Most of the cast of Saturday Night Live took part in a takedown of Southwest, with Jake Gyllenhaal playing a frenzied customer who just wanted to change his flight.

Gyllenhaal — who was mistakenly referred to as Vaginal Cream — had to navigate through a series of operators who first assumed he just had missing luggage. As soon as they learned he switch flights, he was sent to someone who was even less helpful.

As he waited on the phone, recordings touted everything that’s wrong with Southwest. “Southwest doesn’t design seats. It’s just another way we’re making flying feel like riding a city bus” and “want more leg room and premium food and drink services? Fly a different airline.”

On Saturday, May 27th at 3:45pm, the feature film Claudia directed by Edward Westrop will have its world premiere at the Romford Film Festival.

Claudia is a black comedy about a misogynistic, sixty-something year old man named Raymond who forms an emotional relationship with a life-sized, female mannequin. This film aims to put a darkly comedic twist on the topic of domestic abuse when Raymond realises that the mannequin, who he names Claudia, is the perfect vessel for his misogynistic, backwards relationship values.

Director of Claudia, Edward Westrop, is a self-taught filmmaker whose western themed, stop frame animation ‘Cloaked Rider’ was shown at the Cannes Film Festival in 2015. Claudia is Westrop’s first feature film and has already been selected by the ‘Out of the Can International Film Festival’ and the ‘London International Film Festival’, gaining both honourable mention and finalist laurels. Alongside directing/self producing his short films,...

The American Hustle cast includes some of the best actors of the 2010s with all its lead stars having either won an Oscar or secured multiple nominations. Directed by David O Russell, American Hustle is inspired by the FBI Abscam scandal of the 1970s and the 1980s. The narrative begins with the exploits of two con artists, who are eventually hired by the FBI to bring down several corrupt politicians through elaborate sting operations. Garnering ten nominations at the 2014 Oscars, Russell relied on many frequent collaborators like Jennifer Lawrence, Christian Bale and Bradley Cooper to helm his period piece.

Even though American Hustle dramatizes the true events, the lead actors are not playing real-like figures (at least by name). The original draft, an unproduced screenplay by Eric Warren Singer, retained the actual names of the people involved in the Abscam scandal. But in his rewrites, Russell replaced the real figures with their caricatures.

On 27th February 2023, Nucleus Films will release the shocking 1970s horror film Dark Places on Blu-ray.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge‘s global takeover continued in earnest late Saturday, with the Brit auteur’s tragicomic Amazon series Fleabag dominating the 2019 Television Critics Association Awards with three trophies, including best comedy series, best comedic performer (for Waller-Bridge) and the coveted Program of the Year. Waller-Bridge, who in addition to being Fleabag‘s titular star also is the show’s creator/writer/EP, was on hand for the non-televised ceremony, which was hosted by Desus & Mero. (Could a Fleabag Emmy sweep be next?)

Waller-Bridge has previously stated that Fleabag‘s now-TCA award winning second season would serve as the series’ swan song.
