Lisa Banes is in critical condition following a hit-and-run in New York City, her manager told the Associated Press. The actress, best known for her roles in
Gone Girl and Cocktail, was hit on Friday evening.
Banes manager said she was struck by either a scooter or a motorcycle in the Upper West Side of Manhattan near Lincoln Center as she was crossing Amsterdam Avenue on the way to visit her alma mater, the Juilliard School. She is being treated at Mount Sinai Morningside hospital for substantial injuries.
Police declined to name the hit-and-run victim, and no arrests have been announced, AP reports.
British impresario Malcolm McLaren’s headstone reads, “Better a spectacular failure, than a benign success.” So it goes in life and, sometimes, at the movies.
Hollywood makes lots of movies. Most of them aren’t good. Sometimes the good ones make money (lots of the bad ones do, too), but then sometimes.they don’t. Films fail at the box office for many reasons, though a poor release date, a distracted news cycle, a disconnection from the zeitgeist, a flagging trend not always because they’re bad. Some infamous money-losers rank with my favorite movies and probably yours, too.
What follows are 35 films that didn’t connect with audience in theaters which is a nice way of saying they flopped, earning less in ticket sales than they cost to make and market. Sometimes, it’s easy to see why (Speed Racer hit 10 years too soon). Other times, not so much (why did John Carter stumble where Avatar flew?). But whatever the reason, these films were initially viewed as disappointments
Gore Verbinski and legendary cinematographer Roger Deakins worked together on the animated film
Rango, and now it looks like the two are reuniting for not one but two new animated features. Verbinski revealed the news himself, although he also remained a little tight-lipped about what we can expect. We know two things for sure: neither animated feature will be a Western, like
Rango, but one of them is a musical.
Gore Verbinski hasn’t made a film since 2016’s criminally underrated
A Cure For Wellness, but it looks like he’s ready to get back in the saddle. Word broke the other day that Verbinski was directing a movie adaptation of George R.R. Martin’s
