65 m. ago The Guardian view on Farage’s cynical pitch: Labour must be bolder to see off the threat | Editorial

The Reform UK leader spies a route to power through appealing to blue collar voters. His speech is another wake-up call for Sir Keir Starmer’s governmentLast July, concluding his election victory speech after winning in Clacton, Nigel Farage announced that after inflicting grievous damage on the Conservative party that night, Reform UK would now “be coming for Labour”. Since then, on issues such as the nationalisation of Britain’s beleaguered steel industry, Mr Farage has carefully positioned his party as sympathetic to working-class concerns and fears. His heavily-trailed speech on Tuesday, in Westminster, was the most direct attempt yet to present himself as a new spokesperson for Labour’s traditional blue-collar voters.The most talented and cynical political opportunist of his generation, Mr Farage knows where the openings lie. Labour has tied itself in unedifying knots over its deeply unpopular cuts to the winter fuel allowance, and agonised over reversing the Tories’ ...

3 h. ago Sudden Fear: the 1952 noir that cemented Joan Crawford’s star – again

With this tale of love turned sour, Crawford forged an unprecedented Hollywood archetype: the now-prevalent actor-turned-executive producerGet our weekend culture and lifestyle email“It’s the kind of a drama we used to call a thriller,” Joan Crawford said in a radio appearance in 1952, teasing an upcoming film. “In fact, it’s so exciting that the first time I read the script some friends rang my doorbell about 9 o’clock at night and I was afraid to open the door.” Imagine, for a second, a frightened Joan Crawford home alone, stirred up by the story that would soon become her next movie: Sudden Fear.In the collective memory, Crawford is imagined with fear always in mind. Fear of being disliked or forgotten, fear of the box office, of bad lighting, even fear of wire hangers.

4 h. ago From legal issues to reshoots: is the Michael Jackson biopic cursed?

A two-part film looking at the King of Pop’s career is undergoing more behind-the-scenes issues, including the problem of how to address troubling allegationsAs adult audiences for non-spectacle theatrical releases have waned post-Covid, one subgenre has survived long enough to feel like a franchise unto itself: the pop musician biopic. Not every new entry is a Bohemian Rhapsody-level smash; some, like the dreary Amy Winehouse biography Back to Black or the misbegotten Whitney Houston movie I Wanna Dance with Somebody, outright flop. But there are still enough success stories like A Complete Unknown ($140m worldwide, eight Oscar nominations) to assure every pantheon pop artist in America will probably receive this treatment eventually.“Eventually” has become the operative word for Michael, a biopic of globally revered but controversial pop star Michael Jackson. The film from Antoine Fuqua was supposed to have been released by now; it was originally set to come out in April 2025. Aft...
