The American dream has rarely looked dreamy in a James Gray movie. In the new trailer for Paper Tiger, two brothers discover that chasing a better life can come with a price tag considerably steeper than they expected. Adam Driver stars as Gary Pearl, a former police officer whose younger brother, Irwin (Miles Teller), is looking to get ahead in 1980s New York. Their ambitions seem ordinary enough at first: family, money, a little more stability. But Irwin’s latest business venture brings the brothers into the orbit of the Russian mob, and what begins as an opportunity quickly turns into…
Morrissey has shared a personal tribute to his late manager Peter Katsis, describing him as “a very unusual star” and saying “a world has ended”. Katsis died last Thursday (August 6) at the age of 69, from what has been reported to be the result of complications from congestive heart failure. The Chicago native was a major figure in the music industry, having managed the Smashing Pumpkins, Backstreet Boys, Snoop Dogg and Jane’s Addiction among others, and when his passing was first announced, the former Smiths frontman posted a photograph of Katsis. Now, Morrissey has shared a lengthier tribute, alongside a photograph of Katsis when he went to…
The right has never been able to have a normal relationship with Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Their intense dislike for the progressive, democratic socialist lawmaker is often coupled with a sexual fixation on AOC that rears its head in all manner of perversities — from graphic AI pornography, to Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld’s repeat on-air sexual fantasizing about the congresswoman, to the obsession with her status as a childless woman focused on her career in elected office rather than having a bunch of kids. Over the weekend, when Ocasio-Cortez, 36, decided to share her decision to freeze her eggs with her…
The other Griffin composition, “Top of the World,” finds Maines narrating from a haze between life and death, lamenting “a whole lot of singing that’s never gonna be heard.” The arrangement is the album’s most elaborate. Its orchestral swell is punctuated with dramatic pauses that stretch it out past the six-minute mark, as if the song itself is fading in and out of consciousness. It threatens a long, eerie quiet, an afterlife to be avoided at all costs.The Dixie Chicks named their tour after that song. The original plan was to bring the album’s rootsy sound to small theaters, joined…

C omb through any era of J Balvin’s decades-long career and you’ll find some impressive accolade or bit of Latin-music history sitting in plain sight: Start early on, when he’d just shot out of Medellín’s music scenes, there’s all the massive achievements he set for songs like 2015’s “Ginza”; he even scored a Guinness World Record for longest consecutive run at Number One on the U.S. Hot Latin Songs chart. His 2018 album, Vibras, which featured a young Rosalía when she was just breaking out of Spain, shattered streaming records in its first week, and included the global smash “Mi…
