46 h. ago Barcelona show gulf in quality again as stunned Chelsea hope for miracle | Sophie Downey

It was not how the script was meant to go for the Blues in their quest for an elusive Champions League trophyAs the final whistle blew at the Estadi Johan Cruyff, the frustration on the faces of the Chelsea players shone through. Lucy Bronze chucked her headband on to the floor in anger; Erin Cuthbert shared frustrated words with the referee; the rest meanwhile just stood on the pitch looking stunned with the cacophony of noise from jubilant Barcelona fans rubbing salt in the freshest of wounds.This was not how the script was meant to go. Defeat at the hands of Barcelona – with such a gulf in quality on the field – was meant to be a thing of years gone by; a distant memory buried in the history books of that painful final of 2021. For Chelsea have been building a squad with the clear intention of lifting the coveted Champions League trophy themselves. Big money has been spent on coveted assets – the acquisition of Mayra Ramírez and N...

5 d. ago The Wedding Banquet review – muddled gay comedy remake plays it too straight

Fire Island director Andrew Ahn’s update of Ang Lee’s seminal 1993 film works hard to differentiate itself but it’s awkwardly stuck between serious and sillyMany remakes are utterly pointless, whether they’re disregarding what made a movie good or interesting in the first place, or paying such slavish homage that a second version becomes redundant, rather than a worthy variation. If nothing else, the contemporary reconfiguration of The Wedding Banquet passes the remake test handily. Ang Lee’s original 1993 film is about a bisexual Taiwanese immigrant, living happily with his male partner, who hastily arranges a lavish (and, emotionally speaking, fake) wedding to a woman to please his visiting parents; director/co-writer Andrew Ahn, who shares screenplay credit with original co-writer James Schamus, relocates the story from 1993 Manhattan to 2025 Seattle, and contends with a whole different set of social rules and actual laws in the process.Ahn is so acutely aware of how times have c...
