Director Pablo Larrain’s impressionistic portrait of JFK’s widow mixes familiar images and intrusive moments that don’t quite add up Director Pablo Larraín (“No”) seeks to peel back the well-known portrait of grace and dignity to show the fragility, hauteur, cynicism and grief of the title character in “Jackie.” Larraín’s dreamy narrative is set in the wake of the shocking assassination of John F.

Comedy Central aired just 14 minutes of the frosty Wednesday debate Trevor Noah and Tomi Lahren spent more time together last night than many married couples — perhaps that explains all the bickering. The “Daily Show” host and his conservative guest sat and (mostly) civilly discussed issues like the Black Lives Matter movement and Colin Kaepernick’s national anthem protest for more than 26 minutes last night. Comedy Central could only air 14 of those minutes on the half-hour program. [...] the... Читать дальше...

There's Jorge Mas Canosa, a Bay of Pigs veteran and founder of the Cuban American National Foundation, resting in his tomb under Cuban and American flags. [...] he's important to students of Cuban history as one of a small group of Cuban-Americans who tried to overthrow Castro six months before the Bay of Pigs invasion. Читать дальше...

Central Florida head coach Scott Frost, whose school is hosting the 49ers before they visit Chicago on Sunday, said he’s not in line to replace Mark Helfrich, who was fired Tuesday. Frost said he hadn’t been contacted by the school and wasn’t interested in leaving UCF after one season.

Frost was a standout quarterback at Nebraska who played five seasons in the NFL as a defensive back. Читать дальше...

The most affecting thing about “Ovation,” Henry Jaglom’s latest feature, is that it conveys a genuine love of theater and its practitioners. Less impressive are features the movie shares with other works by this veteran indie director — it’s long-winded and unpolished. The story is a grab bag of tidbits from backstage life: romantic entanglements among the cast, shaky finances, art versus commerce, a possible big break for the leading lady, all topped off with — why not? — a possible murder, a...
