you don't see in the movies,' she said.

shower for her in May.

Oscar-winning actor Ernest Borgnine dies at 95

Oscar-winning Hollywood actor Ernest Borgnine, who starred alongside Frank Sinatra in the early 1950s, died of renal failure at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. He was 95.

In the early 1950s, the actor gained notoriety for playing Fatso Judson, the villain who beat Frank Sinatra to death in From Here to Eternity.

He later starred in 1950s action blockbusters Three Bad Men, Barabbas, The Dirty Dozen and The Wild Bunch.

After numerous Hollywood successes, he moved into television comedy taking a role in McHale's Navy as the commander of a World War II PT boat with a crew of misfits and malcontents.

'The Oscar made me a star, and I'm grateful,' the Telegraph quoted him as telling an interviewer in 1966. 'But I feel had I not won the Oscar I wouldn't have gotten into the messes I did in my personal life.'

Those messes included four failed marriages, including one in 1964 to singer Ethel Merman that lasted less than six weeks.

However, Borgnine's fifth marriage to Norwegian-born Tova Traesnaes in 1973 endured and brought with it an interesting business partnership.

She manufactured and sold her own beauty products under the name of Tova and used her husband's rejuvenated face in her ads.

Angelina Jolie was made an honourary citizen of Sarajevo at the city's film festival, in recognition of her film about Bosnia's 1992-1995 war.

Her directorial debut, In the Land of Blood and Honey, is based on the story of a Bosnian Muslim woman's love for a Bosnian Serb man during the war.

'This means so much to me. My heart is in this city,' the BBC quoted a tearful Jolie as saying on been given the award.

The 37-year-old said that her experience making the film had been life changing. 'The time I spent and the people I met in Bosnia have changed me for ever,' she said. 'I can't tell you how much it means to me to be named an honourary citizen of Sarajevo, a city so dear to my heart.'

The honour was announced in April. The prime minister of the Sarajevo Canton, Fikret Music, presented it to her.

The movie was nominated for a Golden Globe earlier this year for Best Foreign Language film.

Jolie also attended the Sarajevo Film Festival to promote young talent in Bosnia. The festival had begun during the Bosnian War and has gone on to become one of the largest in Europe.

Sony Pictures, the production company behind the Andrew Garfield starrer The Amazing Spider-Man, has announced plans that they will be continuing the series for at least two more films.
 
The web-slinging adventure already broke records when it took a record $35 million on its opening day, going past what The Avengers made earlier this year, reported Ace Showbiz.
 
The film has benefitted from almost entirely positive reviews, with lead stars Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone attaining much plaudits for their roles as male and female lead compared to Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst.
 
The film looks likely to be one of the year's highest grossing films.
 
Director Mark Webb, who has not yet been confirmed to direct the follow-up movie, has also said that he left the film's ending open so that audience will want more at the end of the first film.
