And yes, as with female models, there is such a thing as being “too tall.” Male models can usually get away with 6’3″ but any taller than that, and most agencies will more than likely pass on you. The more picky ones set the minimum height at 5’11”. In general, the majority (not all) of agencies that sign on fashion/runway male models set a height range of between 5’10”-6’2″. I mean, if you’re posing next to a female that is 5’10” without heels and is wearing 4 inch heels and you’re next to her, you should be able to stand your ground, height-wise. In general, people think of men as being handsome, ruggard, sexy, and…tall! Height for men is super important, especially for photoshoots. There are definitely the Kate Mosses of the world but as far as I know there aren’t any male models out there are are short but still super successful or fall into the supermodel realm. Unfortunately, there are even less “exceptions to the rule” when it comes to male models than female models.

At the end of the day, I’m just grateful they only threw in one Fresh Prince of Bel-Air joke. The film is focused, to the exclusion of almost everything else, on its combat scenes and cinematography, but Will Smith and Mary Elizabeth Winstead manage to be charming enough on their own to make the rest of the movie watchable. So Gemini Man isn’t about to pick up a screenwriting award, not that it was trying very hard. The profanity is the other area where things ramp up, with about a dozen moderate profanities and one sexual expletive. The violence is about what you’d expect, nothing too graphic or disturbing, just plenty of beatings and shootings.

Film Reviews 9:02pm PT Critics Pick Film Review: ‘Gemini’ Low-budget auteur Aaron Katz's take on Los Angeles and the curious dynamics one finds there is an elegant, 'Mulholland. It’s not that anyone’s dancing naked on a table with a lampshade on their head, but it feels like any scene that doesn’t involve someone getting shot is an excuse for characters to have a quick drink. Gemini Man is well rated at PG-13, although there’s more drinking than you usually see in these movies. The story is an excuse for Will Smith to beat himself up on two different continents, and it delivers. That said, I don’t think Gemini Man was going out of its way to blow you away with slick dialogue and clever plotting. It’s very predictable, and not much happens that you wouldn’t have called twenty minutes in advance. Sequences are memorable, easy enough to track, and have interesting adaptations to the settings and situations. The fight choreography is well done, for the most part. Since Gemini Man is an action movie, let’s talk about the action. My advice? Keep that half-empty popcorn bag nearby. At least not if you were planning to have a snack during the show.

It sat in my menubar and made new events really quickly. While this has dramatically increased the speed at which I create calendar events, I always thought of Fantastical more as a utility than a calendar application. I take this for granted now but thinking back to the days before Fantastical, creating a new calendar entry was a hairy mess of inspectors and mouse clicks. You don’t have to do this very long before you you learn to create new events as easily as typing a sentence. That way, you can see exactly how the computer interprets what you are writing. One of the application's innovations is the way it physically animates the creation of the event while you type in the text.
