Sitting with it for almost a week, Lily Allen’s latest album is a triumph in so many ways. Pop has had to endure Charli XCX’s vapid Brat and Taylor Swift’s self-indulgent musical diaries of late. West End Girl, however, is not only taut and inventive, it evokes ambitious,…

Idlewild have long been one of Britain’s very best bands. I spoke with them as they released first album in six years (it’s quite wonderful). “…around that time [of 100 Broken Windows] I was unselfconscious. If I was reading a book by Gertrude Stein or on postmodernism, I…

the ending of THE GODFATHER, the best american movie ever made, doesn't work without diane keaton's final look --- at the realization of who she's married and what her life is going to become and what corruption lurks behind closed doors. unforgettable, inimitable work. RIP.

This is absolutely gutting. Another screen legend has left us. A timeless icon. RIP, Diane. She’s left a body of work will live on. There’s no doubt about that.

Diane Keaton, whose long, versatile career was indelibly highlighted by her Academy Award-winning performance as Woody Allen’s titular love interest in the actor-writer-director’s 1977 romantic comedy “Annie Hall,” has died. She was 79. variety.com/2025/more/news…
