There’s no denying that director M. Night Shyamalan’s filmmaking career has been polarizing, with movies in the quality range of The Sixth Sense to, somehow also,After Earth. Of course, if there’s a calling card to Shyamalan’s directorial style, it’s his propensity for third act twists that can flip a movie on its head. That’s what makes The Sixth Sense so iconic.
To that end, his controversial film Split is quintessential Shyamalan, with a final twist that puts the entire narrative in a whole new light and adds exciting possibilities for a sequel. The twist is perhaps worth the price of admission in and of itself, but here, we can discuss it in length. Just, seriously, don’t read on if you don’t want this twist spoiled — it’s actually quite clever.

Meryl Streep was honored at the Golden Globes for a lifetime of notable work, and she took her moment in the spotlight to give an acceptance speech of a lifetime.
In her nearly 6-minute address while accepting the Cecil B. Demille Award, the actress highlighted the importance of the “most vilified segments in American society right now” — “Hollywood, foreigners and the press.”
Without referencing him by name, the actress also blasted president-elect Donald Trump for mocking a reporter with a disability in 2015.
“Hollywood is crawling with outsiders and foreigners and if we kick them all out, you’ll have nothing to watch but football and mixed martial arts, which are not the arts,” she said to huge applause from the room.

In life George Michael’s most private affairs were often played out in the media for the world to see, but in the wake of his death remarkable tales of his generosity have begun to emerge.
The gestures range from random acts of kindness, such as tipping a barmaid £5,000 ($6121), because she was a student nurse struggling with debt, to even personally secretly volunteering at a homeless shelter.
The 53-year-old pop star died on Christmas Day, but it appears his kindness will be remembered by the many people who he quietly helped, as well as his more public philanthropy to causes such as the Terrence Higgins Trust — a HIV charity.
