Joshua Pack, the 51‑year‑old co‑CEO of the $50 billion investment firm Fortress, was found dead in a locked bedroom of his rented London mansion after a “screaming” argument with his wife over airline tickets, an inquest heard. The couple, high‑school sweethearts and parents of four, had been drinking and were under stress from moving from Texas to London and from a major European expansion deal; the argument escalated, with Pack allegedly threatening to kill himself and handling a knife before retreating to the locked room, where he later died.

#Fortress (2021) is an abysmal movie. The protagonist, with whom we are apparently meant to sympathize, being a cryptocurrency scammer trying to fleece his parent for more money, was not a good start, and it went downhill from there. Pretty much everyone's acting was either completely over the top or wooden as Hell. The plot was ludicrous; the ubiquitous special effects mist and random camera angles, annoying. The final straw, at which point I just stopped and deleted it from the TiVo, was when the character who had been speaking with a vaguely Australian accent for the entire movie until that point apologized to another character for putting on a British accent. Apparently, they made a sequel at the same time. Avoid both. #USMovies
