  This is a full recording of Daniel Martin Berkey performing the play Remission, which Backstage magazine called "mind-blowing" and NYTheater called "90 intense and harrowing minutes of spectacular wordplay." Written by playwright Kirk Wood Bromley ("Shakespeare on mushrooms" - LA Weekly), produced by NYC's Inverse Theater (“Best Downtown Theater Company" - NYPress 2001), scored by John Gideon, and originally performed by Berkey himself in the NYC Fringe Festival in 2009 (winning "Outstanding Solo Show"), Remission tells the story of Berkey’s journey into and out of schizophrenia in dramatic verse that one reviewer termed "a terrifying, violent freefall into insanity" (JustShowsToGoYou). 
  With his symptoms beginning at age six, Berkey experienced a spectrum of challenges, including berating voices and haunting visions, paranoia and catatonia, and addiction to sex, heroin, and alcohol. Then, at the age of 51, homeless and deranged, while walking along a freeway on Long Island, he saw a vision – a giant golden cube suspended in the sky from which emanated 3000 winged humanoid figures beckoning him to join them in the World Self. Awaking from the splendor, he walked home, flushed his medications, and has been symptom-free ever since. 
  And while this journey is central to Remission's narrative, the play is more than a retelling. With each line, the play "stretches, exercises, jolts, and exalts the audience" (NYTheater) by immersing it in an experience of actually having schizophrenia, creating a "one-of-a-kind, undiluted and unforgettable trip into the crazy." (JustShowsToGoYou).

  Hollywood and MAGA don’t get along. There are plenty of right wingers who won’t even touch this book because "Hollywood" is on the cover. Meanwhile, there are plenty of snowflake leftists who are fighting back tears because they assume this book is propaganda from “orange Thanos” to take over Tinseltown. And then there’s you, the American. Conservative or liberal, you realize that Hollywood and MAGA are at war with each other and that it’s a battle worth examining. Make Hollywood Great Again navigates through 2017 – 2020’s theatrical releases examining journalism, conspiracy and the media, as well as a bevy of other topics. Filmmakers have addressed their undesired tenet in the White House through a variety of stories, mostly non-fiction. The book privileges The Post, Blackkklansman, The Front Runner, Dark Waters, Richard Jewell, and The Hunt among others.

  The Way They Were - How Epic...

  It's one of the greatest movie romances of all time. Yet the friction and controversy surrounding The Way We Were was so enormous, the movie was nearly never made at all. 
   
   
   
  Screenwriter Arthur Laurents wrote the role of Katie with Barbra Streisand in mind. Casting Hubbell was another matter. Robert Redford, already a superstar, was reluctant to play what he perceived as the "Ken doll" to Streisand's lead, and demanded his role be changed and expanded. Laurents resisted, telling director Sydney Pollack, "You'll ruin the movie if it ends up being about two people. It's Katie's story, not Hubbell's." Despite his protests, ten writers were brought on to rework the script. 
   
   
   
  Laurents's fears were well founded, and the first preview was disastrous. Producer Ray Stark and Pollack cut several scenes, upsetting Streisand and Laurents. Yet the edits worked. Such was the movie's success that Redford was open to making a sequel, though the script was never greenlit. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on Laurents's and Pollack's unpublished writings, as well as interviews with Streisand, Redford, and other key players, this is the definitive account of a film that changed the rules of moviemaking and defined romance ever since.
