Reply to comment by D1ddyKon9 in How stunt woman guarantees perfect timing by longhegrindilemna
It was something like this done in the Exorcist, which broke the child’s back. I think she partially recovered. But these cable stunts can be really dangerous. I bet it’s scary as hell for the stunt person.

Ahem, crypto.com center.
Although I doubt that holds up much longer. I hope it doesn’t.

Reply to comment by auntiepink in Many countries have a "hidden welfare state" for incumbent homeowners, as governments subsidize homeowners through the tax system. The homeownership welfare state is strongest in the US and other Anglophone countries, but weakest in the Scandinavian countries. by smurfyjenkins
It’s just a problem from a societal standpoint that people with less money than you, have to pay more for housing because they can’t afford to own. So that benchmark of wealth needed to be a homeowners becomes a class divide. And the stronger those programs are the worse the divide becomes.

Reply to Leonardo DiCaprio has only worked with 3 directors more than once: Baz Luhrmann (2x), Quentin Tarantino (2x), Martin Scorsese (6x). by jankyeyes
Not too surprising. I’m fact, I’m surprised he has done 6 with Scorsese. Most blockbuster movies these days have first time directors. The executive producers usually hire someone cheap who will do whatever they want without a big ego. That’s why there are so few big name directors.
