1. “American Psycho” – do not use alcohol-based lotions.
   Who else but the glossy, successful banker Patrick Bateman could we have gotten some advice from. And even though much of what Patrick Bale’s character says makes your hair stand on end, there are pieces of advice that are worth heeding, especially when it comes to taking care of your appearance, to which he pays a lot of attention. So he recommends not to use alcohol lotions, because they are very drying for your skin. He also says that it is better to use a cream lotion for cleansing than foam, because the latter has a more aggressive effect on the skin.
2. “The Godfather” – add sugar to tomato paste.
   It is known that only Italians can make real pasta. Even if they are Mafiosi and their main interests are, to put it mildly, far from cooking, still Italians know a lot about delicious food. Clemenza advises Michael Corleone to add to tomato paste, in addition to tomatoes, oil and garlic, a little sugar, which mutes the sourness and fully reveals the taste of the sauce.
3. “Shallow grave” – you can’t pull the knife out of the wound.
   We’re used to most crime movies literally tearing a knife or a bullet out of an injured character with a jerk. However, in the finale of Danny Boyle’s debut film, we see Ewan McGregor’s character literally pinned to the floor with a knife, from whom the police are not in much of a hurry to extract the weapon. However, the characters do everything right: under no circumstances should you pull the knife out of the wound yourself, it will only make the situation worse, because the weapon serves as a kind of “plug” that does not allow the bleeding to intensify.
4. “The Scammer” – You can save a tooth that’s fallen out in milk.
   Rosamund Pike’s heroine, after a scrape in which she got her tooth knocked out, buys milk at the store and throws the tooth in it. This tipster really works. A knocked out tooth can be put back in place if you save the nerve endings and don’t let its structure get damaged. To do this, the tooth must remain moist, and the protein environment and proper acid-alkaline balance in the milk will buy you a few hours to get to the hospital and get your tooth back.
5. “Pretty Woman” – foot size is about the distance between your wrist and your elbow.
   The contemporary tale of Cinderella Vivienne, who manages to rise from the bottom of life and win the heart of charming rich man Edward, also teaches us a useful tip that can come in handy when choosing shoes when there is no time to try them on. Julia Roberts’ character says that the length of a person’s foot is equal to the distance between the wrist and the elbow.
6. “Die Hard” – how to recover from a flight.
   For many people, travel, and even that accompanied by a change of time zones, is not an easy ordeal. John McClain’s traveling companion gives him advice on how to quickly recover from a flight. You need to take off your shoes and walk barefoot on the carpet, clutching your toes. Although the Bruce Willis character will have a lot of trouble with this advice, for reasons beyond his control, it’s still a pretty good tip in life.
7. “Wild” – Travel shoes should be sized so you can wiggle your toes in them.
   The heroine of the autobiographical drama “Wild,” played by Reese Witherspoon, gets some helpful advice from an experienced traveler. For long hikes, you need to choose shoes in which you can freely wiggle your toes. And no wonder – after a few hours of travel, your feet swell, and then continuing your journey will not only be difficult, but possibly unsafe.
8. “Goodfellas” – Thinly sliced garlic literally melts in oil.
   Another cooking tip from the Martin Scorsese crime drama. When mob boss Paul Sorvino decides to cook dinner while in prison, for want of a knife he cuts the garlic with a razor blade. Cooked this way, it really does literally melt in oil, giving off all its flavor.

Focus Features has released the trailer for Revenge, the directorial debut of The Office star and co-creator B.J. Novak. He also played a leading role in the film, and also wrote the script.

Novak played the successful and confident radio host Ben Manalowitz (Novak), who flies from New York to Texas for the funeral of a girl named Abilene. Ben had slept with Abilene several times in the past, but her family mistakenly thought he was her boyfriend. While in Abilene’s hometown, Ben finds herself under the wing of her brother, Ty (Boyd Holbrook). Ti is sure that in fact Abilene did not die from an overdose of synthetic drugs, but was murdered. There is no evidence to support the violent death theory, but Ben agrees to help Ty conduct his own investigation and record a podcast about it. Unbeknownst to T, though, what Ben is really trying to show in this podcast is how people are willing to believe in conspiracy theories rather than accepting reality.

Along with Novak and Holbrook, Revenge stars Dove Cameron (T’s sister), Issa Rae (Ben’s boss), Ashton Kutcher, J. Smith-Cameron, Isabella Amara and Analee Tipton.
Revenge will be released in North America on July 29. The film will have its world premiere on June 12 at the New York Tribeca Film Festival.

Corden was initially skeptical of the idea, especially when he learned that he would be flying a World War II-era plane. “You’re not a pilot, you’re an actor. With all due respect, you played a lawyer in A Few Good Men, but I wouldn’t want you representing me in court, okay? You’re convincing me to take off in a 75-year-old airplane with someone who’s not a pilot,” he clarified, before dashing off toward the desert.

Cruz eventually managed to talk his buddy into it, but warned him before the flight that if the engine caught fire, he would “drop the lantern, raise the nose 45 degrees, and then flip” and eventually “eject” Corden from the plane so he could use the parachute.

However, the surprises didn’t end there. On the second day of training, the TV host had to go through an equally harsh ordeal.

Recall that Tom Cruise is famous for performing the most difficult and dangerous stunts by himself in his movies.

After the fall of Asgard and the events of The Final Destiny, Thor tries to find inner peace, but is hindered by Gorr’s threat to destroy the gods. Thor turns to Korg, Valkyrie and former lover Jane Foster for help, and teams up with the Guardians of the Galaxy. The trailer also hints at a possible symbiote appearance.

Director Taika Waititi previously called the film “the craziest thing he’s ever done,” hinting that it will include many fan-favorite storylines and a love story.

Based on the Stan Lee and Jason Aaron comic books, the film’s script is written by Waititi and Jennifer Katin Robinson themselves. “Thor 4: Love and Thunder” is produced by Kevin Feigy and executive produced by Victoria Alonso and Todd Hallowell.

The action of “Elvis” will cover twenty years – the film will show how from a talented but unknown young artist Elvis Presley (Austin Butler) turned into a world-class star.

In addition to Butler and Hanks, Elvis starred Olivia DeJong, Daker Montgomery, Helen Thompson, Cody Smith-McPhee, David Wenham, Luke Bracey, Richard Roxburgh, Xavier Samuel and others.
