After a brief fakeout for Independence Day last month, the ladies of “The View” are now officially on summer break. And yes, it’ll be a bit longer until you can return to the table with them again.
Friday marked the Season 27 finale, and it came with a bit of news from host Sunny Hostin. To wrap up the show, she announced that “after 10 years and 2,143 episodes, this is also the last episode we’ll do from this studio.” Indeed, when the show returns for Season 28, it’ll be at a brand new table in a brand new studio.
The episode also welcomed Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg to the show, where he picked apart Donald Trump’s racist comments about Vice President Kamala Harris.
But if you’re here, you’re probably wondering when exactly the Season 28 return will be. Well, worry not, we have that answer. It’ll be Tuesday,...

“Hitch Finding His Way”
By Raymond Benson
While there are many DVD collections (and VHS anthologies before that) of the early British material directed by Alfred Hitchcock in the 1920s and most of the 1930s, there are very few that contain decent transfers. The silent films, until recently, all existed in extremely poor quality, as so did most of the British sound pictures. Companies like The Criterion Collection and Kino Lorber have begun to finally restore these classics in high definition Blu-ray.
The new 2-disk Kino Lorber set, British International Pictures Collection, contains a handful of these early movies—The Ring (1927), The Farmer’s Wife (1928), Champagne (1928), The Manxman (1929), and the only sound feature in the bunch, The Skin Game (1931). They all display Hitch finding his way, exploring the possibilities of the medium, and trying to find his directorial “voice.” He was not yet the “Master of Suspense,” even though he...

Hitchcock's silents are now on the Memory of the World register – I can think of five others that deserve the same recognition
If, when you consider our national heritage, you think of murder, guilt, sex and cheeky humour – well, somebody out there agrees with you. The decision to add Alfred Hitchcock's nine surviving silent movies to Unesco's UK Memory of the World register puts his early work on a cultural par with the Domesday Book and Field Marshal Douglas Haig's war diaries – also selected for the list this year.
The nine silents were all directed by Hitchcock in the 1920s and include better-known films in the director's classic thriller mode such as The Lodger and Blackmail as well as comedies (Champagne, The Farmer's Wife) a boxing movie (The Ring) and dramas (The Pleasure Garden, Downhill, Easy Virtue and the lush, rustic romance The Manxman). The collection was nominated by the BFI,...

Filmmaker David Sutherland insists that he's a portraitist, not a journalist, but in its intimate focus his work tends to reveal profound realities about poverty in rural regions of the United States. His 1998 "Frontline" documentary "The Farmer's Wife" examined the looming extinction of the family farm by way of the tough times and troubled marriage of a young couple trying to maintain their own small holding in Nebraska, attracting an audience of millions with its gripping domestic dramas. 2006's "Country Boys" followed a pair of teenage boys coming of age in eastern Kentucky, illuminating the many challenges facing the two subjects as they vowed to seek better futures for themselves than the hardship-filled actualities from which they came. Sutherland's latest film is "Kind Hearted Woman," which is airing on two parts on PBS, presented by "Frontline" in partnership with "Independent Lens." The first half was broadcast last night, April 1st,...

Sure, Sunday tends to be overcrowded with high-end TV, including "Game of Thrones," "Shameless," "Vikings" and the back-this-week "Mad Men," but what to watch the rest of the time? Every Monday, we bring you five noteworthy highlights from the other six days of the week. "Kind-Hearted Woman" Monday, Apr. 1 at 9pm on PBS Filmmaker David Sutherland has documented life in corners of the U.S. often left off screen in long-form "Frontline" docs "The Farmer's Wife" (1998) and "Country Boys" (2006). His new film "Kind Hearted Woman," coproduced by "Frontline" in partnership with "Independent Lens," is a portrait of Robin Charboneau, an Oglala Sioux woman living in North Dakota struggling to overcome a past of abuse and make a life for herself and her two children. Over five hours that chronicle several years in Charboneau's life, Sutherland examines many of the issues that affect Native communities, including higher instances of alcoholism and unemployment.

"The Walking Dead" will no longer exist in a world separate from our own starting later this month. The folks at the two U.S. Universal Studios theme parks have taken it upon themselves to bring the post-zombie apocalypse world of AMC's hit show to life in their Halloween Horror Nights mazes, "The Walking Dead: Dead Alive." Don't expect an appearance from Rick, Daryl or Glenn here, though -- this time, we're the survivors.
MTV News had the chance to visit the "Walking Dead" inspired mazes at Universal Hollywood and Universal Orlando last week. Though they're both taken from the same source material, the two Halloween Horror Nights installments will provide different experiences for guests. Here's our detailed rundown of the Universal Hollywood maze, where they've put a lot of effort into recreating Bicycle Girl, the Well Walker and the tank Rick holes up in for your enjoyment.
Warning: several gruesome,...

Everyone knows the classic Hitchcocks: Psycho, The Birds, The Lady Vanishes. But the summer-long retrospective also includes wonderful films you may not have heard much about; here's 10 often-overlooked Hitchcocks you won't want to miss
Born in Leytonstone, east London, but destined to be the toast of Hollywood, Alfred Hitchcock learned the business of film-making in London, not La. The business at that time was silent cinema, and the young Hitchcock had a full apprenticeship.
He spent years at Gainsborough Pictures in Islington, north London (or Famous Players-Lasky as it was when he arrived) crafting caption cards, editing scripts and designing sets before he was given the chance to direct his own films. His early features are far more accomplished, and more personal, than many a director's debut. And if you're familiar with his famous sound movies, you'll find much in them that prefigures his most celebrated suspense-filled sequences.

Unarguably one of the world's most demanding "ascetist" auteurs, and certainly North America's most dedicated "art film" provocateur, Carlos Reygadas makes movies that slow your heart rate and raise your anxiety levels at the same time. His observational gaze isn't just patient rigor, but a brand of glacial, creepy stillness, chilled further by occasional moments of graphic sex, slow exploratory camera moves that seem to perform the impossible, and a colossal sense of unspoken crisis. "Japón" (2002), "Battle in Heaven" (2005) and "Silent Light" (2007) are, most of all, living mysteries, existing scene by scene several left steps away from their own "real" stories, filled with spooky signs of cosmic ruin, and focused on guilt so epic it threatens to crack the sky.
Reygadas hasn't found much of an audience in the U.S. yet, and "Silent Light" didn't help win him one -- after the dismaying scald of his previous movie, the...
