22 Movies From the 90’s Whose Production Will Always Be Remembered in Hollywood

Image
The 1990s are rightfully called the golden decade of cinema. The movie industry would spend millions of dollars on actors and special effects, and independent studios were not afraid of dealing with very serious topics. Every year, the movies we still rewatch every now and then were released on the big screen. But during the production of many of those films, the directors often had arguments with the owners of studios, actors had to make sacrifices for their roles, and the entire film crew was under the pressure of the viewer’s expectations and someone else’s ambitions. And sometimes, there was a story from before the start of the shooting process that could change the entire perception of the film.

There are some photos that can literally make your brain wiggle and crack. We’re talking about the ones where the angle and perspective join together and create brain teasers that might take you a couple of minutes (or even hours) to understand what’s happening in them.

What Happened to These 15 Iconic Actors Who Never Found Their Place in Hollywood

Image
The competition among actors is incredibly high! Every day, Hollywood is bombarded with hundreds of young, talented people that hope to be movie stars.

6 Reasons to Stop Buying Mass-Market Clothes

Image
A study conducted by Patatam, a sustainable French fashion brand, found that every fifth woman living in Great Britain feels guilty while buying new clothes and 64% of the respondents have claimed that they’re ready to buy second-hand items. It seems that second-hand stores have become more and more popular today. “Fast fashion” is a phenomenon that has had a great impact on this. There are tons of stores like Zara, H&M, and Topshop, where the clothes they sell are cheap, nice, and are meant to be worn for just one season. But are these clothes as good as manufacturers say they are?
