Eleven years ago, Bentonville, Arkansas didn’t even have a theatre, so it was a surprising offer when founding sponsor Walmart approached Academy Award-winning actress and activist Geena Davis to start a film festival. The Bentonville Film Festival (BFF) reflects the advocacy of the Geena Davis Institute, which the actress founded two decades ago as a research-based organization championing equitable representation in media. As one of the few marquee actors who have helmed film festivals, Davis likes to joke that you don’t always have to be a Robert to have a festival (referring to Robert Redford with the Sundance Film Festival…

Philip Thompson’s “Living Reality” takes viewers on a strange journey through a terrible TV sitcom, where characters recite lines that hack writers think TV characters should say, and a video collage of real moments that contrasts with everything else.

Through the years, there have been some very interesting DC Comics movies that were developed but never quite got made. Of those projects, the one that towers over all of them as the most interesting and the weirdest has to be Tim Burton’s Superman Lives, based on a script by Clerks’ Kevin Smith, produced by Hollywood legend Jon Peters, and starring Nicolas Cage as a totally new (and eventually totally dead) Man of Steel.We did eventually get to (sort of) see Cage’s Superman in a brief cameo during The Flash. But the movie itself would have truly wild — and so was the story…
An anticipated Paris show presenting Dior’s latest men’s collection, set to be released in 2026, and the first designed under ex-Loewe’s Jonathan Anderson direction, made subtle nods to European art and culture. Dior presented its latest men’s collection at the Invalides, a museum complex centered on French military history, using a large black-and-white image of Christian Dior’s original salon as a backdrop. The display, which stretched across the entrance, was meant to signal the 80-year-old brand’s historic connection to French culture.

ArtCleo Roberts-KomireddiIn a grandiose mansion in the Indian city of Kolkata in 1922, European and Indian modernism first met. There, 250 art works hung on the walls. Watercolors by Wassily Kandinsky and Paul Klee sat next to Cubist works from Gaganendranath Tagore and figurative works from Sunayani Devi, displaying the parallel trajectories of the movement. The Indian artists were, in their broader context, rebels who had rejected the academic art styles that were pushed by British colonial art schools across the country. Modernism, in India, was tied up with dismantling colonialism. As legendary Indian art critic Geeta Kapur noted in…
