Venezuela has the largest proven oil reserves in the world. It was once so rich that Concorde used to fly from Caracas to Paris. But in the last three years its economy has collapsed. Hunger has gripped the nation for years. Now, it’s killing people and animals that are dying of starvation. The Venezuelan government knows, but won’t admit it!!! Four in five Venezuelans live in poverty. People queue for hours to buy food. Much of the time they go without. People are also dying from a lack of medicines. Inflation is at 82,766% and there are warnings it could exceed one million per cent by the end of this year. Venezuelans are trying to get out. The UN says 2.3 million people have fled the country - 7% of the population.

Netflix inks pact with Weinsteins


Netflix inks pact with Weinsteins

'The Artist' included in multiyear deal

By JILL GOLDSMITH
Netflix and The Weinstein Company Tuesday announced a new multi-year licensing agreement, their first, to make foreign language, documentary and certain other movies from TWC exclusively available for Netflix members in the U.S. to watch instantly.
"The Artist" will make its pay TV debut exclusively on Netflix rather than on traditional premium cable.
The pic, written and directed by Michel Hazanavicius and starring Jean Dujardin and Berenice Bejo, has been sweeping the awards season, including the Golden Globe for Best Picture/Comedy or Musical and Best Picture Awards from the Producers Guild of America, British Academy of Film and Television, the London Critics Circle and NY Film Critics Circle.
Also making its pay TV premiere on Netflix is "Undefeated," nominated for a 2012 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature. Pic follows players on a Memphis, Tenn. inner-city high school football team as it attempts to win its first playoff game in the school's history.
A diverse slate of TWC specialty films will appear exclusively on Netflix within one year of their theatrical release, including World War II drama "Sarah's Key," "Intouchables," "W.E.," "Coriolanus" and "Bully."
Terms of the deal, the first between TWC and Netflix, weren't disclosed.
Thanks Variety!



Have a great day ☼
