Bad Style Alicia & Michael in London The UK premiere of The Light Between Oceans tonight in London. Was there a report recently that Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender broke up?

Movie Reviews and Previews Ben Affleck is MATH-MAN The Accountant is dumb. It is so, so dumb, and I won’t try to defend it as anything other than a hella dumb movie. But it’s that special kind of stupid—a movie so ludicrously, delightfully dumb that it comes out the other side fun. Everything about The By Sarah • Oct 19, 2016 01:44 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Tom Cruise: Run and Top Gun Jack Reacher: Never Stop Stopping, which is not the real title but the title of the underappreciated Andy Samberg parody film earlier this year, opens this weekend.

Books Intro for October 19, 2016 Dear Gossips, A few months ago, I posted about Author: The JT LeRoy Story, a documentary exploring how writer Laura Albert created a separate creative persona and had someone else play that persona, fooling the literary and celebrity community for years.

Movie Reviews and Previews Michael Fassbender revamps Assassin’s Creed The first trailer for Michael Fassbender’s Assassin’s Creed was not awesome.
