Paramount+ and Tving‘s Korean series “Bargain” has won the critics’ choice award at the Seriencamp Festival in Cologne. In April, “Bargain” became the first-ever Korean series to win best screenplay at the Canneseries Festival in France.
The series stars actors Jun Jong-seo (“Money Heist: Korea”) and Jin Seon-kyu (“Extreme Job”) and is an adaptation of director Lee Chung-hyun’s 2015 short film of the same name. Director Jun Woo-sung, who was part of the production team of the short, picked up the story and developed it into a six-part series. “Bargain” revolves around a group of strangers who gather at a remote motel with ulterior motives – seeking to bargain. Unlike the original film, the series follows the characters after an unexpected earthquake traps them inside the building. With no one to trust, they must find a way to survive.

A Good Girl’s Guide To Murder follows the murder of schoolgirl Andie Bell, a crime that everyone in the quintessentially English town decided was carried out by Sal Singh five years ago.

Kaarin Fairfax and Chris Haywood in ‘Skewwhiff.’
Chris Haywood is so committed to making a thriller based on the Australian novel The Crossing he has agreed to produce as well as star in the feature film.
First-time feature director James Khehtie sent the novel by B. Michael Radburn to the actor, who loved the premise: Taylor Bridges flees from Victoria to an isolated Tasmanian town to work as a park ranger after his daughter disappeared, triggering the breakdown of his marriage.
When a young girl who was the same age as his daughter vanishes, Bridges, a chronic sleepwalker, begins to wonder what happens when he sleepwalks.
“I did not want to produce but James insisted,” Haywood tells If, recalling that he has served as a producer only once before, on writer-director Peter Watkins’ 1991 feature doc The Media Project, which critiqued Australian media coverage of the first Gulf war.

Perpetuating body issues might be the trend this Fall.
What’s hot in Fashion this Fall? Body Shaming by...Everyone™.
“Everyone” is an exaggeration, yes – Calvin Klein, for one, has embraced plus size models – but so is pretending this is only now a trend now. It’s no secret the fashion industry has a long and problematic history of the body ideals they promote. Just this week, Walmart – hardly a major couturier, but still – labeled a section of their website “Fat Girl Costumes.”
Rate The Red Carpet Style: Are these looks hits or misses?
Now two more retailers have come under fire: First, Victoria’s Secret, for their “The Perfect ‘Body’” campaign. The “’Body’” in question is actually a type of bra – one that is available in sizes A-ddd – but slapping the phrase “The Perfect Body” on a photo of six-foot tall models with zero percent body fat is easy to misconstrue.
