The wealthy town of Potomac, Maryland, is just outside of Washington DC, and there’s drama to be found there. The Real Housewives of Potomac follows the personal and professional lives of a group of women. Some of the Housewives who have been featured on the show include Ashley Darby, a Miss District of Columbia Pageant winner who became a stepmom to a 21 and 24-year-old when she was just 22; philanthropist Gizelle Bryan; and Robyn Dixon.

Mickey Rourke. Immortals is the sort of action tentpole that you can’t imagine changed much on its way off of the storyboards and onto the screen: Under the exacting (if wackadoo) hand of director Tarsem Singh, each frame is perfectly composed, each vista immaculately rendered in a computer, and each actor hits his mark in front of a green screen with face, hair, and six-pack abs in perfect shape.

Fiona Apple reached into the past to confront her rapist, middle-school bullies, and herself. Photo: Courtesy of Fiona Apple Fetch the Bolt Cutters is like nothing Fiona Apple has done before, but the album is still recognizable as something only she could create. It’s purposefully unvarnished, a raw export from the inside of her brain: Her voice stretches and loops, morphing into Vipassana chants and spooky, surreal yelps; in the middle of one song, she messes up and mutters, “Ah, fuck, shit”; in another, she laughs as her dog, Mercy, licks her face.

If you liked Beyoncé’s “Partition” video but thought it had a bit too much Beyoncé in it, here’s the video for the Weeknd’s Fifty Shades of Grey song, “Earned It.” Warning: There are a lot of butts in this. So many butts, and yet still no room for the ifs and the ands.

This is not that scene. Warning: This post spoils the end of Damien Chazelle’s Babylon. When Nicole Kidman strode into that AMC Theatre to record her now-iconic pre-roll, did she have any idea she’d be anticipating the most popular scene of the 2022 awards season? At a moment when the theatrical experience feels imperiled, Oscar-winning directors have treated us to shot after shot of characters gazing beatifically up at the silver screen, transported out of their ordinary, humdrum lives through the wondrous power of cinema.

Hand to GodMCC at the LucilleLortel TheaterWritten by Robert AskinsDirected by Moritz von StuelpnagelCast Steven Boyer Geneva CarrMarc Kudisch Alex Mandell Michael Oberholtzer Sarah Stiles For centuries, theatrical antiheroes have vied for attention by going to extremes, but Tyrone, in Robert Askins’s Hand to God, may be the first, onstage at least, to bite off an ear. He’s as violent and vengeful as Sweeney Todd, and, despite his evangelical upbringing, as comically foul-mouthed as any Mamet mook.

Denzel Washington in The Iceman Cometh. The revival of Eugene O’Neill’s The Iceman Cometh — now at the Bernard B. Jacobs under the direction of George C. Wolfe and strapped with heavy star power in Denzel Washington — is the kind of production that puts prospective audience members off “classics” for good. Whether you’re a card-carrying member of the O’Neill Society or you simply flipped a coin at the TKTS booth, you’d be within your rights to run screaming from the theater by the first of the show’s two intermissions.

When Marin Ireland yells, cries, or laughs, it fills the room from top to bottom. Not that any of those are that hard in this particular room. Ireland just finished starring in a Jack Serio’s production of Anton Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya. Set in an 85 seat loft at Home Studios, after previously playing a 40 seat apartment, it’s performed with house lights on (until they’re not), and audience members scattered around the periphery of the room, staring at the actors and each other.

Here’s how rough Hollywood can be on older women: In the new comedy Tammy, Susan Sarandon is cast as Melissa McCarthy’s grandmother, despite the fact that only 24 years separate them in age. This isn’t the first time an actress has seemed way too young to sire her screen kin (in one classic case, Anne Bancroft was only eight years older than her The Graduate screen-daughter Katharine Ross), and it’s not even the most egregious example in Tammy, where McCarthy also cast the 11-years-older Allison Janney as her mother.
