Far from your average vampire movie — but not that far — Girl Walks is a gorgeously filmed, emotionally resonant story of life in a dying town ravaged by the oil economy, a boy who longs for something better, and a girl who probably didn't fit in even before she became a creature of the night.
Clearly she's begun speaking openly with the dead designer and deliberately following his orders, but that part of her "brain" does seem to be different from the "conscious" part — the version of Dolores who longs for answers, who believes there's more to the world, and who kisses William like her life depends on it.
And some of them stay there, deliberately exposed and vulnerable, like "Selah," which longs for a spiritual rebirth above the harmonies of a distant, wordless choir, or "Right Now," which sets her voice trembling above a lone electric guitar as she makes a simple, increasingly anxious plea: "Don't you dare say tomorrow," she sings.
In Showtime's new crime drama "City on a Hill," Jackie Rohr is a cocaine-snorting, corrupt and racist F.B.I. veteran who longs for the days when the "bad men" were in power, and Decourcy Ward is a principled new assistant district attorney from Brooklyn, determined to "rip out the [expletive] up machinery" in 1990s Boston.
From so vital a perspective, one longs for at least a snapshot of national scale — the West pocked with frackpads, the almost daily earthquakes in Oklahoma from waste injection, the tens of thousands of people who've had no say in drilling near their homes, the workers risking damage, the question everywhere: Who will defend the water?
Truth be told, the two are perhaps a little too perfect — one longs for Pete to fall in alongside some adults as rough-and-tumble as he and his new young friend Natalie (Oona Laurence) are — but Pete's Dragon is at its best when it seems as if Lowery is reminding us why people started forming families and communities in the first place.
As such, there's something deeply nostalgic about Now and Again; Michael's life is far from perfect at the start of the series (he has weight issues, a family that mostly takes him for granted, and gets passed over for promotion), but after he suddenly "dies" and comes back to life, all he longs for is to go back to the way things were.
Majority House Leader Paul RyanPaul Davis RyanEmbattled Juul seeks allies in Washington Ex-Parkland students criticize Kellyanne Conway Latina leaders: 'It's a women's world more than anything' MORE (R-Wis.), not fully sated by his conservative legerdemain, now openly longs for so-called "entitlement reform," a euphemistic phrase for cutting the Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security systems that ordinary citizens rely upon.
It sends Hakeem, who longs for family stability (even though he's got a little family cooking in Anika), right into the arms of Laura (Jamila Velazquez) with a fat rock and a marriage proposal, with an envious Tiana (Serayah) looking on, and Rhonda reaching for solace with Anika's (Grace Gealey) kooky ass, who invites Rhonda to stay at her home.
He's still never been in the kind of magical "Notebook" love he longs for, he said, but about a year ago, he had a five-month relationship that took three breakups before the breakup took and which is the subject of "Too Good at Goodbyes," the first single off the new album, which is in the Billboard Top 10 as of this writing.
We're on our way thanks to a more diverse group of new heroes such as Alloy from Horizon Zero Dawn, but also in how we've reimagined old ones like B.J. It's easy to dismiss him as just another white male action hero, but luckily that's not done before understanding that underneath his gruff exterior, he longs for something relatable and small.
Perhaps "Unconditional Love," which voices dissatisfaction with love as ritual and longs for some transformational magic to make it exciting again, or "Ebony and Ivy," which applies a bunch of mixed nature metaphors to a reflection on class, education, and liberation, or "Funk the Fear," which urges you to break down barriers and live a more fulfilled life, all reach too far too self-consciously.
Within our own NATO alliance, Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan reportedly longs for the days of the Ottoman Empire — a caliphate declared in 1880 by the then-sultan, only to be abolished in 1924 in the aftermath of Turkey joining the wrong side in World War I. Thus, Islam's history teaches us that Baghdadi's 2014 self-declared caliphate is nothing new; such self-declarations historically have come and gone.
But it was a secret that needed to be shared, considering that I have written a book built around that experience: My fictionalized account of that era is centered on a young woman who is rebelling against a suffocating social circle, craving a more authentic life, when she is suddenly faced with an event so shocking that she longs for the time when feeling out of place was her biggest concern.
Stallone, good as he is here, can't help but be a bit of a distraction: He's more of a symbol than a character, and while the show goes to great pains to normalize his presence, there are those random, sprinkled-in Sly details — Sylvester Stallone likes frittatas, we learn; Sylvester Stallone hates fruit in water and longs for the days when "water was just water" — that remind you he's a capital-G Guest Star.
" In the 1967 novel "One Very Hot Day," by the New York Times reporter David Halberstam, his protagonist, Captain Beaupre, longs for the simplicity of World War II, because in Vietnam "you walk in a goddamn circle, and then you go home and then you go out the next day and wade through a circle, and then you go home and the next day you go out and you reverse the circle you did the day before, erasing it.
Yet he gives each of them a distinct character; under Mr. Nézet-Séguin (and the revival stage director, David Kneuss), these impressive singers found their individual dramatic voices, especially the beguiling, pure-toned soprano Erin Morley as the chatterbox Constance; the mezzo-soprano Karen Cargill as the benevolent Mother Marie, who longs for martyrdom with her "daughters" but is denied it; and the soprano Adrianne Pieczonka as Madame Lidoine, the new prioress, who arrives with a slightly sanctimonious air, only to find inner strength and heroism.
Bella Cankurtaran from Wilmington, N.C., closely read the image as inspiration for a poem: Spinning through the black abyss Bursts of light dot the universe outside my window My heart longs for your light I steer ahead into the route of the unknown The thoughts of you cloud my head Like the clouds I see below me My heart wants to be home A web of dread tangles my thoughts Wraps up my happiness Consumes it in one bite My heart wants to be free I am left with my own bitter sorrow For someone planets away For someone all alone My heart wants to be with you After reading the article, I found that Jakub, the astronaut, was having marriage issues with his wife, Lenka, down on Earth.
