcom fulfils a promise to bring Dakota, who is Clet’s best friend, home to his family’s farm.

Erick Morillo, the producer and DJ known for the 1993 number “I Like To Move It” that was featured in Madagascar, was found dead Tuesday morning in his Miami Beach home. He was 49. A cause of death has not yet been confirmed.
The musician, who was arrested in August and charged with sexual battery in December, was set to appear in court on Friday, Miami’s Local 10 reported.
Morillo was born in New York and began making music in the early 1990s as Reel 2 Real. In 1993, the musician collaborated with Trinidadian singer Mad Stuntman for his 1993 hit “I Like To Move It,” which helped Morillo leave his mark on the music scene. The iconic house song was first featured in Party Girl in 1995 and a number of titles before the early aughts.

Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande went into the awards with the most nominations: nine apiece, including seven for their chart-topping collaboration “Rain on Me.” That made “Rain on Me” the most nominated video of the year, which isn’t too surprising given Lady Gaga’s strong track record at these kudos. Before this year she had won 13 times over the course of her career, including seven for “Bad Romance” in 2010. That was the second most awarded video of all time, behind only “Sledgehammer” by Peter Gabriel, which won nine trophies in 1987.

We may still have a few questions about this year's MTV Video Music Awards - like who's hosting the night of music - but at least we know everyone who's nominated! Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande are leading the pack of nominees with nine nods each thanks in large part to their instant club collaboration "Rain on Me," followed by Billie Eilish and The Weeknd with six nominations each. Not only does this year's list of nominees host two quarantine-specific categories (best music video from home and best quarantine performance) but it also has a couple of history-makers: Eilish is the first artist in Vma history to nab two video-of-the-year nominations while still in their teens and Grande is the first artist to be nominated for video of the year three years in a row since Beyoncé's run from 2014 to 2016, just to name a couple. Who will take home a "Moon Person" this year?...

DaBaby and Roddy Ricch’s “Rockstar” notched another week at Number One on the Rolling Stone Top 100 Songs chart, fending off a strong challenge from the new remix for Jack Harlow’s breakout hit, “Whats Poppin.”
“Rockstar” racked up 26.2 million song streams for the week of June 26th through July 2nd, which helped it move a total of 245,100 song units. Meanwhile, the “What’s Poppin” remix — which coincidentally features DaBaby, as well as Lil Wayne and Tory Lanez — fell just shy at Number Two with 25.6 million song streams and 217,900 song units.

Obviously, the summer of 2020 is not an ordinary season, and Spotify’s predictions for the Song of the Summer reflect that. There are songs like DaBaby’s “Rockstar” (feat. Roddy Ricch), Megan Thee Stallion’s “Savage” (feat. Beyoncé), “Tkn” by Rosalia (feat. Travis Scott) and “Watermelon Sugar” by Harry Styles, which was released in 2019 but continues to stream in high numbers.
But there are also many songs focused on supporting the Black community — some that dropped in the past few days, like Beyonce’s “Black Parade,” H.E.R.’s “I Can’t Breathe” and Lil Baby’s “The Bigger Picture,” and some that are a couple or a few years old, like “This Is America” by Childish Gambino and “Alright” by Kendrick Lamar.
In no particular order, here is Spotify’s list of predictions for Songs of the Summer 2020, which you can stream now in this playlist:
• “Rockstar” by DaBaby, feat.

Happy birthday to Linda Ronstadt’s New Wave album Mad Love, released 40 years ago, in March 1980. It’s the weirdest oddity in her catalog, with three Elvis Costello covers. Mad Love is forgotten by time, written out of her official history. Not even Linda has a kind word for this album. In the acclaimed 2019 documentary, Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice — which treats every one of her career moves as a stroke of brilliance — Mad Love doesn’t get mentioned much. But for some of us, it’s one...

That the trade press could write such reports about a friend to hang out with at parties at least, without first fact checking and interviewing their longtime colleague/ friend Ben or an actual witness is reprehensible because with a care–less stroke of their pen, they seem to have blocked any academic institution from ever interviewing Ben again.
