Description
Set in the Beverly Hills home of Oscar winning movie director Bruce Delamitri, Popcorn is a satirical comedy thriller with the firepower of a hit squad. When notorious killers Wayne and Scout interrupt Bruce's passionate introduction to Brooke Daniels, a nude model and actress, they want more than an autograph from their cinematic idol. Wayne intends to use Bruce's "art" as justification for murder. Events are disrupted by the arrival of Bruce's soon to be ex wife and spoiled teenage daughter and his producer. However, Wayne means to succeed whatever the cost.5 women, 4 men

习近平的两种结局——毕汝谐原创戏剧六种: The Two Endings of Xi Jinping---Six Original Plays by Bi Ruxie
By 毕汝谐 著 （Bi Ruxie）当今世道，一个人想做一件举世无二、独一无二的事情（行善 也罢，为恶也罢），难于登月。 然而， 毕汝谐硬是做了一件举世无双、独一无二的事情——自 2013 年始，创作一系列以习近平为主人公的小说、剧本。 中国主席习近平如同日月临空，人人可见可鉴；却独独引发毕 汝谐的持久的创作激情！ 2015 年 2 月，毕汝谐敢为天下先，创作习近平主席的两种结局，超前预言习近平的两种结局：称帝或者死于非命。 2018 年 2 月，习近平称帝的狼子野心大白于天下。 毕汝谐实为事前诸葛亮。 2006 年 6 月，毕汝谐接受纽约中国广播网采访时说：作家是什么?词典说作家是从事文学创作的人； 毕汝谐给作家下的定义是： 作家是民族的乌龟背，作家是大众的老寒腿。作家理应是先知 先觉！ 毕汝谐是民族的乌龟背、大众的老寒腿，庶几无愧。 毕汝谐的幸与不幸，皆源于其具有神秘主义的特异功能。
