Canadian man gets parking ticket for 'car' made of snow
MONTREAL - A Canadian man made a fake car out of snow and got a real parking ticket. Montreal native Simon Laprise crafted a Back to the Future-style Delorean on the side of his street as part of a prank and he got the results he expected. "It was a beautiful day," Laprise told Vice. "So I decided to do something out of the mountain of snow, to do a little joke to the snow guys, and have fun sculpting a car. It's not my first one, just the first I do in the street on snow removal day." Laprise sculpted the Delorean to look like a life-size version of Marty McFly's ride had been parked throughout a snow storm for days. He even added indentions for the wheels and windows - and then threw a spare windshield wiper he found lying around for a special touch. The snow...

'The Shape of Water' wins top Producers Guild Award
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - Women and inclusivity continued to dominate the awards season conversation Sunday at the Producers Guild Awards, where Guillermo del Toro's fantastical romance "The Shape of Water" won the top award and honorees like Jordan Peele and Ava DuVernay gave rousing speeches to the room of entertainment industry leaders.The untelevised dinner and ceremony, held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Calif., is closely watched for its capacity to predict the eventual Oscar best picture winner, but this year the "awards race" seemed to be the secondary show to the more urgent questions facing the industry, including the crisis of representation and sexual misconduct.Del Toro was not present to accept the PGA's Darryl F. Zanuck Award for...

PARIS - French films doubled their global box office in 2017 thanks to the popularity in China of the sci-fi epic "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets", which was a flop in the West.The acclaimed low-budget horror, "Raw", about a vegetarian student who becomes a cannibal, by debut director Julia Ducournau, also helped to pull more than 80.5 million people into cinemas overseas to see French films, new figures showed."Valerian", the most expensive European movie ever made, seemed destined to be a financial disaster for its director and producer Luc Besson when it bombed in the US.American and British critics savaged its leading actors Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne, though they praised its special effects.But the maker of the "Fifth Element"...

Dozens dressed as Tyrannosaurus rex descend on public square
PORTLAND, Maine - His name means "king of the tyrant lizards," but sometimes Tyrannosaurus rex just wants to party. Make that many T. rexes. Hundreds of curious people descended on Portland's Monument Square on Sunday to observe a gathering of dinosaur lovers dressed as the science museum staple. There were dozens of T. rexes, and they danced, growled and milled around. One who struggled to navigate his costume walked around with his head protruding awkwardly from the dinosaur's gaping mouth. Valerie Sanborn and Alison Cyr set up the Cretaceous Period party through Facebook. A non-participant was summoned to snap a group photo because of T. rex's "little arm probz." There didn't appear to be any participants who arrived dressed as Marc Bolan, late singer...

Statute with limitations: Protesters yank down angel sculpture
ATHENS - Black-clad protesters in southern Athens have torn down a red sculpture shaped like an angel and broke its wings in a fresh act of violence against an artwork critics liken to Satan. Protests against the 8-meter high sculpture called Phylax, which in Greek means "guardian", have ranged from throwing white paint and spitting at it to attempting to exorcise it with a Greek priest sprinkling holy water. It was displayed in early December in a busy area in the coastal suburb of Palaio Faliro. Protesters have included some residents, religious conservatives and supporters of far right political groups. Late on Saturday night a group of 10-15 hooded persons tied it to the back of a truck and drove away, pulling it down, mayor of Palaio Faliro Dionysis Hatzidakis told Real FM....

Ex-Manson Family follower denied parole by Ca. Governor
LOS ANGELES - For the second year in a row California Gov. Jerry Brown overturned the parole recommendation to free Leslie Van Houten, who as a follower of cult leader Charles Manson took part in a notorious murder spree in 1969, media reports said late Saturday.In September, a California parole board recommended that Van Houten, 68, be freed. At age 19, she was the youngest member of the so-called Manson Family and was convicted of taking part in the brutal stabbing deaths of two of the seven homicides attributed to the cult.California Gov.

Motion-activated cameras capture animals being wild, weird
CHEYENNE, Wyo. - How does a bighorn sheep say "cheese?" Some charismatic critters caught by motion-detecting wildlife cameras seem to know how to strike a pose. But it's not just show business. As these devices get ever smaller, cheaper and more reliable, scientists across the US are using them to document elusive creatures like never before. "There's no doubt - it is an incredible tool to acquire data on wildlife," said Grant Harris, a US Fish and Wildlife Service wildlife biologist based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Remote cameras have photographed everything from small desert cats called ocelots to snow-loving lynx high in the Northern Rockies. Harris cited images of javelinas, pig-like desert mammals, and coatimundi, members of the raccoon family, captured at...

Brigitte Bardot
Brigitte Bardot: 'MeToo' actresses are 'hypocritical'
PARIS - Former French actress and sex symbol Brigitte Bardot said in an interview published Saturday that she thinks most actresses protesting sexual harassment in the film industry are "hypocritical" and "ridiculous" because many play "the teases" with producers to land parts.The star of "And God Created Woman" also said in the interview with weekly Paris-Match magazine that in her view, so many actresses are coming out with sexual misconduct allegations "so that we talk about them."Bardot, 83, is the second French film legend to distance herself from the worldwide protest movement against sexual misconduct, known as the #MeToo campaign. Last week, Catherine Deneuve signed a collective op-ed that said "insistent or clumsy hitting-on...
