Untold Stories From the Set of 'Fifty Shades of Grey'
"Out of everyone that could have walked in, it had to be him." I want to say it was four years ago in the middle of November. I remember that morning being one of the coldest we had yet. I had to stand on the side of the road for three hours before the sun came up. By the time it actually rose, I couldn’t feel my toes. Half frozen and starving, our shoot day had barely even begun. Great. We were shooting at a restaurant in Stanley Park, Vancouver B.C. I believe it was the scene where Dakota Johnson or Anastasia Steele was having a lovely brunch with her mother, telling her about her new love interest.

Taking a Look at Morgan Freeman's Best Roles as He Defies His Age and Continues to Deliver Marvelous Performances
One can often tell that an actor is aging by measuring the dip in their performances, but the same cannot be said for Morgan Freeman. Aged 80 and active since 1964, he is a perfectionist. He is recognized by his distinctive voice, which frequently makes him a preferable choice for narration. He is set to receive the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award in 2018 after being nominated for the fifth time.

Was Seth MacFarlane Profiting From Other People's Pain?
The recent sexual harassment scandals that have plagued Hollywood have come not so much as a shock, but as a disappointment to many. It all began with the revelations about Harvey Weinstein, as a growing list of women came forward to tell their stories of the abuses they had suffered at his hands. Then came Star Trek: Discovery actor, Anthony Rapp, who revealed that Kevin Spacey had sexually harassed him when he was 14 years-old at a party. Spacey released a bizarre apology that ultimately ended up doing more harm than good to the actor's already shattered reputation, which sought to distract attention away from the story of his victim, and made it about his own sexuality. Now most recently come the stories about Director Brett Ratner, accused by a string of women of varying degrees of sexual harassment. Ratner denies the allegations outright, but all these people have one thing in common: their sexually predatory nature was joked about in different forms many years before the revelations have become public.

Why is Kevin Spacey More Condemned Than Others?
I am pissed at Kevin Spacey. It's true that I've never been a massive fan of his, though American Beauty stands up to the test of time. House of Cards helped launch Netflix into the original programming arena and earned him multiple Emmy nominations. Even the allegations that Anthony Rapp leveled at Spacey can take that away. That story that Rapp told about Spacey coming on to him is why I have such vehement anger at the Oscar winner. But a friend asked me a question that needs to be examined: Why is Kevin Spacey getting the wrong end of publicity surrounding sexual abuse and sexual harassment that has engulfed Hollywood over the last month?
