Oscar-nominated actress Teri Garr died at 79 on Tuesday. Her publicist, Heidi Schaeffer, shared that Garr died “surrounded by family and friends.” Garr was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (Ms) over two decades ago.

In a screen career that spanned over 40 years, Garr is known for her role as Sandy in the romantic comedy Tootsie, and Inga in 1974’s film Young Frankenstein.

Garr was born on December 11, 1944, in Ohio. Her family shortly moved to Los Angeles. Garr attended Cal State Northbridge and moved to New York City to study acting. Initially a go-go and ballet dancer, she shimmies in the background of multiple Elvis Presley features and the filmed concert The T.A.M.I. Show. Her first official speaking role was in Jack Nicholson’s Head, a friend she connected with in acting class. She would go on to become a regular guest on The Sonny and Cher Show and work with many famous...

Kavin Raj’s Star and Santhanam’s Inga Naan Thaan Kingu are locked in a box office battle. While Star has recovered its budget, its collections are dipping. Inga Naan Thaan Kingu shows promise but needs to maintain momentum. Read on!

On its 12th day (2nd Tuesday), the film collected a mere 0.31 crore, bringing its net India total to 17.63 crore.

Meanwhile, Santhanam’s comedy flick Inga Naan Thaan Kingu entered the arena on May 17th, offering a lighter alternative to Star’s more serious tone. Early estimates suggest the film collected...

It all started with Exposed. I’m not sure what brought this 1971 Swedish sexploitation film to the suggestion portion of my Netflix account (presumably the roster of Jess Franco films recently added), but after reading the description, I figured it was worth a shot: “A pretty young teen finds her innocence lost when an unguarded night of revelry yields shameful secrets, and a stack of nude pictures that could ruin her life. But to get her hands on the negatives, she’ll have to expose herself even further.” That is indeed the basic plot of the film, which plays out exactly as one would expect for such fare. But what was unexpected while watching Exposed (also known as the much less enticing Diary of a Rape), was the 21-year-old star of the film. Her name is Christina Lindberg.
