Una película filmada en primera persona suena a un truco. Parte de la magia de la narración cinematográfica es aceptar que algo puede ser desde el punto de vista de alguien y, sin embargo, también desde la distancia. Usar la cámara desde el punto de vista de un personaje suele ser un recurso de estudiantes universitarios y cineastas experimentales de nicho. En una película comercial, debe usarse sólo en dosis muy limitadas. Y sin embargo, con “Nickel Boys”, que se estrena este fin de semana en L.A., el cineasta RaMell Ross no solo se compromete con la idea, sino que entrega una de las películas más poderosas del año: un viaje lírico, desgarrador y espeluznante hacia la oscuridad de una brutal escuela-reformatorio en el sur de Estados Unidos durante la época de la segregación. Ross y la coguionista Joslyn Barnes no partieron de cero, sino de la novela ganadora del Pulitzer de Colson Whitehead sobre dos adolescentes, Elwood y Turner, que se hacen amigos mientras son pupilos de ese reformatorio juvenil en Florida. La Academia Nickel de la novela y la película es ficticia, pero

One person is dead after they ingested what they believed to be psychedelic mushrooms in Utah, according to the Utah Poison Control Center. “The Utah Poison Control Center was recently notified about a possible case of amatoxin (mushroom) induced liver failure and death,” a press release from the poison control center states. “The patient reportedly ingested psychedelic mushrooms purchased on the street.” After eating the mushrooms, the individual reportedly began to experience severe nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Their condition worsened, experiencing “fulminant liver failure, acidosis, and hypotension,” the release states. The person died around 36 hours later, officials said.

Normally, psychedelic mushrooms do not cause liver damage, and officials said it is “highly unusual” for hepatotoxic mushrooms to be mistaken for psychedelic mushrooms. The center has not had any confirmed cases of

Earlier this month, the Louise Lowery Davis Center at 111 W. Victoria St. in Santa Barbara reopened with some major upgrades. “[There’s] additional lighting, we’ve raised all the ceilings up, so that feels a lot more open and airy,” said Rich Hanna, Santa Barbara Parks and Recreation Manager. Hanna says the project took around five years to complete with crews making improvements to the interior and exterior of the building in addition to a new outdoor patio. The Parks and Recreation Department is currently seeking partners to expand the offering of free programs and services available at the community center. “Youve got your event space, to your activity room, out to the courtyard and we can do events for up to 114 people,” Hanna said. “Most of our senior activities right now, we probably have anywhere from eight to 10 participants in each of those activities that we currently offer.” The century-old building was built in 1923 as part of Santa Barbaras first public high school and has served as a community recreation center since 1933. “It’s nice to bring it on and actually have
