6 d. ago There were two paths for America and Lilith Fair was one of them. Sadly it chose the other | Emma Brockes

The all-female tour was a counterpoint to the era’s misogyny. We could do with some of that promise todayThere’s an argument to be made that the first person in the US to spot the oncoming freight train of the Maga movement – fully 17 years before the first election of Trump – wasn’t a political forecaster or a bearded contrarian but the rock star Sheryl Crow. In 1999, Crow appeared at a press conference backstage at Lilith Fair, the all-women music festival, during which she was asked about a disastrous appearance she had recently made at Woodstock ‘99. This was the Woodstock reboot in upstate New York marred by violence, sexual assault and an angry male crowd that heckled the few female artists present with, “show us your tits.” Crowe, smiling bleakly, said, “I’m hoping it doesn’t represent our future as a nation or the youth of America.”Well, as they say: ha.

At 83, the star of The Princess Bride, Fright Night and so much more is carving out a new career as a podcaster. He remembers the movies that defined him – and working with ‘malevolent’ Michael Winner on The SentinelChris Sarandon is doing great, thanks. The veteran actor looks extremely well for his 83 years, over Zoom from his home office in Connecticut, exuding warmth and geniality. More than once in our conversation – filled with digressions, anecdotes and impersonations – he talks about how he doesn’t take anything for granted.“I occasionally do autograph conventions at Comic Cons,” he says. “And I was standing and talking to [fellow actor] Giancarlo Esposito.
