Holidaymakers were left sitting on the runway in a sweltering hot plane for hours after the jet's air conditioning system broke down. After an excruciating five hour wait, the Ryanair flight from Tenerife to Manchester was cancelled.

Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large The “Kevin & Sluggo Show” was noticeably missing Friday afternoon on Los Angeles’ KLOS-FM, as hosts Kevin Ryder and Doug “Sluggo” Roberts were given their walking papers. The decision to eliminate the afternoon drivetime slot at KLOS comes as owner Meruelo Media has made drastic cuts at several of its local radio stations, which also include KPWR-FM “Power 106,” KDAY-FM and KLLI-FM “Cali 93.9.” Meruelo had earlier this year eliminated all of the midday hosts at all four of its L.A.

Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic Some people bring happiness and positivity into the world, illuminating the lives of all around them, and some make flowers wilt and milk curdle wherever they go. As Pansy, Marianne Jean-Baptiste embodies the latter sort in “Hard Truths,” coming away from her reunion with “Secrets & Lies” director Mike Leigh with her richest character yet — not economically speaking, of course, though we’d all be millionaires if we had a nickel for every blistering complaint that spills from Pansy’s lips.

There is currently a buzz within Manchester United about youngster Toby Collyer.

Anna Marie de la Fuente Indie distributor Film Movement has snapped up North American rights to Swiss director Ramon Zürcher’s “The Sparrow in the Chimney” following its world premiere at the Locarno Film Festival. Described by Variety’s Guy Lodge as a “darkly engrossing psychodrama of pent-up domestic tensions,” the film explores the tumultuous relationship between two sisters, Karen and Jule, whose reunion at a family gathering reignites old conflicts and deep-seated emotional turmoil.

Right at the end credits of Hard Truths it says “any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.” I am not sure that is so true. I know many people who are just as mad at the world for various reasons as Pansy, the main character in Mike Leigh‘s latest depressing look at working class day-to-day existence in Great Britain. We’ve been here in this bleak zone many times with Leigh, and in fact this is the second time the great Marianne Jean-Baptiste has worked with him, the first being her Oscar nominated performance in his 1996 classic, Secrets And Lies. She was unforgettable then, and she remains unforgettable now, albeit playing a thoroughly unlikable character in Pansy, a woman who somewhere along the way lost any sense of joy, if indeed she ever had any.

At the end of the Toronto Film Festival World Premiere of her new film, The Last Showgirl, Canadian-born Pamela Anderson told the packed crowd, “this is the role I have been waiting for my entire career” while going on to joke it is the first “coherent” film script she was ever given. I can safely predict there will be more where this came from because Anderson, as an aging Vegas showgirl, is sensational, and the movie from director Gia Coppola, who says she has always wanted to make a film in Las Vegas is smart, touching, funny, honest, and wise. And if you think it is going the exploitational route like say Paul Verhooven did in his X-rated Showgirls, think again. This look at the lives of the infamous Vegas showgirls barely has any nudity, and is character-driven, more akin to the underrated 1970 drama, The Grasshopper with Jacqueline Bisset as a Vegas showgirl climbing the ladder. It helps to have not just a female director as guide, but also a top screenwriter, Kate Gersten who had studied the Jubilee show before it closed, particularly those women who lead hard lives as showgirls every night on stage.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic “The Easy Kind” isn’t the easiest kind of film to describe for someone who is getting a first look, as audiences did in its premiere screenings at the Telluride Film Festival this past weekend. On first blush, it might appear to be a documentary of the esteemed country singer Elizabeth Cook, who enjoys a sizable following for an independent artist, between her nearly 25-year discography and her SiriusXM radio show.

Addie Morfoot Contributor In the Toronto Film Festival documentary “Space Cowboy,” the triumphs and tragedies of skydiving cinematographer Joe Jennings are examined. Jennings’ desire to film an open-top automobile falling from the sky with four passengers sitting in the car is the narrative device used to structure the story. Jennings’ successful marriage and the decades he spent capturing seminal aerial moments with his camera for extreme sports competitions, Super Bowl commercials, and Hollywood films, including “Charlie’s Angels” and “XXX” are all part of the 98-minute docu directed by Marah Strauch (“Sunshine Superman”) and Bryce Leavitt.

Dang, we really thought this It Ends With Us drama had died down! But someone didn’t get the memo!

Carole Horst Amiable Josh seems on the surface to have the perfect life: accomplished wife (Cobie Smulders), son (William Kosovic) and a new house. Problem is, fatal car accidents happen with some frequency — and quite graphically — in Josh’s front yard, breaking apart his thin veneer of a life. Justin Buxton’s “Sharp Corner” stars Ben Foster as the almost anonymous Josh, the human equivalent of khakis and a white button-down shirt.
