Tracey Ullman has been creating characters ­– and a string of successful shows, including Tracey Takes On… (HBO, 1996-99) and Tracey Ullman's State of the Union (Showtime, 2008-10) – for decades. But it was only recently that she's really embraced impersonating celebrities and politicians. For the second season of Tracey Ullman's Show, which originally aired on the BBC and is now available on HBO, she's back with her impressions of a rascally Dame Judi Dench (and her frenemy Dame Maggie Smith), a sexy singing Angela Merkel, and a version of Jerry Hall that will make you squirm.

Whether a result of suicide, drunken stupidity, or sheer dumb luck, train drivers the world over kill people. You’d like to believe it’s a rarity, but the truth is most likely the opposite. What then is life like for those who’ve chosen this profession? They’re constantly on alert, blaring their horns and hitting the brakes in the hopes they can stop in time. But even the best have blood on their hands. Even the most cautious must deal with the nightmares of accidents out of their control. The weight of this reality isn’t to be dismissed. And as Milos Radovic’s Train Driver’s Diary shows, it can drive people towards insanity. A sense of humor is therefore crucial. They could voluntarily become the next fatality without one.

It’s a “I laugh so I don’t cry” type deal because the painful memories are...

Never mind the holidays; dealing with family can be stressful any time of year. Birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, or just a mandatory visit to a forgotten aunt you haven’t seen in 15 years can all hold their share of tension and misery. But at least be thankful you’re not part of the Merrye clan, the family at the center of Jack Hill’s Spider Baby (1967), a quirky yet clever examination of the prototypical horror tribe that influenced the likes of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) and The Hills Have Eyes (1977).

Filmed in 1964 but not given a limited release by American General Pictures until late ’67, it languished in general obscurity until a video restoration in the mid ‘90s shone a light on its peculiar charms. Filmed in 12 days on a budget of $55,000, Spider Baby, or The Maddest Story Ever Told (full title) is like watching The Addams Family shake the family tree and having incest,...

A sense of humor can get you through anything, including the birth of your fourth child.

Erin Dietrich, an experienced mom of three, decided to have a little fun with kid number four. Her due date happened to fall in the midst of April the Giraffe’s long and well-documented pregnancy. To pay homage to the fellow mom, Dietrich wore a giraffe mask to the hospital, going into labor while still wearing the silly accessory.

Turns out this hilarious video idea, which has reached millions on social networks, came from a place of insomnia and curiosity.

“Weeks prior I just...

Stassi Schroeder is single and ready to mingle!

This season on Vanderpump Rules, we’ll see the aftermath of the 28-year-old reality star’s split from longtime beau, radio host Patrick Meagher.

“I have quite a few breakdowns,” Stassi revealed during a recent sit-down interview with Et. Even though she says we’ll never see Patrick on screen, the fashion blogger insisted, “Because he wasn't there to film with me, I feel like I had to really express myself even more so that people could understand what I was going through.”

Stassi admitted she “totally” thought Patrick was “the one” and that the pair was headed for marriage. Still, she isn’t ruling out the possibility of reconciling someday.

“Five years from now, 10 years from now, if we came back into each other's lives [maybe]... but I'm using my head about the situation...

What makes an eligible bachelor finally decide to put a ring on it? Reddit users recently gathered to discuss the age-old question from their own unique perspectives. Below, a look at the marriage material deal-breakers and must-haves shared by both hopeful single dudes and happily married men alike. 1. "I want someone who I can argue with (and who will argue with me) without it turning into a fight. Someone who can call me on my Bs when it matters, who isn't going to flip out if I call her on hers.

[CUSTOM_PLAYER_BRIGHTCOVE "4758591795001"] A California couple who was honored for having the longest marriage in America have a short answer for how they’ve made it work. "A sense of humor is very important," Helen Goosenberg said at the ceremony on Sunday, which was hosted by Worldwide Marriage Encounter. "And just liking each other very much. I think that's the main answer for everything." Helen, 100, and her husband Maury, 102, have been married for 80 years. The faith-based marriage enrichment program chose the Goosenbergs as the winner of their "2016 Longest-Married Couple," contest, according to The San Diego Union Tribune. Their great-granddaughter entered them into the competition.

"No jokes." Last week was about the fifth time I've heard that there is a mandate at Warner Bros. regarding any of the DC superhero films in development, and it's very simple and direct and to the point. "No jokes." It would seem like a crazy rule to set for an entire series of films. How can you know what the tone is for every story you'll be telling in a series before you've even started telling it? The thing is, DC has taken a few stabs at establishing this larger universe on film, and they've gotten smacked down for everything that hasn't had Batman in it. "Man Of Steel" made money, and I'm certainly not the only person to like the film. I may be one of its more ardent defenders, but I'm not alone. I think you'd have a far harder time finding someone to defend "Green Lantern,...

Ed Sheeran is opening up about losing his virginity. In a new interview with Elle, the 23-year-old "Sing" singer reveals the first time he had sex isn't the thing he's most proud of in retrospective. When asked what felt better, selling out Madison Square Garden three times or losing his virginity, Sheeran answered, "Probably selling out Madison Square Garden three times." When asked a follow up question about losing his virginity, he added, "It's a benchmark in my life, but it wasn't the best thing I've ever done." As for qualities Sheeran looks for in a girlfriend today, he dished, "A sense of humor. I think that's key for any long-lasting...

The Other Woman, starring Cameron Diaz, Leslie Mann and Kate Upton, shows the friendship that emerges between a wife, his mistress – and his other mistress.

Carly (Diaz) finally thinks she may have found the man that she can see herself spending the rest of her life with, her boyfriend Mark (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau). Her marital plans are derailed, however, when she realizes he already has a Mrs. Upon meeting Mark’s wife Kate, the two forge a bond and ultimately discover he’s also messing around with the young Amber (Upton). Together, all three women try to ruin the serial philanderer.

The Other Woman Reviews

Critics have not been impressed by Nick Cassavetes’ (The Notebook) latest directorial effort. With a story derivative of the likes of The First Wives Club and Nine to Fine, The Other Woman fails to reimagine the female revenge narrative story in a truly new and interesting – or amusing – way,...

With their new comedy "That Awkward Moment" set to hit theaters Valentine's Day (February 14th), Zac Efron, Michael B Jordan and Miles Teller scored a featured in the February 2014 issue of Glamour magazine.

While rocking a few poses for the Jeff Lipsky-shot spread, the boys chatted about ladies and dating.

Highlights from Efron, Jordan and Teller's interview are as follows. For more, be sure to pay a visit to Glamour!

Zac

On his awkward dating tendencies:

"The awkward thing for me is when the realization happens that I actually might like this girl. Then I become awkward."

On his must-haves in relationships:

"The most important thing for me is honesty. Just be honest and up-front. I think that’s the hardest."

On his favorite girls:

"It’s impossible to say. I think every single girl has something different and special about her. You find one who clicks with your vibe.

LeAnn Rimes knows how to have a good laugh—even when it's at her own expense! On Saturday, Oct. 19, the 30-year-old country singer tweeted a cheeky picture of herself sitting atop a towing truck with the word's "Wrecker Service" plastered across the side. "Don't Open w/o A Sense Of Humor," she warned. "My dad has a towing service, family business. #havefunw/thecomments." LeAnn was still married to Dean Sheremet when she first met Eddie Cibrian in 2009 on the set of Northern Lights. Eddie was also married at the time to Brandi Glanville, the mother of his two children. LeAnn and Eddie infamously partook in an extramarital affair, leading both to divorce their original spouses...

What's the formula for a successful female superhero movie? Director Kimberly Peirce ("Boys Don't Cry," "Carrie") thinks the studios already have it figured out -- they're just a little gun shy.

While Hollywood has all but perfected the art of making huge hits starring muscled, brooding, smart-mouthed male superheroes (Iron Man, Superman, Batman, etc.), their female super-colleagues have hit a glass ceiling of sorts, resigned to co-starring roles in which they share the screen as fellow X-Men, a Fantastic, or the enemy-slash-love interest. While the trend may be frustrating to some filmmakers, it's not entirely for lack of trying.

Studios have struggled to execute a critically and commercially successful female superhero movie for years. Remember the less-than-stellar "Elektra," starring Jennifer Garner, back in 2005? And then there was Halle Berry's notorious 2004 box-office bomb "Catwoman." (Like Berry, we're trying to forget that one, too.) Both movies built on the existing mythology...

Charlie may not be who you had in mind to play Christian in the film adaptation of ‘Fifty Shades of Grey.’ He may not have even been on your radar for the role! But maybe once you get to know him, you’ll see that he’s a pretty good fit for the sexy part.

Either you know Charlie Hunnam, 33, as the motorcycle-driving badass in Sons of Anarchy, or you don’t know him at all. But we’re here to help. Though Charlie may bring good looks and a ridiculously ripped body to the role of Christian Grey in Fifty Shades of Grey, there’s much more to him than just a pretty face.

Like we said, Charlie’s best known for his role as Jax Teller in FX’s show Sons of Anarchy.

Katelyn Trott, on loan to Movies.com from Indiewire's 2013 Critic's Academy, reports on her five favorite movies from the 2013 Locarno Film Festival. She also dishes on what to expect while staying in the Italian city. For more on the Critic's Academy, see the bottom of this post. In a private interview between the Locarno Film Festival artistic director Carlo Chatrain and all nine other Critic's Academy members (myself included), the director said a film festival is like an island and the job of a film critic is that of a boat that brings something back to the mainland. From this festival I bring you, the mainland, five of my favorite films: Blue Ruin, The Keeper of Lost Causes, Short Term 12, Le Sens de L'humour, The Dirties as well as a few of my...

These days, our knowledge of celebrities too often originates with paparazzi images and snarky quotes by anonymous "insiders." After a while, it's easy to forget that stars are real people. That's why HuffPost Celebrity decided to launch its all-new #nofilter quick-fire question-and-answer series. Because how well do you know someone until they've shared their guiltiest pleasures?

Lauren Conrad broke into the business after starring on MTV's hit reality shows "Laguna Beach" and "The Hills." But since her exit from the TV world in 2009, Conrad has launched her own fashion line, written two best-selling book series, released a beauty and style website and is now preparing to unveil her new bedding collection for Kohls. She's truly created a business from the ground up.

A sense of humor is said to be one of the most attractive qualities a person can have. That's why someone like Justin Timberlake makes the rest of us look like chumps. The dude is good-looking, charming, insanely talented and incredibly funny, all evidenced by this clip of Timberlake on the Jonathan Ross Show. The musician/actor/tequila enthusiast went on it to promote his latest album, but in the process he reminded us that British talk shows are way, way better than their American counterparts by taking five shots of tequila, playing a round of miniature golf onstage, and doing the worst Michael Caine impersonation you've ever heard. [via Warming Glow] The Michael Caine bit doesn't kick in until around the 3:40 mark, when Timberlake tries to mock Ross (husband...

One quality you need while working on Two and a Half Men? A sense of humor. While at an investor conference on Tuesday, CBS president Leslie Moonves addressed the controversy surrounding Angus T. Jones publicly trashing the sitcom, calling it "filth" and saying he doesn't want to be a part of the show. Jones has since issued an apology. During his speech, Moonves referred to Jones as "that kid" and made several zingers about the controversy. Speaking at the 40th Ubs Global Media and Communications Conference, Moonves jokingly referenced Jones, calling him "that kid on Two and a Half Men who makes $300,000 per episode to talk bad about me." Jones' comments once again...

Production on the upcoming film Le sens de l'humour has been over since last month. While no trailer isn't available, we've got a visit on the set of this film. Moreover, Le sens de l'humour will be released in Quebec on July 8, 2011.

This film is the second collaboration between Michel Côté, Louis-José Houde and director Émile Gaudreault. In fact, we remember them for having worked together on the comedy De père en flic, which holds the box office record for the most profitable Canadian film in Canada (not the world, mind you) with $11 million.

The story follows two comedians who decide to work together. Needless to say that these two guys will have success. One day, they make fun of a member of the audience. However, that person turns out to be a serial killer.

Finally, the film also stars Anne Dorval, Pierrette Robitaille, Benoît Brière, Zaccari-Charles Jobin, Luc Senay,...
