Many freelancers and businesses don’t know or have the time to learn enough HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to code a website from scratch — and that’s okay. With the right tools, you can easily and quickly create a custom website that provides seamless experiences for your visitors on the front end and users on the back end. These tools fall into two major categories: CMS platforms and website builders. While both offer built-in features, pre-designed templates, and extensions for creating a custom site without coding or even knowing how to code, they present two very different approaches to creating and managing a website. Let’s take a closer look at these two approaches below so you can decide which tool is right for your site.
Anne Hathaway is one of the most recognizable actresses on the planet. She has been the star of major motion pictures like The Princess Diaries, The Devil Wears Prada, and Love and Other Drugs. Hathaway has been a part of big-budget franchises like Alice in Wonderland, The Dark Knight Rises, and Ocean’s 8, and won an Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in Les Miserable. Hathaway has been in some of the biggest movies in the world and worked alongside some of the most well-regarded filmmakers.
Hathaway has also lent her talent to smaller films and has a strong track record working in independent film. Independent film is a nebulous term now as it can sometimes be used as a marketing tool to highlight a smaller character-centric piece that still has major funding. Independent cinema is self-financed by a non-major studio. Despite their appearance, movies like Colossal and One Day are not independent films. With that in mind, these are Anne Hathaway’s best independent films ranked.
In 2005, Hathaway gained a certain star image as a clean wholesome family entertainer due to her parts in both Princess Diaries movies and Ella Enchanted. Havoc was a major attempt to show general audiences she was more than just the star of fun princess-related movies. Hathaway plays Allison Lang, a wealthy Los Angeles teen who becomes bored with her life and begins to tour the slums of the city, becoming obsessed with gang culture.

Havoc was a collaboration between Academy Award-winning filmmaker Barbara Kopple and Academy Award-winning screenwriter Stephan Gaghan and was a good career move for Hathaway to work with such acclaimed talent. While reviews for the film were mixed, Hathaway gave a powerful performance and one that showed just what she was capable of.
While Hathaway’s role in Don Jon is a cameo, it is such a great cameo, and she makes every moment of her screen time. Hathaway appears as actress Emily Lombardo, who is the star of a romantic comedy within the film titled Special Someone. Her co-star is Conner Verreaux, played by Channing Tatum.
Hathaway did the bit part as a favor to Don Jon star and director Joseph Gordon Levitt, who she worked with on both Havoc and The Dark Knight Rises. She also co-starred alongside Channing Tatum on Havoc back in 2005, making it a mini-reunion for the trio. It might be just a cameo, but Hathaway makes the most of her brief screen time. Hathaway’s latest film, Armageddon Time, might have been a box office disappointment, but it received positive reviews and is worth a watch. Directed by James Gray (The Lost City of Z), Armageddon Time is loosely based on his childhood and focuses on a young Jewish-American boy who struggles with expectations from his family and growing up in a world of privilege and inequality which is highlighted when he befriends an African American student.

Hathaway plays Ester, the mother of the lead character. She is strict and critical but also has a sense of warmth to her. She is a woman who just wants her son to be okay. It is a complex role, and Hathaway walks the tightrope to make her character engaging for the audience.
