![]() ![]() But even on the crumbling walls there were the memories of rage left by the Mexican Revolution of 1910. They crept in from the property lines, inching forward to retake the land. This broken-down old property in the mountains of Chiapas was being swallowed by the surrounding tropical forests of the area. Years ago, I was around ten years old on a trip to Chiapas in the south of Mexico, to visit a banged up old hacienda where my father had been born. Let me first frame a little about my personal journey. In this research the truth came far more horrifying than I could ever imagine… That is the origin for the big idea behind Piñata. I literally peeled things about its history of where the piñata tradition comes from and how the rituals became what they are today. How can this object of pure adrenaline and joy have such a dark history? ![]() To have that rush of joy in that moment that the candy cascades and everyone jumps to grab it like a bizarre wrestling match. Piñatas can be seen as a symbol of hiding joy in plain sight. As kids we sang the piñata song and banged those colorful objects in anger and violence to access that joy. ![]() ![]() ![]() Can Sunshine face the call of duty - and find the kidnapper who's terrorizing her beloved hometown - without falling head over high heels in love.

An immersive production experience, Anderson visited the town where Dahl lived until his death, expanding his vision for the film to focus on the author as well as the book’s characters – Mr Fox’s wife is named Felicity in the film, the same as Dahl’s second wife, whereas in the novel she is nameless. Of course, this isn’t Anderson’s first foray into Dahl’s world, having directed the stop-motion cinematic adaptation of Fantastic Mr Fox in 2009. Known for his love of anthological storytelling (think: The Royal Tenenbaums), an all-encompassing approach covering every story wouldn’t be abnormal for the director. In the novel, the story follows Sugar, a magical gambler, who has his eyes sewn shut yet alleges he has the power to see through cards. The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar takes its name from one of the short stories within it and it is not yet known if the film will be a holistic adaptation of the book or only the titular. ![]() Details surrounding the composition of the new film are still to be confirmed, with Benedict Cumberbatch the only person cast in the project thus far. ![]() ![]() What makes Channel Zero so significant is that it is unapologetically experimental Wood is far more interested in trying out a variety of visual techniques than in creating something that is slick and polished. Included is the prequel story, “Jenny 1.0” (drawn by Cloonan), as well as a host of additional material, including early drawings and insights on both process and story by Wood. ![]() Jennie 2.5’s mission is to wake up a population that has grown tired of fighting and largely given in. Fanatical special interest groups have forced the government to pass the Clean Act, in which free speech is suppressed. Set in New York in the not-so-distant-future, it tells the story of Jenny 2.5, a tattooed info-terrorist who becomes a media icon when she begins interrupting television broadcasts to spread her message. The original 1997 series was the brainchild of Wood (DMZ, Demo) who began working on it while an art student. If it’s true that some stories become less relevant with age, the opposite applies to Channel Zero. ![]() ![]() ![]() AND IN WHICH THE NARRATIVE REVERTS TO THE MERRY OLD GENTLEMAN AND HIS YOUTHFUL FRIENDS.

Hannah wondered what it would be like to indulge in such wickedness, feeling a man's mouth against her lips, his hands touching her the way a lover would. More than a few ladies had disappeared into the garden with a companion, only to return with twigs in their hair and swollen lips. It was nearing midnight, the hour of secret liaisons. He looked as though he wanted to kiss every inch of her, and the thought made her body tremble. The unexpected kiss had made her skin flush, awakening the strange desire to move closer to him. He'd brushed his lips upon the back of her hand when her brother had introduced them. Nor the way he'd stared at her like a delectable sweet he wanted but couldn't have. Though she'd only met him a few weeks ago, she hadn't forgotten his intensity. Instead, she was all too aware of Lieutenant Thorpe's gaze and the forbidden nature of his thoughts. ![]() Lady Hannah Chesterfield smiled at one of the ballroom guests, but she hadn't heard a word the woman had said.
