Luca Guadagnino knows how to create good feng shui.

As cumbersome and overlong as the 28-year wait between the 1998 original film and its sequel, “Practical Magic 2” serves as a next-generation reminder that sometimes the best way to let a beloved experience live on is by leaving it behind in one’s memory. Led by Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman, director Griffin Dunne’s adaptation […]

What makes "Musk" such a lacerating and important watch, grounded in Alex Gibney’s supremely insightful but user-friendly mastery of the form, is that it takes this flamboyant but in many ways elusive figure, with his tech ambitions and cosmic dreams and malignant megalomania, and puts him all together, letting us see how one chapter of his life led to the next, and how the Musk dream wasn’t always so grandiose.
Elon Musk’s ex Ashley St. Clair spoke about her decision to reject a $40 million non-disclosure agreement after the influencer gave birth last year to Musk’s 13th child.
