STREAMING CATCH-UP;
JEWISH DOCTORS WHO
ARE COVID-19 EXPERTS
On the Rocks is a “drame-
dy” which opened in a few
theaters on Oct. 2 (to be
Oscar-eligible) and began
streaming on Apple TV Plus
on Oct. 23. Reviews were
mostly favorable, with a few
raves. But there were some
thumbs-down by respected
critics.
Rashida Jones, 44,
co-stars as a wife who sus-
pects her husband (Marlon
Wayans) is cheating. Jones’
father (Bill Murray) insists
they investigate. The sup-
porting cast includes Jenny
Slate, 38, and Barbara
Bain, 89 (you might remem-
ber Bain as a co-star of
Mission Impossible, the ’60s
TV series. Most of her MI
scenes were with the late
Martin Landau, then her
real-life husband).
The mockumentary
comedy Borat (2006),
starring Sacha Baron
Cohen, 49, in the title role
as an antisemitic reporter
from Central Asia, was
a huge hit. Cohen was
determined that a sequel
about current American
events would be released
before the election, and it
was released on Oct. 23
on Amazon Prime. The
new film (short tile: Borat
Subsequent Moviefilm) finds
Borat spoofing an array of
conservative targets, includ-
ing Mike Pence and Rudy
Giuliani.
Several readers have
asked me if any of the phy-
sicians who are developing
vaccines for COVID-19, and/
or frequently appear on
news programs to discuss
COVID-19, are Jewish.
Dr. Tal Zaks, 54, is an
Israel-born and trained
oncologist who has been
the chief medical officer
for Moderna Therapeutics
since 2015. He is the “point
guy” on Moderna’s COVID-
19 vaccine development.
Dr. Peter Hotez, 62, is
the director of the Texas
Children’s Hospital Center
for Vaccine Development.
He frequently appears on
MSNBC and CNN. He has
been working with India on
a COVID-19 vaccine.
Dr. Scott Gottlieb, 48,
an internist, served as FDA
commissioner from 2017-
2019.
Dr. Irwin Redlener,
76, a pediatrician, is a
pandemic expert at the
National Center for Disaster
Preparedness at the Earth
Institute at Columbia
University.
Dr. Steven Atlas, 65,
a radiologist, joined the
White House’s COVID-19
task force in August. His
embrace of “herd immunity”
and his disparagement of
masks and social distancing
have caused a firestorm of
controversy.
