Liz Sargent‘s moving short film “Take Me Home” packs a punch and plenty of heart in just 15 minutes of screen time. The film follows a cognitively disabled woman (Anna Sargent) and her sister (Jeena Yi) who must learn to communicate after the untimely death of their mother. Gold Derby caught a screening of the film and grabbed a chat with writer-director Sargent, who explained that the genesis of this rooted in her family history.
“I grew up as the middle child of eleven, my parents had 4 biological children, then adopted 7 more, 6 of whom are Korean and several with different disabilities. In our family, everyone is the same because everyone is different. Anna is the youngest sibling, she was born at 2 lbs, developed a cyst on her brain and was left with various disabilities such as having very little short-term memory.

On October 20, 2023, “Nyad” received a limited theatrical release from Netflix before it hits the streamer November 3. It tells the remarkable true story of athlete Diana Nyad (played by Oscar nominee Annette Bening) who, at the age of 60 and with the help of her best friend and coach Bonnie Stoll (played by Oscar winner Jodie Foster), commits to achieving her life-long dream: a 110-mile open ocean swim from Cuba to Florida.
Since premiering at the 50th Telluride Film Festival in September, the film has charmed critics to an 82% freshness rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The critics consensus reads, “’Nyad’ is an uplifting sports biopic strictly on the merits of its story, but it’s the outstanding performances from Annette Bening and Jodie Foster that really keep this picture afloat.” The film was directed by Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin, with a script by Julia Cox.The ensemble cast includes Rhys Ifans,...

It’s a fatal flaw and an inherent paradox of most biopics that they reduce a one-of-a-kind personality to an easily legible confluence of social forces and remarkable achievements to a linear series of causes and effects. Nyad, directed by Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin and written by Julia Cox, is unable to buck this trend, though it gains a degree of novelty from a subject whose fascinating life appears to be a confrontation with failure as much as a story of triumph. The film recounts the efforts of endurance swimmer Diane Nyad (Annette Bening) to complete a record-breaking swim from Florida to Cuba, a lifelong dream that she seeks to bring to fruition in her 60s, some four decades after her unsuccessful first attempt.
After a brief opening sequence that recaps her younger years with real-life footage from newsreels and her regular chat show appearances, we’re introduced...

The loftier and more dangerous the goal, the finer the line that separates the Guinness Book of World Records from the Darwin Awards. At a certain point, surviving is the only real difference. Do-or-die marathon swimmer Diana Nyad dreamed of swimming from Cuba to Florida. That’s 110 miles of unpredictable open ocean. Prior to her, the only ones to have done it used a shark cage to shield them from life-threatening aquatic predators. Diana first tried and failed when she was 28. Decades later, she decided to go again, failing three more times.
If Diana Nyad sounds stubborn, you have no idea. Directed by “Free Solo” helmers Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin, making the leap from documentaries to fiction with a fact-based narrative that feels perfectly suited to their skill set, the Netflix movie “Nyad” is a portrait of obsession. In a performance that feels every bit as committed as the athlete she’s depicting,...

Tony Goldwyn will return to Broadway in Ivo van Hove’s much-anticipated production of Network, joining Bryan Cranston and Tatiana Maslany in the stage adaptation of the 1976 Oscar-winning film.
Goldwyn will play Max Schumacher, the TV exec in the midst of a mid-life crisis played by the Oscar-nominated William Holden in the film. British actor Douglas Henshall originated the role in the West End production of the play last year.
Known to TV audiences for playing President Fitzgerald Grant in Shonda Rhimes’ Scandal and next to be seen onscreen in Netflix’s Chambers with Uma Thurman, Goldwyn has a long stage history. Among his credits: Theresa Rebeck’s The Water’s Edge, Craig Lucas’ The Dying Gaul, Holiday at Circle in the Square opposite Laura Linney, and an Obie-winning performance in The Sum of Us. He most recently appeared on Broadway in the 2010 revival of Promises, Promises.
