Director Brad Silberling’s An Ordinary Man Takes on a Notorious Bosnian War Criminal

Filmmaker Brad Silberling first became fascinated with natural-born monsters in 2008 when he learned about Radovan Karadžić and Ratko Mladić. Known as “The Butcher of Bosnia,” General Mladić commanded the massacre of some 8,000 Muslims in Srebrenica during the Yugoslav civil wars. Following the atrocities, Maleic and politician Karadžić, aided by loyalists, hid from Hague-based International Criminal Court prosecutors for 14 years, shuffled about by loyalists through a succession of low-rent Belgrade safe houses.

Blockers Actor Jimmy Bellinger Promises This Isn’t the Prom Night You Remember

Parents have long agonized over the question of when their child is old enough to make mature decisions. The real answer is that it’s different for everybody, but that doesn’t make parenting any easier. There is a lot of worrying and well-intended intervention that happens when kids come of age.

The Beyond Skyline Composer on Making Aliens Sound as Big as They Look

Captain America: Civil War star Frank Grillo will not be appearing in the Avengers’ showdown against Thanos later this month, but he’s been busy battling aliens of his own. Grillo leads the human fight against an intergalactic invasion in Beyond Skyline. The film is something of a family drama with Mark (Grillo) trying to reconnect with his son Trent (Jonny Weston) during the chaos.

Our Favorite Moments from Chadwick Boseman’s Saturday Night Live Debut

If you don’t want your crush on Chadwick Boseman to turn into a full-fledged obsession, it would be best to avoid his Saturday Night Live performance.

Thanos Demands No Avengers: Infinity War Spoilers, Or Else

The first rule of Fight Club is: you do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is you do not give away the twist ending. Most true fans make efforts to avoid spoilers, but sometimes the filmmakers themselves get involved. Alfred Hitchcock bought every copy of Robert Bloch’s Psycho to keep audiences from reading that Norman’s mother was dead. Now, the Avengers: Infinity War directors have their own method for dealing with blabbermouth moviegoers.
