From her Lynchian beginnings in Blue Velvet to escaping an errant T-Rex in Jurassic Park, to becoming the superpower that is Renata Klein in Big Little Lies, Laura Dern has perhaps one of the broadest ranges of any actress in our time. And this season once again showcases her dynamism, as she digs into two vastly differing roles: the spiky divorce lawyer Nora Fanshaw in Noah Baumbach’s Marriage Story, and the socially-conscious, soft-hearted matriarch Marmee March in Greta Gerwig’s Little Women. In Marriage Story, Dern delivers a skin-stripping feminist monologue that’s had viewers cheering, while as Marmee, she brings depth and edge to Louisa May Alcott’s beloved literary character.

Five Bits of Guidance to Up-and-Coming Psychologists
In my position as a psychology professor at SUNY New Paltz, I get to help cultivate the minds and pathways of lots of bright young scholars looking to study psychology and to get into a career related to their studies. While every day is not a birthday party, I have an awesome job – and the best part of it is seeing these bright young people develop their skills, knowledge, and confidence – and watching them lead careers of their own where they are able to make positive marks on the field and on the lives of individuals. 15 years ago, when parents of incoming students would meet with me at events like Open House and such, they would always look me in the eye and say “Hey! Is my son or daughter going to get a JOB after majoring in psychology? Huh!?!?” … just.like.that.! Well you know, my answer used to be something like, “well, hopefully! There are various graduate programs related to the field – and if they get into one of these programs there … [Read more...] about Five Bits of Guidance to Up-and-Coming Psychologists
See Brett Eldredge’s Suave ‘Merry Little Christmas’ on ‘GMA’
Backed by a four-piece horn section and a swinging core band, Brett Eldredge performed “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” on Good Morning America on Friday. The holiday staple appears on Eldredge’s first-ever holiday album, Glow, one of many Christmas projects from country artists this year. Eldredge, however, leaves behind any twang for Glow, and for his suave appearance on GMA. Instead, he fully embraces his reputation as one of Nashville’s preeminent crooners, lingering over notes like Sinatra over a glass of Jack. It’s a dazzling bit of performance, especially in the harsh light of a morning talk show. The Illinois-born singer has committed to his holiday side hustle wholeheartedly, releasing a series of irreverent videos, including the wild “Christmas Cooking With Brett,” up until December 16th (watch the video below). Eldredge, who was nominated for Male Vocalist of the Year at last year’s ACM Awards, will hit the road with … [Read more...] about See Brett Eldredge’s Suave ‘Merry Little Christmas’ on ‘GMA’
