Moment speeding BMW driver takes officers on chase through Manchester after 'ramming' into police cars

The Cure has been found again. Robert Smith and his band of not-so-merry men are back in their inimitable mope mode with “Alone,” their first new song in 16 years, which was released on Thursday.And even after such a long wait, the single takes its sweet — or make that, sullen — time to unfold over nearly seven minutes.In fact, as the group’s absorbing atmospherics — shades of their 1989 classic LP “Disintegration” — set the melancholy mood, it takes three minutes and 22 seconds before Smith even sings a single word.But finally, he comes in with his tortured croon: “This is the end of every song that we sing/The fire burned out to ash and the stars grown dim with tears/Cold and afraid, the ghosts of all that we’ve been/We toast with bitter dregs, to our emptiness.”Inspired by Ernest Dowson’s poem “Dregs,” “Alone” is an ode “to all the love falling out of our lives,” tailor-made for your doldrums after your next breakup.I mean, did you think that Smith — even though he’s been married to the same woman, Mary Poole, since 1988 — would all of a sudden get happy at 65?It’s comforting to know that some things — and some alt-rock icons — don’t change.Accurately described in the song as a “broken-voiced lament,” “Alone” is the first single and opening track of “Songs of a Lost World” — the Cure’s first studio album since 2008’s “4:13 Dream” — which will be released on Nov.

EXCLUSIVE: In an interview as crackling with ideas as their new film Megalopolis, director Francis Coppola and Adam Driver discuss the power of films whose meaning changes in the minds of moviegoers in multiple viewings over time. The closest comp to Megalopolis is probably Coppola’s Apocalypse Now. Now a classic, that Heart of Darkness adaptation wrapped in the chaotic backdrop of Vietnam, was in its earliest showings considered as much a hot mess of radical ideas and imagery as Megalopolis. Coppola had Megalopolis close to a production start but called it off after 9/11. He continued to shoot second unit footage, including some shots of the smoldering World Trade Center wreckage. He reveals here that some of that imagery made it into Megalopolis for posterity sake, but Coppola said there was nothing that would bring pain to survivors of the worst attack on American soil. Watch them address that and much more — like “the death of journalism and the death of the Hollywood studio system,” as Coppola puts it — in an interview we did at TIFF. Lionsgate releases the film tomorrow.
