James Whale on the difficulties he faced while making "The Invisible Man" (1933): "When I began work on 'The Invisible Man', I took on the biggest and yet the most fascinating job I have ever tackled. Directing a picture is not easy in the best of times, but when the principal character spends a great deal of his time on the screen yet completely invisible, then one has a need for all one's ingenuity. It was all very well to film the scene without the actor but I knew that I had in some way to let the audience know clearly that the actor was there all the time although he was invisible. Therefore, in nearly every one of the 'invisible' scenes, I had to devise bits of 'business' so that the audience should know where the man was, what he was doing, and so on. In one scene I made him sitting in a rocking chair, so that by the movements of the chair the audience would realize that he was sitting there, although there was no sign of his presence. In another scene he is sitting in a chair talking to another person. I showed the seat of the chair sagging slightly as he sat down. Then, when his voice became more confidential, I had the chair moved a few inches toward the other person, as though the Invisible Man had drawn it closer for more intimate conversation." ("James Whale A New World of Gods and Monsters", James Curtis, 1998)

Very very important This is extremely shocking and the people of India deserve to know this. Last evening, Hon'ble Vice President of India and Rajya Sabha Chairman Sh Jagdeep Dhankar said in the House that "since the last 25 years, I have been an 'Eklavya' of the RSS". He then went on to shower praise on the RSS and said that his only "regret" was that he didn't join the RSS earlier. It was an open admission by the Hon'ble VP & Chair that he's a proud member of the RSS. Hon'ble VP & Chairman has the right to be a member of any organization that he pleases. However, 2 days ago, he expunged & removed parts of the speech of Leader of Opposition Kharge ji where he'd criticized the RSS. It is well-documented fact that the RSS is an organization that has been banned in the past for subversive activities. It is a communal organization and also, for the longest time, refused to accept the Constitution of India. Is it fair for the VP of India to be openly praising the RSS while sitting in a chair where he's expected to be neutral? It is extremely concerning and DANGEROUS that criticism of the RSS even by MPs is now being banned under the Modi Govt because the Chairman is a proud member of the RSS which he has openly admitted.

#WATCH | Hyderabad, Telangana | BRS MLC K Kavitha says, "There was a meeting held by the Jal Shakti Ministry yesterday to discuss the water sharing issues of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Unfortunately, the Chief Minister did not discuss the issues like the river linkage of the Polavaram and Banakacherla projects in the meeting. He sat through the meeting, and unfortunately, he gifted the Godavari water, which truly belongs to the people of Telangana, to Chandrababu Naidu. I condemn this act of our Chief Minister...A Chief Minister who failed to protect the rights of our people does not belong in that chair. We demand that he immediately resign"

Is Biden done? The simple truth is we do not yet know. We do know that he had the humility to come out today and acknowledge that while he may not be the best version of himself, he is better for the country than an energized Trump. Is this the best we can do?

You might be seeing a clip on social media that appears to show President Biden trying to sit in a chair that isn't there. However, this video doesn't show the full context of the moment. AP breaks down the moment.

#WATCH | Delhi CM Atishi says, "I have taken charge as the Delhi Chief Minister. Today my pain is the same as that was of Bharat when Lord Ram went to exile for 14 years and Bharat had to take charge. Like Bharat kept the sandals of Lord Ram for 14 years and assumed charge, similarly, for the next four months, I will run the Delhi government like that...Arvind Kejriwal has set an example of dignity and morality. For the last two years, the BJP has left no stone unturned to malign the image of Arvind Kejriwal. False cases were put on him, he was arrested and put in jail for six months...Arvind Kejriwal has said that he will not sit on the CM's chair until the public of Delhi shows trust in his honesty. So, he tendered his resignation. The chair of the Delhi Chief Minister belongs to Arvind Kejriwal. I am hopeful that the public of Delhi will elect him again as the Delhi Chief Minister. Till that, the chair will remain in this office and wait for Arvind Kejriwal"

the camera being in a tight close up on both ilya and shane for the entirety of this scene, except for the moment when ilya is working up the courage to say he’s in love. it’s like for the whole conversation it’s just the two of them, there’s nobody else who matters, and then for a brief moment the shot widens as ilya considers the implications of the fact he’s in love with shane. the fact that the rest of the world DOES matter and will always be a presence in their relationship. we’ve been held in this moment between the two of them and by widening the shot, that intimacy is broken just for a second as we’re reminded that there is a world beyond the two of them and ilya is still in russia. what he’s doing is incredibly dangerous. then the camera tightens back into a close up as he realises he needs to say it anyway because all that matters is that he’s on the phone with shane and he’s in love with him. it really is just the two of them in this moment and he doesn’t want to let anyone else in.

#MYMODISTORY My first meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, during a meeting in Lucknow was one of the most cherished moments of my life. After addressing a packed summit, he stepped down from the stage to greet people in the audience. To my utter surprise, he approached me, called me by name and greeted me with such familiarity and respect that I was deeply moved. That simple gesture carried immense meaning. Here was the Prime Minister of India leading a nation of over a billion people, yet he made the effort to recognize me personally. In that instant, I didn’t just feel acknowledged, I felt seen. It is rare for someone in such a position of power to carry such humility, but Modi ji does it so naturally. For me, that moment summed up the essence of Narendra Modi. A leader who embodies the pride of India on the world stage, yet always carries with him the ability to connect with people at a deeply personal level. That is what makes his leadership extraordinary: the blend of stature and simplicity, of power and humility. As Prime Minister Modi ji turns 75, I wish him many more years of leading the nation with the same unwavering determination and deep personal connect with the people.

Gavin Newsom’s foray onto the international stage went poorly this week, ultimately concluding in a talk where empty chairs presided over a gripe-fest where he literally offered to sell knee pads with Donald Trump’s signature on them … “in bulk.” The image could not be more stark. Empty chairs for him, standing room only for President Trump. And, indeed, Gavin Newsom was one of the attendees to President Trump’s speech left standing because he couldn’t find a chair. There used to be an unwritten rule that “politics stops at the water’s edge.” I am sure that this norm has been broken repeatedly by members of both parties throughout the year. But I am not aware of any American politician so clearly and unmistakably going on the world stage at the same location as the President with an explicit goal to “counter-program” the President and undermine foreign policy along the way. It’s a new low for a Governor who has consistently reaches for them. Especially during this week while a bipartisan group of California legislators bemoan the budgetary mess Newsom is leaving them on his way out the door.

Today we were in Shurugwi as we celebrated the passing of CAA3 which is a statement from the masses on their vision for the country. The Minister of State for Midlands Hon Owen Mudha Ncube was the guest of honour. It is futile for anarchists to continue peddling a state of national crisis when we have already moved to the next stage. The people spoke through the Public Consultations and through their MPs voted for the Act.

Gary Lineker has had an extraordinary career on and off the pitch. A brilliant sportsman, an outstanding broadcaster and a wonderful human being. For millions of people, Gary Lineker is the face of Match of the Day, but for millions more he is also the face of humility, warmth and decency. He had the courage to defend the humanity of refugees and to speak out against the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza. That should be recognised, remembered and celebrated. Gary will be a huge loss to the BBC, but we will never forget the compassion he has shown for others. Thank you Gary.

Extraordinary exchange between Rebecca Paul MP and the Chair of the Women & Equalities Select Committee. The Chair doesn’t seem to understand that the UK Supreme Court ruling clarifies the position for women’s sport. Really embarrassing for parliament & committee clerks
