TORONTO – Actors Andrew Rannells and Nick Kroll appeared on Jimmy Fallon’s Tonight Show last month to talk about their new horror movie I Don’t Understand You – a film they shot in Lazio in 2024. The plot follows a married couple, who, while vacationing in Italy, attempt to adopt a child without any knowledge of the Italian language or transportation. While on Fallon’s Tonight Show, the two “joked” about their time in Italy and about the local culture, mocking the Italian crew’s work ethic and razzing Italians about their [lack of] food culture while doing so.
TORONTO – Not a day goes by, in this Canadian Summer, without one or more fire-related emergencies across the country: today it was the turn of the city of Kelowna in British Columbia and a community in northern Manitoba, forced to evacuate due to the risk caused by the threatening approach of forest fires. →
TORONTO – It’s another hellish weekend in many parts of Canada, and not only because of the summer heat but also, and above all, due to the wildfires. While we are writing this article, the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre (CIFFC) website – which is updated in real time, here – reports 500 active fires, all included (from those out of control to the contained ones) and many of these have created and are creating huge problems to the population.
TORONTO – Canadian author and Giller Finalist David Bezmozgis just wrapped on his third feature film in Italy. The author/filmmaker best known for his 2014 novel “The Betrayers”, directed the film adaptation in Puglia over three weeks in June. Scenes were shot in Bari, Bitetto, Monopoli, Mola di Bari and Modugno – but doubled for foreign cities. The Betrayers is about “A disgraced Israeli politician who comes face to face with the man who denounced him to the KGB and sent him to the Gulag”.
TORONTO – While the fire emergency continues in almost all of Canada, with almost 500 wildfires still active (including all of them, from those out of control to the “observed” ones), the first class action against one of the provincial governments could soon be launched, for “negligence” in protecting the population from fires and “damages”. →
