Exclusive: Documentary from Golden Lion winner to premiere in competition at the Berlinale.
Doc & Film International has acquired international rights to Gianfranco Rosi’s documentary Fire At Sea (Fuocoammare) capturing life on the Italian island of Lampedusa, a frontline in the European migrant crisis.
The feature will premiere in the Berlinale’s main feature competition, much of which was announced today [Jan 11].

A swimmer was bitten by a juvenile great white shark that grew agitated trying to free itself from a hook a fisherman had thrown into the water off Southern California's Manhattan Beach Pier, officials said.

2009 saw the reformation of Mr Big and the hard rock world went crazy. A few shows around the world led up to the release of ‘Back to Budokan’ CD and DVD and many thought that was it…
Not so. As Eric Martin said to a buzzing crowd at Newcastle’s O2 Academy, “Mr Big is back baby!” And goodness me: back they most certainly are!
The band was formed in 1988 by former David Lee Roth bass player Billy Sheehan, who then subsequently recruited guitarist Paul Gilbert, singer Eric Martin and drummer Pat Torpay before unleashing their technical genius on an unsuspecting world. They forged their trademark sound through heavy hard-rocking riffs, soulfull power ballads and colourful vocal harmonies, all held together with unbelievable technical ability. Nobody in the universe plays bass like Billy Sheehan and as for Gilbert… well, is there anyone better? It’s certainly not as easy a...

Previously on "FlashForward:" S.P. actually sorta liked an episode, which was extremely short lived.
We open on the lady who gave Demetri the good news about his murder as she watches A Christmas Carol at her desk. At work. Very intensely. Then the camera pans over to her window where she, like NotRalph, brandishes her own mosaic board. Neat.
And speak-of-the-Mongoloid, he and Demetri land in Hong Kong to look for said lady, 'cause as NotRalph astutely surmises, "How many Western Persian-speaking women with that kind of accent can there be in Hong Kong?" I don't know, NotRalph, but it's still fucking Hong Kong.
Then, after a random threat from a Hong Kong agent named Marshall Vogel (who knows what was up his butt), NotRalph enjoys a lovely conversation with Stan who's a titch angry at the boys for disregarding his orders. Then, acting in complete accordance with all human reactions,...
