'Oscars museum' opening this year to feature Kirk Douglas tributes
LOS ANGELS — Los Angeles' long-awaited museum dedicated to the magic of movies will open this year and feature tributes to the late Kirk Douglas.The idea for an Academy Museum of Motion Pictures was first floated nearly a century ago, and its current futuristic incarnation has been beset by delays.On the eve of the Academy's flagship event — the Oscars — a nearly completed site was opened to journalists on Friday, showcasing a gleaming sphere made of glass, steel and concrete containing a state-of-the-art 1,000-seat theater.The orb-like structure — designed by Renzo Piano "as if it were floating" to symbolize "the fantasy and magic of the movies" — is connected by sky bridges to a converted department store housing the main galleries.Among the 13...

Stuntmen eye Oscar as Pitt shines light on dangerous trade
LOS ANGELES — For Hollywood's stuntmen, the sight of one of their own receiving an Oscar at this Sunday's ceremony would be a cause for celebration.Stunt performers have been campaigning for their own Academy Award for years, arguing their input equals that of the sound mixers, makeup artists and visual effects gurus already honored.But the "stuntman" favored to win this Sunday is Brad Pitt, nominated as best supporting actor for playing one in "Once Upon A Time... in Hollywood."For Los Angeles-based stunt performer and trainer Daniel Locicero, a win for Pitt would bring "good exposure" for his profession, but falls short of the real deal."I'm sure he had a double in the film!" joked Locicero, whose credits include 2017 Oscar-winning...

Weinstein expert questions memory as testimony nears end
NEW YORK — A psychologist called by Harvey Weinstein's defense team said memories of an incident can become "contaminated" over time by new information, as testimony in his rape trial entered its closing stages on Friday.Elizabeth Loftus, a University of California, Irvine professor, said leading questioning about an event sometimes causes a "misinformation effect," where false details are incorporated into someone's memory."If you are urged to remember more, in trying to produce more to satisfy that situation, you may produce something like a guess and then it starts to feel like a memory," she testified.Since testimony began on Jan. 22, six women have taken the stand to say they were sexually assaulted by Weinstein.All of the allegations against...

Trial hears accuser tried to make Weinstein 'pseudo-father'
NEW YORK — Harvey Weinstein's defense team presented new messages on Monday that it says prove the disgraced movie mogul was in a consensual relationship with one of the main accusers in his rape trial.Lead defense attorney Donna Rotunno subjected ex-actress Jessica Mann, who says Weinstein raped her in March 2013, to brutal cross-examination that appeared to severely weaken her earlier testimony."Thank you for your unfailing support and kindness. It's helped me believing in myself," Mann wrote in an email to Weinstein six months after she alleges he sexually assaulted her."Nobody understands me quite like you," she wrote in another message.In a third, written in 2014, she referred to Weinstein's smile and "beautiful eyes," the New York state...

Alyona Alyona, the plus-sized queen of Ukrainian rap
GRONINGEN, Netherlands — Alyona Alyona is turning the macho rules of rap on their head.For a start, the former kindergarten teacher tries never to swear in her songs.She proudly raps in the Ukrainian she grew up speaking in her rustic home village, rather than in English or Russian.And she has become something of a plus-size icon for letting it all hang out in a silver swimming costume in the video for her first big hit, "Ribki" ("Fish").Flanked by two scantily-clad, pencil-thin women of the type that usually people rap videos, the song is a clear metaphor for young women who feel out of place.The rapper, whose real name is Alyona Savranenko, has put body positivity, bullying and female empowerment in songs that defy the stereotype of what hip-hop should be.The hugely...
