Wow!!! This is a really gripping, intense movie trailer! You gotta watch this one. Can't wait for October when it comes out.
First trailer for Brian Duffield's ‘WHALEFALL’.
The film follows a scuba diver who gets swallowed by a sperm whale and only has limited time to escape.
In theaters on October 16.

Thanks Brad, it was nice to have met and worked with you when I was shooting your portrait here. Just started following you on Twitter and your YouTube channel and looking forward to more of your interviews and stories 😊👍🏾

Thanks to Detroit Free Press sports columnist Jeff Seidel for sharing our story in such a heartfelt, family-driven way. And thanks to Eric Seals and the Freep team for the front page.
The baseball coach that (rightfully) cut me from the varsity team in high school would probably say “‘Striking out on his own?!’ He’s never needed help striking out! What’s the story?” … and he’d be right 🤣 But I’m glad I have so much support in this new venture.
Excited to continue covering Detroit and Michigan sports for fans!

The older they get, the more they seem to appreciate what they took from each other.
Not many drivers can say they pushed each other to levels like Max and Lewis did.

Brilliant concept and perfectly executed

Just one day after ending "The Late Show" on CBS, Stephen Colbert returned to TV — to host a public access show with rocker Jack White in Monroe, Michigan.
Appearances by Jeff Daniels, Eminem and Steve Buscemi.

A nicely done obituary for Rob Schumacher today. Still sadden and shocked on his passing. He was such a kind and helpful person to many in our small community of photojournalists.

Right?? I keep going on their site every few hours to see if they’ve done a nice obituary for Rob but nothing. Hoping tomorrow it’ll be in there.

Sure seems like @azcentral should have an obit out for one of its best photographers, Rob Schumacher, by now. It’s been almost 24 hours since news of his death went public.
