Versatile actor Mark Ruffalo does double duty in HBO's new limited series I Know This Much Is True (out now). Ruffalo stars in the six-part drama as twin brothers Dominick and Thomas Birdsey. Thomas suffers from paranoid schizophrenia and Dominick tries to protect his brother from his own harmful delusions while also unraveling their family's secrets. With Ruffalo taking on two incredibly different and difficult roles, audiences might wonder if the Birdsey brothers from I Know This Much Is True are based on real people? Despite its name, I Know This Much Is True isn't a true story. The series is an adaptation of the 900-page novel of the same name by Wally Lamb. The book was released in 1998 and was a part of Oprah's famed book club . The story stretches over multiple decades and features an ensemble of seriously talented actors such as Melissa Leo, Rosie O'Donnell, Archie Panjabi, Juliette Lewis, Kathryn Hahn, and Imogen Poots. Directed by Derek Cianfrance, wh...

Sunday’s Mother’s Day feed just got a lot cuter: Mindy Kaling shared a photo of her daughter Katherine in a new Mother’s Day post. The Never Have I Ever creator shared a rare snapshot of her daughter, 2, on social media on May 10 to celebrate the holiday, and called on her followers to share their favorite memories of their mothers or the mother figures in their lives. Like other snapshots of her daughter, Kaling’s post doesn’t show Katherine’s face — but still, the tot’s pigtails, patterned blue dress, and white sneakers manage to steal the show. “Sending a little extra love today to all of the moms, and to anyone who may be missing theirs right now,” Kaling captioned the image. “It’s nice how through my daughter, I am able to experience memories with my own mom.” The candid photograph, taken by photographer Shannon Lee Vonderach , captures Katherine as the focal point as she walks toward her mom, blurred and out of focus in the background. Kaling added, “If you have a favorite me...

Nearly two months after the Paralympic-style competition was postponed, Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex's Invictus Games message urged participants to continue to remain positive, even as "life has changed dramatically." On Saturday, Harry shared a video message on Twitter, commemorating what would have been the opening ceremony for the Invictus Games 2020. Harry began with a message about Victory Day, which falls on May 8 and marks the allied victories in World War II, noting that the weekend would "pay tribute to the service and sacrifice of the entire second World War generation" and that veterans "should've also been gathering together in the Netherlands to kick start the Invictus Games 2020 in The Hague." He also noted that "life has changed dramatically" since the last time he was in the Hague, but the Invictus Games 2020 organizers have "done an incredible job to adapt so quickly to the situation, and are busy planning dates...

Every so often, I come across an item I had no idea existed — and then I wish that I knew about it sooner. I'm talking about Einstein-level genius products on Amazon that truly move the needle forward in innovation. But don't be fooled: Innovation doesn't necessarily have be synonymous with "complicated." To be entirely honest, the most impressive items on the market tend to be the simplest and most practical. Whether it be a silicone shaper that molds a couple dozen perfect meatballs at once, a plane phone mount for mile-high movie viewing, or a much-needed bag insert to help you stay organized, you'd be surprised at the amount of everyday problems you can readily solve by perusing the e-commerce giant. Out of the carefully curated products below, my favorites are the ones that are multifunctional. One example is the gorgeous minimalist lamp that comes with a USB port for your devices (so you won't have to dig behind your nightstand to charge up)...
