The Andor finale is not really the end. The surprise final shot proves that. But in an overall sense, the show blends directly into another Star Wars film—2016’s Rogue One—to seamlessly connect with how Diego Luna’s Cassian Andor helps lead a team of Rebel spies to steal the Death Star’s top secret design plans.

Stephen King, à peine âgé de 19 ans, a mis le point final de son premier roman, Marche ou crève (The Long Walk en VO), en 1967, alors qu’il était encore étudiant à l’université du Maine. Contre toute attente, cette œuvre de jeunesse est parvenue à échapper à l’oubli et porte encore en elle l’écho du violent conflit qui l’a inspirée ; elle a traversé les années et survécu aux nombreuses tentatives avortées de porter à l’écran sa noirceur désespérée.

It was supposed to be Rita Hayworth’s epic return to the silver screen. Instead, the Hollywood icon’s role in the 1972 Western The Wrath of God became the last moviegoers ever saw of her. As she faded away in the years that followed, a heart-wrenching disease would come into greater focus. Hayworth herself would not be spared from the worst of it, but countless others around the world would be helped by her story. It’s a bittersweet legacy, but one that continues to this day.

The Long Walk has survived against the odds. It still resonates decades after the violent conflict that inspired it, and has now finally overcome the many failed efforts to adapt its bleak narrative for the screen. The story, about a group of young men in a dystopian future who embark on a life-or-death marathon with no set finish line, was the first novel Stephen King ever wrote. He was only 19 at the time, finishing it as a student at the University of Maine in 1967.

Darren Aronofsky ha capito di essere riuscito davvero a catturare l'essenza della vita notturna selvaggia e imprevedibile di New York quando, durante le riprese del suo nuovo film, si è trovato a fronteggiare… una spruzzata di urina.

Darren Aronofsky knew he was truly capturing the essence of New York’s wild and unpredictable nightlife when his new movie got hit with a sprinkling of urine.

Aronofsky rubs the back of his neck and brings up The Incident. “Well, a PA got peed on from someone on a fire escape. That was intense,” he says.
