Clips of the performance have clocked up millions of views online and it has been nominated for Bafta’s Memorable Moment of 2024. In the...

I went on a Disney cruise without children – this is what happened

Don’t get me wrong: I like Toy Story as much as the next parent. But the Hey Howdy Breakfast, with a singing guitarist striking up a chord every five minutes, and Woody, Jessie and Bullseye dancing as we tucked into waffles shaped like Mickey Mouse wasn’t my idea of fun. “It’s a bit much at this time of the morning,” my sister Susie sighed, eyeing ...

The Incredibly Talented Lucy review – a sparkling story, with an enraging twist ending

The makers of Channel 4’s reality/talent show The Piano probably thought they had a hit on their hands when they coined the format, but the moment they knew they had cracked it must have been when they found Lucy, a 13-year-old girl from Halifax, West Yorkshire. Blind, neurodivergent and given to throwing her head from side to side during performances in the manner of Stevie Wonder, Lucy was exactly what The Piano – which invited amateurs from...

‘I get a little stir-crazy’: Jennifer Connelly on David Bowie, working with family and going back to college

Jennifer Connelly is on a Zoom call from her home in Brooklyn, jetlagged after attending Louis Vuitton’s pre-fall 2024 show in Shanghai, which does not bode well: she is known to have been reticent in past interviews, and sometimes while working. When she made A Beautiful Mind, the 2001 movie for which she won an Oscar for playing the wife of schizophrenic mathematician John Nash, the co-producer Brian Grazer was unnerved by her reserve. “It was...
