"content": "\u003cp>Beyoncé won four Grammy Awards to become the most celebrated performer in the awards show’s history during an unpredictable ceremony that mixed the arrival of major new artists with repeat victories by Grammy favorites and surprisingly intimate performances with more familiar staged bombast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two biggest awards of the night went to Billie Eilish’s “Everything I Wanted,” which won record of the year and Taylor Swift’s quarantine-produced \u003cem>folklore,\u003c/em> which picked up the album of the year prize. After coming up empty in her first five nominations Sunday, Swift had to wait for most of the ceremony before taking home her third career Grammy in that category, becoming just the fourth artist to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Upon receiving the Recording Academy’s most prestigious award, Eilish, who swept the major categories in last year’s awards, immediately deflected credit and said Houston rapper Megan Thee Stallion should have won the award for her song “Savage.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is really embarrassing to me,” Eilish said. “Megan … girl, you deserve this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Megan Thee Stallion, one of the music industry’s most notable new arrivals in 2020, still took home three awards: best new artist, best rap song and best rap performance. Her “Savage” remix featuring Beyoncé helped the latter pass Alison Krauss for most Grammys ever by a female artist and tie super-producer Quincy Jones at 28 career trophies. Only classical conductor Georg Solti (31) has won more Grammy hardware.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wanted to uplift, encourage and celebrate all the beautiful Black queens and kings that continue to inspire me and inspire the whole world,” Beyoncé said after accepting the Grammy for best R&B performance for her Juneteenth surprise single “Black Parade.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QG00h0OASmw\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shockwaves of Summer 2020, when a nation defied lockdown to protest the killings of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor at the hands of police, were felt on the outdoor stage at Los Angeles’ Staples Center. H.E.R.’s “\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/we-insist-a-timeline-of-protest-music-in-2020/2020/09/02/903233585/h-e-r-questions-indifference-to-black-agony-on-i-can-t-breathe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">I Can’t Breathe\u003c/a>,” which was also released on Juneteenth, took home song of the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know that fight we had in Summer 2020?” H.E.R. said before she left the stage. “Keep that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chart-topping rapper Lil Baby was even more explicit, bringing his nominated anthem “The Bigger Picture” to life in a pre-produced segment that portrayed two police officers killing a Black man after a traffic stop. The video featured Killer Mike delivering a verse from his Run The Jewels project and activist Tamika Mallory, who delivered a passionate plea directly to the White House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“President Biden, we demand justice, equity, policy and everything else that freedom encompasses,” Mallory said. “And to accomplish this, we don’t need allies. We need accomplices. It’s bigger than black and white. This is not a trend, this is our plight.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ongoing pandemic forced CBS and the Recording Academy to rethink the performances that add up to “Music’s Biggest Night.” Instead of shuffling artists on and off a huge stage in front of a packed arena, host Trevor Noah ushered the cameras into a spacious room featuring a handful of nominees who performed in round robin fashion. Mostly gone were the Broadway sets and “Grammy moments” of retired producer Ken Erhlich, who helmed the broadcast from 1980 until last year. Instead, first-time executive producer Ben Winston often opted for low-key memories by cutting away from performers to capture giddy reactions from their fellow nominees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harry Styles, donning a scarf and jacket, kicked off the evening’s performances with “Watermelon Sugar,” which later was named best pop solo performance. Rising pop star Dua Lipa, who was favored by some to sweep the big three awards coming into the night, was shut out of the major awards, but did take home best pop vocal album.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sunday night marked the first time the Grammys included the Latin pop album award in its primetime telecast. That prize went to \u003cem>YHLQMDLG \u003c/em>by streaming giant Bad Bunny, who gave one of the night’s most electrifying performances with his “DÁKITI” co-star Jhay Cortez.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vv-Y1Ejhk4o\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The night’s most affecting live performance was, arguably, Mickey Guyton’s “Black Like Me,” which lost out to Vince Gill’s “When My Amy Prays” for best country solo performance earlier in the day. The song was released in the wake of George Floyd’s killing last summer and documents the marginalization that Black people can feel in everyday America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guyton’s song kicked off a segment of live performances from women nominated in country music categories, which might have featured more female voices than a week’s worth of country radio. Miranda Lambert, who earlier won the best country album award for \u003cem>Wildcard\u003c/em>, performed her nominated song “Bluebird,” while Maren Morris sang “The Bones” with help from John Mayer on guitar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier in the day, Fiona Apple, whose critically-acclaimed album \u003cem>Fetch the Bolt Cutters\u003c/em> received no nominations in the major categories, did win two categories that gave her a chance, capturing both best alternative music album and best rock performance for “Shameika.” The latter came up short in the best rock song category, which was won by Brittany Howard for “Stay High.” That effervescent single from Howard’s album \u003cem>Jaime\u003c/em> was the \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/12/11/778227298/heavy-rotation-public-radios-most-popular-songs-of-2019\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">most-played song on NPR stations in 2019\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two iconic departed musicians received awards from the Academy after unexpected deaths. Chick Corea, who died suddenly in February from cancer, was named a winner for best jazz instrumental album (\u003cem>Trilogy 2\u003c/em> with Christian McBride & Brian Blade) and best improvised jazz solo (for “All Blues” from the same album). Beloved songwriter John Prine, who died last April after contracting COVID-19, was awarded two Grammys for the posthumously released “I Remember Everything,” which was named best American roots performance and best American roots song.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTJDZiW_paM\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brandi Carlile performed the song in tribute to Prine during the section of the telecast that paid tribute to dozens of musicians and music professionals who died since last year’s show. Earlier in the day, Carlile, Natalie Hemby and Lori McKenna won the best country song for The Highwomen’s “Crowded Table.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nas won his first career Grammy, picking up the best rap album prize for his 13th studio album, \u003cem>King’s Disease\u003c/em>. Nas edged critical favorite Freddie Gibbs and The Alchemist’s \u003cem>Alfredo\u003c/em>, but the category received more notoriety for what wasn’t nominated, namely Lil Uzi Vert’s \u003cem>Eternal Atake\u003c/em> and Lil Baby’s \u003cem>My Turn\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Montreal producer Kaytranada took home both of the dance/electronic category’s awards, winning best dance recording for “10%,” which featured Kali Uchis, and best dance/electronic album for \u003cem>Bubba\u003c/em>. The recognition was justice served for an album released in mid-December 2019, after most of the year’s “best of” lists had already been published. Kaytranada’s victory for \u003cem>Bubba\u003c/em> marked the first time a Black musician took home the dance/electronic album Grammy in the category’s 17-year history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2021 NPR.

It’s a film called, On The Divide. It’s following three people who are all Latinx, who are connected to the last abortion clinic on the U.S./Mexico border in McAllen,Texas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Pen: Six years in the making, that’s a marathon. How do you stay focused on one topic for so long?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maya: What really keeps me focused is the idea that access is really, really dire. In a community like McAllen… for undocumented women trying to get access, it’s really hard because they have to travel through border checkpoints in order to get to the nearest clinic That’s 250 miles away from them. So if this clinic were to close, there would be virtually no access for for women or patients who are undocumented and are seeking abortion care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Pen: You mentioned immigration and how that plays a role in covering abortion. But also you’ve done work specifically about immigration. Can you talk to me a little bit about the film, Ale Libre?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maya: I actually came across Ale’s story when I came across a petition asking for her release from the ICE Detention Center. I kind of just started doing research on her and I came across all of her work as an organizer. She’s a reproductive rights organizer as well as an immigrants rights organizer. And I also found that she had a web series about brujeria and witchcraft and how that intersects with organizing. And I was just like, this person is really cool. And I just wanted to know more about her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maya: So I ended up doing a radio feature about her for a Latino USA. And it was following her whole life story, but also this petition to get her released. And fortunately, she was released in March 2018 from Eloy Detention Center. And then after her release, she actually hit me up and was like, ‘hey, look, I’m actually really thinking about getting my story out there in a documentary, do you know anyone who could potentially make one?’ And I was like, ‘I am a filmmaker and I would really love to share your story in that way.’ The film is really following her after her release and her fight for political asylum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Pen: On that note, your approach to your work. Do you see it as an art? Do you see it as activism or do you see it as a documentation of life?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maya: I definitely see an intersection of all 3 of those things in the work that I do. I also do feel that there is an art behind pushing those stories forward. I have been around like-minded people my whole life, and I don’t necessarily think that that pushes causes forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maya: So for me, in general, I like to approach filmmaking and storytelling in a way that turns issues on its head or makes you think twice about someone that I might be filming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maya: For Ale, specifically, what’s really interesting is that she is a reproductive rights organizer and an immigrant rights organizer but when she was 25, she got a DUI… We’ve all made mistakes, but has it landed us two years in jail or two years in prison or two years in a detention center, like for many of us no?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Pen: … With your father and even the other stories that you’ve grown to know, how do you walk that fine line of you’re the storyteller, so you’re the power holder, if you will. And at the same time, you try to empower this person, let them tell their story. How do you balance those two things of ‘I know what story needs to be told’ versus ‘I need to let them tell their story’?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maya: I think it’s really hard as filmmakers to think that we can be objective, completely. The balance is when I do approach the subjects, I’m initially asking them what are stories you feel like aren’t being shared? Or how do you feel like you’re being misrepresented? Because I cannot speak for you. I can get a camera and I can interview you and ask you certain questions but ultimately, your voice is the one that needs to come through and shine through.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maya: I think an example is when I was first approaching the abortion clinic that I’m following in my feature, I asked the communications director ‘I feel like a lot of news media comes in here and they want to tell a certain story but what is the story you feel is missing?’ And she was like, ‘oh, no one’s ever asked me that before.’\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maya: I don’t ever want to come into a space — a community that maybe I identify with, but I’m not a part of — and think that I’m an expert.\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Rightnowish is an arts and culture podcast produced at KQED.

"headTitle": "With All the Twists and Turns ‘Behind Her Eyes,’ You’ll Want to Watch it Twice | KQED",
"content": "\u003cp>If you’ve read Sarah Pinborough’s 2017 novel \u003cem>Behind Her Eyes\u003c/em>, you already know what to expect from Netflix’s new miniseries adaptation. But if you don’t know what to expect, you ought to do everything you can to keep it that way, and come to this series as uninformed as possible. Just promise yourself, in advance, that you’ll stay with it, and allow its secrets to slowly reveal themselves. Get to the end—the very end—and I all but guarantee you’ll be ready to start watching the whole thing all over again. Immediately.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one sense, the story is a basic romantic drama involving a divorced single mom and a couple that’s been married for 10 years. But nothing in \u003cem>Behind Her Eyes\u003c/em> is that basic, not even the geometry of its romantic triangle. And what begins almost as a romantic comedy finds itself flirting with different genres as it progresses—a bit revenge thriller here, and something else entirely a little later. Think of movies that stunned you by pulling the rug out from under you, movies with key central shocks like \u003cem>The Sixth Sense, The Usual Suspects, The Crying Game \u003c/em>and \u003cem>Se7en\u003c/em>. \u003cem>Behind Her Eyes\u003c/em> is right up there—and also connects, at one point literally, with \u003cem>Alice in Wonderland.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And yet it starts so casually. Simona Brown plays Louise, a single mom out for a rare night at the pub. She literally bumps into a handsome stranger—David, played by Tom Bateman—and the two of them drink, joke and end the night with a kiss, before he quickly and apologetically breaks it off and leaves.

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>If you’ve read Sarah Pinborough’s 2017 novel \u003cem>Behind Her Eyes\u003c/em>, you already know what to expect from Netflix’s new miniseries adaptation. But if you don’t know what to expect, you ought to do everything you can to keep it that way, and come to this series as uninformed as possible. Just promise yourself, in advance, that you’ll stay with it, and allow its secrets to slowly reveal themselves. Get to the end—the very end—and I all but guarantee you’ll be ready to start watching the whole thing all over again. Immediately.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one sense, the story is a basic romantic drama involving a divorced single mom and a couple that’s been married for 10 years. But nothing in \u003cem>Behind Her Eyes\u003c/em> is that basic, not even the geometry of its romantic triangle. And what begins almost as a romantic comedy finds itself flirting with different genres as it progresses—a bit revenge thriller here, and something else entirely a little later. Think of movies that stunned you by pulling the rug out from under you, movies with key central shocks like \u003cem>The Sixth Sense, The Usual Suspects, The Crying Game \u003c/em>and \u003cem>Se7en\u003c/em>. \u003cem>Behind Her Eyes\u003c/em> is right up there—and also connects, at one point literally, with \u003cem>Alice in Wonderland.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And yet it starts so casually. Simona Brown plays Louise, a single mom out for a rare night at the pub. She literally bumps into a handsome stranger—David, played by Tom Bateman—and the two of them drink, joke and end the night with a kiss, before he quickly and apologetically breaks it off and leaves. A few days later, David reports for his new job as a psychiatrist—and when he enters his office, there stands Louise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two of them remain intrigued by each other, but early on, there’s another complication: In another seemingly accidental meeting, Louise meets David’s wife, Adele. She’s played by Eve Hewson, who happens to be the daughter of U2 lead singer \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/artists/15289501/bono\">Bono\u003c/a>.

"content": "\u003cp>In any given year, awards-season viewers are doing some combination of reveling in the booze-filled loosie-goosey nature of the Golden Globes while bemoaning the ostensible arbitrariness of many of its nominees and winners. Do \u003cem>you \u003c/em>recall the movie \u003cem>Salmon Fishing in the Yemen\u003c/em>? (Three nods in 2012, including best picture.)

How?!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mood going into this year’s Globes ceremony was different, however, and not just because the producers had Covid-related logistics to work out for a mostly virtual event. Just a few days earlier, the \u003cem>Los Angeles Times \u003c/em>published \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/business/story/2021-02-21/hfpa-golden-globes-2021-who-are-the-members\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">two\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/business/story/2021-02-21/hfpa-golden-globes-2021\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">investigations\u003c/a> looking into the inner workings of the mysterious Hollywood Foreign Press Association, an organization of 87 “journalists” who vote on the awards. Those exposés unveiled a number of details which suggest the Globes are more frivolous (and corrupt) than even the most cynical among us may have considered. Among the reveals: a number of HFPA members were fabulously flown in to France and wined and dined for a set visit to \u003cem>Emily in Paris\u003c/em>, the wildly popular but critically reviled show which received three head-scratching nominations. Also, there are currently zero Black members in the HFPA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Sunday night, the ceremony addressed the diversity PR nightmare head-on, first via the opening banter between returning co-hosts Amy Poehler and Tina Fey, who were broadcast from the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills and the Rainbow Room in New York City, respectively. Sprinkled in between jokes about the differences between movies and television and an acknowledgement of the pandemic first responders in the audience, were cracks about the HFPA’s membership (“around 90 international—no Black—journalists,” a couple of whom “might be ghosts”) and a more serious admission that worthy Black performances and creators were overlooked this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And a bit later in the evening, three members of the HFPA emerged from obscurity to pledge that the organization felt bad about all the negative publicity and would commit to doing better about inclusion going forward. (There was no mention of whether or not all-expenses paid trips to fancy cities on a Hollywood studio’s dime was also being reconsidered.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once the awards-giving kicked off, it was often a bumpy ride. While presenters appeared in person in either New York or L.A., nominees attended remotely from their respective homes. The potential for technical chaos was realized almost immediately, when Daniel Kaluuya, who won the first award of the night for his role as Fred Hampton in \u003cem>Judas and the Black Messiah\u003c/em>, couldn’t be heard while giving his acceptance speech. After a few moments, presenter Laura Dern noted the difficulties and attempted to quickly wrap up and move to the next segment; luckily, Kaluuya was able to jump back in, this time with sound in check, and deliver typically charming remarks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FgS6q-xSoY\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were many more awkward sound-related issues, merely irritating and occasionally chaotic—was that acceptance speech where Catherine O’Hara, who took home an award for \u003cem>Schitt’s Creek\u003c/em>, kept being interrupted by her husband Bo Welch’s phone, a planned bit or a kerfluffle-turned-on-the-fly bit? I’m not sure, but whatever it was, it was a rare highlight in an otherwise dull night. The producers padded the run time with skits which, even in normal times, would feel forced—save for a perfectly weird skit involving Maya Rudolph and Kenan Thompson donning faux French accents, anything not directly related to the presentation of awards was superfluous.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The big winners of the night were a mixed bag of the surprising and predictable. \u003cem>Nomadland \u003c/em>won best motion picture, drama, and its director Chloe Zhao became the first Asian woman to win the best director award—and first woman since Barbra Streisand won for \u003cem>Yentl \u003c/em>nearly 40 years ago. Chadwick Boseman received a posthumous honor for \u003cem>Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom \u003c/em>in the best actor, drama category; his widow, Taylor Simone Ledward gave a stirring, heartbreaking speech on his behalf. Andra Day triumphed for her first feature starring role in \u003cem>The United States vs. Billie Holiday \u003c/em>in a stacked category that included Viola Davis and Frances McDormand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While \u003cem>Emily In Paris \u003c/em>went home empty-handed—Netflix must be wondering, was that all-expenses paid set visit for all those HFPA members worth it after all?—crowd-pleaser \u003cem>The Queen’s Gambit\u003c/em> beat out Steve McQueen’s transformative\u003cem> Small Axe \u003c/em>for best limited series, drama. (Though John Boyega earned his first Globe win for his role in \u003cem>Red, White and Blue\u003c/em>, one of the films in \u003cem>Small Axe.\u003c/em>)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VG58uqZPWsU\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The show was at its best when the veterans were involved. The 98-year-old Norman Lear was given the Carol Burnett Award for “outstanding contributions to television,” and, perhaps because it was coordinated ahead of time, the TV titan had by far the sharpest audio and visual set-up of all the remote celebrities. He kept his remarks short and sweet, proving yet again that he is a national treasure. Ditto Jane Fonda, who appeared in-person at the Rainbow Room to accept the other honorary award of the evening, the Cecil B. DeMille award. In one of the most riveting moments of the night, she gave a shout out to the recent works that inspired her, including \u003cem>Nomadland, Judas and the Black Messiah\u003c/em>, \u003cem>Minari\u003c/em> (which won after being controversially nominated in the Best Foreign Language category) and \u003cem>I May Destroy You\u003c/em> (which was notably shut out from any nominations despite its critical acclaim).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps the one saving grace of this snooze fest was that it ended under three and a half hours. But considering how much time the producers had to execute a smooth and relatively painless event—and that they could have looked to last fall’s comparatively successful \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/09/21/915132850/the-emmys-pull-off-a-good-show-as-schitt-s-creek-and-watchmen-shine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">virtual Emmy Awards\u003c/a> for guidance—this year’s Golden Globes only further solidified the event’s irrelevance, for everyone to witness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2021 NPR.

Also, there are currently zero Black members in the HFPA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Sunday night, the ceremony addressed the diversity PR nightmare head-on, first via the opening banter between returning co-hosts Amy Poehler and Tina Fey, who were broadcast from the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills and the Rainbow Room in New York City, respectively. Sprinkled in between jokes about the differences between movies and television and an acknowledgement of the pandemic first responders in the audience, were cracks about the HFPA’s membership (“around 90 international—no Black—journalists,” a couple of whom “might be ghosts”) and a more serious admission that worthy Black performances and creators were overlooked this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And a bit later in the evening, three members of the HFPA emerged from obscurity to pledge that the organization felt bad about all the negative publicity and would commit to doing better about inclusion going forward. (There was no mention of whether or not all-expenses paid trips to fancy cities on a Hollywood studio’s dime was also being reconsidered.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once the awards-giving kicked off, it was often a bumpy ride. While presenters appeared in person in either New York or L.A., nominees attended remotely from their respective homes. The potential for technical chaos was realized almost immediately, when Daniel Kaluuya, who won the first award of the night for his role as Fred Hampton in \u003cem>Judas and the Black Messiah\u003c/em>, couldn’t be heard while giving his acceptance speech. After a few moments, presenter Laura Dern noted the difficulties and attempted to quickly wrap up and move to the next segment; luckily, Kaluuya was able to jump back in, this time with sound in check, and deliver typically charming remarks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I’m not sure, but whatever it was, it was a rare highlight in an otherwise dull night. The producers padded the run time with skits which, even in normal times, would feel forced—save for a perfectly weird skit involving Maya Rudolph and Kenan Thompson donning faux French accents, anything not directly related to the presentation of awards was superfluous.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The big winners of the night were a mixed bag of the surprising and predictable. \u003cem>Nomadland \u003c/em>won best motion picture, drama, and its director Chloe Zhao became the first Asian woman to win the best director award—and first woman since Barbra Streisand won for \u003cem>Yentl \u003c/em>nearly 40 years ago. Chadwick Boseman received a posthumous honor for \u003cem>Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom \u003c/em>in the best actor, drama category; his widow, Taylor Simone Ledward gave a stirring, heartbreaking speech on his behalf. Andra Day triumphed for her first feature starring role in \u003cem>The United States vs. Billie Holiday \u003c/em>in a stacked category that included Viola Davis and Frances McDormand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While \u003cem>Emily In Paris \u003c/em>went home empty-handed—Netflix must be wondering, was that all-expenses paid set visit for all those HFPA members worth it after all?—crowd-pleaser \u003cem>The Queen’s Gambit\u003c/em> beat out Steve McQueen’s transformative\u003cem> Small Axe \u003c/em>for best limited series, drama. (Though John Boyega earned his first Globe win for his role in \u003cem>Red, White and Blue\u003c/em>, one of the films in \u003cem>Small Axe.\u003c/em>)\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/VG58uqZPWsU'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/VG58uqZPWsU'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>The show was at its best when the veterans were involved. The 98-year-old Norman Lear was given the Carol Burnett Award for “outstanding contributions to television,” and, perhaps because it was coordinated ahead of time, the TV titan had by far the sharpest audio and visual set-up of all the remote celebrities. He kept his remarks short and sweet, proving yet again that he is a national treasure. Ditto Jane Fonda, who appeared in-person at the Rainbow Room to accept the other honorary award of the evening, the Cecil B. DeMille award. In one of the most riveting moments of the night, she gave a shout out to the recent works that inspired her, including \u003cem>Nomadland, Judas and the Black Messiah\u003c/em>, \u003cem>Minari\u003c/em> (which won after being controversially nominated in the Best Foreign Language category) and \u003cem>I May Destroy You\u003c/em> (which was notably shut out from any nominations despite its critical acclaim).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"headTitle": "‘Allen v. Farrow’ is the Most Damning Indictment of Woody Allen Yet | KQED",
"content": "\u003cp>There are many astonishing things about HBO’s new four-part documentary series, \u003ca href=\"https://www.hbo.com/documentaries/allen-v-farrow\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cem>Allen v. Farrow\u003c/em>\u003c/a>. The first is just how many people in it—family, friends, neighbors, babysitters, ex-lovers—freely testify to Woody Allen’s unhealthy interest in young girls, including his own adopted daughter, Dylan. The second is how those revelations hit you as a bystander. As the four episodes unfurl, you feel shock, disbelief, disgust, and a deep, unerring sense that this will be—this \u003cem>has\u003c/em> to be—the end of Woody Allen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The truth of the matter is that much of the information laid out in \u003cem>Allen v. Farrow\u003c/em> has been readily available for nearly 30 years. Originally published in a \u003cem>Vanity Fai\u003c/em>r article titled “\u003ca href=\"https://archive.vanityfair.com/article/share/cc1a6aed-1d33-45fd-99c6-731825a7f4d4?gclid=CjwKCAiAmrOBBhA0EiwArn3mfMFgBE64LDvo9n859q4Rk3kdkXTQyi6-JprDGx3xHUcofjL3iqdh3xoC-y4QAvD_BwE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mia’s Story\u003c/a>” back in November 1992, the many (\u003cem>many\u003c/em>) testimonies against Allen have been out there, hiding in plain sight, ever since. That they have gone so widely unheeded, ignored and swept under the rug all this time has been hurting the Farrow family—especially \u003ca href=\"https://kristof.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/02/01/an-open-letter-from-dylan-farrow/?_r=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dylan\u003c/a>—ever since. And its bearing witness to that pain ultimately gives \u003cem>Allen v. Farrow\u003c/em> its power.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKTOj7HnLbo\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The series does an excellent job at deftly cutting through the defenses Allen has relied on, and hidden behind, since 1992. His narrative has long been that Farrow made up child sex-abuse allegations to get revenge on Allen after he left her for Soon-Yi Previn—one of her other adopted children. Allen’s defenders have argued repeatedly that 7-year-old Dylan had been coached by Farrow to tell lies about him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That version of events is undercut in \u003cem>Allen v. Farrow\u003c/em> by corroborated statements that describe in detail Woody Allen’s smothering and obsessive behavior toward Dylan from the time she was a toddler.

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>There are many astonishing things about HBO’s new four-part documentary series, \u003ca href=\"https://www.hbo.com/documentaries/allen-v-farrow\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cem>Allen v. Farrow\u003c/em>\u003c/a>. The first is just how many people in it—family, friends, neighbors, babysitters, ex-lovers—freely testify to Woody Allen’s unhealthy interest in young girls, including his own adopted daughter, Dylan. The second is how those revelations hit you as a bystander. As the four episodes unfurl, you feel shock, disbelief, disgust, and a deep, unerring sense that this will be—this \u003cem>has\u003c/em> to be—the end of Woody Allen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The truth of the matter is that much of the information laid out in \u003cem>Allen v. Farrow\u003c/em> has been readily available for nearly 30 years. Originally published in a \u003cem>Vanity Fai\u003c/em>r article titled “\u003ca href=\"https://archive.vanityfair.com/article/share/cc1a6aed-1d33-45fd-99c6-731825a7f4d4?gclid=CjwKCAiAmrOBBhA0EiwArn3mfMFgBE64LDvo9n859q4Rk3kdkXTQyi6-JprDGx3xHUcofjL3iqdh3xoC-y4QAvD_BwE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mia’s Story\u003c/a>” back in November 1992, the many (\u003cem>many\u003c/em>) testimonies against Allen have been out there, hiding in plain sight, ever since. That they have gone so widely unheeded, ignored and swept under the rug all this time has been hurting the Farrow family—especially \u003ca href=\"https://kristof.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/02/01/an-open-letter-from-dylan-farrow/?_r=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dylan\u003c/a>—ever since. And its bearing witness to that pain ultimately gives \u003cem>Allen v. Farrow\u003c/em> its power.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/cKTOj7HnLbo'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/cKTOj7HnLbo'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>The series does an excellent job at deftly cutting through the defenses Allen has relied on, and hidden behind, since 1992. His narrative has long been that Farrow made up child sex-abuse allegations to get revenge on Allen after he left her for Soon-Yi Previn—one of her other adopted children. Allen’s defenders have argued repeatedly that 7-year-old Dylan had been coached by Farrow to tell lies about him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That version of events is undercut in \u003cem>Allen v. Farrow\u003c/em> by corroborated statements that describe in detail Woody Allen’s smothering and obsessive behavior toward Dylan from the time she was a toddler. Mia Farrow talks of his “incredible amount of focus on her” from the time she was born. As Dylan got older, multiple witnesses report, Allen’s behavior towards her became more and more inappropriate. One even says she saw him molest Dylan at an outing to the beach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"headTitle": "‘It’s a Sin’ Series, Set During AIDS Epidemic, Resonates During COVID-19 | KQED",
"content": "\u003cp>Pop culture has a genius for transforming painful history into enjoyable entertainment. It can turn Nazi POW camps into the sitcom \u003cem>Hogan’s Heroes\u003c/em>. It can spin the murder of Israeli athletes into the thriller \u003cem>Munich\u003c/em>. It can use the 1921 race massacre in Tulsa to kickstart the superhero saga \u003cem>Watchmen\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The emergence of AIDS provides the impetus for \u003cem>It’s a Sin\u003c/em>, a hit British series about five young people who share a London apartment over the years from 1981 to ’91. The show is the semi-autobiographical brainchild of Russell T. Davies, a writer best known for creating \u003cem>Queer as Folk\u003c/em> and resurrecting \u003cem>Doctor Who\u003c/em>. With his gimlet eye for the pop jugular, Davies turns the story of that deadly pandemic into a soapy drama that, like many dance songs from that era, is equal parts bounciness and woe. [aside postid='arts_13858699']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The series begins with the coming together of five gay—or gay friendly—characters. There’s cocky, self-involved Ritchie (played by pop star Olly Alexander) who wants to be an actor. There’s campy Roscoe, who’s been booted from his home by his Nigerian Christian family and hooks up with a Conservative MP (Stephen Fry). There’s sturdy Ash Mukherjee, an attractive teacher, and the touchingly naive Colin, a young Welshman who works for a Savile Row tailor. Holding the house all together is Jill (Lydia West), another aspiring actor based on Davies’ real-life best friend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By day, the five try to make their careers. By night, they party—laughing and dancing and shagging like sex is going out of style. Ritchie, the group’s showman, gives blithe speeches mocking rumors of a disease that attacks gay people. “How do I know it’s not true?” he asks. “Because I’m not stupid.” But he \u003cem>is\u003c/em> wrong. The first real inkling comes from Colin’s gay mentor at the tailor shop, played by \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2014/10/13/354997298/whats-it-like-to-be-neil-patrick-harris-he-gives-you-options\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Neil Patrick Harris\u003c/a>, when his longtime boyfriend is put in the hospital.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnR5DxP2e2g\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davies’ shows have always known how to grab you, but even his admirers would never fault him for subtlety. Not overly concerned with getting things absolutely right, he largely ignores the lives of middle-aged gays and lesbians; he makes the gay clubs sleeker and less grungy than they actually were. If you want a deep and nuanced portrait of HIV hitting London during the Thatcher Era, you’ll do far better reading \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/03/13/593216611/author-alan-hollinghurst-on-secret-affairs-narrative-gaps-and-writing-gay-sex\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Alan Hollinghurst\u003c/a>‘s novel \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5337693\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cem>The Line of Beauty\u003c/em>\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The show’s aim is to make us feel both sides of gay life in those years. He celebrates its hedonistic freedom and sheer fun—the show’s fueled by songs from \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/artists/512831993/blondie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Blondie\u003c/a>, Erasure, and the \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/artists/15827120/pet-shop-boys\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pet Shop Boys\u003c/a>, one of whose anthems gives this series its title.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he also wants us to feel the tragedy. And we do. The show is unexpectedly moving, especially Colin’s thread. Characters we like die miserable deaths, and those who don’t struggle against both a profound sense of loss \u003cem>and\u003c/em> a society that seemingly doesn’t care. Everyone is deepened, even the narcissistic Ritchie. [aside postid='arts_13881934']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>It’s a Sin\u003c/em> is far from perfect. Davies originally wrote the show to be eight episodes but could only get funding for five, so the action feels rushed. More space might have let him give his female characters more dimension. While West makes a wonderful Jill, her character is so busy being saintly she has no inner complexity or even sexuality. At the other end, Ritchie’s mum—ferociously played by Keeley Hawes—displays such villainous rigidity that the role verges on misogyny.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet for all that, \u003cem>It’s a Sin\u003c/em> resonates emotionally—especially during the pandemic. As with COVID-19, AIDS had its deniers and its conspiracy theorists.

There’s campy Roscoe, who’s been booted from his home by his Nigerian Christian family and hooks up with a Conservative MP (Stephen Fry). There’s sturdy Ash Mukherjee, an attractive teacher, and the touchingly naive Colin, a young Welshman who works for a Savile Row tailor.

By night, they party—laughing and dancing and shagging like sex is going out of style.
