Dreams to Come: What Will Happen to Nick in the Final Season?
Imagine you're doing a survey. You show someone a picture of a stranger--something with a little bit of personality--and you ask them to describe the person they see. They won't tell you much at first, but with urging, they'll begin to fill in the gaps, and eventually, they'll become so sure of their assumptions that it will be hard to convince them they're not true--even if they are introduced to that person in real life. That is what has been happening with Nick Blaine for the past five years. We know nothing about him, save for one short flashback, but if you were to survey a group of fans, they'd tell you all sorts of wild tales. Some think he's the perfect knight in shining armor, far superior to Luke; others will shrug and say they don't know; the rest will swear up and down that they physically saw him devouring an infant under the full moon. Nick is like any other character in the franchise. He's complicated, and he's modeled after a real person, not a fictional love interest. That means he's contradictory. Sometimes his actions and beliefs don't follow a logical pattern. You'll never be able to fill in the gaps. No stereotype will fit. He's not 'one of those' no matter what definition you'd apply to that phrase. The franchise never does bad or good, either. They're never going to write in a person that you absolutely love. They're always going to have some flaw, some demon, some shady past--and it will probably be enough to sour them in our eyes. Not everyone can be comfortable with that. They want black and white, square pegs for square holes, and if that's not what they're given, they'll grab a chisel and start whittling away at that peg until it fits. We do have clues about what's going on inside his head and who he is. But they pose more questions than answers, and it's never enough to give us the full picture. There's always something missing--some integral piece that could finally define the man behind the eyebrows. Perhaps we'll learn more. For now, we'll just have to go with what we've been given.
Why Isn’t Bryan Cranston an A-List Star After His Big Break on 'Breaking Bad'?
Bryan Cranston was a familiar figure in the aughts, having made a name for himself as Hal, the father and husband of a dysfunctional family composed of four (later five) boys and a hot-headed mother/wife in Fox's hit sitcom Malcolm in the Middle. The comedy show that aired seven seasons from 2000 to 2006 caused a buzz, scoring an 8.1/10 rating on IMDb and 95% on Google Review.A couple of years later, Cranston starred in the crime drama series Breaking Bad which went on to become one of the best TV shows in history. Playing Mr. White, an underpaid middle-aged chemistry teacher with cancer who slowly lost his head as he tossed himself into the meth business, Cranston instantly came under the public radar. However, after the multi-award-winning show wrapped up in 2013, Cranston hasn't been bringing much heat on television.
Rare Photos of Marilyn Monroe That Show Ana de Armas’ ‘Blonde’ May Not Trail Too Far from the Truth
The controversial biopic film Blonde by Andrew Dominik has been under public scrutiny since its debut for objectifying and victimizing the iconic figure Marilyn Monroe. The nostalgic film stars Ana de Armas as the blonde bombshell alongside Julianne Nicholson as Gladys (Marilyn’s mother), Bobby Cannavale as Joe DiMaggio (Marilyn’s second husband), Adrien Brody as Arthur Miller (Marilyn’s third husband), Xavier Samuel as Cass (Charlie Chaplin’s son) and Evan Williams as Eddy (the son of Edward G. Robinson) among other stars. Unlike the glamorized and sexualized version, we all know, Blonde focuses on a despondent Marilyn, who had an arduous life from childhood and merely swayed through her career and personal life as if in someone else’s hands. She vehemently strives to distinguish the flirtatious Marilyn Monroe from her true self Norma Jean, a lonely, sad and misunderstood girl.

Dreams to Come: Lydia and and the Future of The Handmaid's Tale Franchise
After the series finale, the franchise will be moving forward with an adaption of The Testaments, the sequel to Margaret Atwood's original book. It will follow an elderly version of Aunt Lydia during the middle Gilead period, a time when piety, radicalism, and obedience have become the norm. It's difficult to reconcile the Lydia we read about in the novels and the Lydia in the series. Some fans believe it's impossible, and in many ways it is. Their backstories are different. Testaments Lydia was a family court judge who believed in liberty, equality, and democracy. After congress was slaughtered, a group of young men burst into the courthouse and threw her into a van. They broke her down with forced confinement, sensory deprivation, and starvation until she felt a sense of loyalty to her captors. It was a common brainwashing technique--one that she herself seems to have mastered. Once she had proven her loyalty, she was introduced Aunt Vidala, Aunt Helena, and Aunt Elizabeth--a group that she quickly dominated. They became the founding aunts, tasked with building a separate women's sphere of government. They came up with uniforms, laws, prayers, and rituals--the groundwork for much of the female system we've come to know in the franchise. The reason Commander Judd was credited for this work in the novels was because he claimed their ideas as his own and used them to gain clout with the other commanders. They had as much influence on the formation of the system as the rest of the Sons of Jacob. Lydia was proud that she had accomplished so much in so little time, but she was wholeheartedly ashamed of what she was doing. She didn't sign up for the task of indoctrinating and oppressing her own gender.  She was never blinded by rhetoric. She wrote much of that rhetoric herself, and she took great pleasure in the fact that she was able to slip in references to female empowerment and paganism. It was her own personal form of humor.
Dreams to Come: Where June's Journey Is Leading in 'The Handmaid's Tale'
Season 5 began as a dream, blood swept across a washcloth, shower water pouring into a standalone bathtub--June covered in Fred, smiling, stuck in a moment of pure catharsis and elation. In the latter portion of season 4, we see an obsession beginning to form. Everyone around her has moved on with their lives. Rita had been in Canada for months. She identified her Stockholm syndrome dynamic with Serena, and she made a conscious choice to step away from it. Moira had spent several years learning to heal and help others. She was at a place where she could counsel women and show them down the path toward normalcy. Emily had taken that path herself. She was trying to go back to work, ease her wounds surrounding sex and relationships, and quell some of the anger she'd built up inside. They lived the way we live. That was their gauge for normalcy, a return to the time before, where things like guns, violence, and vendettas were considered pathological signs of trauma, not a reaction to the world around them. They didn't look back, and they didn't put up a meaningful resistance. June saw that. She understood what they were doing, and she knew what it meant to move on. But that wasn't her normal. For years she'd faced salvagings, men violating women, brainwashing, and intimidation, and she couldn't just leave that behind. She tried their route. She spent time with Nichole. She would have night-ins with her friends, sipping wine and talking. They'd all laugh, go over the specifics of their time-before lifestyles, and then she'd say something awkward, and it would pop their bubble. She was overcome by guilt--a sense that there were other women out there who didn't have the life that they had. It hurt, living so well, while there were slaves toiling in commander's homes. She was in pain. She had gone through too much to just kick her feet up and ignore the rest of the world. She couldn't live in the quiet moments, rest, laugh, and be with the ones she loved, because she wasn't with them. She was being waterboarded, cattle prodded, herded by attack dogs, and manipulated in Fred's office. That had to end. She knew it needed to end, and her best way to do that, she believed, would be to trust in the authorities. She gave her testimony to the ICC court, where she talked about her enslavement, and she waited for Fred's sentencing. Laying it all out there should've had a relieving effect; his sentence should've been the last nail in his coffin. Once she found justice, she thought she would find peace. But she didn't find justice. The American government made a deal with a man who had more blood on his hands than any man alive today. It was a bitter betrayal, part of a chain of events that would lead her to believe that she couldn't trust them to help. If she wanted revenge, she would have to get it her own way. She put her skills as a leader to use, gathered a group of handmaids, and they tore him apart with their bare hands in No Man's Land.
