This film has a story that it’s eager to share with anyone willing to listen, and while there isn’t a soul on Earth who hasn’t heard some rendition of “we found love in a hopeless place” a thousand times before, Michael Dorman’s charmingly tattered lead performance turns this into one of the most winsome cover versions we’ve heard in a long while. The hangdog energy of “Inside Llewyn Davis” looms heavy in this one from the very first shot, though Jesse (Dorman) wears it with puppy-like enthusiasm, and more closely resembles a scuzzier Garrett Hedlund than he does a cheerier Oscar Isaac....

Mangold has helmed his fair share of hero goodbyes, namely with “X-Men” standalone film “Logan,” but the director explained that “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” was always destined to be a balance of bittersweet sentimentality and the signature humor Steven Spielberg masterfully wove into the original films. “I am under no illusions that my job making an ‘Indiana Jones’ film was to suddenly beat the humor out of it and turn it into some kind of dirge,” Mangold told Entertainment Weekly....

The shocking news was announced on the show’s official social media accounts on Saturday, with both actors releasing statements explaining that the change was amicable. “My journey as Geralt of Rivia has been filled with both monsters and adventures, and alas, I will be laying down my medallion and my swords for Season 4,” Cavill said. “In my stead, the fantastic Mr Liam Hemsworth will be taking up the mantle of the White Wolf....

The film is written by Roberto Bentivegna and based on the Sarah Gay Gorden book “The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamour, and Greed.” It’s Scott’s second big-screen adult entertainment of the season after this month’s medieval epic “The Last Duel,” which is still in theaters. “House of Gucci” features a sprawling ensemble cast donning fabulous couture regalia and, in some cases, prosthetic disguises: Al Pacino as Aldo Gucci, an unrecognizable (and fat-suited) Jared Leto as Paolo Gucci, Jeremy Irons as Rodolfo Gucci, and Camille Cottin as Paola Franchi, plus Jack Huston, Salma Hayek, and Reeve Carney....

The HBO show, out August 21, already has a far more diverse cast than its predecessor “Thrones,” but social media backlash to casting Black actors has plagued the series ahead of its premiere. Lead star Steve Toussaint said he endured racist messages from so-called fans upon his casting announcement. “I didn’t realize [the casting] was a big deal until I was racially abused on social media,” Toussaint told The Hollywood Reporter....

This dire election season is overloaded with the usual parade of timely documentaries, from Alex Gibney sounding the alarm on the U.S. government’s pandemic response in “Totally Under Control” to the Stacey Abrams voter suppression callout “All In: The Fight for Democracy.” Such trenchant investigations into the state of America’s dysfunctional leadership might help enrage enough citizens to fume their way to the ballot box. But none of them cuts to the chase better than Borat....
