NANTUCKET — Three-time Academy Award-winning director, screenwriter and producer Oliver Stone, whose movies on often controversial historical topics have had widespread cultural impact, has been named recipient of the top award at this year’s Nantucket Film Festival. Stone is scheduled to receive the Screenwriters Tribute Award at this year’s festival scheduled for June 22-27. He won a best writing Oscar in 1979 for “Midnight Express,” and best director Oscars in 1987 for “Platoon” and in 1990 for “Born on the Fourth of July.” His current project is “Snowden,” starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Edward Snowden, the man who leaked classified NSA documents.

NEW YORK — Busy entertainment mogul Tyler Perry is producing a drama about a woman involved in a political sex scandal, the first scripted series that will air on the TLC network. TLC said Wednesday that the eight-episode series, tentatively titled “Too Close to Home,” will air this summer. The lead character is a successful woman from Washington

forced to return to her modest beginnings after her affair with a married senator becomes public. Perry’s successful series on OWN, including “Love Thy Neighbor” and “For Better or Worse,” helped turn around the Oprah Winfrey network. Now TLC, at a tough ratings time for cable TV, hopes he can work the same magic.(ap)

KOLKATA - At least 14 people have been killed and 150 are feared trapped after a partially built flyover collapsed in the Indian city of Kolkata, according to police. Witnesses say rescuers are using their bare hands to try to save those caught under the rubble. Television footage shows people passing water bottles through to

those who are crying out for help from beneath the debris.

One witness has told the New Delhi Television news channel (NDTV): “We heard a loud rumble and then saw a lot of dust in the sky.” Another added: “The area was very, very crowded. Motorised rickshaws, taxis ... there was a lot of traffic.” Large concrete slabs from the construction site fell onto traffic

below, reports said. Heavy duty cranes have apparently been brought in to move the wreckage, but attempts have so far been unsuccessful.Senior police officer Akhilesh Chaturvedi said 15 critically injured people had been rescued.

TLC making drama Who knew? by creator Tyler Perry ‘The Walking Dead’ is helping families connect

NEW YORK — Michelle Fiala says her 14-year-old daughter, Laura, is fine watching humans run for their lives from snarling, flesh-eating zombies on AMC’s “The Walking Dead,” but if one of the characters vomits, the teen has to look away. “My youngest has a real thing about seeing people vomit,” the St. Louis mom said in a recent interview. “She’s got a real phobia about that. She’s totally fine when they’re stabbing zombies in the head or there’s fake blood flying or the zombies are eating people, but when (a character) Denise leaned over and threw up ... she had to turn away. She couldn’t handle that.” Fiala’s 16-year-old daughter, Emma, also watches after the three discovered the hit series on Netflix about a month ago. Humans battling a zombie apocalypse may not feel like family fare in the grand tradition of “The Ed Sullivan Show,” ‘’The Carol Burnett Show” or “American Idol,” but

the family has plenty of company. Ericka Calcagno of Farmington Hills, Michigan, looks forward to watching the show with her 12year-old daughter, Gina, and son Jean-Luc, who is 9. She said her husband first introduced her to the series, and her kids were intrigued by their conversations about it. “I was a little skeptical at first if it was too much but we watched the first season during the day. Since then we always watch together and discuss it constantly.” They’re spirited in their devotion and have even mastered makeup tricks to look like zombies (or “walkers” as they’re called on the show). Fiala and her kids are caught up to real time so they can enjoy the

season six finale Sunday. “It’s so outside of what would be my usual genre for television,” said Fiala. “I came home from work one day and my kids were sitting on the couch watching like, ‘You have to come watch this!” I was sucked in pretty immediately. You get sucked in by the characters. We have our favorites. It surprises me still that I’m that into it.” “’The Walking Dead’ is like the new ‘Family Ties,’ OK? It’s tying families together,” said actress and playwright Danai Gurira, who plays Michonne on the show. “The thing that’s touched me the most is when I’ve met mothers of adolescent sons who say, ‘This is how me and my son bond. It’s because we both watch the show.’And you know those adolescent years are tricky years for parents and I was just so touched by that. I thought it was so beautiful that this show is functioning in that way.”(ap)

D E N PASAR - Oversupply of hotel rooms in Bali, especially in South Bali, should be addressed immediately. In addition to resulting in a tariff war, the excessive hotel rooms also shift the image of Bali

tourism into mass tourism. Actually, the Island of the Gods should lead to quality tourism that can be sustainable. “To make it sustainable, a few things must be considered. First of all, the culture must remain sustainable and never be degraded

and so must the environment. Excessive tourist accommodation certainly causes many problems. As mentioned above, the tariff war will generate lower taxes obtained by the government,” said Chairman of the Bali Tourism Community Alliance (AMPB), Gusti Kade

Sutawa, in Denpasar, Wednesday (Sep. 30). Other than tax issues, added Sutawa, employee’s income is also getting lower. Proliferation of hotels is no longer comparable to the number of incoming guests. This will affect the welfare of com-

munity. On that account, it is important for Bali to gradually return to quality tourism by attempting to draw travelers with high purchasing power to come to Bali. Tourism... Continued on page 2
