I was explaining in my language that a strong vibe of Ògún was feeling in the Ògún Festival at Ilẹ̀ Oluji and this guy just came to threat me 😂 The intention of the post is not to expose him, because he did nothing and basically kept quiet….. (1/2)

But to also comment two things. The energy of every Òrìṣà is real and people with other beliefs (you can see clearly) want to be the focus of attention of traditional indigenous celebrations.

Sorry for that experience. Perhaps, he's under the influence of liquor, however, that is not an excuse. That singular behaviour do not define us a a group of people. Once again, sorry for that show of shame.

Thanks for that, believe me that I’ve been into more situations like that and that’s why I could manage it that way. To love a place and their people we can’t only take the good things into account, but all of them… if not, is not real love

John Carpenter on how Howard Hawks's "Rio Bravo" (1959) inspired him to become a filmmaker: "As I got older I began to see that certain directors did certain things. One of the earliest examples of this was Roger Corman. I started going to see these exciting, fast, kind of cheesy but really fun monster movies, and there was one name that kept coming up on the screen: Roger Corman. 'It Conquered the World' (1956), 'Not of This Earth' (1957), 'Attack of the Crab Monsters' (1957), 'The Undead' (1957)... But | really understood for the first time what a director did when I saw 'Rio Bravo' in 1959. There was something about that movie that was like home and I can't really explain it. It was held over in Bowling Green for three or four weeks in a row because people kept coming to see it. I abandoned to see what was new in the other movie house in town to see this movie every weekend again and again because there was something in it that was different from the other westerns I had seen. I had certainly seen John Wayne before. He had become a part of my growing-up experience. He was the action guy, the cowboy. He was the guy in 'Flying Tigers' (1942) who was flying the airplanes. So what was so different about that movie? Then I became aware of this credit: “Howard Hawks’ Rio Bravo.” I looked at the poster and I said to myself, “Who is this guy? He didn't write the movie and he wasn't starring in it so why is his name up here? And why is he last in the credits?” All these things started to occur to me, but it was the emotional impact of the film that got me to start using my brain. Some way I figure out that this director made that movie." ("The Prince of Darkness: The Prince of Darkness", Gilles Boulenger, 2001) P.S: Remembering the great American filmmaker Howard Hawks on his 130th birthday.

There have always been moments in history when the unthinkable or the unspeakable have occurred. Moments recorded in the pages of history, where we must use our imagination to conjure up images of the pain and suffering those that lived through those moments endured. Never in a million years do we ever imagine from the lofty height of our comfortable existence, WE will become the subject of one of those stories that future generations will look upon in the same way today we look upon 1930’s Germany. I have taken the liberty of adapting the now famous words of Pastor Martin Niemöller First they came for the black people And I did not speak out Because I was not black. Then they came for the Mexicans And I did not speak out Because I was not a Mexican. Then they came for the Muslims And I did not speak out Because I was not a Muslim Then they aided and abetted Israel to murder Palestinian women and children And I did not speak out Because I was not a Palestinian Then they came for the LGBTQ + community And I did not speak out Because I was not a member of that community. Then they came for the poor, the vulnerable and the disabled And I did not speak out Because I was none of these. Then they came for the students and the Universities And I did not speak out Because I was not a student Then they came for the journalists And I did not speak out Because I was not a journalist Then they came for the lawyers And I did not speak out Because I was not a lawyer Then they came for Medicaid And I did not speak out Because I was not on Medicaid Then they came for the Social Security And I did not speak out Because I did not need Social Security. Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me History will judge us not for who we are, but what we did in a moment when democracy whimpered in a dark corner of the room begging to be protected from a malign force intent on reducing two and a half centuries of progress to ashes. In this moment of peril, history will ask, did we subjugate our values, our hopes and aspirations to a convicted criminal and adjudicated rapist? Or did we stand firm as did members of our military, many of whom made the ultimate sacrifice, that we may honor their sacrifice in this moment, and stand against the very threat they gave their lives to defend us from. Never in the history of this great nation has there been a moment when the resolve of its people means so much to so many around the world. Nations now threatened by a man leading an international crime syndicate and extortion gang from behind the sacred resolute desk, on which laws that have formed the very foundations of the global order have been signed. Laws that America has upheld, protected and preserved for decades as it led the world since the end of World War Two. Democracy and freedom deserve better than to live in fear of a madman who serves nobody but himself and his obscenely rich accomplices. Martin Luther King Jr had a dream, but it looked nothing like this. 🎥 TikTok -

Aaron Paul says his Breaking Bad audition was so bad he apologized and thought his chances were over. But creator Vince Gilligan recognized him from an episode of The X-Files, a moment that helped save his audition and earn him the role of Jesse Pinkman “When I got Breaking Bad, I was at the lowest point in my career, just in terms of finances. I didn’t know where my next check was gonna come and how I was gonna pay my bills” “I walked into that audition and Vince was very excited that I had done an episode of The X-Files. He asked me what episode did I do. I said, ‘Lord of the Flies,’ and he started laughing. He said, ‘You did the role Sky Commander Winky. That was my nickname in college.’ And that just broke the ice. It just felt like Vince was already in my corner before I even started” “The pressure was on. A roomful of people, stadium seating, and you have to prove yourself. I do it, and that's the audition you see me, apologizing. Like, Oh my God, I just fucked this up” “So I walk out, and I'm just biting my nails. I'm desperate. I really have no money. It wasn't that I was in love with the material. I also had to have this happen. The casting came out and brought me back in, and Vince was in the hall and wanted to have a talk with me. And that right there, I was like, okay, he's still in my corner. He just gave me some advice and I went back in, did my audition again” “They didn't let me know for two weeks. The reason why they took two weeks is because, honestly, no one wanted me other than Vince. Finally, he said, this is the guy I want. He made it happen. Thank God”

Denzel Washington’s epic monologue towards the end of Training Day was largely improvised on set. Director Antoine Fuqua was so blown away by his performance, he says he thinks he "forgot to yell cut”. He explains… “That’s Denzel. He was just in his zone. I mean, that was one of those moment...people talk about AI. Those are the moments where you go...it's a great tool. It's gonna be a great tool, I think...but the emotion, and the moment that an actor can bring - you can't predict that. That's something that's just inside of Denzel. And when that came out, I was just like - I hope I got it. I just turned to my operator - who was shaking- I looked over at the guy - I was like, “please tell me you got that.” Because that was the take. That was it. There was no other take - I mean, how do you tell an actor like that, that that wasn't good enough? …He walked over to me, and he just had this look in his eyes. I was like, “you good?” He said, “you good?” I said, “Yeah…” Some of that was in the script, but he flipped it the way he did it. "Putting cases on all you." He kind of added some things in there. And then he just went into a whole other zone with the whole King Kong thing- with Pelican Bay - Denzel started that. That was Denzel. That was him, man. He just kind of lit up, and I think I forgot to yell cut. I was just watching it, because everybody started walking away, and I'm just watching him, and then he lights a cigarette - and he's talking - and I'm just watching him. I think at some point he probably looked at me like, you going to cut? And I'm like, “oh yeah, yeah, cut.” He was still in it. That's the thing with Denzel. He was so Alonso…I'm just watching him for a while because I didn't know what else he was going to do. It was just so magical. And then I think he looked up at me and I was like, “Okay, cut, cut.”
