The London crowd – almost 5,000 miles from her hometown of Baskin, Louisiana, population 254 – were fully signed up to the 31-year-old Yellowstone star’s yee-hawing, “blue-collar” brand of country straight off the back.

Quintessentially Irish review – Pierce Brosnan weighs in on scattergun study of Irishness

It features a definition of “the craic” but, frustratingly, this long, meandering documentary about Irishness contains only very small quantities of actual fun. It’s a follow-up from film-maker Frank Mannion to his 2022 doc Quintessentially British, but feels like a commission from Aer Lingus: something to watch inflight from Boston to Dublin, soothingly bland, relaxingly dull. Though to be fair, Mannion gets a big laugh when he archly asks a...

Tony Bennett, suave singer of I Left My Heart in San Francisco whose career spanned 70 years – obituary

Elaha review – sex, patriarchy and second-generation identity

There is a heartfelt and courageous performance from 28-year-old Syrian-born, German-based actor Bayan Layla in this drama about sex, patriarchy and second-generation immigrant identity. It is a drama which hits the buttons squarely and efficiently, but might perhaps have played better as a three-part TV drama. Layla plays Elaha, a young woman of Kurdish family background in a German town (director Milena Aboyan is herself German-based and...

Across all the many millions of words written about Amy Winehouse since her death in 2011, it tends to be the darkness in her story that muscles its way into the foreground. And there is plenty of shade to linger on (she did, after all, go back to black), but to do that can mean overlooking a single, inalienable fact: she was also an absolute laugh...

Critics, cancellation and cleanskin wine: the Australian novels satirising the art world

The art world can be a space of wonder, beauty, bravery, connection and community. As an art critic and art historian, I’ve spent the past decade swimming in these waters.
