Co-starring Michelle Monaghan and Dermot Mulroney. But with some decent cinematography, and Foxx perspiring and straining for all he’s worth, it should be noted that, while Sleepless does collapse, it at least collapses in style.Film review by Jason Day of Sleepless, a thriller starring Jamie Foxx as an undercover cop in Las Vegas. Sleepless, then, is the very definition of a thriller that collapses like a house of cards. Going up a lift to the top floor, then going back down again to the ground floor. Getting into fights, escaping from the fights, then getting back into fights with the same person again. Its cops and gangsters are doomed to keep running to and fro, putting things in lockers and then taking those things back out of lockers. After a while, the setting begins to feel less like a casino and more like the Overlook Hotel in The Shining: an inescapable place where all natural laws are suspended. The only actor who really seems to be enjoying himself is David Harbour, who’s clearly aware that Sleepless is a bit of a pot-boiler.Įven at a focused 95 minutes, Sleepless starts to feel longer than it is – probably because so much time is spent following the same characters run round the same locations. McNairy, after a decent villain’s introduction, has a similarly thankless role to Monaghan his cries of “Where are my drugs?” are the film’s predictable refrain. Monaghan, who’s initially good value as a cop who’s just come off a bruising case-gone-wrong, just looks confused and annoyed by the middle of the movie – probably because the script has her standing in a casino lounge and waiting for something to do for far so long. Foxx, all sweat and increasingly grubby clothes, gives his cornered hero a distancing, bullish quality. The outlandishness wouldn’t necessarily matter if Sleepless had the self-awareness of, say, a decent Jason Statham film, but the movie’s largely played straight by its leads. The action escalates, as you might expect, but only in its outlandishness – what begins as a thriller set in what feels like the real Las Vegas soon detaches itself from reality so completely that your humble writer half expected a flying saucer to land in the final act. Sleepless is one of those thrillers that requires its characters to do illogical things in order to keep the story on track – vital items are grabbed and then lost again, villains are ruthlessly efficient and absurdly careless the next. The plot, meanwhile, conspires to undo all that tension within the space of a few minutes. The filmmaking which underpins Sleepless‘ inciting incidents – the initial stash grab, Vincent’s stab to the gut – is crisp and urgent, and suggests that we’re in for a terse, intense slab of action and intrigue. Some unconvincing blue-screen driving sequences aside, Sleepless looks great, thanks to cinematographer Mihai Malaimare Jr, the chap who made Paul Thomas Anderson’s The Master look so lavish. Sleepless is directed by Switzerland’s Baran bo Odar, and the movie initially looks like a solid calling card for a filmmaker making his American debut (Odar’s previous film was the successful Who Am I from 2014). Everything seems set for a high-stakes showdown… until pretty much at the mid-point, everything clatters to the ground. There’s Vincent, who shows up in the hope of getting his son back the establishment’s dodgy owner, Rubino (Dermot Mulroney), a phalanx of gangsters led by the scrawny, crazed-looking Novak (Scoot McNairy), plus Bryant and her sarcastic partner, Doug (David Harbour, out of Stranger Things). All of this builds to the meat of the thriller: a lengthy game of cat-and-mouse in a Vegas casino.

Of those 62 fastballs, the Tigers swung at 41 of them: 16 misses, 19 fouls and six balls in play. His four-seamer averaged 92.2 mph and generated 16 of his 18 swings and misses. Ryan threw 78 pitches (63 strikes), but 79% of them were four-seam fastballs. We tried to make adjustments, it just didn't happen. "The rest of the league doesn't seem to have trouble seeing his pitches or making adjustments to the rate that we are. The 26-year-old rookie allowed one run on three hits with nine strikeouts, without allowing a walk, across five innings. Opposing Alexander, Ryan carved up the Tigers. Gio Urshela's sacrifice fly made it 4-1, but Law struck out Gordon with a curveball to strand two runners in scoring position. Right-handed reliever Derek Law loaded the bases with one out for his second jam in as many appearances for the Tigers this season. The Twins tacked on their fourth run in the eighth inning. Right-handed reliever Jose Cisnero replaced Alexander for the sixth and immediately created a mess when he walked Byron Buxton on four pitches before a wild pitch moved the runner up to second base.Ĭorrea put the Twins ahead 3-1 with an RBI single to center field. But he kept putting up zeroes and got better as the outing went." We played pretty good defense behind him. "He's getting stretched out," Hinch said. He recorded 12 swings and misses, including four with his changeup. He also struck out Contreras (slider) in the second.įor his 66 pitches (47 strikes), Alexander tossed 23 four-seam fastballs (35%), 14 cutters (21%), 13 changeups (20%), nine sliders (14%) and seven two-seam fastballs (11%). He struck out two - Miranda (slider) and Nick Gordon (changeup) - in the fourth and two - Jake Cave (two-seam fastball) and Mark Contreras (changeup) - in the fifth. In the second inning, the walk killed me. In the next three innings, I executed very well, so I made an adjustment. "I thought the first two innings was kind of a laser show," Alexander said. León drove Alexander's cutter into the left-field corner for a two-run double and Minnesota's 2-0 lead.Īfter León's double, Alexander retired the final 10 batters he faced. Jose Miranda singled and Nick Gordon walked before León stepped into the batter's box with two outs for his first plate appearance with the Twins. The Twins scored both runs in the second inning. Left-hander Tyler Alexander, making his second start since returning to the starting rotation, allowed two runs on two hits and one walk with five strikeouts over five innings. New closer Jorge López, acquired at the deadline from the Baltimore Orioles, notched his first save with the Twinshis new team. Good for Michael making pitches right there, and I wish him success going down the road." I won't get into that, but not much of a surprise. "Fortunately for Michael, very general strike zone with his sliders. "I know I'm going to see a lot of sliders," Haase said. He also got Javier Báez to groundout and Eric Haase to strike out on three pitches: slider, sinker and slider. To end the sixth, Fulmer paired up with Twins shortstop Carlos Correa and picked off Castro trying to steal second base. The Twins needed the ex-Tiger to protect a one-run advantage. Right-hander Michael Fulmer, traded from the Tigers to the Twins shortly before Tuesday's deadline, pitched the sixth inning for his new team. It wasn't our friend this series, but for Harold today, it certainly was beneficial." "He's getting a lot of playing time this year, and he's demonstrating the control of the bat like he always has. The Tigers' final hit came on Castro's one-out single in the sixth inning. Utility player Harold Castro was responsible for three hits, his ninth game this season with at least that many hits.īut Castro's teammates couldn't push him across home plate. We had a lot of swing-and-miss this series and lost the series." "It's one thing to chase, it's another when you get beat in the zone. "He beat us today, (Twins starter) Joe Ryan did, with fastballs in the zone," Hinch said. The Twins posted 41 strikeouts in the three-game series and 148 strikeouts in 16 games against the Tigers this season.

I was startled somebody was there.” Ordinarily, Lamb said, she is repulsed by snakes and lizards, “but he was radiating such a nice feeling. She told me what she remembered happened to her about seven years earlier: “I was walking through my home and there was standing this reptilian being. I was surprised to hear from Marden (but confirmed it) that the garment is preserved at the University of New Hampshire, in Durham.Īlso present was Barbara Lamb, a tanned and gold-coiffed psychotherapist and family counselor from Claremont, California, who studies crop circles, the enigmatic patterns left in fields, often in England, and practices regression therapy, treating personality disorders by taking people back to previous lives. She remembered that the aliens had fumbled with her zipper before disrobing her for a pregnancy test with a needle in her navel. Their car showed some peculiar markings, and Betty’s dress had been ripped, the zipper torn. They reached home inexplicably hours late and afterward recovered memories of having been taken into the ship and subjected to frightening medical probes. They said they had stopped for a look with binoculars, spotted humanoid figures in the craft and, overcome with terror, sped away with their car suddenly enveloped in buzzing vibrations. Kathleen Marden, the director of abduction research for the Mutual UFO Network, or MUFON, one of the oldest and largest U.F.O.-investigating groups, was 13 in 1961, when her aunt and uncle Betty and Barney Hill returned from a trip through the White Mountains of New Hampshire with the stupefying tale of having been chased by a giant flying disc that hovered over the treetops. The short-haired Florida woman in white capris and a fuchsia flowered blouse was, like Cuvelier, not herself an abductee but the niece of two and the co-author of a book on the first widely publicized and most famous abduction case of all. You go through these frightening experiences, and then you go through the ridicule.”Ī plaque in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, commemorating the Hills’ experience as “the first widely-reported UFO abduction report in the United States.”, © Splash News/Corbis. “I want to get information out so these people don’t have to suffer,” she says. But she remembers as a teen in the 1940s hearing her father, Rear Admiral Donald James Ramsey, a World War II hero, muttering about strange flying craft that hovered and streaked off at unimaginable speed, and she’s been an avid ufologist ever since. Cuvelier, an elegant and garrulous woman in her 70s, isn’t one of them. She had gathered them to compare experiences as, well, “experiencers,” a term they prefer to “abductees,” and to socialize free of stigma among peers. Still imposing with its butternut woodwork, ebony trimmings, and four-story paneled atrium frescoed in the Pompeian style, the harborside mansion turned B&B seemed a fittingly baroque setting for the group of reluctant guests Cuvelier describes as “not a club anyone wants to belong to.” This happens to be an important issue for the media-shy people gathered one afternoon last July on the porch of Anne Ramsey Cuvelier’s blue Victorian inn on Narragansett Bay, in Rhode Island, once called “the most elegantly finished house ever built in Newport.” Co-designed in 1869 by a cousin of Ralph Waldo Emerson’s, it has been in Cuvelier’s family since 1895, when her great-grandfather bought it as a summer getaway from his winter home blocks away, just as the Gilded Age cottages of the Vanderbilts and Astors began springing up across the island, redefining palatial extravagance.

The British, however, continued to smuggle in opium. Many Chinese people became addicted to opium and the government soon made the drug illegal. In the 1800s, the British began selling opium in China. This created discontent among the people and eventually led to the downfall of the Qing. For example, Han Chinese and Manchu were not allowed to marry. The majority of the people, the Han Chinese, were generally discriminated against. In society, the Manchu people were considered at the top of the social class. Art flourished under the Qing including painting, sculpture, poetry, opera, and porcelain. The Qing leaders were generally strong followers of Buddhism. The three main philosophies followed by the Chinese during the Qing Dynasty included Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. In order to keep out European influence, Christianity was outlawed in the 1800s. For many years, foreign ambassadors were not even allowed to approach the Chinese capital. They traded some items such as tea and silver, but had little else to do with foreign countries. Under the Qing Dynasty, China remained somewhat isolated from the outside world. The population grew to around 400 million people. For around 150 years, China experienced growth and peace under the rule of the Qing. Later they restored much of the Ming government including the civil service exams, but only Manchu people could hold high offices. They executed anyone who was suspected of treason. In 1683, under the Kangxi Emperor, the Qing Empire included all of China.Īt first, the Manchu maintained order through harsh discipline. The Manchus continued to expand and conquer more of China. The first Qing Emperor was a five-year-old boy who became the Shunzhi Emperor. (Licensed under CC0 via Wikimedia Commons) |
