Mark Kermode on… Kathryn Bigelow, a stylish ruffler of feathers

-
From vampire noir to Bin Laden, Point Break to Detroit, the first woman to win an Oscar for best director has never pulled her punches Watching new Jeff Nichols release The Bikeriders , starring Austin Butler and Tom Hardy as 60s Chicago greasers, I was reminded of two other movies: László Benedek’s 1953 Marlon Brando vehicle The Wild One , explicitly cited as an inspiration, and The Loveless , the 1981 feature debut of Kathryn Bigelow , the American film-maker (b.1951) who would go on to become the first woman to win a best director Oscar with her 2008 war drama The Hurt Locker . A symphony of leather-clad posing (with just a touch of Kenneth Anger ), The Loveless was a staple of the late-night circuit in the 80s, often on a double bill with David Lynch’s Eraserhead . Sharing directing credits with Monty Montgomery, Bigelow playfully deconstructed masculinity and machismo in a manner that was one part wry to two parts relish. I remember seeing The Loveless at the Phoenix in East

It Has Been Reported That Harry Styles And Olivia Wilde Attended A Wolf Alice Concert

-
The fact that Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde were seen attending a performance together for the first time demonstrates that the rumors that she was only with him for his celebrity didn't upset them. The Wolf Alice event was held in Los Angeles on Wednesday night, and the pair went there with a group of their close friends. The 38-year-old Wilde appeared elegant in a simple black minidress, while the 28-year-old Styles chose a pair of blue slacks, a sweater vest with a diamond design, and a white button-up shirt. Even though they were seated next to one another at the show, the Don't Worry Darling stars did not engage with one another very often, as evidenced by the images and videos that were posted on Twitter of the couple by audience members. The disturbing charges that were made previously this week by Wilde and ex-fiancé Jason Sudeikis' ex-nanny may have been the cause of the apparent distance that exists between the couple. The unnamed source told the Daily Mail that t

Yolanda Hadid Said The Infamous Remark To Her Daughter Gigi Hadid About Eating Two Almonds

-
When justifying her now-famous comment made in 2014, in which she advised her daughter Gigi Hadid to eat a few almonds, Yolanda Hadid invoked the time-honored defense known as "taken out of context." In a recent interview published on Thursday by People, Hadid answered the contentious comment. She said that when she made it on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, she was only half awake because she had recently undergone surgery to remove her breast implants. Hadid, 58 years old, stated that Gigi called her to tell her she wasn't feeling well and that she heard Hadid say, "Have two almonds" while she was still half asleep. I am trying to remember why there were two of them or what. There was no coherence or logic to it at all. This is such a ridiculous story that is being told, and it has absolutely nothing to do with how we live our lives. While the Bravolebrity was talking to Gigi on the phone, Gigi gave her some advice, telling her to consume a few nuts and chew

It has an exclusive first peek at the upcoming third season of Chrissy Teigen's show Chrissy's Court, which is about to begin airing. Teigen, who is 36 years old at the time of the sizzle, says something along the lines of, "I'm Judge Chrissy, and in this courthouse, the charm will get you wherever." And if the fiery and funny trailer is any indication, the next ten episodes of the Court will likely include the most mayhem it has ever seen. In the third season of the show, Judge Chrissy will preside over cases involving modest claims, one of which consists of a plaintiff who causes Teigen to display a look of amazement when she reveals to the model and author that a man prostituted her ass in exchange for some chicken wings. Teigen confronts the plaintiff in a different instance involving a haunted doll by inquiring as to whether or not the individual is confident that they are not, in fact, cohabitating with the beauty. In addition, Teigen's mother, Vilailuck
