Four Takeaways From Bob Woodward’s New Book on Trump

Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic“You are not here for a cure,” the founder of a 26-day sexual therapy retreat tells the small group of women enrolled in her program at the outset of “That Kind of Summer.” Laying out the ground rules for the sensitive self-awareness exercise that follows — a loosely structured hiatus from unhealthy temptations, designed for those whose out-of-control impulses have made their lives unmanageable — she reassures, “You are not forbidden any sexual thoughts or behavior here. You are not sick.”Shot on grainy Super 16 with the kind of unsteady handheld aesthetic that suggests the cameraperson really ought to get their inner ear checked, Denis Côté’s radically nonjudgmental “let’s talk about sex” drama looks and feels like a documentary — at least, it could pass as one until a giant CG tarantula crawls up the wall while one of the women is masturbating late in the game.

Ethan Shanfeld Frank Pesce, a character actor who appeared in both “Beverly Hills Cop” movies, “Top Gun,” “Midnight Run” and “Miami Vice,” died on Feb. 6 due to dementia complications. He was 75.Born in 1946 in New York City, Pesce’s circle of friends included Sylvester Stallone, Tony Danza and Robert Forster, among others.

Daniel D'Addario Chief TV CriticThe new documentary series “Lincoln’s Dilemma” begins and ends outside of Abraham Lincoln’s era — opening with footage of the siege on the Capitol on January 6, 2021, and concluding only weeks later, with the journalist Jelani Cobb’s observation that the military “occupied” Washington to keep Joe Biden safe at his inauguration. But the point this series makes is that, indeed, we’re hardly outside Lincoln’s moment at all — that the tenuousness and the peril of his era persist, as does the fundamentally unresolved question of race in this country.Directed by Jacqueline Olive and Barak Goodman and executive produced by, among others, former HBO chief Richard Plepler, “Lincoln’s Dilemma” uses various techniques to illustrate the life and legacy of the 16th president, and the problems he faced while in office.

Trey Songz has been accused of sexual assault by an anonymous woman following an alleged incident she claims took place in 2016.According to documents obtained by TMZ, the R&B singer (real name Tremaine Aldon Neverson) has been named in a $20million lawsuit filed by a woman who has claimed he anally raped her.The woman alleges Songz invited her to a house party in Los Angeles, where he invited her upstairs for what she believed would be consensual sex. She says the two of them had engaged in a consensual sexual relationship prior to the alleged incident.She then claims Songz repeatedly asked her if he could “get that ass” on the way upstairs, to which she said she repeatedly told him “no” and to stop asking.The woman claims the singer’s demeanour changed upon entering the bedroom and alleges he threw her to the ground, ripped her pants off, pinned her down face first and forced his penis into her anus without her consent.She claims she screamed in pain and begged Songz to stop, and tried fighting him off but says she was overpowered.In the suit, the woman claims someone entered the room during the alleged incident, which she hoped would put an end to the “brutal rape”, but she claims the person quickly left the room and Songz kept raping her.The accuser said she was only able to flee the scene after Songz was finished and her Uber driver “noticed she was in distress”.

Eurovision Song Contest, the competition has announced.On Saturday (February 12) Pash was announced as the winner of Vidbir, the nationally televised selection show that Ukraine uses to find its Eurovision entry, with her song ‘Тіні забутих предків’ (‘Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors’).Now, however, Ukraine’s national broadcaster UA:PBC has reversed its decision for Pash to be the country’s representative following an investigation into a 2015 trip she made to Crimea, an area Russia seized control of in 2014.In Ukraine there are strict rules in place on how people should travel to the region. Ukrainians and foreigners are only allowed to travel there through official land checkpoints.
