1 hour ago Commemorative socks are one thing, Jeff Goldblum, but you’re missing a trick not doing official knickers | Stuart Heritage

Many stars blanch at their commodification. But as the master of drollery launches a new line of monogrammed merch, I think he isn’t going far enoughJeff Goldblum is an actor. He has starred in films both cult (Earth Girls Are Easy) and blockbuster (Jurassic Park). He’s worked with Wes Anderson. He’s been part of the MCU. Last year he was in Wicked, a film that made three quarters of a billion dollars and won multiple Oscars. Make no mistake, Jeff Goldblum is an actor.However, Jeff Goldblum is not just an actor. He is also Jeff Goldblum, and this in itself is a full-time job. He releases jazz albums. He conducts interviews where he ums and ahs over every idiosyncratic word choice, like a wan minor European royal choosing hors d’oeuvres from a silver tray. He has developed a system – and this sounds made up, but it isn’t – where he awards people and things a ranking of Goldblums out of a possible 10 Goldblums. When it came time to mark the 25th anniversary of Jurassic Park, how did U...

4 h. ago Vilified, arrested, held incommunicado: that's the price of protest in Britain today | George Monbiot

It seems to me that whatever the charges facing the activists at the Quaker meeting house raid, their fundamental crime is dissentThe faces are different, but it’s the same authoritarianism. Keir Starmer’s team might not look or sound like Donald Trump’s, but its policies on protest and dissent are chillingly similar. So is the reason: coordinated global lobbying by the rich and powerful, fronted by rightwing junktanks.Last week, six young women were having tea and biscuits in the Quaker meeting house in Westminster. Twenty police officers forced open the door and arrested them on conspiracy charges. Had the police discovered a plot to blow up parliament or to poison the water supply? No. It was an openly advertised, routine meeting of a protest group called Youth Demand, discussing climate breakdown and the assault on Gaza.George Monbiot is a Guardian columnistThe Invisible Doctrine: The Secret History of Neoliberalism, by George Monbiot and Peter Hutchison, was published in paperb...

5 h. ago The Bondsman review – the scariest thing about Kevin Bacon’s demonic thriller? His singing

This bizarre drama stars the Hollywood actor as a dead bounty hunter brought back to life by the devil to do his bidding. Sadly, it also includes horrifying country musicThere is nothing very new to see in The Bondsman. How much you enjoy it will depend on how much you enjoy Kevin Bacon (laconic, hard-bitten Kevin Bacon, not Tremors Kevin Bacon and not Footloose Kevin Bacon), how much you enjoy tales of demonic possession in a small town in southern America and how much you enjoy the sound of partly severed heads, blown-out tracheas and bloodied fingers. I am seven degrees of separation from liking this last aspect.But Bacon is Bacon, and if he is slightly sleepwalking through his role here as Hub Halloran, tracker of ne’er-do-wells with warrants against their names, well, it is hardly inappropriate given that, for most of the eight episodes, Hub is dead. He is killed by local heavies hired by Lucky Callahan (Damon Herriman – you’ll know him when you see him), the new boyfriend of H...
