8 d. ago The Legend of Ochi review – visually dazzling throwback kids movie

There’s an 80s vibe to this ET-adjacent family adventure with Willem Dafoe and Emily Watson, relying on impressive practical effectsThe Legend of Ochi creates such a complete visual experience that studio heads who have led countless multimillion-dollar trips to the green-screen warehouse should hang their heads in shame when they see it.It’s not that writer-director Isaiah Saxon and his collaborators have abstained, monk-like, from modern technology in assembling this children’s fantasy film; though it consciously throws back to puppetry, matte paintings and other practical effects that were more common in live-action family films of the 1980s, The Legend of Ochi clearly makes use of digital tricks, too. (When its trailer first dropped, online hordes were even convinced – wholly incorrectly – that its relatively low-budget world-building must be the product of generative AI tech.) But all of these non-AI techniques, as well as vivid location shooting in Romania, have been pulled to...

1 week ago Same River, Twice: Putin’s War on Women by Sofi Oksanen – review

This harrowing study of the Russian leader’s weaponising of sexual violence argues that misogyny goes hand in hand with imperialismIn 1944, the Red Army pushed the Germans out of the Baltic state of Estonia. Soon afterwards, Soviet officers took away Sofi Oksanen’s great-aunt for interrogation. It was night. When she returned the next morning Oksanen’s young relative appeared unscathed. In fact, she had been raped. She could only mutter a few words: “Jah, ära”, or “Yes, please don’t”.The consequences of her unspoken ordeal were lifelong. As Oksanen relates it, her great-aunt became mute. She never married, had children or a relationship. Nor were the men who abused her punished. After the Soviet reoccupation – which saw Estonia erased from Europe’s map – she lived quietly with her ageing mother. Black-and-white family photos and the stories that went with them were hidden.Same River, Twice: Putin’s War on Women by Sofi Oksanen is published by HarperVia (£16.99). To support the Guard...

1 week ago A new start after 60: I had a breakdown, the old me died – and I cried for the first time in my life

David Williams lost his mother, his marriage fell apart and he was diagnosed with a brain tumour. But it took one more blow to bring him to tearsDavid Williams was 17 when his mother died of cancer. But he didn’t cry when his mum’s friend knocked on the door in the dead of night to give him and his sisters the news. He was the eldest of three, “the adult male” as his father had left years earlier.Instead, he bottled up his feelings and carried on working. Williams, now 61, says: “Something happens to you in that situation that isn’t your choice.” This was 1980, and the family lived on the Lache social housing estate in Chester, which was, he says, “a tough place. Lads didn’t go around crying.”Tell us: has your life taken a new direction after the age of 60? Continue reading...

2 w. ago Amid all the warnings about a ‘dementia tsunami’, here are the things you should know | Devi Sridhar

When we dig into new research we see why all the alarming headlines are written, but also that science is bringing new hope Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias were the leading cause of death in Britain in 2021 (followed by Covid-19 and heart disease), and a top 10 cause of death in the United States. Dementia is a general term used for several diseases that destroy nerve cells and damage the brain, leading to difficulty with memory, thinking and other cognitive functions. Behind those statistics is a heartbreaking condition for individuals (and their loved ones) as they become confused and disoriented, struggle to recognise family, friends and caregivers, and lose the ability to live independently.Recent studies from across the world have highlighted that dementia cases are likely to rise dramatically. For instance, an analysis of 15,000 middle-aged US adults in Nature Medicine in January 2025 found that in study participants, the lifetime risk of developing dementia after 55 w...

The latest book from artist Lee Shulman, who has created the world’s largest private collection of amateur colour transparencies, has an often startling sartorial focusIt started with an impulsive eBay purchase. When Lee Shulman received the box of vintage slides he had bought from an anonymous seller, the British visual artist and film-maker could not believe the treasure he had accidentally uncovered. Beyond the impeccable quality of each image, taken in the 1950s by unnamed photographers, these were glimpses at everyday moments from everyday lives long since lost. Birthdays, family gatherings, holidays, parties, graduations – once cherished memories lovingly captured but now forgotten.Bought in 2017, that box was the catalyst for what Shulman refers to as a “complete obsession”.
