Adam Driver criticizes Netflix and Amazon at Venice Film Festival amid ongoing SAG strike (CNN) — Appearing at a press conference during the Venice Film Festival on Thursday, “Ferrari” star Adam Driver name-checked streaming giants Amazon and Netflix as the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes in Hollywood continue.“Why is it that a smaller distribution company like Neon and STX International (distributors for “Ferrari”) can meet the dream demands of what SAG is asking for – this is pre-negotiations – the dream version of SAG’s wishlist, but a big company like Netflix and Amazon can’t,” Driver asked.He added that “every time people from SAG go and support a movie that has agreed to these terms – the interim agreement – it just makes it more obvious that these people are willing to support the people that they collaborate with, and the others are not.”The actor has starred in several Netflix films, including last year’s “White Noise” and 2019’s “Marriage Story,” a performance for which he earned an Oscar nomination.Driver is among the few actors who are participating in events ...

Jerry Reinsdorf says he doesn’t plan to sell the Chicago White Sox: ‘I want to make it better before I go.’

Jerry Reinsdorf says he doesn’t plan to sell the Chicago White Sox: ‘I want to make it better before I go.’ Those “Sell the team” signs seen at Guaranteed Rate Field the last two seasons haven’t persuaded Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf to take the advice of disgruntled Chicago White Sox fans.Asked during a meeting with selected reporters Thursday why he won’t sell the team, the 87-year-old Reinsdorf had a ready answer.“I’m going to couch this so nobody writes that I thought of selling,” Reinsdorf said. “Friends of mine have said: ‘Why don’t you sell? Why don’t you get out?’ My answer always has been: ‘I like what I’m doing, as bad as it is, and what else would I do?’“I’m a boring guy. I don’t play golf. I don’t play bridge. And I want to make it better before I go.”Reinsdorf is part of a group that has owned the Sox since 1981. They have won one championship in that span, in 2005, the only year they’ve won a playoff series during his regime. The clamor for Reinsdorf to s...

Great Move-In Day hits Boston, with trash and mattresses piling up

Great Move-In Day hits Boston, with trash and mattresses piling up U-Haul rental trucks taking up city streets and college students pushing their belongings in large laundry carts are out in full force across Boston, as Great Move-In Day has arrived.Officials on Thursday offered their do’s and don’ts on how students can have a successful weekend free of headaches as they move into their new living quarters.Though a great bulk of moves will be taking place Friday and Saturday, officials say they’ve been busy for days and weeks prior to Allston Christmas, the notorious “holiday” in which students flood the city once more and apartments turn over, leaving heaps of furniture, mattresses and decorations for thrifty shoppers to pilfer through.The Department of Public Works has picked up 38 tons of trash, since Saturday, on top of the  200 tons that its residential team averages daily, said Mike Brohel, superintendent of street operations.Trucks are picking up heavier loads at the curb more often than just regular scheduled trash days, and they will conti...

Red Sox notebook: Break too little, too late for broken Boston team

Published Tue, 05 Nov 2024 10:46:02 GMT

Red Sox notebook: Break too little, too late for broken Boston team After 16 consecutive days of play, the Red Sox finally caught a break on Thursday.Unfortunately, the much-needed day off likely came too late for Boston’s beleaguered team, which went 1-6 during their homestand against the Los Angeles Dodgers and Houston Astros, to wrap up August with a 13-15 record.Every game of the regular season counts, but this was the 10-game stretch when Red Sox needed to be, as Mary Poppins would say, “practically perfect in every way.”Instead, they fell apart in almost every way. Starting pitchers averaged 4.6 innings per start in August. The Astros pummeled the Boston bullpen within an inch of its life during this week’s sweep, and other than Adam Duvall, the team should have an all-points bulletin out for the Boston bats. After Triston Casas gave the Red Sox a 2-0 lead in the first inning of Monday’s series opener, Houston outscored Boston 26-9 the rest of the week.A day off, or rather a travel day before their weekend series ...

Hospitalizations had dipped to 100 patients in July.In addition to the recent rise in local cases and hospitalizations, the Boston-area COVID wastewater has been ticking up — the first sign of more virus cases at the community level. The south-of-Boston wastewater average has gone up 36% in the last week, while the north-of-Boston average h...
