Murder on the Orient Express,” a miserable, poorly cast, sleepy take on the author’s most famous novel. Bad on its own terms, the film was made even worse by the fact that Sidney Lumet’s superb 1974 version, starring Lauren Bacall, Sean Connery, Ingrid Bergman and Albert Finney, is a screen classic.Running time: 127 minutes. Rated PG-13 (violence, some bloody images, and sexual material).

led the company to bankruptcy after it bled more than $100 million in a single quarter. Moviepass first hinted at its plans for a relaunch in November, when Spikes bought the company in New York bankruptcy court for a meager $14,000. He said in court filings that company was testing a “new proposed business model with a sample group of 1,000 customers” in late 2021. The filings did not provide details of the new business model but did show that Spikes wanted to launch a full-fledged MoviePass comeback in the fall or winter of 2022. Spikes originally co-founded in 2011 but the service only gained steam in 2017 after it was purchased by Helios and Matheson Analytics, a data analytics firm.

opposing an affordable housing project in Yellow Springs, Ohio.Chappelle, 48, addressed the town council and threatened to pull his money from the community if they approved plans to develop 53 acres of residential housing.The town voted on the plan Wednesday after the council meeting, where the public was invited to comment on the proposal. Now, Chappelle is clearing things up. His reps didn’t respond to The Post’s request for comment, but in a statement to Fox News, his spokeswoman Carla Sims said the plan itself needed improvements.“Dave Chappelle didn’t kill affordable housing,” Sims said. “Concerned residents and a responding Village Council ‘killed’ a half-baked plan which never actually offered affordable housing.”In the viral clip, Chappelle, who lives in the town, can be heard calling local politicians “clowns.” He told the council, in no uncertain terms, that he would pull his own business ventures —  a planned restaurant and comedy club called the Firehouse Eatery — out of Yellow Springs.“I don’t know why the council would be afraid of litigation from a $24 million-a-year company while it’s out a $65 million-a-year company,” Chappelle told the Yellow Springs Village Council.

Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorYoung veterans are nothing new in the music biz, but it still feels odd that Jade Bird is just 23: Her label, Glassnote, began showcasing her five years ago and she soon followed with an EP and, in 2019, a solid debut album. But her new release, “Different Kinds of Light,” is the proverbial big step forward, the one that conjures words like “maturity” and finds her becoming a seasoned performer, songwriter and especially singer.It’s almost like hearing a different artist, particularly on the opening “Open Up the Heavens” and the tracks that immediately follow — her smooth yet powerful delivery hasn’t necessarily changed, but there’s a subtlety and emotional depth that wasn’t there before.

Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorMost fans have a favorite Beatle, but there’s not much debate about which Beatles solo album is the best: George Harrison’s epic “All Things Must Pass.”Released in November 1970, just seven months after the group’s breakup was belatedly confirmed, it has become synonymous with the concept of suppressed brilliance. Since he first landed a composition on a Beatles album with “Don’t Bother Me” in 1963, Harrison had battled, largely unsuccessfully, to place his songs on the group’s records, eventually securing one per LP and finally one per vinyl side.

Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorIn the wee hours of Thursday, Apple Music launched a livestream via an in-app takeover before Kanye West’s second livestream of his delayed new album, “Donda,” again at Mercedes Stadium in Atlanta.Two weeks ago, West — who has held similar listening events for his last two official albums — held a similar livestreamed session in the stadium ahead of the album’s originally planned release date of July 23.
