As the thorny matter of eminent domain — the power of the government to seize private property for debatably public use — continues to flare up in American headlines, Courtney Moorehead Balaker’s “Little Pink House” arrives on screens as an earnest, adamant statement of opposition. Revisiting the Supreme Court’s famously contentious decision in the 2005 case of Kelo vs. City of New London, which ruled against a Connecticut homeowner standing her ground in the face of redevelopment by the Pfizer Corporation, Balaker’s heartfelt film holds attention as a straightforward account of a complicated case, and benefits from the intelligent, careworn presence of Catherine Keener as its human anchor amid all the procedural to-and-fro. If the story’s political and personal nuances have been a bit flattened in Balaker’s script, keeping proceedings in a movie-of-the-week register, this “Little Pink House” nonetheless retains what property developers would call good bones.

Ivanka Trump and Chelsea Clinton took to Twitter on Friday in support of Malia Obama, after photos and videos appearing to show the 19-year-old former first daughter smoking and kissing a young man at Harvard-Yale football game circulated on the Internet.
“Malia Obama should be allowed the same privacy as her school aged peers. She is a young adult and private citizen, and should be Off limits,” Ivanka, 36, tweeted.
Bill and Hillary Clinton's daughter, Chelsea, had similar sentiments, urging the public to respect Malia's privacy.
“Malia Obama’s private life, as a young woman, a college student, a private citizen, should not be your clickbait,” Clinton, 37, wrote. “Be better.”

Jacob Thompson loved Christmas but he knew the chances of him being alive for his favorite holiday were slim.
This is why the nine-year-old, who was diagnosed with Stage 4 neuroblastoma, asked to receive Christmas cards early, and thousands of strangers answered the call with cards filled with love and holiday wishes to bring him some early Christmas cheer.
Sadly, as he and his family had feared, Jacob passed away Sunday, a month before his beloved time of the year. Jacob’s parents, Michelle Simard and Roger Guay, from Saco, Maine, confirmed their son’s death on Facebook and GoFundMe on Sunday.

Heather Lind, the former star of AMC’s political drama series “Turn: Washington Spies,” accused President George H. W. Bush of sexual assault in an Instagram post that has since been deleted. The actress wrote that the former President “touched me from behind” while taking a photo at a March 2014 press event celebrating the television series.
Lind said she believed the action classifies as sexual assault and felt that Bush viewed it as “an attempt at humor.” She wrote that a security guard blamed her for the action for standing too close to the President, while former First Lady Barbara Bush allegedly knew what occurred and “rolled her eyes.”

Even more than the eyes and the jawline and that chin, which would later by framed by long Swingin' Sixties sideburns and covered by a ragged Seventies beard, it's the mouth of the kid in those early, black and white pictures that draws recognition.

The writer and actress shares her history with various forms of birth control, particularly as someone with endometriosis.

Those “off” periods came before she was diagnosed with endometriosis back in college.

Jenna Bush Hager once totally “humiliated” her twin sister Barbara Bush by trying to set her up with Prince Harry on national television. And while a love match never materialized between the two, in Jenna’s eyes, it’s Harry’s loss!
On Friday, the daughters of former President George W. Bush and former First Lady Laura Bush celebrated their 35th birthday. And in a message to her sister on Instagram, Jenna was quick to remind Barbara of her beauty.
She is a Serious babe,” Jenna wrote — hashtagging a shot of her sister “#princeharryeatyourheartout.”

Writer-director Tom Ford’s Nocturnal Animals is a movie that clearly fancies itself hip and ingenious, but ends up as flabby as the middle-aged obese women that dance naked in slow motion during the opening credits.
With Nocturnal Animals, Ford presents a dual storyline that alternates between a Texas-set Bronson-esque revenge tale and an arty Lynch/Refn-inspired look at the ugliness of modern life. Amy Adams stars as Susan, a wealthy but sad Los Angeles art gallery owner (those naked chubbettes are an exhibit) married to Hutton (Armie Hammer), an unfaithful stockbroker with money problems. One day a manuscript is delivered to Susan, a novel titled Nocturnal Animals, dedicated to her and written by her former husband Edward (Jake Gyllenhaal) who she has not spoken to in 19 years. She lays down to read it and suddenly we are in the book, where math professor Tony (Gyllenhaal again), is driving through...

Few people are as dedicated to their Halloween costumes as the hosts of the Today show. Although we were worried they wouldn't be able to top their Saturday Night Live homage from 2014 or last year's Peanuts theme, they pulled out all the stops on Monday while dressing up as some of pop culture's most notable icons from the '90s. Carson Daly slapped on some sideburns to dress up as himself during his Trl days and later slipped into a leather jacket to be the Terminator. Savannah Guthrie wowed as Demi Moore's naked Vanity Fair cover, and Al Roker ditched his suit for some high-waisted jeans, suspenders, and thick glasses to turn into Family Matters's Steve Urkel. Not to be outdone, Matt Lauer donned Jerry Seinfeld's classic puffy shirt with former Today anchor Bryant Gumbel, as Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb turned up as the hosts...

Jason from Mnpp here seizing the moment with this week's edition of "Beauty vs Beast" -- well, seizing one of many moments, but not only moments, because if life were only moments then we'd never know we had one. You know how it goes. Anyway this moment, this one of many not only, is the birthday of the director Rob Marshall, who makes magical movies that, uh... defy description. Like Into the Woods, perhaps? Yes, we are in the right story.
Previously Here it is a week later and I'm still pretty shocked it took me over 125 editions of this series to get to my favorite movie Rosemary's Baby - but who won? Well you guys sided with the Devil, just like the Oscars did, and gave the prize to Ruth Gordon's Minnie Castavet and her eternally chalky undertaste - said Marsha Mason:
"I think Ruth had the greater acting accomplishment.

Prince Harry had the time of his life when he kicked off the Invictus Games in Orlando, Fl, this week. The royal, who is also the patron of the sporting event for wounded veterans, was joined by Michelle Obama, George and Barbara Bush, Morgan Freeman, and singer James Blunt at the opening ceremony on Sunday. Throughout the week, he continued the festivities by posing with some Team USA members (and a few babies), shooting off a gun to start a race, huddling with some swimmers from the UK Armed Forces, and getting up close and personal with 95-year-old Ruth Uffleman. After awarding medals to various veterans at the Games' closing ceremony, Harry delivered a moving speech, saying, "Those medallions are the real prizes, for the years of intense rehabilitation you've put yourselves through to be here. The competition has been fierce with performances of the highest international standard across a number of events.

As Barbara Bush and Jenna Bush Hager grace the March issue of Southern Living, the sisters are waxing nostalgic about the easy, breezy days of childhood. "Some of my favorite summer vacations were weekend getaways at our lake house in Athens, Texas," Jenna recalled. "We stayed in a two-bedroom cabin that didn't have TV. We read, played outside, and took nighttime walks with Dad. That was the best." The close-knit twins, 34, both reside in New York City, just blocks from each other, and are almost constantly in touch - "We talk at least 10 times a day," Jenna said. Barbara said...
