På 90-talet var hon Hollywoods bäst betalda kvinnliga skådespelare. På 00-talet var hon uträknad. Vid 62 års ålder kom hon tillbaka i sitt livs roll. Nya avsnitt från P3 ID hittar du först i Sveriges Radio Play. Med filmer som Ghost, På heder och samvete, Ett oanständigt förslag, och Skamgrepp var Demi Moore ett av filmvärldens största dragplåster under 1990-talet.Men när hon stod på toppen av sina karriär, och krävde lika hög ersättning som sina manliga skådespelarkollegor, blev hon kallad girig. Plötsligt vände allt för Moore, som gick från stekhet till iskall i Hollywood.P3 ID om Demi Moore är berättelsen om uppgång, fall, och återuppståndelse.Efter en tumultartad barndom slog Moore igenom som 19-åring i såpoperan General Hospital. Sprit, knark, vilda fester och snabba nätter på motorcykel genom Los Angeles tog vid. I slutet av 80-talet blev hon och Die Hard-stjärnan Bruce Willis Hollywoods starkast lysande ”power couple”, och därefter tycktes inget kunna hejda Moores klättring till biotoppen.Men knivarna var vässade, redo att stickas in vid minsta felsteg...Över två decennier efter att hennes superstjärnestatus punkterats klev Moore för första gången in i filmvärldens absoluta finrum, när filmen The Substance skapade svallvågor i Cannes. Rollen som den bedagade och ratade Hollywooddrottningen Elisabeth Sparkle låg spöklikt nära Demi Moores egna erfarenheter, och hon hissades till skyarna för sin tolkning.För första gången nämndes Moores namn på allvar i Oscarssammanhang, en halv livstid efter att hon en gång haft den amerikanska filmindustrin i sin hand.Medverkande: Olga Ruin, chefredaktör för filmtidskriften FLM, Anne Thompson, kritiker på sajten Indiewire.Klippen i programmet är hämtade från: ABC News, NPR, CNBC, Red Table Talk, Ljudboksversionen av Moores självbiografi Inside Out, Touchstone Pictures, The Late Shows Youtubekanal, Mubi, AP, Entertainment Tonight, Movieclips

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for March 28, 2025 is: derelict • DAIR-uh-likt • adjective Derelict is a formal word that describes something that is no longer cared for or used by anyone. It can also describe someone who is negligent or who fails to do what needs to be done. // The kids made sure to stay away from the spooky derelict houses in the neighborhood on Halloween. // The officers were charged with being derelict in their duty. See the entry > Examples: "In a movie that spends most of its time confined to the disorienting guts of a derelict spaceship, tracking Kenneth's de-evolution from Kennedy wannabe to a used car salesman version of Colonel Kurtz is often the only moral compass we have to find our way towards a better tomorrow." — David Ehrlich, Indie Wire, 15 Feb. 2025 Did you know? The Latin verb relinquere, meaning "to leave behind," left English with a number of words, including derelict. Something derelict has been left behind, or at least appears that way. In another sense, someone who is derelict leaves behind or neglects their duties or obligations. Another descendant of relinquere is relinquish, meaning "to leave behind," "to give up," or "to release." Relic also ultimately comes from relinquere. Relics, in the original sense of the term, are things treasured for their association with a saint or martyr—that is, objects saints and martyrs left behind. Relinquere also gives English its name for the containers or shrines which hold relics, reliquary.

Reznor said, "I haven't been paying close attention to what the status of those things are because this is a relatively new development.

Trent Reznor was asked by Indie Wire if there's a chance he'll reissue older Nine Inch Nails video projects and he replied, "I'm trying to think what I'm able to say right now. We are doing some things with Interscope again. There's a renewed interest in making sure the back catalog is being curated and maintained properly." Reznor was asked if one of those things in the catalog is a reissue of the 1997 video album Closure, which was released as a double VHS tape but had a DVD reissue shelved in the early 2000s. Reznor said, "I haven't been paying close attention to what the status of those things are because this is a relatively new development. But that's a good thing to mention because I would like to have that in some consumable fashion, whether it be streamable or something.”Fred Durst says people have misunderstood the lyrics for Limp Bizkit's "Nookie" for 25 yearsTVHot Ones host Sean Evans is now a key stakeholder in First We Feast, the studio that produces his popular celebrity interview series.MOVING ON INTO MOVIE NEWS:It looks like casting may be locked in for the four-part biopic series on The Beatles, with each band member getting their own film.'Elvis' and 'Dune 2' star Austin Butler has been cast as Patrick Bateman for the 'American Psycho' remake.
