57 m. ago The Names by Florence Knapp – the verdict on spring’s hottest debut

In this strikingly assured sliding doors tale, three alternate narratives unfold, showing how the choice of a name influences a lifeWhat’s in a name? More than Shakespeare might have led us to believe, according to research. Ever since 1985, when a study found that people tend to prefer the letters of their own initials over the other letters of the alphabet, research has confirmed the name-letter effect, proving that not only do consumers favour brands matching their initials, they are actually more likely to donate to relief efforts for a natural disaster such as a hurricane if they share an initial with that disaster. How far the name-letter effect influences our bigger life decisions – where we live, our choices of career or life partner – remains contentious, but there are clear indicators that, far from serving simply as identifiers, the names we are given at birth have the power to influence our psychological, social and economic outcomes.Florence Knapp’s strikingly assu...

2 h. ago Untold: Shooting Guards review – a devastating tale of elite sport’s ruthless cruelty

These NBA stars had it all – until a changing room prank tore their lives apart. This documentary sensitively examines two basketball players’ struggle to cope with success, and the tragic consequencesElite sport has millions of stories about kids who didn’t quite make it, but the bigger tragedy is the young adult who gets to the big leagues then throws it all away, because they can’t cope with the life that success brings. It is peculiarly upsetting to watch from afar as a rare talent is undone by a personality flaw that has nothing to do with the game itself: this lad can do the difficult bit and get the ball in the net, but he can’t withstand the pressure of the media’s gaze, or the disappointment of sometimes not being picked? Can’t someone please help him?The reliable US documentary strand Untold has found numerous variations on this sad old story over the years, and it’s turned up a devastating one in Shooting Guards, which tracks the parallel lives of basketball pros Gilbert ...
