The Village Voice

The Village Voice

The Village Voice was a pioneering American publication focused on news and culture, recognized as the first alternative newsweekly in the nation. Established in 1955 by Dan Wolf, Ed Fancher, John Wilcock, and Norman Mailer, it served as a voice for New York City's creative community. Although it ended its print run in 2017 and halted online updates in 2018, its archives remain available for public access online. In January 2021, the website resumed publishing original stories, and in April 2021, it released a spring print edition.

    Do they make movies like they used to? They sure have made a lot of silly, swashbuckling, symphonically absurd treasure hunt movies in recent years, with throwbacks like Dora, Uncharted and Tomb Raider attempting to rekindle a semblance of that wonderful genre. The new Guy Ritchie flick, Fountain of Youth, bucks that promising trend — it’s a bloated, increasingly derivative treasure hunt movie with a star-studded cast and a brain-numbing plot.
