All the latest Melbourne updates as last 16 continues Pegula ends Keys’ reign | Follow on Bluesky | Mail DanielThey’re away now, Swiatek holding, while on Court, Sinner serves out to lead a ticking Darderi 6-1 6-3.Inglis, passed over for a wildcard, saved a match point in the first round of qualifying, then played a decider in the last, and this is an amazing occasion for her: an Australia Day headline slot against a great in the making. Having struggled on tour for years, she now receives £243,000 – great stuff, though she did get lucky with Naomi Osaka’s withdrawal.

59 h. ago I Want Your Sex review – vampy Olivia Wilde almost saves Gregg Araki’s tame dom

Sundance film festival: As a provocative artist using sex to wield power, the actor is electric but the writer-director’s return to his campy, dayglo roots is largely underwhelmingWhile Sundance is traditionally focused on the importance of looking to the future of American film, a lineup filled with more first-timers than any other major festival, this year has been all about looking back.

2 w. ago Heated Rivalry review – these physically perfect people have so much sex it’s tedious

This steamy queer romance between ice hockey rivals is packed with constant shots of muscular bottoms in fancy hotel rooms. But a bit more character development or emotional investment wouldn’t go amissI suspect that Chala Hunter is still on a recuperative retreat somewhere. Until about May, I would think. For she was the intimacy coordinator on Heated Rivalry and she has earned a break.For those not aware: intimacy coordinators gained prominence in the aftermath of the #MeToo movement, when assorted testimonies from actors (largely female) made public and unignorable the shocking fact that actors (largely male) and directors (largely male) will often (largely always) try to get away with more than has been contracted for once they are naked with A N Other person.
