It would have been so easy for Teri Garr to play her Close Encounters character as the buzzkill wife, but she so inhabits the confusion & terror of watching her husband lose it that it makes you realize that from her character's perspective, she's practically in The Shining...

Israel has announced that it will cease fire to facilitate the vaccination of the population of Gaza against polio. The move was made under great pressure from the Biden administration. Blinken, in particular, spearheaded this effort. Thank goodness humanity has prevailed.
