ATLANTA, GA, UNITED STATES, May 30, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- This past Memorial Day weekend, Respected Roots proudly participated in the iconic Atlanta Jazz Festival, one of the city's most vibrant celebrations of music, culture, and community. As soulful jazz filled Piedmont Park, our team was thrilled to connect with festivalgoers and share the essence of the Respected Roots brand.
From loyal supporters to first-time customers, the atmosphere at our vendor booth was one of joy, unity, and curiosity. Guests engaged with our all-natural grooming and skincare products, asked questions, shared stories, and left with more than just a purchase—they left with a deeper understanding of who we are and what we represent.

Emma Mackey and Jamie Lee Curtis Scream It Out in James L. Brooks' 'Ella McCay' Trailer
'Ella McCay,' the first new movie from writer-director James L. Brooks since 2010, is in theaters Dec. 12NEED TO KNOW Ella McCay, which stars Sex Education's Emma Mackey, follows a young woman who becomes a governor Jamie Lee Curtis, Albert Brooks, Woody Harrelson, Ayo Edebiri and Jack Lowden also star in the new movie from three-time Oscar-winning filmmaker James L. Brooks Watch the new trailer for Ella McCay, in theaters Dec. 12Emma Mackey is taking on the system in filmmaker James L. Brooks' new movie! On Monday, Aug. 4, 20th Century Studios released the trailer for Ella McCay, a dramedy from three-time Academy Award winner Brooks, 85, which follows the Sex Education star, 29, as a young woman who becomes a state governor after her boss (Albert Brooks) is promoted to a federal-level cabinet position. A newly released trailer shows Ella becoming governor and straddling new responsibilities with drama involving her family, including her estranged father (Woody Harrelson), brother (Spike Fearn) and aunt (Jamie Lee Curtis). The "comedy about the people you love and how to survive them," per a synopsis from 20th Century Studios, also features Jack Lowden, Rebecca Hall, Ayo Edebiri, Kumail Nanjiani and Julie Kavner. "You are truly blessed if you have never experienced other people's normal, happy families as a small stab in the heart," quips Kavner in the trailer, which starts with her introducing herself as the story's narrator. "You can use a scream," Curtis' character tells Mackey, encouraging her to let out her feelings. "No, I might not be able to stop," responds her niece. But later in the trailer, they surprise each other by screaming it out together. Ella McCay is notably Brooks' first movie as a director since 2010's How Do You Know. The Hollywood legend won three Oscars in 1984 for Terms of Endearment - Best Picture, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay. The film is also something of a return to the big screen for actor Albert Brooks (no relation), 78, whose previous acting credit is 2017's I Love You, Daddy. James also directed Albert in Broadcast News. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. As James told The Hollywood Reporter in an April interview, the movie is set in 2008 and is "about how to not make government service and political office something any sane person would flee from." "In a movie like this, you've got to figure out what the heroism is, and chase that," the director said at that time. "What is it really that makes you a fine person? Is it a character that's worth supporting for an entire movie? That's what you aim for." Ella McCay is in theaters on Dec. 12. Read the original article on People

San Francisco's last video rental store tucked away in Noe Valley neighborhood
Once a staple of neighborhoods everywhere, video stores all but vanished in the age of streaming. But tucked between a Supercuts and a nail salon in San Francisco's Noe Valley is a surprising survivor: a small, independently owned video shop where movies are still picked by hand and watched on disc. Welcome to Video Wave, it's believed to be the last remaining video rental store in San Francisco. It has rows and rows of DVDs and a loyal crowd keeping an old ritual alive. Owner Colin Hutton said he never thought he'd be the last one standing. "There's been many, many moments when I thought I wouldn't survive it," he said. The trouble began around 2008, when streaming services took off and video stores across the country began to fade to black. But then, something unexpected happened: Customers started to come back, some drawn by nostalgia, others by curiosity. For 23-year-old Kailxn Xephyr, it was a refreshing experience. "When it comes to things that are streaming on your phone, it feels like everything's demanding your attention right away, and these other things are like a step removed from that," Xephyr said. Believe it or not, DVDs are having a moment. Not quite a blockbuster comeback, more of a cult-classic rewind. While overall DVD sales dropped more than 23% last year, 4K editions jumped 10 percent, and collector versions climbed 25 percent, according to the Digital Entertainment Group. "There's been a real resurgence in tangible media," said Lucas Hildebrand, chair of Film and Media Studies at UC Irvine. Hildebrand said for Gen Z, part of the appeal isn't just the films. It's the boxes, the artwork, even the act of browsing. "There's also hunger for people who grew up with social media, who grew up with the Internet, to actually have in person interactions," he said. Ironically, the future of the store may depend on the very thing that nearly wiped it out: a subscription model. Hutton said he had 556 subscribers, just enough to keep Video Wave from avoiding the final cut. "With my business model being subscription, if I had 150 more subscribers, that would be the difference between not making it and making it," Hutton said.
