Everybody Digs Bill Evans review – absorbing delve into the tumultuous world of the great jazz man

-
Grant Gee’s film thoroughly inhabits the creative and personal torment experienced by the American pianist – with a terrific supporting Bill Pullman turn This elusive, ruminative and very absorbing movie presents its successive scenes like a sequence of unresolved chords carrying the listener on a journey without a destination – and is, incidentally, one of those rare films featuring a wonderful supporting turn that does not undermine or upstage the rest. It’s a film about music. Particularly, about what remains when a musician cannot play and is left to consider the terrible sacrifices made, without conscious consent, to this all-consuming vocation that creates family pain and jealousy almost as a toxic byproduct. It’s a drama to put you in mind of Glenn Gould and Hilary du Pré, sister of Jacqueline. Screenwriter Mark O’Halloran has adapted the 2013 novel Intermission by Owen Martell about renowned jazz pianist Bill Evans. It focuses on a period of emotional devastation for Evans, ...

In Spite Of Criticism, Khloé Kardashian Is Really Not Scared To Tell Kim Kardashian The Truth

-
The Good American founder, 38, gives Kim some constructive criticism in the latest teaser for season 2 of The Kardashians when they talk about the consequences of her remark to Variety that women should "get your f—-ing ass up to work." The SKIMS founder, 41, comments to her sister, "You can see all of the criticism on the Variety article. No one understands you, Khloé replies. Kim says, "I'm embarrassed, and I can see why people were offended. Following the uproar, Kim apologized in a Good Morning America interview. In March, she clarified, "It wasn't a sweeping comment toward women or to feel like I don't value the labor or think that they don't work hard. Kim also discusses how she is going through an independent phase after her divorce from Kanye West. She says, "I genuinely feel like I've discovered my self-esteem." The teaser also includes some behind-the-scenes footage of her getting ready to wear Marilyn Monroe's famous "Happy Birthday Mr. President" outfit as she prepared to walk the red carpet at this year's Met Gala, to which she responds, "Honey, I'm the Marilyn and the Jackie." Kendall Jenner, the younger sister, too, seemed to be relishing her freedom. The 26-year-old founder of 818 Tequila exclaims, "I believe as If I'm becoming my own woman." I aspire to have my own business. As Kendall advances in status, Kourtney becomes a wife and puts on her bridal gown before getting hitched to Travis Barker. When Khloé isn't giving Kim advice, she's still coping with the fallout from her ex Tristan Thompson's affair as she gets ready to give birth to a child. Khloé says of the affair, "Going through what I came through was extremely challenging. Simply put, I feel like a fish in a fishbowl. She adds, "I'm ready," and describes the newborn, who was born early last month, as "very exciting.

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

-
Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...
