The Edge of Seventeen Plot Summary

Everyone knows that growing up is hard, and life is no easier for high school junior Nadine (Hailee Steinfeld), who is already at peak awkwardness when her all-star older brother Darian (Blake Jenner) starts dating her best friend Krista (Haley Lu Richardson). All at once, Nadine feels more alone than ever, until an unexpected friendship with a thoughtful teen (Hayden Szeto) gives her a glimmer of hope that things just might not be so terrible after all.

The Edge of Seventeen Review

the-edge-of-seventeen

That weird, messy puzzle of trauma and affection where our high school memories reside is what powers The Edge of Seventeen.  
Craig and her actors, all of them wonderful, have freshened up the genre: As familiar as the basic story may be, it also hits some raw, nuanced notes.
This is a movie about a teen, first and foremost, rather than a "teen movie," and that's exactly what makes it feel like a peerless example for the genre.
One of the pleasures of Edge of Seventeen is it makes you nostalgic for high school yet so relieved it's over.
This first-rate teen comedy brilliantly captures the turbulence of adolescence thanks to writer-director Kelly Fremon Craig's smartly funny script and to Steinfeld's terrific lead performance.

Roger Moore, Who Played James Bond 007 Times, Dies at 89

Sir Roger Moore has sadly passed away at the age of 89.
The former James Bond star died after "a short but brave battle with cancer", his three children Deborah, Geoffrey and Christian announced in a statement.
"It is with a heavy heart that we must announce our loving father, Sir Roger Moore, has passed away today in Switzerland after a short but brave battle with cancer. The love with which he was surrounded in his final days was so great it cannot be quantified with words alone," they said.

Roger George Moore and James Bond

Sir Roger George Moore KBE (14 October 1927 – 23 May 2017) was an English actor. He played the British secret agent James Bond in seven feature films between 1973 and 1985. He is also known for playing Simon Templar in the television series The Saint between 1962 and 1969.
roger-moore
Moore took over the role of Bond from Sean Connery in 1972, and made his first appearance as 007 in Live and Let Die (1973). The longest serving Bond to date, Moore portrayed the spy in six more films. Appointed a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador in 1991, Moore was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II in 2003 for "services to charity".

Roger George Moore James Bond era (1973–1985)

After George Lazenby was cast in 1969's On Her Majesty's Secret Service and Connery played Bond again in Diamonds Are Forever (1971), Moore did not consider the possibility until it seemed abundantly clear that Connery had in fact stepped down as Bond for good. At that point Moore was approached, and he accepted producer Albert Broccoli's offer in August 1972. In his autobiography Moore writes that he had to cut his hair and lose weight for the role. Although he resented having to make those changes, he was finally cast as James Bond in Live and Let Die (1973).
roger-moore-obit-njs
After Live and Let Die, Moore continued to portray Bond in The Man with the Golden Gun (1974); The Spy Who Loved Me (1977); Moonraker (1979); For Your Eyes Only (1981); Octopussy (1983); and A View to a Kill (1985). Moore was the oldest actor to have played Bond – he was 45 in Live and Let Die (1973), and 58 when he announced his retirement on 3 December 1985.

20 biggest movies of the 2017 summer - Summer Movies release 2017

For some, the start of summer comes with warm weather or the end of school. For others, it’s big-budget spectacles coming to movie theaters.
Granted, blockbuster season seems to get earlier every year — X-Men, King Kong and Fast and Furious movies came out in March and April alone. But there are still plenty of big-name movies to come, now through August.


Here are some of the most notable wide-release summer movies

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” (now playing):
guardians-of-the-galaxy-vol-2

The Guardians of the Galaxy crew (Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Bradley Cooper as Rocket the raccoon, Vin Diesel as Baby Groot) return, with Kurt Russell joining as leader Peter Quill’s father Ego. Like the original, the Marvel film has scored praise for its humor and visuals.
You can find The Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Review here.
“Alien: Covenant” (Friday):
alien-covenant
After revisiting his classic “Alien” with “Prometheus,” Ridley Scott returns with this film featuring a new crew (Katherine Waterson, Billy Crudup, Danny McBride), android David (Michael Fassbender) and the titular alien. Hopefully Scott can improve on the script issues of “Prometheus” while retaining its visual splendor.
“Baywatch” (May 25):
baywatch
The ’90s David Hasselhoff/Pamela Anderson series gets its own attempt at a R-rated “21 Jump Street” cinematic reboot. It does at least have two charismatic comedic leads in The Rock and Zac Efron.

“Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” (May 26):
pirates-of-the-caribbean-dead-men-tell-no-tales
The fifth film in the series follows Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) and his battles with ghostly pirate hunter Armando Salazar (Javier Bardem). One wonders how many of these films we really need, though “Kon-Tiki” filmmakers Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg are a fairly inspired choice for director.
“Wonder Woman” (June 2):
wonder-woman
After appearing in “Batman v. Superman,” Amazon princess-superhero Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) gets her own film, where she enters World War I after encountering pilot Steve Trevor (Chris Pine). DC films have had a troubled start so far, but with its period setting and “Monster” director Patty Jenkins, this may be the one to turn that around.
“The Mummy” (June 9):
The-Mummy-2017
Another classic monster movie gets a gritty (and in this case, sandy) reboot as Tom Cruise squares off against a mummy princess (Sofia Boutella). The trailers have looked rough — not even counting the IMAX one released with missing audio — but Cruise has a generally good record on genre films.
“Rough Night” (June 16):
Rough-Night

The R-rated comedy follows a group of friends (Scarlett Johansson, Kate McKinnon, Zoe Kravitz, Ilana Glazer, Jillian Bell) who accidentally kill a male stripper during a Miami bachelorette weekend. Lucia Aniello (“Broad City”) writes and directs — here’s hoping it’s as funny as that show.
“All Eyez on Me” (June 16):
Rapper Tupac Shakur gets the “Straight Outta Compton” and “Notorious” treatment in this biopic. There’s certainly an interesting story there, particularly in his Black Panther upbringing, and lead Demetrius Shipp Jr. is a dead ringer for Shakur.
“Cars 3” (June 16):
The sequel follows racecar Lighting McQueen (Owen Wilson) as he has to contend with his aging and a hotshot new racer (Armie Hammer). The “Cars” films have been the weakest part of Pixar’s filmography, but perhaps this will be the one to change course.
“Transformers: The Last Knight” (June 21):
Michael Bay directs his fifth and supposedly final entry in the “Transformers” series, though apparently fourteen more are planned. At least this newest one sounds intriguingly bizarre, with King Arthur and World War II factoring into the plot.

“Baby Driver” (June 28):
“Hot Fuzz” director Edgar Wright helms this tale of music-loving getaway driver Baby (Ansel Elgort), who works for a crime lord (Kevin Spacey) and robbers (Jamie Foxx, Jon Hamm). Wright is one of today’s most inspired genre filmmakers, so it’ll be fun to see his first original film without his usual team of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.
“Spider-Man: Homecoming” (July 7):
Spider-Man gets his third cinematic version in 15 years, with Tom Holland playing the superhero navigating high school and battling The Vulture (Michael Keaton). Sam Raimi’s first two Spider-Man films arguably remain the superhero movie pinnacle, but this has a good cast and teen movie feel that could be fun.
“War for the Planet of the Apes” (July 14)
The new Planet of the Apes films have been a surprisingly effective cinematic reboot, with director Matt Reeves returning for this new one. Caesar (played in motion-capture by Andy Serkis) and the other apes face off against humans and their leader The Colonel (Woody Harrelson).
“Dunkirk” (July 21):

Acclaimed director Christopher Nolan tries his hand at a war film in this tale of Allied soldiers being evacuated from Dunkirk, France during World War II. The cast includes Oscar winner Mark Rylance, Tom Hardy, Kenneth Branagh and pop star Harry Styles in his acting debut.
“Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets” (July 21):
“The Fifth Element” director Luc Besson returns to the sci-fi epic world with this comic book adaptation about space agents Valerian and Laureline (Dane DeHaan, Cara Delevigne.) The most expensive French film ever made, the movie looks colorful and visually dazzling in the trailer.
“Atomic Blonde” (July 28):
Charlize Theron stars as a MI6 spy who comes to ’80s Berlin to locate a list of double agents and investigate another agent’s double murder. Director David Leitch was the part of the pair that made the standout “John Wick,” and “Atomic Blonde” has already earned praise for its action sequences.
“The Dark Tower” (August 4):
A longtime holdout in Stephen King adaptations, the fantasy western series “The Dark Tower” finally comes to screen. Idris Elba plays Roland Deschain, or The Gunslinger, who tries to get to the tower that houses all realities while fighting against The Man in Black (Matthew McConaughey).

“Detroit” (August 4):
“The Hurt Locker” and “Zero Dark Thirty” director Kathryn Bigelow brings another true story to screen, depicting a police raid on a hotel during Detroit’s 1967 riots. “Star Wars” actor John Boyega stars in the film, released on the event’s 50th anniversary.
“Annabelle: Creation” (August 11):
“Annabelle,” a “The Conjuring” spinoff about a haunted doll, gets its own prequel. That may seem like dubious material, but last year’s “Ouija” prequel “Ouija: Origin of Evil” was surprisingly good and Stephanie Sigman of “Miss Bala” gets another well-deserved leading role.
“Logan Lucky” (August 18):
Steven Soderbergh returns from retirement for this tale of two brothers (Channing Tatum and Adam Driver) attempting a robbery during a NASCAR race. The film sounds similar to Soderbergh’s “Ocean’s” films, with an ensemble including Daniel Craig, Hilary Swank and Seth MacFarlane.
