On Wrinkles & Furrowed Brows

Young Harvey Weinstein: The Making of a Monster
Interesting (and all too stereotypical) backstory from a THR piece titled “Young Harvey Weinstein: The Making of a Monster”: The ship was enormous and solid as a rock. Built in 1897 and capable of traveling at a speed of 13 … Continue reading
