Academy’s Contemporary Docs Series Travels To Zimbabwe

Beverly Hills, CA – “Music by Prudence” and “Mugabe and the White African” will screen as the next installment in the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ 29th annual “Contemporary Documentaries” series on Wednesday, March 30, at 7 p.m. at the Linwood Dunn Theater in Hollywood. Admission to all screenings in the series is free.

“Music by Prudence” is the story about the most unlikely voice of hope – singer-songwriter Prudence Mabhena and her band of seven young disabled Zimbabweans – trying to survive in a bankrupt country. Directed by Roger Ross Williams and produced by Williams and Elinor Burkett, the film earned the 2009 Academy Award® for Documentary Short Subject.

In “Mugabe and the White African,” a courageous white farmer, Mike Campbell, challenges Zimbabwe’s president, Robert Mugabe, before an international court in an effort to protect his property, his family’s livelihood and that of the 500 black workers who also live on his farm. The film was directed by Lucy Bailey and Andrew Thompson and produced by David Pearson and Elizabeth Morgan Hemlock.

The 29th annual “Contemporary Documentaries” series continues through June 1, showcasing feature-length and short documentaries drawn from the 2009 Academy Award nominations, including the winners, as well as other important and innovative films considered by the Academy that year. (more…)

Kate Winslet Embraces Sizzling Fashion Trend – Polka Dots

Tuesday, March 22nd, 2011

Kate Winslet has been dominating the headlines lately due to her appearance on the March cover of British Vogue with platinum blonde tresses which initially appeared to be cut short.

Hair experts now believe Kate was coiffed to give the appearance of a short chop when in reality her hair was carefully compressed into a tight back twist with long strands brushed back from the sides and along the top.  There’s no arguing it was definitely a great way to create media buzz.

Note: For more information visit Kate Winslet Hair Page and Kate Winslet Hair Page.

Showing up with darker blonde tresses the Oscar and Golden Globe winning actress rocked a trendy polka dot embellished frock at the premiere of HBO’s Mildred Pierce this week in New York.

Advance word on Mildred Pierce is that it’s a spectacular miniseries and Kate pulled out all her acting chops for the role.

Meanwhile the polka dot craze which was showcased at Oscar De La Renta’ Spring 2011 RTW Collection is being embraced by celebrities.

Sex And The City’s (SATC) Kristin Davis wore a sophistical strapless white flowing gown with black polka dots and a black bow belt in February 2011.  Kate’s polka dots were definitely a sexy translation of the catwalk craze.

While Kristen  went with a long flowing gown, Kate showed offer her killer curves with a peek-a-boo form fitting black dress.

Meanwhile other celebs have also been embracing polka dots.  Actress Izabella Miko showcased a short flirty polka dress on a recent Red Carpet (see below image).

Kate is also making more waves with her rumored dalliance with bad boy John Mayer now that’s she single again after her divorce.

Kate who’s 35 and John who’s 33 was featured in the March 28th issue of Star Magazine in the Love Bites column.  According to Star “Kate has been secretly spending time with (the) notorious ladies man.”
