The popularity of Dry January has gone up and up in recent years. The sentiment is sound – December is a big month for drinking and eating so it’s best to start a new year with a bit of a reset.

But why not watch movies about people doing the exact opposite of your healthy choices to make the countdown to February just a bit easier?

From classic party flicks like “Animal House” to more modern hits like “Superbad” and “Everybody Wants Some,” there is a specific genre of film that will make you yearn for a night out (or in) with friends and few drinks.

Below are the movies to check out in January to live vicariously through while you start the new year on a healthy note.

One Week After the Fires, It’s All Ashes in Altadena | Photos https://www.thewrap.com/altadena-eaton-fire-photo-essay/ Fri, 17 Jan 2025 14:15:00 +0000 https://www.thewrap.com/?p=7685097 “This last week all I've wanted to do is knock on my neighbor's doors and see if they're OK. But of course, there are no doors,” Kirsten Schaffer tells TheWrap

The post One Week After the Fires, It’s All Ashes in Altadena | Photos appeared first on TheWrap.

It was after dark. The power was out. And fires were already raging on the west side of Los Angeles. 

Kirsten Schaffer saw a pink glow from her kitchen window in her Altadena home on the evening of Jan. 7. She grabbed her computer, her family’s passports, her 15-year-old daughter Olive and left. 

By 8:30 p.m. that night, the Eaton Canyon fire had spread to over 200 acres. By Wednesday morning the flames had burned up over 1,000 acres, including Schaffer’s house that she shared with her wife Linda Kennedy and two daughters — now left in a pile of ashes

“This last week all I’ve wanted to do is knock on my neighbor’s doors and see if they’re OK,” Schaffer, the executive director of Women in Film, told TheWrap. “But of course, there are no doors.” 

Every house on Schaffer’s cul-de-sac burned to the ground. Remnants of chimneys, melted picket fences, metal patio chairs and the corpses of cars are all that remain on her street. 

As of Thursday afternoon, the Eaton fire had devastated 14,117 acres of land in the canyon, which spills into the neighboring community of Altadena. At least 27 people have died as a result of the Los Angeles fires, 17 in the Eaton fire alone. CalFire estimates more than 7,000 structures were decimated by the Eaton fire.

While Pacific Palisades, the site of a even larger blaze last week, is a suburb of Hollywood powerbrokers and A-list actors and directors, Altadena is home to its own distinctive and vibrant community of artists and entertainment professionals. Schaffer, who runs a nonprofit that advocates for parity and career advancement for women in film, has several friends who were affected by the unrelenting fires — producers, designers, writers and documentarians alike.

The area has historically been a haven for Black residents. After the “White Flight” of the 1960s, Black families bought property in Altadena; now the community is 58% comprised of people of color. 

 “Altadena is an historic Black community, we all need to work together to ensure equitable distribution of resources and to protect this legacy,” Schaffer said. 

The nonprofit executive initially fell in love with the neighborhood after her two daughters went to pre-school at Village Playgarden, a holistic farm and early childhood program, which has since burned down. She and her wife’s adopted daughter is Black, and it was important to the couple to immerse their children in their community.

While diversity was the initial driving factor for the couple, in the nearly two years since they have lived in their house, they found so much more. Nearly half of the families in her neighborhood also worked in entertainment. 

“Living there felt like we found our people,” she said. “Because of the true diversity of this community across race and class, and a rich arts community that includes so many people who work in film and television.”

Though Schaffer’s home is all but gone, she and Kennedy are committed to rebuilding not only their home but the community they love. 

When she visited her property for the first time only a day after it went up in flames, Schaffer said she saw her stone Buddha sitting upright against the rubble. The head had broken off, so she took it with her as a “souvenir.” Planters in her front yard looked more like bathtubs filled with ash

Her metal patio furniture did survive. She remembered nights with Kennedy, sitting in the presence of their 200-year-old oak tree (which did survive) and listening to her neighbors play music from their homes.  

“There are three different homes [in the neighborhood] that we could hear people play music. We could hear Bennie Maupin playing his jazz saxophone,” she said. “At night, sometimes we would just sit outside and listen to him play.”

TheWrap was able to capture scenes from the devastating Altadena fires, including Schaffer’s home. Read on for a full gallery:

David Lynch in Photos: Milestones With Laura Dern, Cannes With Naomi Watts, Vegas With Isabella Rossellini and More https://www.thewrap.com/david-lynch-career-photo-gallery-laura-dern-noami-watts/ Fri, 17 Jan 2025 00:29:29 +0000 https://www.thewrap.com/?p=7684972 The visionary filmmaker is remembered as a complete original and built up quite the list of collaborators since 1984's "Dune"

The post David Lynch in Photos: Milestones With Laura Dern, Cannes With Naomi Watts, Vegas With Isabella Rossellini and More appeared first on TheWrap.

David Lynch is one of the most prolific — and certainly singular — American directors of the last 50 years, and his death was met Thursday with innumerable tributes and memories from collaborators like Kyle MacLachlan (“Twin Peaks”), Naomi Watts (“Mulholland Drive”) and Steven Spielberg (“The Fabelmans”).

And while his body of work speaks for itself, the outpouring of support and grief and celebration of Lynch’s life showed just how many people he touched in his decades as one of Hollywood’s most unique voices.

Below, TheWrap has rounded up a number of memorable moments of Lynch throughout the years, including taking “Wild at Heart” to the Cannes International Film Festival in 1990 with stars Laura Dern, Nicolas Cage, Willem Dafoe, Diane Ladd and Isabella Rossellini; celebrating Dern’s Hollywood Walk of Film induction with Mark Ruffalo in 2010; and working to film “The Straight Story” in 1998.
