Album “Seeds”

TV on the Radio

Having transplanted to the West Coast, the (former) New York indie band, TV on the Radio is back with a fifth album, “Seeds” . The followup to 2011’s “Nine Types of Light” marks the first LP release since the passing of former bassist, Gerard Smith, in 2011. “Seeds” is characterized as a celebration by the band. Filled with upbeat sounds and optimistic lyrics, the album is a beautiful break from the band’s usual experimental approach to music, that is just as great.

“Seeds” is set to release November 18th via Harvest Records

Foxcatcher

Film by Bennett Miller

“Foxcatcher” is the true story of eccentric heir John du Pont (Steve Carell) and Olympic-gold winning wrestler, Mark Schultz (Channing Tatum). Du Pont invites Mark to train for the 1998 Seoul Olympics at his palatial estate, Foxcatcher Farm, where Mark and his elder brother (Mark Ruffalo) enter into a co-dependent and psychologically warped game of wills with the millionaire mentor.

Bennett Miller came away with “Best Director” at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival for “Foxcatcher.” Oscar-nominated for his previous biographical films “Moneyball” (2011) and “Capote” (2005), Miller has already proven his finesse for mixing fact and fiction on-screen, and this film shouldn’t deviate.

You can see “Foxcatcher” in select US theaters November 14.

The Theory of Everything

Film by James Marsh

We all know Stephen Hawking for his extraordinary life – as one of foremost physicists of our time, he is equally renowned for his lifelong triumph over ALS. But “The Theory of Everything” begins much earlier than this. Directed by James Marsh and based on the book by ex-wife Jane Hawking, the film follows a halcyon college romance between Stephen (Eddie Redmayne) and Jane (Felicity Jones) to the onset of his illness and dissolution of their marriage.

Here are some words on the film from Hawking himself, posted on his Facebook page:

It’s quite something to be the subject of a major film. It makes you realize how short life is when they cut out the boring bits. But in all seriousness, I am honored and humbled by the film that was made. Always support those who struggle and always strive to prevail even when you think you cannot.

I thought Eddie Redmayne portrayed me very well in The Theory of Everything Movie. He spent time with ALS sufferers so he could be authentic. At times, I thought he was me.
Seeing the film has given me the opportunity to reflect on my life. Although I’m severely disabled, I have been successful in my scientific work. I travel widely and have been to Antarctica and Easter Island, down in a submarine and up on a zero gravity flight. One day I hope to go into space.
I’ve been privileged to gain some understanding of the way the universe operates through my work. But it would be an empty universe indeed without the people that I love.

“The Theory of Everything” is set to release in select theaters on November 7.
