Film critic at TIME. I never travel far without a little Big Star.
You've got to be F-ing kidding me. This is what we now consider a "win"?
Only a person who doesn't love dogs would think this is a good idea.
I have mixed feelings about DEVIL PRADA 2, but will say I was stunned to see Miranda Priestly wearing a shirt I actually own: a ‘90s era Ellen Tracy silk blouse. (I have an embarrassing number of these, thrifted over the years.) Go Molly Rogers!
Yeah, "tough on crime" is always the first thing we're looking for in a pope.
Style inspo for the rest of 2026, and probably my life, is Ian McKellen in THE CHRISTOPHERS (which I adored.)
Calvin Tomkins, age 100, is gone. Read this wonderful book, if you haven’t already.
Who once uttered the immortal words, “Dunk your whiskers in that.” To a snake.
Author photo for when she writes her first book. Don’t laugh, I think she’s gonna do it.
Evening finery, recording for posterity before dismantling. The pins are a mix of antique paste (very sparkly!), sterling with marcasite, and garden-variety midcentury rhinestones. Though I love it all!
Need a laugh today? You can't do better than @david-rooney.bsky.social's review of AVATAR: FIRE AND ASH. www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...
“Generated by AI, which can make mistakes” LIKE CONFUSING TOM WAITS FOR NEIL YOUNG?
I'm sorry, but this movie looks like it was dropped in a mud puddle.
Being accused of using ChatGPT because I liked a movie someone else didn't. These are truly f**ed-up times we're living in.
The WICKED people are coming to my (private) Facebook page too. I can see they're having as much trouble parsing the scrambled messages of these movies as I am.
I wish, instead of WICKED fervor, there could be a renewed interest in L. Frank Baum's books—not just The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, but the whole Oz series, with their great John R. Neill illustrations. Like the princess who keeps a whole cabinet of different screw-on heads...
The WICKED bullies are out and about, beware! Pissed-off flying monkeys are nicer.
