‘The Little Mermaid’: Halle's Musical Debut Rockets to $400+ Million Dollar Box Office
Halle's belting, crystal clear notes, and warm tone infused something into this blockbuster that I thoroughly enjoy.

A typical melodrama with a rich young man, Petros, who, as usual, falls in love with a poor girl, Vana, and naturally thinks of marrying her despite the objections of his family, who, as always, are opposed to such a possibility. And as if all that weren't enough, everything conspires against them and their life becomes unbearable. However, as usual, our two young lovers draw courage from their love and faith in life, and overcome all obstacles. The ending is happy and joyful, like a promising new year...

Even after a history changing event, the 93rd Oscars proved it always had the space for more inclusivity in its award ceremony. But it this enough to change the boycott?
“Trust your gut" is one of the most common pieces of advice you’ll receive during your lifetime. And as a person inclined to trust my intuition above all else, it’s the most common advice I find myself giving in real life and in my online socialising. But what happens when your gut is trying to warn you that something is seriously wrong without you being able to identify what triggered it in the first place? How can you act on a feeling or make it go away when you don’t have a clue about what could be wrong? How can you trust your intuition when you don’t know what makes it act out in the first place?
