German police fired water cannons Wednesday at demonstrators protesting coronavirus restrictions in Berlin’s government district, after crowds ignored calls to wear masks and keep their distance from one another in line with pandemic regulations.

As the cannons soaked protesters outside the landmark Brandenburg Gate, police in riot gear moved through the crowd carrying away some participants.

Some demonstrators threw fireworks and flares in response as police helicopters hovered overhead. The protests came as German lawmakers opened debate on a bill that will provide the legal underpinning for the government to issue social distancing rules, require masks in public and close stores and other venues to slow the spread of the virus.

Peter Dinklage’s Singing ‘Cyrano,’ ‘The Godfather’ 50th Anniversary & Oscar Shorts Enter Parched Market For New Releases – Specialty Preview

Joe Wright’s Cyrano twirls onto 797 screens, the highest-profile specialty release in weeks (as the market awaits Focus Features The Outfit with Mark Rylance and Sony Pictures Classics Mothering Sunday). But the well reviewed period musical romance from UAR starring Peter Dinklage is landing in a tough place. Industry estimates anticipate a low single digit opening given the inconsistent reception for movie musicals and the fact that its key older demos, especially women, have been the slowest to return to theaters.

Benedict Cumberbatch's Power of the Dog role 'took a lot of patience' from his family

He also practiced whistling, which Phil uses to intimidate Rose."That took a long time and a lot of patience from the people around me, particularly my family," Cumberbatch confessed to USA Today.He shares three "exceptionally beautiful, extraordinary" children Kit, 6, Hal, 4, and Finn, 3, with his theatre director wife Sophie Hunter.But they weren't the only commitments he made to the film.He and his co-star Kirsten Dunst, both spoke out about avoiding each other on-set of the Western.It was an incredibly dedicated tactic in order to portray their characters to the best of their ability.And the hostility between the two on-screen could definitely be felt, as the actors ignored each other the entire time, even when they had finished filming for the day.In an interview with Radio Times, Dunst explained: "I isolated myself from Benedict."We didn’t talk at all during the filming unless we were out to dinner on a weekend, all together, or playing with our kids."She added of his impeccable manners: "He’s so sweet."And he’s so British!"Polite British, you know? I was like, ‘I can’t talk to you!'"
