Nestled between a New York City church and a small Mediterranean restaurant, the Rattlestick Theater, on Waverly Place, conjures up powerful memories for Jeremy Strong. "I mean, everything has changed, and nothing has changed," he said, while visiting along with Turner Classic Movies host and "Sunday Morning" contributor Ben Mankiewicz.
Back in 2011, Strong was a struggling actor, appearing there as an Afghanistan war veteran in the off-Broadway play "Paraffin."
"This was, like, a 60-seat theater, where the bathroom is on the stage, and you could smell the falafel stand downstairs, but it didn't matter," he said.
On April 15, 1874 – 150 years ago – the first Impressionist exhibition opened on Rue du Capucines in Paris, featuring works by 30 artists, including Paul Cézanne, Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Hosted by the "Anonymous Society of Painters, Sculptors, and Engravers, etc.," it was founded in response to the Paris Salon, the annual, government-sponsored exhibition that would frequently reject the works of the rising artists.
Alec Baldwin had "no control" over his emotions on the set of a film where the cinematographer was shot dead, according to the prosecutor who has charged him with manslaughter. The Hollywood star was holding a Colt .45 during the preparation for a scene in the budget Western "Rust" when the gun went off, killing Halyna Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza.
