On Sunday, the chants continued, as thousands of crew workers gathered for a Los Angeles rally ahead of Monday’s bargaining talks with Hollywood studios and streamers, the Alliance of Motion Pictures and Television Producers. With one of Hollywood’s longest actors’ strikes to date behind us, Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists…

In June 1943, 36 B-17 Flying Fortress bombers in the U.S. Army Air Force 100th Bombardment Group arrived at an airbase in England, each with a flight crew of 10 men, all of them there to battle Nazi Germany in World War II. Four months later, 34 of the 36 Flying Fortresses had been shot down, giving the group its nickname: The Bloody 100th. If that sounds like a compelling story to you, well, Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks thought so, too. Along with their fellow executive producer Gary Goetzman, they grabbed the rights…
