I appreciate the family sharing their Jack with all of us. There's a world of fans who've been entertained and touched by his art and it's just effing cool to see him hanging with a fellow genius LA artist, Joni Mitchell. We cherish our great artists and wish them joyful days!

Marlon Brando's acclaimed screen career is the benchmark for Hollywood's Golden Age. Off-screen, Brando's diet was similarly the stuff of legend, leading to his yo-yoed appearances.

Hepburn and her mother moved to London in December 1948 so that the 19-year-old could study ballet at Rambert Dance Company. They settled in a small apartment in Mayfair, where Hepburn's mother got a gig as an apartment manager.

If we're talking cinema (not marketing campaigns or merch drops, however captivating), then Josh Safdie has created a movie that has captured something of the world in 2026.

The Welsh-born actor had spent much of the decade living in the United States, where he split his time between the stage and the screen, building an utterly respectable career. He had played a compassionate doctor in David Lynch's The Elephant Man, a murderous ventriloquist in the cult thriller Magic, and the real-life convicted child murderer Bruno Hauptmann in the TV movie The Lindbergh Kidnapping Case, for which he had won his first Emmy.

The esteemed film-maker was licking his wounds: his most recent picture, Far from the Madding Crowd, which imbued its 19th-century rural characters with an anachronistic King's Road style and panache, had flopped stateside. Childers approached the date with mixed feelings. He adored Schlesinger's previous movie, the jazzy Darling, starring Julie Christie as a model on the make, and had seen it three times.
