Burt Reynolds stars as Rob, a cowboy who is enlisted to work on a large period Western film (Blue) shooting in his hometown in rural Utah. He falls in with assistant editor Jean (Barbara Loden), and their chemistry quickly spirals into a difficult romantic entanglement.
This powerful drama utilises footage from the filming of Blue, sharing landscapes and brief uncredited appearances from Blue actors, creating a fascinating coupling of two truly unique films.
Though shot in 1967, Fade In was not released until 1973, relegated to a television debut after studio executives chose to shelve the completed film, and director Jud Taylor replaced his name with Alan Smithee.

This is the worldwide debut of this stunning, brand new documentary.
Film historian Daniel Kremer is your tour guide through an obscure, perplexing body of work heretofore ignored and often unfairly shunned. Cruel, Usual, Necessary: The Passion of Silvio Narizzano is an essay documentary of discovery.
'Gripping, spectacularly done, utterly convincing. I am humbled by the lyricism of Kremer's narration.' – Patrick McGilligan, Author of Alfred Hitchcock: A Life in Darkness and Light, and George Cukor: A Double Life
'Quite extraordinary. Daniel Kremer has come to the rescue of several underappreciated auteurs who have fallen between the cracks of film history, and now he sets his gaze on Silvio Narizzano. Kremer connects the dots and weaves together the threads of a fascinatingly disparate and eclectic filmography, and what emerges is a portrait of a unique artist and singular vision that was there all along, waiting for another visionary to discover it.' – Alonso Duralde, film critic, author of Hollywood Pride (TCM)

Op shop find worth $1,000 Aussies are 'snapping up like investment properties'
A classic Australian item that can be "easily" found at charity shops around the country is being snapped up by collectors willing to pay as much as $1,000 for a complete set. Mat Carpenter, an avid thrifter, told Yahoo News those looking to supplement their income with items found at the charity shop "need to know what they're looking for" and there is one particular aisle that usually offers him a "home run". "One of the easiest starting points for Aussies wanting to make money is kids media, particularly DVDs and VHS tapes," he said. Despite the fact that "no one under 25 owns a DVD or VHS player", he argues that older generations are "snapping them up like they're investment properties". Aussies snap up The Wiggles DVDs for $1,000 A complete set of season one, two and three of the original Wiggles TV show can "easily" be listed on reseller websites like eBay for $1,000. Mat explained that The Wiggles have made Mat – who runs who runs Flip Weekly, a newsletter and podcast teaching Aussies how to flip undervalued products found in op shops – "a lot of money". "Earlier this month I bought a huge box of old VHS tapes that contained 12 copies of The Wiggles," he explained. "The resell value of those 12 was over $700 and just 1 tape alone sold for $200." The second-hand flipper thinks the reason behind this stems from "nostalgia", but also the fact that in modern times, media catalogues are often divided across different streaming platforms as well as the "older generation relying on technology they're familiar with," he said. 🛍️ Mum's sad op shop theory highlights surging Gen Z trend 😢 Local unleashes over 'disgraceful' act on Aussie street 💎 Woman's 'rare' $2 find at Vinnies op-shop worth $1,000 For those looking to supplement their incomes by sifting through charity stores in search of treasure, he said finding shows like The Wiggles are a good place to start. "They're easy enough to come by in charity shops," he said. "They're also rife at garage sales and on Facebook Marketplace." He's had similar success with other nostalgic children's shows, including seasons 1-3 of The Amanda Show on DVD selling for over $1,000. He's found Barney & Friends complete series selling for $500, and individual seasons of Teletubbies for $50 each. "When I posted my Wiggles video we had a lot of comments from people who owned the valuable DVDs but just didn't know about it. I suspect that's the case for a lot of these shows too," he said.

Little League World Series player calls out Shohei Ohtani as 'not really humble' after encounter
Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani might be a global baseball icon, but not in the eyes of one Little League World Series player. Australia's Monica Arcuri revealed an interaction with Ohtani that led her to believe he is "not really humble." Arcuri was featured on ESPN's "Sunday Night Baseball" KidsCast during the New York Mets-Seattle Mariners game Sunday in Williamsport, Pa., the host city of the Little League World Series. During her interview, the Brisbane native described attending a Los Angeles Angels game in Anaheim in 2023. During that game, Ohtani — then still a member of the Angels — homered off Toronto Blue Jays starter Yusei Kikuchi. "He hit a home run into an area where the fans couldn't go, and then this guy got the ball and gave it to my brother," Arcuri explained on the broadcast. "So, the next day we went to the VIP box at the front, and I asked for [Ohtani's] signature, but all he gave me was a side-eye and not a nice glance. "So, after that, I've never liked him ever since. He's not really humble. Not my style." That season was Ohtani's last in an Angels uniform before the Dodgers swooped in with a then-record 10-year, $700 million contract, though $680 million of it was deferred. Ohtani's first season with the Dodgers ended with an NL MVP Award and a World Series ring after defeating the New York Yankees in five games in the "Fall Classic." However, Ohtani has faced off-the-field controversies since last season. First, his former interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara, was imprisoned for stealing nearly $17 million from the Japanese star to pay off gambling debts. Ohtani publicly addressed the scandal in late March before the start of his inaugural Dodgers season, saying he had never placed a sports bet and that Mizuhara's story about paying off his $4.5 million gambling debt was fabricated. More recently, Ohtani and his agent, Nez Balelo, made headlines after being sued by a Hawaii real estate investor and broker for allegedly causing their firing from a $240 million luxury housing development. Meanwhile, it appears Arcuri enjoyed her time in Williamsport despite Australia being eliminated from the international bracket after a 12-0 loss to Canada on Sunday. Australia opened with a 7-2 loss to Panama before bouncing back with a 5-3 win over Europe-Africa on Saturday to avoid early elimination. Arucir became the 24th girl to play in the Little League Baseball World Series, and the 11th to record a hit.

Post Malone teamed up with SKIMS for the brand's latest collection adding to its menswear category, which will be available to shop on Aug. 21 Post Malone latest collab? Music to our ears. The "Rockstar" singer, 30, teamed up with SKIMS for the brand's newest campaign, fronting a Western-inspired photoshoot to promote the clothing brand's growing menswear category.

Malone is wearing selection of comfort-driven silhouettes for the campaign, which marks the debut of SKIMS' new Heavyweight Fleece fabrication. This premium innovation-driven material marks a first for the brand's menswear line. 'I'm all about comfort and feeling good in what I wear,' the singer shared in a press release. 'These pieces are fun, the camo especially stands out to me. I've always been into camo.' Founder and CCO Kim Kardashian said of the campaign, 'Post Malone truly embodies the spirit of the SKIMS Man with his effortless energy and style, which really shine through in this campaign. This launch is a big moment for us, not only because we're expanding our menswear line, but also because we're introducing our new heavyweight fleece, which takes comfort and quality to the next level. Having Post lead the campaign just felt like the perfect fit.' For the shoot, the Grammy-nominated artist wore a selection of relaxed, comfort-driven silhouettes, including the Heavyweight Fleece Jogger, Zip-Up Hoodie and SKIMS Basics T-Shirt. He paired it with a cowboy hat and boots to fit the Western-inspired theme. The fleece brings a "rugged sophistication to everyday staples," per a SKIMS press release, which notes that the garment is designed for "warmth, durability and elevated comfort." Furthermore, SKIMS' newest collection introduces a limited-edition selection of Realtree camouflage-printed styles. It adds underwear, t-shirts and fleece separates to the brand's signature silhouettes. New lounge pieces are the final addition to SKIMS' latest drop. The pieces are a described as a combination of "tactile softness" with the brand's "signature focus on fit, ease and modern functionality." The SKIMS collection is available to purchase on Thursday, Aug. 21 in store and online at Malone has been keeping busy both personally and professionally, and this SKIMS collaboration is just the latest example of his nonstop hustle. Last month, the musician — who doubles as a father of one, a daughter — wrapped The Big Ass Stadium Tour throughout North America with Jelly Roll on July 1 after its three-month-long run since its first show on April 29, fresh off the release of his first country album F-1 Trillion. Malone's F-1 Trillion was released in August 2024 and reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. The project spawned the No. 1 single "I Had Some Help" with Morgan Wallen, as well as "Pour Me a Drink" with Blake Shelton, "Guy for That" with Luke Combs and "What Don't Belong to Me." In June, Malone announced that he was set to open a massive Nashville venue for fans to "come together and kick some ass." Officially named "Posty's," the bar opened on July 2.
