In Park City, sofas all over the world are the most important seats-undoubtedly setting the tone for an unprecedented outing, and everyone in the industry is thinking about how this movie (and perhaps more importantly the market) is played. It turns out, very good.

The alum behind "the box in the box" makes Park City’s thermal underwear pile on its historical price tag.
This is a movie that more closely matches the quirky independent film (in the festival, "may" stands for "commercial crossover"), and usually makes the studio excited to take out the checkbook.
This is not to say
The cash grab did not cause an impact among the festival crowd. Especially for a film without a famous star, breaking the previous record of $8 million is huge. The industry is currently at a crossroads, movie theaters around the world are still closed, box office revenues are falling freely, and the impact of the closure of COVID on movie theaters is still a hail of question marks.
So, consider this $25 million act of kindness, which is not possible with a sweeter movie.

Regarding a drummer, he is struggling with sudden hearing loss and trying to adapt to a hearing impaired community.
It is indeed an amazing movie. The music fragments of this movie will arouse enthusiastic applause from the festival audience during the screening, and with such a heartfelt encouragement, it will arouse more than one group sobbing meeting, hoping to applaud after obtaining credit. .
With critics and filmmakers at screenings outside their homes this year, applause, crying, and celebrations all shifted to social media, after the embargo ended, those who fine-tuned the film almost with ecstasy Express appreciation, especially after a heavy year in industry and the world, some good, cathartic sobbing.
Representing deaf adults and children, they are the only members of the deaf community. They are listening to music but growing up with ASL as their first language.
Ruby, played by Emilia Jones, is the only hearing member in her family. Her mother (Oscar winner Marlee Matlin), father (Troy Kutsur) and brother Leo (Daniel Durant) are all deaf and use sign language to communicate.
They are a fishing family. Ruby, Leo and her father start their day on the water at 3am every day. This is in Gloucester, Massachusetts, where the economic vitality of the family business is waning. The smell of mackerel on the flannel was only heard by Ruby, and was seen as an outsider in her high school auditorium, while Ruby was more prominent.
Compared to Getty (Amy Forsyth), her best friend with straightforward and adventurous spirit, she is quiet and cautious, but has the courage to sign up for the choir elective. She did this partly because she was obsessed with its star male singer Miles (Ferdia Walsh-Peelo), partly because she had a desire to become a singer, and this passion not only flew away on her face. The interests of the family have the ability to appreciate.
Eugenio Derbez played the talent expected by the choir teacher-the "posture" concept itself has reached a matching level here-and has potential in Ruby. He treated her as a solo performer, played a duet with Miles, and prompted her to participate in a scholarship audition at Berkeley College of Music. Although she never believed in herself, this was the hope he saw.
He helped her find her own voice, and saw a world beyond what she thought her family's situation would limit her. In a movie about a girl who grew up in a deaf family, all this is incredible, and thank God for that. Nothing can explain the authenticity, the wonder of this movie-there is no better or more appropriate word to describe the story of this family than this movie.
Not only did Ruby's family not understand her interest in singing, but they also thought it was betrayal. They rely on her as a translator in all aspects of life and their interaction with the listening world. They offended her by choosing to focus their lives on things they couldn't appreciate; they couldn't hear her singing. "If I am blind, do you want to paint?" Her mother maliciously signed her.
Ruby's singing opened the box of things that Pandora hadn't said between mother and child. When they finally found the answer, Ruby asked her mother bluntly if she also wished she was born deaf. The answer is daunting, but more honest than any movie that usually has this courage.
Heder meticulously designed a narrative structure that links the familiar rhythms of the adult story or the adult story in this example. You already know the road map from the beginning. But Heder will calibrate every stop in the journey with the perfect emotional tone, not to mention the sensitivity to the character and the community that rarely appears on the screen.
There are two kinds of music playing here, these songs bring new meaning to Ruby's life, but also convey the sign language when communicating between families. They worked together and carefully arranged a profound emotional viewing experience. (I wish you good luck and pass the Joni Mitchell film's reproduction of "Both Sides Now").
the comment of
Filmmaking is almost more positive than people usually expect, at least in terms of structure that insists on such a well-tested formula. But what follows is the background of our time, the vortex of chaos and darkness, making this prudent, open structure an exciting treatment, and I don’t think critics will be surprised.
This is a movie about how art helps people focus when facing the toughest battles in life, and how the passion for art helps people see themselves as they really are, helps them recover and leads them to a brighter future.

This is a movie about how we aspire to connect and how art (even if you don't think they can do it) can take people across bridges, find common ground and truly understand each other.

For many people working in the film industry and the film industry as a whole, the Sundance Film Festival in January last year was the last real "thing" of the "previous era" before the COVID closure.
The festival is beginning to be disturbing again. In some ways, it is a shocking reminder of how much time has been spent, and how much loss has been suffered. The logistics of the virtual festival is equally bizarre and absurd. With such great power to make things start so brilliantly-no wonder it has been full of emotional watersheds since then
The first screening.
Many people wonder whether the pandemic Sundance Film Festival will or may attract buyers in the same way, or whether the uncertainty facing the film industry will cause a market downturn.

President Biden is easing the expectations of his large donors for the ambassador, indicating that he will not issue plum positions for several months, and hinting that he will nominate fewer positions than his predecessors. The big picture: The president supported the Democratic Party's efforts to strive for diversity when choosing a cabinet. Now lawmakers are putting pressure on him to extend it to his embassy, which means that white male donors (the core of his fundraising base) will compete for fewer positions in the competition. CEOs, entrepreneurs, and high-level politicians become smarter and faster when they read the news. What we are listening to is: Biden is most likely to reward loyal politicians and former aides, and the race for former senators such as Claire McCaskill is held in Europe. *In terms of policymakers, former Biden aide Julianne Smith can be nominated as NATO ambassador. *Among the donors, Denise Bauer, Obama's ambassador to Belgium, is the top fundraiser. In the most coveted position, she may return to Europe, perhaps Paris. *Doug Hickey, another of Biden's major donors, is also interested in foreign positions. *Former HBO executive, James Costos, who served as Obama’s ambassador to Spain, expressed interest in the UK, but there are many others, including Comcast executive David · Cohen (David Cohen). Real estate investor Louis Frillman and Latino Victory Project president Nathalie Rayes told colleagues that they are interested in Madrid or another European position. Beijing has a reputation, and the White House is pleased that its special envoy has the political power to spot any potential problems. *If Biden appoints Disney Executive Chairman Robert Iger as his interest, he will tell Biden officials of his interest, which will break this situation. Biden's plan to visit the State Department on Monday, weather permitting, is a symbolic display of his quest to revitalize diplomacy. And emphasized the United States' commitment to allies and partners. He is also expected to make remarks on his foreign policy measures. *Although the president will definitely appoint some donors to the top positions, others are worried that they will be overthrown and eagerly demand a solution. *Although more than 800 people and couples have raised more than $100,000 for Biden’s presidential campaign, the more savvy “bundle labor” groups have raised much more than this amount, and have also reported to the Biden Victory Foundation Provided donations of up to $620,000. People familiar with the matter said that of the approximately 190 ambassadors, 30% are non-professional nominations, and the remaining 70% are professional diplomatic affairs. *According to the American Foreign Service Association, the ratio of 70:30 will match the traditional breakdown. *President Trump created a bias by nominating about 44% of appointed political ambassadors. * The 2018 Foreign Policy report stated that Trump’s nominees are also very different. 90% of his vacancies are for whites. Deeper: The political field has been roughly divided into three categories: policy experts, politicians and donors. *Biden expects to attract more funds from the first two categories, thereby reducing the number of positions for donors who wish to limit successful business careers through foreign positions. *Biden has a huge network of Belway friends and allies, but has never been so successful (or overly dependent) on money and celebrity courses in New York and California.

Taiwan’s Ministry of National Defense stated that six Chinese fighter jets and a U.S. reconnaissance plane entered the southwest corner of Taiwan’s air defense identification zone on Sunday, an unusual recognition of U.S. military activities. Tensions have surged in the past week or so after Taiwan reported that many Chinese fighters and bombers flew into the area near the Platas Islands controlled by Taiwan in the northern part of the South China Sea last weekend.
Authorities in north-central Mexico reported on Sunday that gunmen armed with two motorcycles broke into a weekend party, robbed them, then returned a few minutes later and opened fire, killing six men and a woman. Jalisco state prosecutors said the attack occurred on Saturday night.

Report: Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi was detained in the raid and the military controlled the country for one year. The Myanmar military declared a state of emergency. US President Joe Biden informed Myanmar of the unrest. The military threatened to take "action" against so-called election fraud. Australia asked the leader to release the Burmese leader’s ruling National League for Democracy spokesperson, said Aung San Suu Kyi and other senior figures in the ruling party had been detained in the early morning raid. The military launched a coup on Monday and announced that it had controlled the country for one year in a state of emergency. This move was aroused by the escalation of the increasingly tense situation between the civil administration and the powerful military. People were worried about a coup after the election, which the military called fraud. Spokesperson Myo Nyunt told Reuters that Suu Kyi, President Win Myint and other leaders were "taken away" in the early hours of the morning. Please follow the latest updates below.
KYIV-Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told "axios on HBO" that he does not see China as a major geopolitical threat, even if he vowed to limit China's control over critical tasks. A position may also cause him to conflict with the Biden administration and Congress. Why it matters: Zelensky's remarks represent a break between the US national security leaders of the two main parties that are trying to rally allies to counter the threat of the Chinese Communist Party. Be smart: Sign up for free to get China’s most influential newsletter. US: Drive News: When asked about the emerging consensus in Washington that China is the world’s largest geopolitical threat, Zelensky said: “I I don’t agree with this, because in Ukraine, we don’t feel that way.” He said: “There is indeed such a cold war between China and the United States.” * “We know that the US business is represented in Ukraine, but at the same time, the Chinese business There are indeed representatives." * "I believe that regardless of nationality, nationality, people, business, a certain country, you will be respected, respect your people and borders, and they will appear in your country." Between the two sentences: Only the United States must play such a big role to push Zelensky away from China. Beijing suppressed Washington in vaccine diplomacy, which is a painful reality discussed by Zilensky in the "Axios on HBO" interview. Zelensky tried to obtain a higher quality American vaccine for his country. He promoted the help of Europeans. But considering his difficulty in obtaining a dose, he said he is willing to cooperate with Beijing to obtain a large amount of safe COVID vaccine for the Ukrainian people. *It is worth noting that the United States has not provided Ukraine with its high-quality vaccines, and has actually taken steps to make it difficult for Zelensky to obtain them. Behind the scenes: How to deal with the China issue is a growing pain point in U.S.-Ukraine relations. Trump administration officials privately expressed concern that China-which became Ukraine's largest trading partner in 2019-injected ample cash into China, instead embedding itself in key Ukrainian sectors including defense and telecommunications. *US officials worry that China will steal intelligence secrets and exert evil influence on allies that increasingly rely on Beijing. Yes, but: Senior U.S. government officials have been trying to persuade Ukraine to prevent China from buying the aero-engine Sich manufacturer for years, which is the number one jewel of the Ukrainian defense department. * Zelensky made it clear for the first time in an interview that he will not allow China or any other country to buy a controlling stake in Sich. * "Never," he said. "Not under me. I don't live here... [but] during my [time in office], absolutely not. The most important thing is that Russia’s focus on Ukraine is much closer. But when Russia annexed Croatia in 2014 China never condemned Russia’s actions when he was in Crimea, so although Zilensky may not list China as a threat, he knew that China could not be relied on in the Russia-Ukraine crisis and supported safe, smart, and sensible journalism. , Please sign up for Axios newsletter here.

Senator Susan Collins (R-Maine) led 10 Republican senators, including moderate Senators Mitt Romney (R-Utah) and Lisa Merkowski (R-Alaska) – Announcing plans on Sunday to announce the $600 million COVID – they believe that there are 19 relief plans that can be used as a bipartisan alternative to President Biden’s $1.9 trillion plan, which the Republicans believe is too expensive. These details are expected to be announced on Monday, although the Washington Post reported that it may not include Biden’s proposal to raise the federal minimum wage, and it is reported that it will also reduce a new round of $1,400 for individuals earning $50,000 or less. Eligibility for stimulus testing or couples whose annual income does not exceed $100,000. Republicans want to meet with Biden to discuss their objections. They wrote in a letter: “We hope to cooperate sincerely with you and your government to address the health, economic, and social challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.” Whether the Democratic Party is willing to discuss this idea remains to be seen (Biden’s The top economic adviser reiterated on Sunday that the president is determined to act quickly), but, as the Post pointed out, the fact that 10 Republicans were involved in the plan is significant. .

In his new role in climate change, the prime minister’s father said that agriculture needs to go back to old-fashioned methods to improve the environment. Stanley Johnson announced today that he is the new international ambassador for the Conservative Environmental Network (CEN). The author has long been an advocate of green issues and an ardent supporter of "barbaric", and recently visited some of the newly introduced bears in Italy. He is expected to talk about wild farming activities at COP26, the main climate change conference scheduled to be held in Glasgow this summer. The zealous Mr. Johnson told the Telegraph about his views on agriculture and explained: “This is not barbaric, but a return to the old farming methods. Rain-fed farming, herbivorous farming, and not even doing so. The value of carbon emissions from planting trees is higher. "It is absolutely necessary to change the British farming system, and as we withdraw from the European Union, this is an amazing way. I just agreed to be the international ambassador for the Conservative Environment Network. We will focus on climate change conferences. Of course, this is not an honorary task, and I will not ask for such a big salary! "His son Boris Johnson currently has no plans to ban intensive farming and force farmers to return to old methods, despite the government's action. A payment plan for farms that use land to improve the environment. The father and son seem to have reached a consensus on the beaver issue. It is understood that Boris Johnson has purchased rodents for his father’s land.

You have a fountain pen, a fountain pen covering a few acres and You can make a pond with some tap water. I need to be very careful because the pond may be dry or the whole place may be flooded, and they may be washed away by the river water, which will cause me trouble.

People familiar with the matter confirmed to CNN and The New York Times that five lawyers who were preparing to defend former President Donald Trump in the former Senate impeachment trial have left his legal team. Butch Bowers and Deborah Barbier were considered the two lead lawyers, and Josh Howard, Johnny Gasser and Greg Harris were also eliminated. No other lawyers announced that they were involved in the case, so it seems that Trump is irrefutable. According to reports, the lawyer left due to differences in legal strategy. Trump reportedly wanted them to promote his unfounded claims of widespread voter fraud in last year’s presidential election, instead of focusing on whether the conviction of the former president after he left office was constitutional. This argument seems to be Republican. The consensus among people and his reasons. I may be acquitted. The source said that Bowles and Trump lacked a chemical reaction, and it was reported that the decision to leave was mutual. It is not clear where Trump will go-it is reported that his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani wants to accept the case, but he is a potential witness at the trial because he was charged in Trump Speaking at a rally before inciting a deadly congressional riot, the New York Times pointed out that first, "almost all" of Trump advisers blamed Giuliani for his impeachment.

The new research aims to provide telephone companies with tools to help curb robocalls. Peter Dazeley/The picture library research profile via Getty Images is a short excerpt of interesting academic works. It is a good idea that over 80% of robocalls come from fake numbers-answering or not answering these calls has no effect on the number of calls you will get. These are the two main findings of our 11-month unsolicited phone study from February 2019 to January 2020. To better understand how these unwelcome callers work, we monitored every call received from more than 66,000 phone lines at the Robocall Observatory at North Carolina State University in the Telephone Security Laboratory. During the research process, we received 1.48 million unsolicited calls. We answered some of these calls, while others made us ring. Contrary to popular belief, we found that answering calls has no effect on the number of automatic calls received by the phone number. Throughout the research process, the weekly automatic call volume remained unchanged. As part of the research, we also developed the first method to identify the robot call activity that led to a large number of such annoying, illegal and fraudulent robot calls. The main types of robot call activities are related to student loans, health insurance, Google business listings, general financial fraud and long-running social security scams. Through the use of these technologies, we have learned that, on average, more than 80% of calls in each robot call activity use fake or short-lived phone numbers to make calls they don't need. Criminals use these phone numbers to deceive their victims, making it more difficult to identify and prosecute illegal robot callers. We have also seen that some fraudulent automated telephone wiretapping activities caused government agencies to impersonate for many months without being discovered. They used messages in English and Mandarin and threatened victims with serious consequences. This information targets the disadvantaged, including immigrants and the elderly. Why important providers can use a time-consuming manual process (called backtracking) to determine the true source of the call. Today, too many robocalls cannot be used as a practical solution that goes back to every call. Our automated telephone campaign recognition technology is not only a powerful research tool. Service providers can also use it to identify large-scale robocalling operations. Using our method, the provider only needs to investigate a small number of calls for each robocalling event. By targeting sources of abuse of robocall, service providers can block or shut down these operations and protect their subscribers from fraud and illegal telemarketing. Vendors are deploying a new technology called STIR/SHAKEN, which may prevent robocallers from spoofing their phone numbers. Once deployed, it will simplify the backtracking of calls, but not for providers using older technologies. Call bots can also quickly adapt to new situations, so they can find a solution to STIR/SHAKEN. No one knows how automated callers interact with victims and how often they change their strategies. For example, more and more automated phones and crooks are using COVID-19 as a prerequisite to deceive people. What's the next step In the next few years, we will continue to study robocall. We will investigate whether STIR/SHAKEN reduces robot calls. We are also developing technology to better identify, understand, and assist providers and law enforcement targets in automated phone operations.

Officials said on Sunday that Mexican soldiers and immigration agents rescued a 2-year-old girl from Chile because she had apparently fallen into the Rio Grande River, while the adults with her left her and crossed the river to enter United States. The National Immigration Institute said the incident occurred on Saturday when a group of immigrants crossed the river near the city of Acuna, opposite Del Rio, Texas. The agency said the adult made a gesture and pointed it out to the toddler soldiers and soldiers and immigrants, who then went into the river to rescue her.
European diplomats speculated on Saturday that Ireland may have planned to pull Joe Biden into the border. Irish officials may threaten to use their government’s relationship with the US president to force the European Commission to reverse the situation. Dublin’s unwarned threat to the European Union’s borders triggered a tense appeal between Irish Taoist Minister Michael Martin and European Commission President Ursula von der Lein. Diplomats in Brussels believe that Dublin may have “picked up Biden’s bat phone” or reminded President von Delane’s attachment to Ireland and the peace process. Mr. Biden is of Irish descent and often warns Britain not to establish a hard border in Ireland. The committee’s move aroused anger in Dublin because the Irish government had previously convinced that any hard border on the island need not be one of the foundations of the final Brexit agreement.
