The answer to the question is probably best stated as, “Only in America.” The movie, I, Tonya is the most recent version of the story of Tonya Harding’s life, including her infamous attack on fellow Olympic figure skater Nancy Kerrigan designed to keep Kerrigan out of the Olympics and open the door for Harding to shine on her own. The two were competitors on the ice skating rink, but little did Kerrigan know how far Harding was willing to go to grab the glory of Olympic fame. Fast forward to 2017, Harding’s story is basically a narrative about how to

Only in America: The O.J. Simpson saga [See previous post: Isabelle Huppert & Moonlight among Nsfc winners.] The National Society of Film Critics' Best Non-Fiction Film was Ezra Edelman's five-part Espn Films documentary O.J.: Made in America, about the trials (there were two) and tribulations of disgraced all-American football player and sometime movie actor O.J. Simpson (The Towering Inferno, The Naked Gun: From the Files of the Police Squad!). In 1994, Simpson was accused of murdering his former wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Lyle Goldman in Los Angeles' Brentwood neighborhood. The ensuing trial became one of the ugliest – and most popular – all-American circuses of the second half of the 20th century. With the assistance of a high-profile defense team, Simpson was acquitted of the murders, but at a follow-up civil trial he was found liable for Brown Simpson's and Goldman's wrongful deaths. Years later, in 2008, he would be convicted of and imprisoned for several felonies unrelated to the 1994 murders.

One of the biggest reasons why 2D animation is still alive and well in other parts of the world is that some countries never got the memo that all animated films needed to be about talking animals or singing princesses. Only in America do we seem to believe that animation should exclusively be used to capture things that cannot be placed in front of a camera — this, even at a time when the dominant live-action films are basically cartoons with celebrity stand-ins. Hollywood has completely resigned itself to the idea that seeing is inherently better than imagining, each newly announced “live-action” remake a reaffirmation of the idea that every drawing wants to be a photograph.
That isn’t (and has never been) the case in Japan, however, where animated movies are so often about people — not the secret lives of their pets, or their action figures, or their sex-crazed foodstuffs,...

The Jinx.

In the most anticipated session at this year's Aidc, Film Victoria presented Keynote in Conversation: The Jinx - Only in America.
The Saturday Paper's Martin McKenzie-Murray hosted the HBO show's producer-editor, Zac Stuart-Pontier, and its producer-cinematographer, Marc Smerling.
The Jinx tells the story of Manhattan real estate heir Robert Durst, long suspected of a hand in the disappearance of his wife Kathie in 1982.
Smerling latched on to the case via a newspaper article, and ended up writing a feature screenplay based on it..
All Good Things was made in 2010, starring Ryan Gosling as the Durst character and Kirsten Dunst as his wife..
According to Smerling, Heath Ledger was originally cast.
When Ledger died, Gosling stepped in to the breach. It was not, Smerling told the delegates, a happy partnership.

On March 24th, 1975, struggling actor Sylvester Stallone spent his last few dollars to see boxing champ Muhammad Ali fight Chuck Wepner. Thought to be an easy win, Ali surprisingly met his match: a career brawler who was having the fight of his life. Fifteen rounds and an Ali knockdown later, Wepner lost. But the scrappy no name fighter inspired Stallone, who emerged from a twenty-hour writing binge with a screenplay and an underdog character named Rocky Balboa.
The script quickly became a hot property in Hollywood, and several attempts were made to purchase it for stars like Burt Reynolds and Ryan O’Neal. But Stallone refused, knowing full well that no one could play the part like he could. Stallone eventually got his wish at United Artists, and under director John G. Avildsen, the rest became movie history. Released in 1976, Rocky was a global sensation, winning a Best Picture Oscar...

Looking, Season 2, Episode 6: “Looking for Gordon Freeman”
Directed by Jamie Babbit
Written by Jc Lee
Airs Sundays at 10 Pm on HBO
In Looking for Gordon Freeman, Agustin continually compares Patrick to Clarissa Dalloway, Virginia Woolf’s seminal neurotic hostess. This is not an obscure reference for anyone with a cursory knowledge of American literature. Even if someone’s never read the book, they’ve probably heard the name before and know it has something to do with parties and flowers and tragedy. But, the reference is completely lost on Patrick. For Agustin – and perhaps for the liberal arts educated Looking viewership – this gap in knowledge is a bit surprising, but it says more about Patrick’s interests than his intelligence. So he’s not a reader. He knows a ton about obscure video game characters, and is shocked when no one recognizes his Gordon Freeman Halloween costume. Maybe Gordon Freeman...

Chicago – Only in America can an animal die millions of years ago, have its fossilized bones discovered in the 20th Century, and end up in a court of law, determining who she belongs to as if in a child custody case. The story of the most complete Tyrannosaurus Rex ever found is chronicled in the new documentary “Dinosaur 13.”
The T-Rex in question is nicknamed Sue, named after her discover Susan Hendrickson, and now resides in the Field Museum of Chicago. Hendrickson was part of a fossil-hunting-for-profit team who uncovered Sue in 1990, only to have a location dispute put her ownership rights into litigation. This story is fascinating, from the viewpoint of what land ownership means, and who owns what is found on said lands. It also is a cautionary tale about messing with the U.S. government, because as this film rightly points out, they mostly use their law...

Anyway: A huge chunk of the special -- about 14 minutes of it -- was devoted to Cher playing all the parts in a truncated version of "West Side Story." You read that right. She' plays every role, male or female, and sings all the parts too. Only in America! Thirty-six years later, the spectacle is spellbinding. Somehow, someday, somewhere -- There's a place for Cher.

In Million Dollar Arm's second half, when it collapses like the '78 Red Sox, Jon Hamm's Jb Bernstein has plucked two promising athletes from their villages on the subcontinent and then borderline imprisoned them in his austere California manse. Just months before, these young men had never held a baseball. They need to be told, on their first day of training, why fielders wear gloves. Neither speaks English, both are achingly homesick, and they're drilling each day with c...

Jay-z has a lot of respect for Miley Cyrus. In fact, he has so much respect for the former Disney pop star that he flat out called her "a God" on Twitter.
Mr. Beyonce Knowles held a rare fan Q&A to promote his new album "Magna Carta Holy Grail" and answered questions at random. One person asked, "do you think twerking should replace the electric slide at weddings?" Jay-z's response? "Personally???Yes.. Miley is a God."
Cyrus clearly appreciated the mention, tweeting, "Call it what you want. But I don't see Mr. Carter shoutin any of you b****es out. #twerkmileytwerk."
Of course, the shout out was also a reference to one of "Magna Carta Holy Grail's" new tracks. "Somewhereinamerica" shouts out Cyrus' twerking skills, with lyrics including, "When I was talking Instagram / Last thing you wanted was your picture snapped / Feds still lurking / They see I'm still...

Here’s a sentence we never thought we’d write: Jay-z is coming out swinging against Miley Cyrus – again — for her newfound love of twerking. During a question-and-answer session with fans July 8, Beyoncé‘s husband received the following tweet: “You really think Miley Cyrus still twerking somewhere in America?” Then came his epic answer.
“Yes!” Jay-z tweeted back. “She represents an old worlds worst nightmare.”
Lack of punctuation aside, Jay is clearly taking a major dig at the former Hannah Montana star. I mean, how many different ways can you interpret him calling her ‘an old world’s worst nightmare?’

Oddly enough, this isn’t the first time Jay-z has dissed Miley, specifically for her twerking obsession.

Thanks a lot, Jay-z. Now you've legitimized Miley Cyrus' habit of twerking, which is just what the world needed.
"Magna Carta Holy Grail" is available now to Samsung Galaxy owners and one track in particular, "Somewhereinamerica," seems pretty enthusiastic about the pop star's dancing, with these lyrics:
"When I was talking Instagram / Last thing you wanted was your picture snapped / Feds still lurking / They see I'm still putting work in / Cause somewhere in America / Miley Cyrus is still twerkin', Ha! / Twerk, twerk, twerk, twerk / Twerk, Miley, Miley, twerk / Twerk, Twerk, Miley, Miley, Miley, twerk / Twerk, yeah, ugh-huh / Twerk, Miley, Miley, Miley / Only in America."
Only in America, indeed. It's like the 2013 version of Lynyrd Skynyrd calling out Neil Young, only way less exciting. Miley seems pretty excited with the shout out, tweeting, "Somewhere in America a Jay Z song is onnnnnn." Again, thanks Jay-z.
Check out the song below,...

Like Nicki Minaj, it appears Jay-z's digging whole Miley Cyrus twerking thing. On new album, Magna Carta Holy Grail, which dropped on July 4, the rapper pokes fun at the erstwhile Hannah Montana star's newfound twerking abilities on his track, "Somewhere in America." "When I was talking Instagram, Last thing you wanted was your picture snapped/Feds still lurking, They see I'm still putting work in/Cause somewhere in America, Miley Cyrus is still twerkin', Ha!" Jay-z rhymes. "Twerk, twerk, twerk, twerk, Twerk, Miley, Miley, twerk/Twerk, Twerk, Miley, Miley, Miley, twerk/Twerk, yeah, ugh-huh, Twerk, Miley, Miley, Miley / Only in America." Call it a good-natured payback...

It appears her infamous “twerkin’” video made quite an impression on Jay-z, as Miley Cyrus is the subject of the last verse of the rapper’s new song “somewhereinamerica.”
The track appears on Magna Carta Holy Grail which released on July 4th for Samsung Galaxy users (it’ll hit stores for the rest of the world on July 9th).
Jay raps, “Cause somewhere in America / Miley Cyrus is still twerkin’, Ha! / Twerk, twerk, twerk, twerk / Twerk, Miley, Miley, twerk / Twerk, Twerk, Miley, Miley, Miley, twerk / Twerk, yeah, uh-huh / Twerk, Miley, Miley, Miley / Only in America.”
Back in 2009, Miley started the shout-out exchange by mentioning, “And the Jay-z song was on…” in her hit “Party in the USA.”...

Miley may love to twerk all day and night, but not everyone is impressed! Not only has Jay-z made it clear he’s not a fan — but he’s actually laughing at her on his new album, ‘Magna Carta Holy Grail!’
Miley Cyrus‘ famous twerking apparently isn’t for everyone. In Jay-z‘s new song “Somewhere in America,” he literally laughs at Miley’s famous risque dance move.
Jay-z Makes Fun Of Miley Cyrus
Jay-z’s new album Magna Carta Holy Grail won’t be fully released until July 7, but it’s already gone platinum after he released some of his songs early.
One song however, takes a stab at the one and only Miley Cyrus. Jay raps on “Somewhereinamerica”:
When I was talking Instagram, last thing you wanted was your picture snapped. Feds still lurking, they see I’m still putting work in, ’cause somewhereinamerica, Miley Cyrus is still twerkin’, ha!

Call it pop culture commentary, call it tit-for-tat. However you see it, Jay-z is using his new album to return the shout-out Miley Cyrus gave him on "Party in the U.S.A." More specifically, he's referencing the young singer's famed twerking.
Jay seems a bit amused by Cryus' pastime, closing out the slick-sounding "Somewhereinamerica" (yes, one word) with these lyrics:
"When I was talking Instagram / Last thing you wanted was your picture snapped / Feds still lurking / They see I'm still putting work in / Cause somewhere in America / Miley Cyrus is still twerkin', Ha! / Twerk, twerk, twerk, twerk / Twerk, Miley, Miley, twerk / Twerk, Twerk, Miley, Miley, Miley, twerk / Twerk, yeah, ugh-huh / Twerk, Miley, Miley, Miley / Only in America."
The rapper drops in some not-too-subtle laughter throughout the verse, leaving it up to us to discern, rather easily, his views on Cyrus' treatment of the dance craze -- a movement that originated in hip-hop culture.
