Writer/director David Ferino’s feature directorial debut, “Wardcliffe,” starring Joel McKinnon Miller and Shane Coffey.
Inspired by real events, Ferino’s script takes place over the course of a single day as Dennis (Miller) and his son Ronnie (Coffey) quarantine together during the 2020 pandemic lockdown. Decades of tension escalate to a boiling point when the two find themselves confined inside. And as the outside world is seized by confusion and terror, the gulf between the men becomes ever more pronounced, and ever more destructive.
“Wardcliffe” is produced and independently financed by Roger M. Mayer through his production company, Brooklyn Reptyle.
“When I first heard of this news event in 2020, I knew it had the right criteria for a first feature. The film could be made on a small production scale, but with big emotional weight. It’s a tragedy that encapsulates the heightened anxiety we collectively shared throughout the pandemic,...

Pro Football Hall of Famer Jim Brown, the unstoppable running back who retired at the peak of his brilliant career to become an actor as well as a prominent civil rights advocate during the 1960s, has died. He was 87.
A spokeswoman for Brown’s family said he passed away peacefully in his Los Angeles home on Thursday night with his wife, Monique, by his side.
One of the greatest players in football history and one of the game’s first superstars, Brown was chosen the NFL’s Most Valuable Player in 1965 and shattered the league’s record books in a short career spanning 1957-65.
We are heartbroken by the passing of the legendary Jim Brown.

Owner Paul Brown was absolutely stunned by an item that walked into his auction house on "Auction Kings." Todd brought in an old family heirloom, but it had so much more historical significance than Todd fully realized. Todd explained that the desk he'd brought in actually dated back to President Thomas Jefferson.
"My family purchased his home in Poplar Forest, Virginia, in the 1840s, and I inherited it about three years ago," Todd explained.
"If it is what it appears to be, it’s by far, hands-down, nothing even comes close, the best piece I’ve ever had in my possession," Paul said.
And it was exactly as it appeared to be. The seller was hoping for $6,000 to set up a college fund for his 6-year-old daughter. At auction, the piece did much better than that, selling for $65,000. That should make for a great start to the college fund, as...
