A lot of actors have weighed in with thoughts, prayers, tweets and donations to help Ukrainians. Mila Kunis is doing it at scale. Kunis, who was born in Chernivtsi, Ukraine and moved with her family to the United States in 1991 at the age of 7, and her husband Ashton Kutcher have raised $16.3 million…
You would not recognize America without HIAS. The 137-year-old Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society was relatively unknown to the mainstream until the horrific events of the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting thrust it into headlines this week. The terrorist who killed 11 Jews worshiping on Shabbat morning in Squirrel Hill was reportedly “obsessed” with the organization, which once…
As the kids say: Don’t at me. “The Spy Who Dumped Me,” an action-comedy released last week, has everything people like in summer movies: Car chases. Big laughs. A-list stars. Shootouts. Poop jokes. Hot girls. Hot guys. European cityscapes. An assassin who does gymnastics. Terrorist plots. It’s only missing one thing: Male protagonists. That’s right….

Mila Kunis and Natalie Portman are our shiniest examples of the American Jewish dream. Kunis’s family came to the US from the USSR with only $250 when she was a child. Portman’s parents, descended from Holocaust survivors, emigrated to the US from Israel for her father’s work as a doctor. Kunis is brash and sexy…
It’s burning hot outside and world news couldn’t be worse. So let’s go to the movies. The Forward has compiled a list of all of the remotely popcorn-friendly movies that have come out or will come out this summer. We’ll tell you what we thought, what we expect, and of course, anything Jewish you should…
In an egregious act of censorship that can only be described as Orwellian, the Cannes Film Festival banned selfies on its red carpet this year. Can someone check the Geneva Conventions?
