As the 19th-century empress once wrote in her diary, it’s the age where “a person begins to disperse and fade, darkening like a cloud.” The line is voiced in the film, revealing so much about what the protagonist, and what society at the time, made of getting older. Vicky Krieps, the Luxembourg-born star of the film and its executive producer, first brought the project to Kreutzer because she...

But perhaps nothing has captured social-media chatter like the Euphoria star’s wardrobe, curated with the expert eye of stylist Law Roach and generating almost universal acclaim—a rarity amongst fashion critics, who tend to savor the misses almost as much as the hits in VIP dressing. Even Zendaya’s smaller gigs make for a sartorial gift, as was evident during Sunday’s Euphoria FYC...

That of the Yellowstone Ranch, upon which the fictional Dutton family has lived since the late 1800s, is foremost in the mind of patriarch John Dutton III, played by Kevin Costner with the gruff bluster of a cowboy past his prime. He often seems more interested in the well-being of this land than that of his own children—or, perhaps, it’s simply that he has an easier time understanding what it needs to thrive. But if the...
