19 hours ago Couldn’t put it down: David Hurn’s photographs of people reading – in pictures

In 1983 David Hurn met one of his photographic heroes, André Kertész , and jokingly suggested that, when he reached Kertész’s age of 89, he would remake his seminal volume, On Reading. True to his word, the Magnum photographer has now done so. Wherever Hurn travelled as a photojournalist, he took images of people reading books, magazines and, lately, on mobile phones. “One of the things that happens in every country in the world is people read,” he says. “It’s lovely to read – the touch of the paper, the ease of being able to check back a few pages. But we’re at a time now where we’re not quite sure whether, in the future, books on paper are going to disappear.”David Hurn’s On Reading is published by RRB Photobooks (£35) Continue reading...

4 hours ago A Real Pain review – Jesse Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin spar in sublimely bittersweet Holocaust tour movie

The stars play Jewish American cousins touring Poland in honour of their grandmother in Eisenberg’s sharp, highly personal comedy boasting an Oscar-tipped performance from CulkinIt’s a slip of a thing, clocking in at a tight 90 minutes; a deft, light-footed amalgamation of two potentially formulaic comedy genres: the road movie and the mismatched buddy flick. But the second directorial venture from actor Jesse Eisenberg, which he also wrote and stars in, is considerably more than the seemingly slight sum of its parts. A Real Pain is a whip-sharp comedy driven by the rattling verbal sparring between uptight, neurotic David (Eisenberg) and his outgoing, unpredictable cousin Benji (Kieran Culkin). It’s also a profound character study – a substantial and emotionally nourishing journey that contains, courtesy of Culkin, perhaps the most devastating final shot of any film you will see this year.It’s a notable step up for Eisenberg as a writer-director. His 2022 debut, When You Finish Savi...

It’s a cold night. But the frontman’s lack of nudity is pretty much the only key element missing from tonight’s ear-ringing encounter with the reunited US band, touring their late-career album Rack (2024). Clad in a black shirt and jeans, Yow prowls the stage, spitting, hollering inchoate insights into the microphone, clamping the cord between his teeth, darkly exhorting the crowd not to stop clapping. He mocks security handing out “little shot glasses of water” – Yow says it in a baby voice – “because someone might be thirsty”.Every few songs, Yow launches himself into the audience, crowd-surfing all the way to the mixing desk. Less of a singer than a sui generis declaimer, he smears misanthropic lyrics across the grain of Duane Denison...
