"Die Hard with a Vengeance" (1995), directed by John McTiernan, was the third installment in the iconic "Die Hard" franchise. The film marked Bruce Willis's return as NYPD detective John McClane, and this time he's teamed up with Samuel L. Jackson's character, Zeus Carver, to thwart a series of terrorist attacks in New York City. The production faced various challenges, including living up to the high expectations set by the successful first two films. McTiernan and the creative team had to deliver a fresh and compelling story while maintaining the trademark intensity and wit that defined the franchise.
The film's production involved extensive location shooting in New York City, showcasing iconic landmarks and adding an authentic urban backdrop to the action sequences. The chemistry between Willis and Jackson, the dynamic direction by McTiernan, and the screenplay's clever blend of suspense and humor contributed to the film's success. "Die Hard with a Vengeance" not only continued the franchise's tradition of delivering thrilling action but also expanded the scope and stakes of the series, solidifying its status as a standout entry in the action genre.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
