This has been a great year for movies, and sitting at the top of many “best of” lists is Poor Things, Yorgos Lanthimos’ strange mixture of steampunk science fiction, Frankensteinian horror, bawdy European sex comedy, and feminist allegory. Starring Emma Stone as the increasingly radicalized Bella Baxter, the movie is unlike any other this year, and is perhaps the most original film to come out of Hollywood in a very long time. Part of that reason is due to Irish cinematographer Robbie Ryan, who uses all the tools in his arsenal — fish-eye lenses, VistaVision cameras — to help create…

An Indian teenager died on Friday afternoon after being hospitalised for a medical complication, sending shockwaves across the community. The 13-year-old student was rushed to the hospital after collapsing at home on Wednesday. “He was studying at home when he suddenly collapsed,” said social worker Naseer Vatanappally, speaking to Khaleej Times. “Upon rushing him to the hospital, doctors found that he had suffered from a brain haemorrhage.

In October, the European Union awarded its top rights honour, the Sakharov Prize, to her and the global movement her…

Olivia Rodrigo, the bearer of perhaps the most famous driver’s license in Los Angeles, piloted her black Range Rover to Westwood on a scorching late July afternoon. Six weeks remained before the release of her second album, Guts, and she was racked with anxiety — about finding a spot for her SUV. (“Parking in LA is a hellscape,” she later proclaimed.) The car was her dream purchase, her favourite place to listen to music and yes, she feels guilty about the gas. She kept the stereo off as she circled her destination with increasing despair. A woman crossing a narrow…

Last season Colour Up, who showcased his sprinting prowess with three wins and two seconds in six starts, narrowly missed out on making it to the Dubai Golden Shaheen (G1), the premier sprint race in the UAE run on Dubai World Cup night. It seemed only natural that his trainer, Doug Watson, would be crestfallen, considering Colour Up had done almost everything right. However, Watson, a record-setting eight-time UAE Champion Trainer, is as sporting as they come and is enthusiastically preparing the five-year-old son of Tally Ho stud’s young stallion Mehmas, for another high-level campaign pointing towards the Golden Shaheen.…

The mouse has been dunked on for years at this point, often pointed to as an example of the worst of Apple’s design ethos. Despite all the positive changes to Macs over the past few years, the Magic Mouse has remained stagnant. A new report, however, indicates that the Mac accessories will undergo a major change in early 2024. The Magic Keyboard, Magic Trackpad, and Magic Mouse will reportedly all be moving to USB-C…
