We cover so much stuff here at /Film, but sometimes a trailer slips through the cracks. That’s where a trailer round-up comes in handy! This latest trailer roundup features the biblical epic Samson, the new HBO series Barry, the horror sequel/reboot Victory Crowley, the Sundance film Pity, May It Last, a documentary about the Avett Brothers, and the comedy The Female Brain.

Samson

The faith-based film company Pure Flix are trying to get into the epic blockbuster game with Samson, an action-movie-tinged take on the tale of Samson and Delilah. It looks…wild. There’s a part in this trailer where someone moans, “Samson, the Philistines are upon you!” and also a part where Billy Zane shows up wearing a crown he got at Burger King. I kind of want to see this? The film stars Billy Zane, Rutger Hauer and Jackson Rathbone and will be released on February 16, 2018. Here’s the synopsis:

SAMSON, empowered by God with supernatural strength, endangers his destiny with impulsive decisions that lead to betrayal by a wicked prince and a beautiful temptress. When Samson calls on his God once more, he turns imprisonment and blindness into final victory.

Barry

Bill Hader has a killer job in Barry: he’s a hitman. The new HBO series follows Hader’s depressed hitman as he moves to Los Angeles and falls into an acting class. HBO needs some new blood as far as their original shows go, and Barry might deliver. Hader is talented enough, and the show has surrounded him with a cast that includes Stephen Root, Sarah Goldberg, Glenn Fleshler, Anthony Carrigan, and the Fonz himself, Henry Winkler. Barry debuts March 25, 2018 on HBO. Here’s the synopsis:

Barry centers on ex-Marine Barry who works as a low-rent hitman in the Midwest. Lonely and dissatisfied in his life, he begrudgingly travels to Los Angeles to kill someone and ends up finding an accepting community in a group of eager hopefuls within the LA theater scene.

Victory Crowley

The Hatchet horror series gets a reboot/sequel with Victory Crowley, and there’s a trailer to prove it. I’m a horror fan, but I’ll confess I’ve never seen any entries in the Hatchet series, and based on this trailer, I don’t know if I’ll start. The footage here seems more focused on jokes than scares, and perhaps that’s the main thrust of this series; if so, it’s not for me. Victor Crowley hits VOD/DVD February 6, 2018. Here’s the synopsis.

Ten years ago, forty-nine people were brutally torn to pieces in Louisiana’s Honey Island Swamp. Over the past decade, lone survivor Andrew Yong’s claims that local legend Victor Crowley was responsible for the horrific massacre have been met with great controversy, but when a twist of fate puts him back at the scene of the tragedy, Crowley is mistakenly resurrected and Yong must face the bloodthirsty ghost from his past.

Pity

Pity is making its debut later this month at Sundance, and a trailer has arrived to herald this. IndieWire debuted the exclusive trailer first, and tell us the film is about ” a nameless everyman, played by comedian Yannis Drakopoulos, who revels in unhappiness, lives for being sad, and relishes being, well, pitied. His life is made all the better — worse? — when his wife falls into a coma, a terrible situation that comes complete with plenty of sadness and whole heaps of pity. It’s kind of ideal. But can it possibly last?”

May It Last

Musicians The Avett Brothers, fans of sad jams and facial hair, now have their own documentary. May It Last: A Portrait of the Avett Brothers is described as “an intimate documentary following acclaimed North Carolina band the Avett Brothers, as they create their 2016 hit album ‘True Sadness.’” The documentary was filmed with extensive access over more than two years, and will debut on HBO on January 29, 2018.

The Female Brain

Whitney Cummings writes, directs and stars in The Female Brain, a comedy about a neuroscientist who is researching the mysteries of the female mind. There’s a lot going on in this trailer, but the thing that got the biggest laugh from me is when James Marsden shows up and says, “How does it feel to be dating a magician?” Dude’s got good comic timing – put him in more comedies. The Female Brain stars Whitney Cummings, Sofia Vergara, James Marsden, Cecily Strong, Blake Griffin, Beanie Feldstein, Lucy Punch, Toby Kebbell, and Deon Cole. Look for it on VOD on February 9, 2018. Here’s the synopsis:

What makes a woman swipe right for Mr. Wrong and left for Mr. Right? This simultaneously entertaining and enlightening comedy is a fresh, witty, and all-too-relatable look at the real-life science behind our (often regrettable) romantic impulses. Writer-director Whitney Cummings (2 Broke Girls) stars as no-nonsense neuroscientist Julia, whose research into the biochemistry of the female brain is illustrated by three couples: newlyweds Zoe (Cecily Strong) and Greg (Blake Griffin), whose career troubles seep into their relationship; Lisa (Sofia Vergara) and Steven (Deon Cole), who are looking to spice up their stuck-in-a-rut marriage; and Lexi (Lucy Punch) who can’t help trying to change her boyfriend Adam (James Marsden). Meanwhile, the straight-laced Julia’s own synapses start to fire when a handsome new subject (Toby Kebbell) joins her study…

While goods from these companies can be expensive, the goal is to pay producers a living wage while creating fashionable, high-quality clothing.

As resistance to fast fashion was picking up, Harper Poe graduated from college and started a day job that didn’t inspire her. She quit, and with a friend went on to found Proud Mary Global Textiles, a company that sells fair-trade accessories, home goods, and clothing. She partners with artisans in countries such as Mali and Mexico known for quality handcrafts. Before Poe launched Proud Mary’s first collection in 2008, she had no real experience in the field, aside from working briefly in interior design. She says that she’s sought out guidance along the way that’s helped her balance her company’s mission with its bottom line.

For The Atlantic’s series on mentorship, “On the Shoulder of Giants,” I spoke with the Charleston, South Carolina-based designer about the promise and pitfalls of social entrepreneurship, as well as how she patterned her winding career path on an admired mentor’s. The conversation that follows has been edited for length and clarity.

Elisha Brown: Can you expand on Proud Mary’s slogan, “Pride, not pity”?

Harper Poe: The idea is that Proud Mary is a business-to-business relationship. A lot of people are like, “We’re empowering women.” That’s awesome, but there’s something wrong with that. When you say you’re empowering someone else, that’s insinuating that you have the power, and you’re saying, “Oh, I’ll give you some of my power.” But the artisans who are making these products—I can’t weave like that, I can’t make that embroidery—they already have a lot of power. We wouldn’t be in business if it wasn’t for these artists.

Brown: What are the origins of the company?

Poe: I was living in New York City a year prior to launching Proud Mary. I studied construction management in college, and I was working for a general contractor in the city. I just burned out on working nine-to-five in New York City, so I quit my job, went to South America, and volunteered with Habitat for Humanity. For the first time, I saw women weaving textiles and the cultural significance of it really struck a chord with me. I got back to New York and I started taking classes in global affairs, because I was also interested in international development and reducing poverty.

It was a perfect storm of different passions coming together at one time. A friend and I started Proud Mary together, and we launched our first collection of handbags, pillows, and small accessories made in Guatemala at the end of 2008.

Brown: Who has guided you as you’ve learned about the ethical-fashion movement?

Poe: Starting out, I had no idea what I was doing and probably didn’t ask for enough help. I just knew this was my calling and I was going to form a business and figure it out. I met Elaine Bellezza. When she was 40, she was living in San Francisco as a private chef and artist. She quit those and joined the Peace Corps in Cameroon and ended up living in Mali for 15 years. She had a gallery and started working with artisans there. She’s been developing handcrafts all across West Africa, and did some work with the World Bank.

She was always super encouraging of me. Whenever there was an opportunity to bring a designer on some of these development trips, she would encourage me to apply for it. I think that she definitely challenged me and still does. She just always told me to not having a bleeding heart about this work. I definitely found that challenging sometimes. She’s like, “This is business. Go do the work. The good will come out of those business relationships.” I think about that a lot.

Brown: How did you wind up working with women in Syria and Mali?

Poe: I think Mali is the country that’s probably the closest to my heart. I went there in 2011, and fell in love with the textiles and the people and the music. I went with Elaine, who had lived there for 15 years. I started talking with her, telling her I wanted to work with textiles in Ghana. She said, “You should go to Mali—they have beautiful stuff.”

I had listened to the news, but knowing people in a place, understanding their point of view and why things are happening, changed the game for me. Some of our artisans’ spouses were killed in the war. Since then, the security situation has deteriorated. A lot of artisans we were working with there don’t really have an outlet for their products anymore.

I also wanted to do something with the refugee crisis in Syria. I found a Syrian-American woman through the Ethical Fashion Initiative. She started a workshop with about six women who, some of them, ISIS had taken over their villages. Some were double refugees from Palestine, and now were internally displaced in Syria. They make handbags and jewelry. They’re trying to grow and scale to 75 women in the next six months.

Brown: What do you think about where the ethical-fashion movement is now?

Poe: We hit a tipping point with [the 2013 garment-factory collapse] in Bangladesh. Conscious consumerism has come a long way, but there’s a long way to go. We’re at risk of exploiting some of the producers and some of the artisans, from a marketing standpoint. I fear that terms like “ethical fashion,” “artisan-made,” “empowering women,” all those buzzwords, people are not going to think about the women—which could be a bit dangerous. The brands that are doing this work should be honest and informative, not overzealous in using another person’s story to sell their products.

Brown: Have people reached out to you for advice or mentorship since you started Proud Mary?

Poe: Yeah, I’ve had a few people wanting to start sustainable businesses. And I have one assistant/studio manager. She graduated last year, so she’s trying to figure out what she wants to do. I try to loop her in as much as possible, tell her about my path and how very nonlinear it was. I let her know it’s okay to make mistakes—it’s okay to try and have five different careers until you figure out what you want to do.

Martin Shkreli will have his federal securities fraud trial separated from that of his former counsel and co-defendant Evan Greebel, US District Judge Kiyo Matsumoto wrote in an order filed Wednesday.

Shkreli and Greebel were jointly indicted by the FBI in December of 2015 on allegations that they ran an elaborate Ponzi-like scheme to defraud investors of hedge funds that Shkreli formerly managed and siphoned $ 11 million in assets from Shkreli’s former biopharmaceutical company, Retrophin.

Since then, both Shkreli and Greebel have pled ‘not guilty’ and asked the court to have their trials separated. They have made it clear that they intend to point fingers at each other in the cases.

This isn’t a miraculous occurrence or a trick. But it is very rare.

The technical term for the process of a chicken incubating an egg inside another egg is called a counter-peristalsis contraction. Basically, an egg that wasn’t quite ready went back up inside the hen’s reproductive assembly line and another egg formed around it. This is what a chicken’s oviduct looks like:

Under normal circumstances, a hen ovulates and releases an oocyte that travels through the oviduct forming the yoke. It collects layers of membranes and albumen along its way through the reproductive track and develops its white. Finally, it forms the shell in the uterus.

But in rare circumstances, another ovulation occurs before the first egg is fully formed and the first egg is sucked back up into the beginning stage of the oviduct. This second egg forms itself through through the usual process and just makes room to encapsulate the first egg. Next thing you know, a very large egg is pushed through the cloaca.

The YouTuber that uploaded this video writes that his hen is fine but they were afraid to eat the egg. For the record, if this once in a lifetime occurrence happens to you, both eggs should be normal.
