COVER STORY: Hollywood, the Dream FactoryIn 1913, a leased barn in Los Angeles became Cecil B. DeMille's production center for the very first feature film shot in Hollywood. What started as a weather-friendly place for filmmakers grew into a phenomenon heralded around the world as a "dream factory." Turner Classic Movies host Ben Mankiewicz talks with actor Tony Goldwyn, director Patty Jenkins, and Motion Picture Association chairman and CEO Charles Rivkin about the historic rise of the film and entertainment industry; how Hollywood became a metaphor for America; and what the introduction of streaming and artificial intelligence might mean for the future of movies.

MOVIES: "Mr. Nobody Against Putin": How one Russian teacher confronted Kremlin propagandaWhen Russia invaded Ukraine, the Kremlin's propaganda machine framed the war as a heroic calling, drilling the message into children at every school in the country.

Elizabeth Palmer talks with schoolteacher Pasha Talankin, now living in exile, and his co-director David Borenstein, about the moral choice Talankin made as an act of resistance to expose Putin's lies.
