LILY COLLINS & EMILY
IN PARIS; Article: Why We Love Mind Candy:
Why are an awful lot of people bingeing an awful lot of terrible TV?
During
lockdown, we have spent a lot of time glued to our televisions, and the
streaming sites have been our enablers. They provide some vital comfort
TV — but we need more than that from them. (Interesting 2½-page article
analysing why audiences love shows in the mould of Emily in Paris; Lily
Collins also stars on a radiant Parisian cover page)

EMILY
MORTIMER (Relic); Interview: Making You Sob as
You Shudder: Emily Mortimer
interview: why she decided to make horror flick Relic.
The
Hammersmith-born actress Emily Mortimer makes for an exceedingly
likeable screen presence. Radiating goodness, she often pops up in
films that revel in a twee vision of England, such as Woody Allen’s
Match Point and as Jane Banks in Mary Poppins Returns. It is no
surprise, then, that she doesn’t like horror movies. (Candid 1-page interview with a dramatic
shot of Emily in the film Relic)
NICOLE
KIDMAN & HUGH GRANT (The Undoing); Review: Pick of the Week: The
Undoing: Monday, Sky Atlantic, 9pm.
After
the chill affluence of Big Little Lies, Nicole Kidman takes another
trip into the world of the dysfunctional rich with this psychological
thriller. Written by David E Kelley and based on the 2014 novel You
Should Have Known, by Jean Hanff Korelitz, it begins as Grace Fraser,
an expensive New York therapist, prepares her physician husband,
Jonathan (Hugh Grant), for their next social whirl: dinner with her
father (Donald Sutherland), a fundraising auction for their son’s
exclusive school. Yet there are unsettling cracks in this moneyed
perfection: a new “scholarship” mother at the school gates;
inexplicable nudity; unreturned phone calls and worrying absences, all
slowly leading towards a grisly tragedy... (Short, but interesting, ¾-page review of The Undoing
starring Nicole Kidman and Hugh Grant; displays a large image of Nicole
and Hugh)
