Writer-director Taylor Sheridan does everything he can to jack up the excitement, with bombings, shootings, stabbings, fires, lightning strikes, parachute jumps into fires, people exploding into flames. Nothing is too cheap, and yet, like ...

  You’re one year old. The food your mother is trying to feed you is all wrong, and she must bribe you with stalks of broccoli. You’re 2½ years old. You want to read.

It looks darker without really looking darker. You touch the same strap on the other shoe so it will have the same amount of Touch. It looks darker t...

Speaking during Advertising Week Europe 2021 she explained: “I don’t tend to get star-struck. The one time I did was Michael Palin. I lost my mind because I think Monty Python were a huge influence for me growing up because I had older siblings that probably showed me the Life Of Brian a long time before I really should have seen it. “It was at the National TV awards and Michael Palin was sat two foot away from me and I just started crying.” During the Advertising Week panel, Coughlin w...

05/11/21 In a classic scene in the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail, a cart carrying corpses is being wheeled through the muddy streets of a peasant village. A crier managing the cart exhorts the locals to “bring out your dead!” so they may ostensibly be carried away. A local carries out an obviously alive old man, and insists that he is dead, or is old “and will be any moment.” Following a brief and humorous exchange, we can only say things did not end well for the old man. At le...

Tate’s bizarrely censorious attitude does a disservice to The Making of Rodin 2/5 This major show of work by the great French artist shows his attention to details of the human frame. But why be so prissy about his morals? 11 May 2021 • 1:12pm Food for Thought: Rodins The Thinker (1903) at Tate Moderns new show Credit: Geoff Pugh Two lovers are snogging on a landing at Tate Modern.

It’s not a trait often seen in Star Wars. The heroes of the original trilogy are protected from harm by the infamously terrible aim of the stormtroopers they encounter. The heroes of the prequel trilogy guarded themselves via superb reflexes and laser swords, which offered fail-safe protection against all blaster fire until the moment they didn’t. For as many people as are seen wearing armor in this universe, it has never seemed to do very much. Until now. Din Djarin is a quick draw, a cra...

‘Why we survive: BC boundary towns struggle without Albertans during pandemic Jennifer Coffman didn’t expect to get hit with a double whammy at her restaurant in the tiny community of Field just west of the Alberta-British Columbia boundary this year.
