Staying in with the old: the best films to watch on New Year’s Eve

-
For those not going out to celebrate, you can still party with Harry and Sally, play cards with Jack Lemmon and make merry hell at the Overlook Hotel At the end of any especially troublesome year it’s always good to revisit The Apartment, Billy Wilder’s brilliantly bleak comedy of office politics and festive bad cheer. It memorably ends on the stroke of midnight as heartsick Fran Kubelik (Shirley MacLaine) abandons a drunken new year’s party to be with hapless, jobless CC Baxter (Jack Lemmon) instead. Is The Apartment suggesting that Kubelik and Baxter then live happily ever after? Probably not, because I’ve never been convinced that these two lovers are going to stay the course. They’re too mismatched and desperate; their wounds are still too fresh. What the ending gives us is the next best thing: a sudden sense of hope and freedom, with everything packed in boxes except for a bottle, two glasses and a deck of cards. Nothing to lose and nowhere to go. “Shut up and deal.” A clean brea...

Kim Kardashian Has Trouble Walking Up The Stairs In Her Tight Dolce & Gabbana Outfit

-
Following her Dolce & Gabbana collection presentation during a fashion show in Milan, Kim Kardashian attended the after-party wearing a figure-hugging, silver, and glittering Dolce & Gabbana gown. The gown featured revealing tie-ups on the neckline and on the legs and thighs. And the founder of SKIMS, 41 at the time, had trouble walking in it. On Sunday, Kardashian's lifelong friend Stephanie Shepherd posted a video to TikTok where she can be seen jogging up a flight of stairs, making a sharp turn to the side, and then climbing the stairs with the assistance of a railing. After first attempting to ascend the steps by side-stepping, Kardashian swiftly concludes that the only option available to her is to hop. On another set of stairs, Kardashian is seen getting assistance from other people, who are holding her arms while she takes incredibly tiny steps to reach the top. Is there a lift available? Before she tackles yet another flight of stairs, she inquires. This time, though, someone is holding up her dress to ensure it does not get stuck in her high silver heel. The stairs were not the only obstacle that stood in the way of Kardashian's ability to look beautiful in her elegant outfit. Shepherd also provided a video of Kardashian attempting to get into a car but failing miserably. The star of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" bounces up into the sofa, and she quickly slides into position. However, as the amusing video closes, she cannot sit upright and is seen leaning back onto the seat. Shepherd commented next to the humorous footage; I'll let you devise a caption for this. In the comments page, numerous people expressed their admiration for Kardashian's abilities. One fan said that god provides his most challenging battles to his most excellent soldiers, while another fan added, "The way she jumps those steps lmaooo queen."

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...
