Vladimir Putin’s strangely stiff walk may not be Parkinson's but could be linked to his years of being trained as a KGB operative, according to researchers.Many videos online have revealed Putin’s unusual walk that shows his right arm remain rigid by his side with his left free to swing normally.Some health specialists felt this could have been the signs of a stroke or Parkinson’s, but a group of researchers feel this is an effect of his strict training.Neurology professor Bastiaan Bloem of the Radboud University Medical Centre in the Netherlands has been analysing Putin’s walk on YouTube videos and only came to a conclusion over the strange walk after finding a KGB training manual.The KGB was the main security agency for the Soviet Union and was where Putin served for a reported 16 years.The manual shows how the KGB operatives were both trained and instructed to keep their right hand close to their chests.Researchers believe the instruction allowed the operative to be able to draw his gun quicker than a potential enemy in a move compared with gunslinger’s of the Wild West.Writing his theory in The BMJ, the British Medical Journal’s online publication, Mr Bloem and his fellow researchers said: “According to this manual, KGB operatives were instructed to keep their weapon in their right hand close to their chest and to move forward with one side, usually the left, presumably allowing subjects to draw the gun as quickly as possible when confronted with a foe.”They continued: “We propose that this new gait pattern, which we term ‘gunslinger’s gait,’ may result from a behavioural adaptation, possibly triggered by KGB or other forms of weapons training where trainees are taught to keep their right hand close to the chest

Ruth Negga and Rebecca Hall are continuing their press tour for their new movie!

Ruth Negga is pretty in pink for the premiere of Passing during the 2021 BFI London Film Festival at The Curzon Mayfair on Sunday (October 10) in London, England.

Jessica Kiang An event like the Festival Lumière, with its wide remit that sees classic films and retrospectives rub shoulders with the very latest and chic-est new titles, is always going to boast a thicket of hidden connections and surprising collisions. This year, for example, you could go from watching “8 ½,” Federico Fellini’s 1963 metafiction about his relationship with filmmaking, straight into “The Hand of God,” Paolo Sorrentino’s 2021 autofiction about his relationship with (among other things) Fellini.

Jordan Moreau At a packed New York Film Festival screening, Rebecca Hall said it wasn’t easy getting her directorial debut, “Passing,” brought to screen, but her producers stuck by her throughout the long process.“My producers stood by me, even though I was a first-time filmmaker asking to make a movie in black-and-white, in 4:3 aspect ratio about controversial subject matter and a period film. They kept saying yes,” she said of producers Forest Whitaker, Nina Yang Bongiovi and Margot Hand at the Sunday night screening.Hall had a surprising family connection to the film, based on Nella Larsen’s 1929 book of the same name.

Tessa Thompson smiles in delight as a sparkler is lit to celebrate her birthday at Empire Rooftop on Sunday night (October 3) in New York City.
