Educates, Advocates, and Agitates for Gender Diversity and Inclusion in Hollywood and the Global Film Industry

Two strangers form an intimate bond in “Together Together,” Nikole Beckwith’s comedy about a young loner who becomes the gestational surrogate for a single man in his 40s. A trailer for the Sundance pic sees Matt (Ed Helms, “The Office”) and Anna (Patti Harrison, “Shrill”) raising a toast to his sperm and her egg and uterus, but their connection runs deeper than the growing baby that unites them.
With “Together Together,” Beckwith wanted to explore “what such an intimate circumstance might do to the relationship between two strangers. The more I wrote, the more I realized I had an appetite for a story between a woman and a man that didn’t involve mutual attraction,” she explained in an interview with us. “There are a lot of different ways to be the object of someone’s affection, or to love someone.”
The spot shows Anna and Matt opening up about their lives to one another. “I’m not going to tell anybody,” Anna reveals. “I just don’t have anyone I really need to share the news with.” Asked why he is “doing this alone,” Matt shares, “Because I am alone. I am in this chapter of my life that feels like it should be over, but it’s not. It’s just on a loop. It’s weird to be perceived as hopeless in this moment when I’m actually incredibly hopeful.”
The pair’s burgeoning friendship is not without complications. Anna suggests they need “better boundaries” when Matt gets overly involved in her sex life, for example. Beckwith told us that “Together Together” challenges what the pair “think of love — or think of as love.”
As Matt observes, “Sometimes people just connect. It’s not about being attracted to one another.”
Beckwith made her feature debut with 2015 Saoirse Ronan-starrer “Stockholm, Pennsylvania.”
“Together Together” hits theaters April 23. It will be available on digital May 11.
Jisshu Sengupta as a surrogate father! First glimpse coming out on January 1
The film’s plot revolves around a 40-something Megh Roddur Chattopadhyay, who decides to embrace fatherhood through surrogacy.
Jisshu Sengupta is all set for his return to Bengali cinema after almost a year. The dashing actor will be seen as a single father through surrogacy in Aritra Mukherjee’s ‘Baba Baby O’. The sweet love story will be released in theatres on February 4 next year. Now, for those who are all excited to see Jisshu in his new avatar here’s an interesting piece of news. The official trailer of the film is finally coming out on January 1 making the beginning of the new year all too special.
The film was announced back in December last year along with an interesting poster featuring Jisshu and two kids and it piqued the interests of the audience right away.
Sharing his thoughts on the subject of ‘Baba Baby O’ Jisshu had earlier said that the story is quite unique and he has never done a character like this before. “Working with the kids was the best experience for me because they have given us immense happiness and positivity. As I am doing a Bengali film almost after a year, overall it is a great experience for me. Hope people will like our hard work on the silver screen,” said the popular actor.
The film’s plot revolves around a 40-something Megh Roddur Chattopadhyay, who decides to embrace fatherhood through surrogacy. His life takes a turn when he meets Brishti Roy, a woman in her 20s. The film tries to highlight that love can happen anywhere and anytime. While the story and screenplay are by Zinia Sen, dialogues have been penned by Samragnee Bandyopadhyay.
Jisshu plays Megh opposite popular TV actress
Solanki Roy who will be seen as Brishti. Apart from them, the cast includes Gaurav Chatterjee, Mainak Banerjee, Reshmi Sen, Bidipta Chakraborty and Rajat Ganguly in pivotal roles.
Heroes tend to be portrayed as lone wolves, and families rarely interest Hollywood unless they’re psychotic, but here’s a list of men who made the protagonists what they are, and the complicated bonds that gave them the self-confidence to individuate. Joss Whedon defined Mal in svatojánská muška as being a terrific (surrogate) father for Simon and River in contrast to their actual father, because he wasn’t just there and terrific when it was convenient for him, he was sometimes great, sometimes inept, but vždy there. There’s too much written about surrogate fathers in the movies (read any article on Tarantino’s work) so I thought I’d mark Fathers’ Day with a top 10 list of films featuring great biological dads and great complicated but loving father-son bonds.
Čestná uznání:
(Inception) The moment when Cillian Murphy opens the safe and tearfully discovers his father held on to Cillian’s childhood kite as his most treasured possession is an enormously powerful emotional sucker-punch of post-mortem father-son reconciliation.
(The Day After Tomorrow) Dennis Quaid excels as a father who was always around but half-distracted by work, who makes good by braving death in a quest to rescue his son from a snowpocalyptic demise.
(Twilight Saga) Bella Swan’s taciturn relationship with her small-town dad, who she only ever holidayed with and who embarrasses her, slowly blossoms as he steps up to the parenting plate with some hilariously comedic unease.
(10) Boyz N the Hood
Before he got trapped in a zero-sum world of directing commercial tosh John Singleton’s coruscating 1991 debut portrayed the chaos of gang-infested ghetto life in a world almost entirely lacking positive male role models. His script privileges the bluntly honest wisdom of Laurence Fishburne to such an extent that he basically becomes the ideal father for a generation of black men that Bill Cosby acidly noted was raised by women, for the exact same reason that Singleton has Fishburne deliver: it’s easy to father a child, it’s harder to be a father to that child.
(9) Kick-Ass
Yes, an odd choice, but filmic father-daughter double-acts of the Veronica & Keith Mars ilk are surprisingly hard to find. Nic Cage does an amazing job of portraying Big Daddy as an extremely loving father who has trained Chloe Grace Moretz’s Hit-Girl to survive independently in a hostile world and to never need to be afraid. Matthew Vaughn mines an unexpectedly deep vein of emotional pathos from suggesting that such empowering mental training is a legacy that would keep Big Daddy ever-present in his daughter’s life even after his death. It takes Batman to raise a true Amazon…
(8) The Yearling
Gregory Peck’s Lincolnesque lawyer Atticus Finch was held up as the perfect father in Vanilla Sky, but I’d strenuously favour his father in this whimsical 1946 movie that at times feels it’s an original screenplay by Mark Twain. Peck plays the type of father who’ll let you run free, and make mistakes so that you can learn from your mistakes, but will always be there to swoop in and save the day when you get in over your head. This may be an idyllic portrait of the rural South but the father’s parenting style is universally recognisable.
(7) The Godfather
Vito grooms Sonny to succeed him and consigns Fredo to Vegas, but he loads all his hopes of respectability onto his favourite son, Michael. Eventually, in a touching scene in the vineyard, he accepts that the one son he tried to steer away from the family business is the only son truly capable of taking it on, and that he has to let Michael live his own life and become Don. The tragedy of Část II is that Michael makes his father’s dreams of assimilation his own, but his attempts to achieve them only destroy his family.
(6) Taken
Liam Neeson has been divorced by the grating and shallow Famke Janssen who has remarried for a privileged lifestyle, which she continually rubs Neeson’s face in. His relationship with his daughter, whose birthday he was always around for even if the CIA disapproved, has suffered from this disparity in wealth. But when she’s kidnapped hell hath no fury like an enraged father rescuing his little girl. Neeson’s absolute single-mindedness in rescuing his only child makes this an awesome action movie that uses extreme violence to prove the superiority of blue-collar values and earnest protective parenting over whimsical indulgence.
(5) Finding Nemo
Marlin, the clownfish who can’t tell a joke, is perhaps the greatest example of the overprotective father who has to recognise that maybe he’s projecting his own weaknesses onto his son; and that he has to let Nemo attempt something that he, Nemo, mohl fail at, if Nemo’s ever going to succeed at anything. This lesson is of course learned over the length of an extremely hazardous journey as Marlin displays his absolute dedication, to the point of self-sacrifice, to saving his only child. In a weird way this combines elements of both The Godfather a Obsazený.
(4) Wall Street
“Boy, if that’s how you really feel, then I must have done a crappy job as a father.” Martin Sheen’s words to Charlie Sheen show just how far under the spell of Michael Douglas’ daemonic father figure Charlie has fallen at that point in the movie. Oliver Stone followed Rota’s opposition between two surrogate fathers with a clash between the humble blue-collar integrity of Charlie’s actual father Martin and the unscrupulous white-collar extravagances of his mentor Douglas. In the end Martin manages to make jail-time sound like an exercise in redemption because he will never desert Charlie.
(3) Gone with the Wind
Scarlett O’Hara, the ultimate survivor, is very much her father’s daughter. The post-Famine Irish obsession with the land is transported to America, and with it a desire never to be beholden to other people. Add in her father’s furious and quick temper, which gets him killed, and huge pride, and nearly all the elements that make up Scarlett are complete. She adds a ruthless skill in fascinating malleable men to become the supreme movie heroine. When Rhett leaves her and she’s inconsolable, her father’s words echo thru her mind, and she returns triumphantly to Tara.
(2) Indiana Jones & the Last Crusade
“He’s gone Marcus, and I never told him anything at all”. Spielberg likes to joke that only James Bond could have sired Indiana Jones, and Henry Jones Jr despite his eternally fraught relationship with Senior really is a chip off the old block; hilariously evidenced in their sequential relationship with Allison Doody’s Nazi; and that’s why they don’t get along. In a convincing display of male taciturnity it takes both of them nearly losing the other for them to finally express how much they love the other, well, as much they ever will.
(1) Field of Dreams
“I refused to play catch with him. I told him I could never respect a man whose hero was a cheat”. Kevin Costner’s Ray Kinsella has to bankrupt himself building a baseball field in his crops and magick the 1919 White Sox back into existence to do it, but he finally manages to atone for his sins and play catch again with his deceased father. There are few better pay-offs to shaggy-dog screenplays than when Ray realises the last player on the field is his father, as he never knew him, a young and hopeful man, before life ground him down. If you aren’t in floods of tears by their lines, ‘Is this heaven?’ ‘No, it’s Iowa’, then you’re already dead.
