my only commentary on the Obsession art director payment stuff is that all movies but especially indies should have guaranteed backend for below the line workers based on distributor profits/box office.
I think people should be able to openly talk about compensation on indie movies when studios make millions after purchasing the film. I think it’s weird to try to discredit someone’s job or suggest their time and skills are less valuable because they’re new in the industry.
The U.S. has denied visas to "a large portion" of the support staff for the Iranian national soccer team just days before the World Cup, the Iranian Embassy in Turkey said. https://t.co/7IqZuPwy1R
The United States has denied a visa for Iran's national team manager Mehdi Mohammadnabi.
He will be barred entering the U.S. for their the Fifa #WorldCup 2026 matches.
He & others also denied visas will travel to the team camp in Mexico whilst efforts to obtain visas continue.
