Q: I just watched "The Wolf of Snow Hollow," which starred Robert Forster, but the credits also say it was dedicated to Forster's memory. How does that work?

It works through film great Robert Forster's dedication, combined with the slow process of releasing an indie film. Forster died of brain cancer on Oct. 11, 2019, at age 78, not long after wrapping work on "The Wolf of Snow Hollow" (2020).

Though every director in the world will tell you that there's plenty of production work to do after they say, "That's a wrap," it's especially true for indie films.

Q: I was watching "Austin Powers" the other day and started wondering about the music video that plays in the credits. It appears to feature Austin himself as the singer. Is he playing with a real band?

Actually, Ming Tea is a real band, and it's where Austin Powers got his start.

OK, sure, we all know that's comedian Mike Myers in an outlandish faux-British Invasion getup, and we know Austin Powers is just a character he created. But he created him, initially, to front that band.

On the fourth night of Hanukkah, President Biden hosted a menorah lighting. Nothing says you really care about a holiday like waiting until the fourth night to celebrate.

 

An FDA panel just voted 13-10 to "narrowly endorse" Merck's anti-viral COVID pill. Yeah, when it comes to medication, I'm sure "narrowly endorsed" is the phrase you want to hear.
