FOR A GOOD CAUSE
Fashion designer, stylist, entrepreneur,
philanthropist (she’s a founding board
member of the Kellner Pediatric Liver
Foundation), mom — and former Real
Housewife of New York City — Heather
Thompson (her father-in-law, the late
Rabbi Alexander Schindler, was presi-
dent of the Union of the American Hebrew
Congregations) will be the featured speak-
er at the Emily Stillman Foundation’s
Spring Sensation Tuesday, April 19, which
will include lunch and boutique shopping.
Emily Stillman, who died of meningococ-
cal Serogroup B as a college sophomore,
has inspired her mom, Alicia Stillman,
to lobby and educate for meningococcal
vaccinations and organ donation. Tam-O-
Jericho (Kevin Costner),
a dangerous death-row
inmate. The CIA hopes that
he will complete Pope’s
mission. The procedure
also implants Pope’s deep
love for his wife and fam-
ily and his strong sense
of responsibility. Israeli
actress Gal Gadot, 30, who
plays Pope’s wife, meets
with Jericho to reinforce
Russell
his new sense of purpose.
Tommy Lee Jones plays the
surgeon, with Gary Oldman as the head of
the CIA.
Gadot, of course, is now famous as
Wonder Woman, and while Batman v
Superman didn’t get great reviews — her
stunning red-carpet dress for the film’s
premiere led W magazine to recently com-
ment: “It’s Gal Gadot’s world and the rest of
us are just living in it.”
In Dazed and Confused (1993), director/
writer Richard Linklater captured “stoner”
high-school life in the 1970s. His new film,
Everybody Wants Some!!, is described as
a “spiritual sequel” to Dazed. It follows a
group of college freshmen in the 1980s as
they navigate their way through the ups-
and-downs of unsupervised adulthood
over one long weekend. All the male char-

acters are also college base-
ball players. Co-stars include
Zoey Deutch, 21, and Wyatt
Russell, 29. Russell, the son
of Goldie Hawn, 70, and
actor Kurt Russell, played in
the top level of minor league
pro hockey until injuries
(2010) led him to retire from
hockey and go into the fam-
ily business — acting. Back
when he was playing hock-
ey, he told the Jewish Sports
Review that he identified as
Jewish, but wasn’t religious.
Jon Favreau, 49, directed a new Disney
animated version of The Jungle Book, the
Rudyard Kipling classic. It is billed as a
re-imagining of the 1967 Disney version
that is more true than the 1967 film to the
original Kipling stories. Jewish thespians
who provide important character voices
include: Favreau (Pygmy Hog); Scarlett
Johansson, 31 (Kaa); the late Garry
Shandling (Ikki) and Detroit-area native
Sam Raimi, 56 (Giant Squirrel). Best known
as a director, Raimi takes occasional acting
jobs. Many big-time actors and directors
with children (Raimi has five with his wife,
Gillian Greene, 48) readily agree to be in
films they can watch with their children
and grandchildren.
