of course to mary salinger. and above all you never ever call him. jerry doesn't want to hear about how much the catcher and ron and he doesn't want to read your stories don't have to write good writers make the worst assistant. get to work. tough cookie day you had a sneak preview i know so what's it like. well it's a little bit like the devil wears prada if instead of a fashion magazine or where the literary world sigourney weaver is back in her role as the mean boss that we know from working girl back in the eighty's margaret quali the daughter of andy you make delve playing the young hopeful and actually this is a very sincere movie because she has to respond to the fan mail of j.d. salinger's fans and she's not supposed to but she's she ends of wanting to write some very personal responses to a lot of lost souls out there who connect with his book ok now it's these 70th anniversary of the ballet not a kohls the set of ration of course but that is also been some controversy. that's right well cause for celebration the valley nala in the past 70 y

belinelli gets underway in a short while it's the festival's 70th year opening with the film my salinger year starring sigourney weaver of alien fame but this flick is anything but a science fiction. hugh discovered that people i don't know who these people are why they don't have more important things to do in their lives but people have been publishing whole salinger's stories on their personal whims with blogs. web blogs ridiculous this is blatant copyright infringement and we are going to have to scour the world wide web to put an end to it we're going to go back to our top story apologies that should be a different background and suspected far right terrorists shot dead 10 people near frankfurt here in germany the suspect opened fire into bars in the town of kano he is reported to have later killed himself and his mother in their apartment and of the people he shot dead were people of color the suspect a 43 year old german national left a letter admitting to the killings he also posted a video on you tube expressing racist and other extremist views federal prosecutors are treating t

salinger. the festival's new director duo are beaming at the presence of their 1st big name guest sigourney weaver she plays a leading role in the film my salinger year and it turns out she has something in common with the barely knowledge festival i turned 70 this year the same as the pair so i feel it's a great celebration. in the film weaver plays margaret the literary agent of the great american novelist j.d. salinger. it's the early ninety's one of margaret's main jobs is to keep fans like these away from the reclusive writer of the catcher in the rye flour right now on the thought but enjoying herself an aspiring writer is in charge of reading and tossing his fan mail. but it's rough going between the new hire and her veteran boss that whole time where writing was so respected in may such a profound difference to people where they were the writer is king or queen i think she feels in a way like the high priestess to put her her arms around that world and keep it safe jericho's. yes terry

salinger. it's the early ninety's one of margaret's main jobs is to keep fans like these away from the reclusive writer of the catcher in the rye out loud right now thought but enjoy herself an aspiring writer is in charge of reading and tossing his fan mail. it's rough going between the new hire and her veteran boss that whole time where writing was so respected and may such a profound difference to people where they were the writer is king or queen i think she feels in a way like the high priestess to put her her arms around that world and keep it safe jericho's. yes terry salinger is just a ghost haunting the film a guiding influence on 2 women the younger of which is still finding her way. i think it's the moment in your life where you have aspirations and you have to find the courage in this trying to chase your dream. and i also think it talks about a moment in our history where things were changing it was just before the internet swallowed up everything it's it was a time where written o

salinger but along the way she starts to connect with some of their letters and feel that they maybe deserve a better response than that and on the whole i think especially say that the film is a kind of love letter in itself to a bygone era in your new book and i have to say you guys are spot on with this comparison about the devil wears prada because it looks exactly like that still we ask about the jury the jury was presented today with some cinema royalty who is in charge. right jeremy irons the british actor is presiding over the jury this year that will be watching the films in competition and selecting the winner for the coveted golden bear or word germy irons great actor big name a bit of an honor to pick this year especially since the valley knowledge is a very political festival and he's an older white guy who sits and strangely off color things about women about gay marriage yeah that's certainly something i mean he tried to set the record straight on immediately very at the opening press conference this morning i don't waste delivering a kind of shakespearean citic we for

salinger himself of course it catches. and the ra and franny and zooey fame you might be disappointed i'm a big fan didn't touch on many aspects of his work instead it's a lot more i'd say about female emancipation and i think that it will have pretty mainstream appeal it's a very sincere movie overdub it fantastical at times maybe a little too fantastical but of chance for my taste i would say a little bit too fantastical but nevertheless i think it's a movie which easily segues between hollywood and here at the international film festival. in football and the europa league round of 16 the 3 german teams taking part on thursday night played at home and gave their fans something to smile about and track frankfurt flew past salzburg frankfurt's daiichi kumud a letter to have tricked in the fall one victory by leverkusen defeated porto by 2 goals to one and it was also $21.00 as vosburgh. paris and german chairman nasser. has been charged by swiss prosecutors in connection with a corruption case i'll kill a thief who's also

salinger whose literary agent is played by sigourney weaver kind of a mean boss a little bit of a recap of sigourney reverse 980 s. rule and working girl as the mean boss who is quite a different so this is a little bit of a devil wears prada 990 is literary new york now if you're expecting this to be all about the work of j.d. salinger himself of course of catch and the rye and franny and zooey fame you might be disappointed i'm a big fan didn't touch on many aspects of his work instead it's a lot more i'd say about female emancipation and i think that it will have a pretty mainstream appeal it's a very sincere movie a little bit fantastical at times maybe a little too fantastical have a lot of gems to my taste i would say a little bit too funtastic up nevertheless i think it's a movie which easily segues between hollywood and here international film festival . the football now and the europa league round of 16 the 3 german teams taking part on thursday night played at home and they gave their fans something to smile about and track france that flew past salzburg from france daiichi co

salinger will have plenty more from the red carpet later on the program. my 2 glamorous colleagues helena and david we'll talk to them a little later on but 1st these are the other stories making news around the world . 3 men have been sentenced to prison for stealing a gold coin worth almost 4000000 euros from a berlin museum all the robbery took place in 2017 at the board museum in the center of the german capital a 4th suspect was probably just. at least 1000 people have been killed in a bus crash in southern india the vehicle collided head on with a truck 23 people were injured the bus was on route to the states of kerala from bangalore. a delegation from the international monetary fund is in lebanon for talks on the country's deepening economic crisis the team met with prime minister has sunday and finance minister has he was any the meetings come amid concern that lebanon might default for the 1st time on paying back its international debt. now the berlin film festival or belly knowledge as it's unknown gets underway in just a short while is the fest

you have seen the opening film, my salinger year. how was it?> the premier is underway as we speak. we had an opportunity to see it in the press screening this afternoon. it is something like the devil wears product through a literary prison. it tells the story of a young aspiring poet who heads to new york with literary dreams. when she gets toto the big appl, she understands her work is anything as glamorous as what she thinks. >> sigourney weaver puts her to work answering letters addressed to jd salinger who is her clieient. the reclusive author does not want fan mail so this character is responsible for basically writing to these poor souls who identify with holden caulfield saying we are not going to respond to you and we will not forward your mail either. but along the way, she starts to connect to their letters and feel that maybe they deserve a better response than that. >> on the whole, i think it's fair to say it is a love letter to a bygone era in new york. brent: you guys are spot on with the comparison about the devil wears product

they don't have more important things to do in their lives but people have been publishing whole salinger stories on their personal each wins. we have blossomed this is blatant copyright infringement and we are going to have to scour the world wide web to put an end to it definitely not alien they're all right here's a reminder the top story we're following for you germany is in mourning after a far right extremist killed the 10 people the gunman walked into bars in the city of hotmail near frankfurt and shot his victims dead most of them came from an immigrant background the suspect later killed his own mother and then himself prosecutors are treating the attacks and domestic terrorists you're watching t.w. news of next business news with rob what's stick around we'll be right back. that's a big. part of what's. really about. climate change.

salinger and basically writing to all of these lost souls to tell them that the literary agency will not be responding or passing on their letters to the famous author but of course she really connects with their letters and in a way this is really an edge to a literary new york that is that is disappeared and then it mid ninety's for example the last time people were still using typewriters for example now he officially friend yeah all of this film is tonight's we can't tell you our opinion quite yet what we actually thought of the film but we will later we were ok so a bit of a throwback thursday to a different literary meantime we know that the jury was presented today with some some cinema royalty who is in charge. that's right the president of this year's jury is british actor jeremy irons and he's quite a big name but also a little bit of an odd choice given to. quite a political festival and everything's about identity politics these days and here you've got this older white guy having the jury and i think that's a really important point to make especially considering the fact

had he landed on omaha beach, we would not have had a salinger or " catcher in the rye." it pays off at utah beach. he will land with his most precious possession in his backpack. story at omaha beach as we all know is different. when i was looking for media to illustrate the story of omaha beach i looked at the common illustrations we all know. then i came across the story of the postcards. how to prepare an army to land in northern france? in 1942, an announcement went out over the bbc that if any listeners had any holiday snaps or postcards or guidebooks, brochures for hotels of their time anywhere in france, could they send them into the bbc? they would be used in future operations. the bbc immediately regretted being the mouthpiece of the war office because by the end of the week, 30,000 items had arrived in the post. [laughter] reachedthat total had 10 million. you realize how much the bbc regretted going down this route. [laughter] most of these went to the incinerator. but those of normandy captured the imagination. which is thetcard western end of omaha beach. 19
