“Hangover put me on a whole other level… it changed my life in many respects ” Bradley Cooper has high standards. As a young boy growing up in Philadelphia, he acquired a love of film from the moment his father began taking him to see movies at the cinema near their home. “We lived right across from a movie theatre in Philadelphia and my father was a true cinephile,” Cooper recalled. “He turned me on to all those 1970s auteur movies. I loved those movies so much. I would just sort of live in the fantasy of whatever the feeling was after the movie was over. Living next to a movie theatre as a kid... that was utopia.” That was the beginning of a process that set him in pursuit…

I’m loving your streaming coverage because I only watch Netflix and Stan. I enjoy watching all the telenovelas, such as La Doña and Sin Senos Sí Hay Paraíso, as I’m studying Spanish. Can you interview some actors from those shows? My fave stars are Aracely Arámbula, Ximena Duque, Fabián Rios and Carmen Villalobos. Thank you! S. Henderson, Marrickville, NSW KEEPING IT REAL I don’t understand people’s fascination with reality-TV programs like Married At First Sight. Does anyone seriously believe that these people genuinely sign up to find true love on the show? Clearly they are on these kinds of shows chasing fame rather than love. I would much rather invest my time watching people with real talent, like actors or contestants on singing or cooking shows. J. Higgins, Islington, NSW…
