ByPhilip Galanes March 21, 2019 A teenage relative spends occasional weekends with us in the city, mostly to escape her sheltered life at home. She loves going to museums, shopping and even having dinner with us at our favorite diner. And we like having her. But the last two times she stayed over, we noticed objects of sentimental value were missing. The first time, we assumed we misplaced it. But after the second incident, we believe she took them. No one else had access to them. Should we say something? UNSURE Just don’t call her behavior “a silent cry for help,” O.K.?

Here Are 40 Arnold Schwarzenegger Movies, Ranked from Worst to Best
He goes by many names: Arnie, Ah-nuld, the Terminator, the Governator, the Austrian Oak, Conan the Republican, the Machine. But however one chooses to acknowledge Arnold Schwarzenegger, one can’t help acknowledging his importance in action movies from the 1980s all the way up to now.What he’s less celebrated for is his dramatic work, the movies that don’t require him to swing around bazookas or machine guns, or to beat down bad guys. Arnold didn’t start out as Arnold, after all; Hollywood didn’t catch on to the awesome might of his charisma until a decade into his film career. It took time for him to become the T-800.
