Have you ever wondered what it's like to be a woman in Hollywood? What it takes and just as importantly... what it takes from you. For Jennifer Esposito, the men in Hollywood have never made it easy. Just as they do with so many women, they put her in a box and all but demanded she stay there. But Jennifer is not one to stay silent. So she decides to take her experiences (personally and professionally) and make an incredible film Fresh Kills. It's a story about two sisters born into a mafia family and how they struggle to survive in a world with so few choices and deadly consequences. But who could have predicted that the REAL crime would be what happened to this film after its release... WATCH FRESH KILLS ON HULU FEBRUARY 7TH!

No news brief this week rather a focus on the Tribeca Film Festival. Melissa highlights some of the fantastic women-made films selected for the festival. She also interviews Jennifer Esposito, writer/director/actor of FRESH KILLS and Academy Award®-nominated director Waad al-Kateab (WE DARE TO DREAM). The daughters of the Larusso family struggle to break the unspoken code of the women behind the men in the mob world of Staten Island in the late '80s and early '90s. Unlike any mob movie you've ever seen before, FRESH KILLS reveals the women behind the men. The stories never told. Violence, fear, and unspoken rules dictate who they are and who they are allowed to become. "Fresh Kills is less about the mafia world and more about the journey of the women in it. It explores the issues of wanting more than you were allotted in life. A theme almost everyone can relate to. It looks at unspoken rules in our society and then seeing if we have the courage to break them for ourselves and for the generation to follow.” Jennifer Esposito WE DARE TO DREAM: We Dare to Dream is the story of refugee athletes from Iran, Syria, South Sudan and Cameroon who swim, run and fight their way to opportunity and safety in host nations across the world. Spanning a breadth of backgrounds, personal stories and Olympic sports, the film reveals the lives and hopes of refugee athletes training to compete on the world stage, showing the fire and the drive of young people forced to leave their families, homes and countries of birth to build new lives out of nothing. Directed by Academy Award®-nominated director Waad al-Kateab (For Sama) and produced by Academy Award® winner Joanna Natasegara (The White Helmets, Virunga, The Edge of Democracy) and Emmy-winning producer Abigail Anketell-Jones (The Edge of Democracy, The Nightcrawlers) of Violet Films, two time Academy Award®-nominated producer, Bryn Mooser (Body Team 12, Lifeboat) and Kathryn Everett of XTR Studios and Joe Gebbia of Gebbia Productions, We Dare to Dream tells the amazing stories of young refugee athletes aiming to compete in the Tokyo Olympics. The film features refugee athletes Anjelina Nadai Lohalith, Cyrille Tchatchet II, Kimia Alizadeh, Saeid Fazloula and Wael Fawaz Al-Farraj. This is their story of resilience and inspiration, hardship and loss, hope and home.

We met with the triple threat (Director/Writer/Actor) Jennifer Esposito to discuss the world premiere of her film Fresh Kills at the 2023 Tribeca Film Festival. While the film is based in the mob world in NY (specifically Staten Island), Esposito went out of her way to make sure that not only would the film be as accurate and as authentic as possible -- but that it would be told from a women's perspective for the first time. In a lot of these films, the men are the ones carrying the movie. However, for Esposito, hearing from the often voiceless, the women behind the men was essential. Esposito and I broke down a few scenes without giving too much away because this is a MUST-WATCH at the festival. Host: Monica Gleberman Editor: Marianna Randazzo Social Media Graphic: Jojo -- Synopsis: The daughters of the Larusso family struggle to break the unspoken code of the women behind the men in the mob world of Staten Island in the late '80s and early '90s.

Episode No. 573 features artists Matthew Ronay and Jade Doskow. The Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas is presenting "Matthew Ronay: The Crack, the Swell, an Earth, an Ode" through January 15, 2023. The exhibition features a nearly 24-foot-long sculpture that functions as both an introduction to Ronay's exploration of surrealism, abstraction, representation and art's history, and also as a summary of the last decade of his work. The exhibition was curated by Leigh Arnold and is accompanied by a catalogue published by the Nasher and Gregory R. Miller & Co. Indiebound and Amazon offer it for about $55. Ronay's work has been featured in solo shows at the Blaffer Art Gallery and at the Pérez Art Museum Miami. He has been included in group shows at the Dallas Museum of Art, the North Carolina Museum of Art, the Williams College Museum of Art, and more. The John Hartell Gallery at the Cornell University College of Architecture, Art, and Planning is presenting "A New Wilderness: Freshkills." The exhibition features photographs by Freshkills photographer-in-residence Jade Doskow and a series of soundscapes by Heather Campanelli. The work shows the evolution of Staten Island's Freshkills from a landfill -- the world's largest household garbage dump -- into a 2,200-acre city park. The exhibition is on view through November 4. Doskow's Freshkills work debuted in The New York Times. Black Dog London published a monograph of Doskow's "Lost Utopias" work in 2016. Instagram: Matthew Ronay, Jade Doskow, Tyler Green.
After his exposure to toxic debris from the collapsed twin towers, Tom Wilson, a former NYPD sergeant on 9/11, recalled his eyes and throat burning.Wilson secured the Manhattan side of the Williamsburg Bridge on 9/11, conducted security around Ground Zero in the month following, was involved in rescue efforts, and among other assignments, searched rooftops in lower Manhattan for remains. He also combed through the Fresh Kills landfill on Staten Island for hours at a time into April 2002, sifting and raking through debris for items like bone fragments, rings and personal belongings to bring victims' families closure.Though cancers weren't yet covered by the World Trade Center Health Program for treatment in 2008, when Wilson was diagnosed, current federal figures note 23,710 program members, including responders and survivors, with at least one cancer, and by 2020, members had 50,611 noncancer WTC-related certifications. As of the end of July of this year, 4,627 program members had died, though data don't indicate the cause of death. According to CDC/NIOSH spokesperson Stephanie Stevens, the most common health conditions seen among responders and survivors include chronic rhinosinusitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) many types of cancer, asthma, sleep apnea, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression.Wilson went on to endure over one-third of his tongue removed and rebuilt with a skin graft from his wrist, along with two radical neck dissections to remove 39 lymph nodes and place an arterial graft in the neck to supply blood to the new tongue. He is still grappling with long-term effects from subsequent head and neck radiation, and deals with severe pain, dizziness and headaches.Source: https://www.foxnews.com/health/9-11-toxic-exposure-cancer-20-years-later
