This year alone, our newsroom published 2,500+ articles, 100+ videos, and 650+ podcasts that have informed and educated millions of people around the world — for free. The Hollywood temptation in adapting material like Brierley’s life for the screen is to make a fairly standard inspirational movie about the power of the human spirit. Lion has all those things, but director Garth Davis, working with a screenplay by Luke Davies, pulls off something much better. Nicole Kidman was nominated for an Academy Award in the Best Actress category in 2002 for her performance as Satine in MOULIN ROUGE! Baz Luhrmann's sensual reinvention of the movie musical was nominated for eight Academy Awards including Best Picture.
"I think it's knowing that you have to keep contributing to what we call the 'us.' You go, 'Does this work for us?' " she said. "When you make an us, it's yours together — that's what you create." The actress and the country music star both grew up in Australia, but they didn't cross paths until they were adults on the other side of the world. The pair had an instant attraction when they first met at a gala in 2005 and eventually wed the following year. In Australia, it opened at number one with $3.18 million, the biggest opening ever for an Australian indie film, and the fifth biggest debut for an Australian film overall. It grossed $29.6 million, becoming the fifth highest-grossing Australian film ever at the Australian box office.
June 25, 2020: Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban celebrate their 14th wedding anniversary
Sue Brierley, with her son Saroo Brierley, joined me for a conversation that led us to memories of their first meeting, creating a bond, Lion the film, adoption laws in Australia, and Saroo meeting his biological mother after 25 years of separation. This film was the last movie role for Robert Urich, who died of cancer before its release.
Kidman and Urban tied the knot in a candlelit ceremony at St. Patrick's Estate in the beachside suburb of Manly in Sydney. Kidman's children Isabella Jane and Connor Antony, whom she shares with ex Tom Cruise, were also part of the couple's big day — Isabella was in her mother's bridal party. The film had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on 10 September 2016. It served as the opening night film at the Zurich Film Festival on 22 September 2016.

25 years later, he uses Google Earth to locate his home village and is reunited with his birth mother. The film LION is based on a true story and the 2013 non-fiction book “A Long Way Home” by Saroo Brierley. Directed by Garth Davis, the film and the cast received praise from critics and audiences and was nominated for six Academy Awards. Nicole Kidman was nominated for Best Supporting Actress in her portrayal of Saroo’s adoptive mother, Sue Brierley in this heart-wrenching true story about survival, love and acceptance.
"[They're] fantastic. I just talked to yesterday. A lot of people in that situation, it's not as fluid as it is for us," he said. " have come out to Australia a few times. It's great. We all get along very, very well." Lion is based on a true story that is both incredibly uplifting and heartbreaking. We believe that everyone deserves access to clear, factual information that helps them educate themselves on the issues of the day and the things that pique their curiosity.

"I love having my artistic path, and then my other passion is my family. That's probably all I need in my life," she said. Twenty years later Saroo is now a young man who moves to Melbourne to study hotel management. During a meal with some Indian friends at their home, he comes across jalebi, a delicacy he remembers from his childhood. Saroo reveals that he is not from Calcutta and that he has been lost for more than twenty years, and his friends suggest he use Google Earth to search for his hometown in India. Saroo commences his search, but over time disconnects from Lucy and his family, overwhelmed by the thought of emotions his family must have gone through when he was missing.
Wyatt agrees to play the lead role in a film version of the '60s sitcom bewitched to. From visionary director Robert Eggers comes THE NORTHMAN, an action-filled epic that follows a young Viking prince on his quest to save his mother and avenge his father’s murder. A visceral experience that balances the brutality of war and beauty of a son’s love and dedication to his family.

But as a film about what is a political issue (which its final “message” seems to indicate it thinks it is) it falls hopelessly short. But it is particularly notable in Lion because of the film’s ultimate posturing regarding the perilous situation for children in India. A film that is underpinned by the contrast between India’s urban and rural poverty and Australia’s affluence cannot help but be about the processes of capitalist modernity and urbanisation that underpin contemporary consumer culture. The opening sequences, with overhead shots of the Indian countryside contrasting with images of a train cutting into it, gesture towards the dialectical relationship between rural poverty and urban development.
It tells the story of how Saroo, at a young age, was separated from his older brother and mother in India, ending up thousands of miles away where he would eventually be adopted by a young Australian couple. Decades later, the 20-something Saroo would try to find his home using his memories along with Google Earth, beginning his second amazing journey to get back to his family. One of the more amazing true stories to come out of this year’s film festival circuit was that of Saroo Brierley, whose memoir A Long Way Home was adapted into the film Lion. Lion tells the real-life story of Saroo Brierley who was separated from his family in India at the age of 5, who then winds up being adopted by a family in Australia.
"He sees the show at the very end when it's a show, all edited together, and he's fresh eyes. He doesn't read any script, he really doesn't know what's going on on the set, he's got his own career that he's completely absorbed in." The pair took different approaches to celebrate their 15th wedding anniversary on Instagram. Kidman went in a flirty direction by sharing a photo of Urban licking her neck, while Urban posted a candid Christmas photo of the couple embracing. Kidman and Urban enjoyed a low-key 14th wedding anniversary celebration amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The couple were spotted grabbing takeout from Ferrarini Cafe in Beverly Hills, California.
Luke Davies, the screenwriter of Lion (based on Saroo Brierley's memoir A Long Way Home) was a BAFTA Adapted Screenplay nominee along with Tom Ford Theodore Melfi and Allison Schroeder ; Eric Heisserer ; and Robert Schenkkan and Andrew Knight . On Sunday night, it was announced that he and Dev Patel for his portrayal of Saroo Brierley were honoured with BAFTAs.

Paddy 'the Baddy' Pimblett - the UFC superstar who is using his millions to help kids in need - cuts casual... Tuesday night's exclusive event was attended by the likes of P.E Nation founder Pip Edwards and beauty guru Zoë Foster Blake. Of course, a commercial, mainstream film like Lion is hardly going to undermine its own basis by critiquing global capitalism, and, as a romantic melodrama, it is very effective.
The couple welcomed daughter Faith Margaret on Dec. 28, 2010, in Nashville. Faith was born via surrogate, and the couple chose to keep the pregnancy private. Kidman and Urban enjoyed a low-key night on the town to celebrate their fourth wedding anniversary, sharing a romantic dinner at Nashville restaurant Flyte.
There have been many iconic movie theater ads over the years, but nothing has been a bigger sensation than theAMC Theatres ad starring Nicole Kidman. Not only has the ad become a huge hit on the Internet, but it was also turned into a pretty hilarious SNL sketch. If you're a frequent moviegoer, there's a pretty good chance you've seen crowds cheer for the ad. However, some people are sick of hearing "heartbreak feels good in a place like this." In fact, one Reddit user took to the r/movies subreddit to beg AMC to remove the ad, and it caused quite a debate. Nicole kidman, nominee for best actress for 'being the ricardos' wow!

She later discussed the event with PEOPLE and shared news of the couple's engagement. Kidman later shared the secret to the couple's long-lasting love with PEOPLE.
On the weekend of 17–19 March 2017, Lion crossed the $50 million mark at the North American box-office, becoming the fifth 2016 film among the Academy Award for Best Picture nominees to surpass this threshold. Dustin O'Halloran and Hauschka teamed up to write the score for the film. Also included in the film are the songs "The Sun, The Sand And The Sea" from songwriter Jimmy Radcliffe and "Urvasi Urvasi" by A R Rahman. The film includes other songs from artists such as Hercules and Love Affair ("Blind"), Mondo Rock ("State of the Heart"), Enigma ("The Rivers of Belief") and Picturetone Pete and Jimmy Radcliffe ("The Sun the Sand and the Sea").
