The Place Beyond the Pines (2012)
Derek Cianfrance makes movies for the sad boys. His films typically revolve around the complicated relationships we share with our significant others and family. Cianfrance recruited Ryan Gosling and Bradley Cooper to play his brooding men in The Place Beyond the Pines. In upstate New York, Luke (Gosling) is a stunt driver turned bank robber who hopes to provide a life for his estranged son.
Avery (Cooper) is a rookie police officer trying to make a name for himself. A chance meeting between Luke and Avery changes the trajectory of their lives, and the decisions made that day will affect each of their sons. Be prepared to call your parents after watching this moving epic.
Stream The Place Beyond the Pines on Netflix.
The Town (2010)
It's fitting that Ben Affleck, one of Boston's most recognizable faces, played an integral part in two of the city's pantheon movies: Good Will Hunting and The Town. Affleck directed the latter in the middle of his career comeback. In Charlestown, Boston, Doug MacRay (Ben Affleck) and his friends — Jem Coughlin (Jeremy Renner), Albert 'Gloansy' MacGloan (Slaine), and Desmond 'Dez' Elden (Owen Burke) — rob banks in the surrounding area for a local gangster. During one of the holdups, the group takes a hostage, Claire Keesey (Rebecca Hall), but lets her go unharmed.
Later on, Doug — who wore a mask during the robbery to protect his identity — meets with Claire to learn what she knows about the robbers. He ends up falling in love with her and tries to escape his criminal past. Easier said than done, especially when Doug's employer threatens to hurt Claire.

Happy Gilmore (1996)
This month marks the arrival of Happy Gilmore 2, the highly anticipated sequel featuring Sandler's rambunctious hockey player who surprisingly became a professional golfer. Unfortunately, Happy Gilmore is leaving the service at the end of the month, right as the sequel premieres. Start your rewatches now before it's too late.
Happy Gilmore (Sandler) dreams of becoming a successful hockey player. However, Happy doesn't possess the skills to thrive on the ice, forcing him to find a new career path. When his grandmother's house faces foreclosure, Happy capitalizes on his gift — driving a golf ball over 400 yards — by attempting to make it on the PGA Tour. While Happy's skills have what it takes to hang, his temper and unorthodox style might get him kicked off before he ever plays.

Dunkirk (2017)
Does Christopher Nolan make Oppenheimer without the success of Dunkirk? It's hard to tell. However, Dunkirk clearly scratched Nolan's World War II itch, one that would lead to his Oscar-winning epic in 2023. Based on the famous operation in WWII, Dunkirk follows a group of Allied forces attempting to escape the beaches of Dunkirk.
Using a nonlinear narrative, Nolan depicts the evacuation on three battlefronts: air, land, and sea. The soldiers race towards freedom across the English Channel as the movie unfolds with a sense of urgency. With a rapid 106-minute runtime, Dunkirk proves Nolan has the goods to deliver an epic spectacle that's deeply moving and thrilling.
Stream Dunkirk on Netflix.
Dawn of the Dead (2004)
The last two directors to helm live-action Superman movies are James Gunn and Zack Snyder. Back in 2004, the two filmmakers collaborated on the remake of Dawn of the Dead, with Gunn penning the script and Snyder directing. In the Milwaukee area, a zombie outbreak decimates the population. Ana (Sarah Polley) and a group of survivors manage to find shelter in a local mall.
As the group learns more about the zombies' habits, they determine that the only way to ensure survival is to escape the city on a boat. With Gunn's witty humor and Snyder's fast-paced action, Dawn of the Dead is a remake that stands out and justifies its existence. It also makes you wonder what would have happened to Snyder's DC Extended Universe if Gunn wrote the scripts.

Liz Lee Says She's 'Squashed Beef' with Her Former 'My Life as Liz' Rival as She Plans a 'Nerd Herd' Reunion
'My Life as Liz' aired in 2010 and 2011 Liz Lee is getting some closure on a confusing period in her life. The artist, 34, who was at the center of the 2010 MTV series My Life as Liz, has recently talked about her brief time in reality TV on TikTok. In doing so, she's reconnected with some of her other classmates who appeared on the show, revealing she's even "squashed beef" with formal rival Cori Cooper. "I cannot relay to you guys how healing this has been. Without all of this renewed interest, I wouldn't have found her TikTok, where she started making TikToks about her experience. And it seems pretty awful, what she went through. I just felt so much empathy for her because we were both collateral damage from this machine." After Lee "slid into her DMs," she shared the two had "a really good talk" and encouraged fans to listen to her side of things. 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. On Cooper's TikTok, she opened up about how, much like Lee didn't know she'd be at the center of the show, Cooper didn't know she'd be portrayed as a "villain." "It was very staged. It's not necessarily, it wasn't scripted, but I was told, 'Hey, say this,' 'Hey, do that,' 'Hey, be meaner.' It was just a lot of weird situations to be put in as a child by an adult," she shared. "Yes, I was 18. I signed my own contract. I didn't have to have my parents' permission. I have a lot of people that were, 'I can't believe your parents let you act that way and let you do that.' They didn't let me act any certain way, or do any certain thing. I was told that this was a show about high school life and what it's like to be in high school. And it was not." Cooper said that she didn't see the show until the rest of the world did, and she was "just as shocked" by how she was presented, adding "a lot of the stuff I filmed was never used." When commenters accused her of not taking accountability for her behavior, Cooper replied, "I actually never said that I didn't own it. I never said that I wasn't a bully. I just said that it wasn't... the show was very one-sided. There was stuff that went on, on both parties. I received a lot of backlash and again, I was never told, 'Hey, you're going to go be a bully,' or 'You're going to be made out to be the bad guy.' " Cooper says that she has "grown" from the experience, adding that at 34, she feels she doesn't deserve some of the backlash she gets. It appears that Lee's friends have also been thinking about the show since her TikToks have gone viral. In a video on July 22, Lee revealed that as part of her plan to watch and react to the series live on Twitch, members of "the nerd herd" would be joining her in an upcoming stream. "I reached out to Sully, Troy, Zona, Miles... those who were once affectionately referred to as 'the nerd herd,' the proud, the few. They are going to join me for live commentary on My Life is Liz on Twitch." The pseudo-cast reunion is likely on the slate for next week. In the meantime, Lee is working on getting Taylor Terry to also join in. "Even Cori said she'd be down, so stay tuned, " she concluded. Read the original article on People

What happened to Amy Bradley? Netflix documentary raises questions that internet sleuths are scrambling to answer.
'Amy Bradley is Missing' is one of the most-watched documentaries on Netflix right now. But the case is not new to true crime fans. In the opening scene of the Netflix documentary, Amy Bradley is Missing, several interviewees share their suspicions about what happened to the 23-year-old woman who went missing while traveling with her family on a Royal Caribbean cruise ship in 1998. 'Somebody killed her,' one person suggests. Another says, 'I think she jumped or fell off,' while a third posits, 'I think she got taken as a sex slave. But I don't know that.' Bradley's unsolved disappearance has long been the subject of such theories. At around 3:40 a.m. on March 24, 1998, Bradley returned to her family's cruise cabin after dancing in the ship's club space. Her dad, Ron, said he woke up briefly around 5:30 a.m. and saw her out on the deck, but when he woke up again at 6 a.m., she was gone. A four-day search of the ship and the surrounding waters turned up no trace of Bradley. The three-part Netflix series, which came out on July 16, doesn't have concrete answers, but it does explore several theories that police pursued as well as others that true crime fans and internet sleuths have clung to about what happened that morning. Theories presented in the docuseries One of the first theories police investigated was that Bradley had either fallen overboard or taken her own life by jumping off the deck. But Bradley's family has never supported either theory, maintaining instead that they believe she is still alive. But Victor McCollum, an FBI agent who was on the case, says in the documentary that right after Bradley went missing, there was 'no direct evidence she jumped.' Other authorities who were interviewed added that, because of the ship's location and other conditions in the water surrounding it in the early morning hours of March 24, if Bradley had jumped, they would've found something. 'Because of the position of the boat, wind force, sea current, the wave height — the body would have washed up,' Henry Vrutaal, a Curaçao coast guard officer, says in the documentary. 'But she was nowhere to be found. Not even a piece of clothing, nothing.' Another theory emerged when Chris Fenwick, a video editor who was on the ship, found the last known footage of Bradley, which shows her dancing with one of the cruise ship's band members, Alister Douglas, commonly referred to by his nickname 'Yellow.' Another passenger, Lori Thompson, said she and a friend were sitting on the deck 'sometime between 5 a.m. and 6 a.m.' on March 24 when they saw Bradley and Douglas in a glass elevator together. Thompson said that about 15 minutes later, the friends saw Douglas walk across the deck alone. 'I kinda got a bad vibe,' Thompson says in the series. 'Immediately, I thought, 'Where's Amy?'' FBI agents say that Douglas was interviewed, and he had 'vehemently denied' walking around with Bradley in the early morning hours on the ship. He passed a polygraph test, and no charges were ever filed against him. Douglas, who was not interviewed for the Netflix series, spoke about the case in an interview with the 'True Crime This Week' podcast in October 2024. 'About five minutes to 1 a.m., I said [to Bradley], 'Look, I have to go, I've got to get out of [the] passenger area.' And I left,' Douglas said on the podcast. 'That was my last conversation, last time I saw her.' In the aftermath of her disappearance, some people have claimed that they've seen Bradley in Curaçao, a Dutch Caribbean island where the cruise ship was about to dock when she went missing, fueling theories that she was kidnapped or sold into sex trafficking. At the end of the first episode, David Carmichael, a Canadian scuba diver, says that he saw Bradley with two men on Curaçao in August 1998, but he did not know she was a missing person at the time. However, authorities have not confirmed any reported Bradley sightings since her disappearance. The FBI has also stated that there is no evidence that Bradley was kidnapped by someone who was on board the cruise ship, and they have not arrested or detained any of the passengers in relation to her case. Internet sleuths have been trying to solve this case for years The Netflix documentary may be bringing Bradley's case to a new audience, but internet sleuths, who are people who use online resources to investigate mysteries and crimes, have been digging into her disappearance for years. These amateur investigators tend to meet in designated Reddit threads, Facebook groups and other online forums. While internet sleuths have had some success (online sleuths were credited with helping identify people who were involved in the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021), there are many cases where they made inaccurate and potentially harmful accusations. The most popular theories within these communities align with what is discussed in the Netflix series: that Bradley either fell overboard or was kidnapped and could still be alive. So far, though, neither internet sleuths nor professional investigators have been able to figure out what happened to Bradley. Solve the daily Crossword
