People in LA after weeks of heat waves and running their ACs non-stop finally sleeping with their window open listening to the rain and police sirens:
Spending the afternoon at a screening of Netflix's 'La Bola Negra,' followed by a reception with the directors and cast.
Ethan Hawke and Betty Gilpin shared their thoughts on The Lowdown’s second season with my newsletter, talking about Lee Raybon, those awfully messy truths, and what happens when his personal life catches up with him.

I interviewed Josh Hartnett, Charlie Heaton, Mackenzie Davis, and creator Jesse McKeown to unpack the ominous finale of their Netflix series 'Below.'

For 'Tenzing,' Tom Hiddleston and Genden Phuntsok met for the first time in Nepal, then spent nearly a week trekking toward Everest Base Camp before filming.
The film's team discussed that journey, including shooting on real mountains.
