I think [we wanted] to show her as a woman of accomplishment. That’s her tent show that she’s traveling in. She is the boss of that. She has a strong connection with the audience. You see it in the very beginning: people are lined up and it’s Black hands putting coins into other Black hands.

Everyone’s home is different, so everyone’s favorite chocolate chip cookie is different, too. Chloe and I practically started with a cookie. We met while studying abroad in London. On our first day there, I’d walked to an outpost of Ben’s Cookies, a local chain of biscuit makers. I returned to the flat I shared with

When I heard the news that New York was going to be hit with its first major snowstorm of the season, one that could result in over a foot of snow and potentially knock out the power, I prepared in the most pragmatic, survival-minded way possible: I pulled out my Lord of the Rings extended

Offset rose to fame as a member of hip-hop powerhouse Migos, but he has since established his own identity, releasing a Grammy-nominated solo album, Father of 4, in February 2019. He’s stepping into fashion design with a capsule collection within Chaz A. Jordan’s Laundered Works Corp. at this upcoming Paris Fashion Week. And he will

For the end title, yeah. I just felt like we could justify what you’ve just seen. I wanted to hear a new voice. Just out of curiosity—was Chris familiar with Travis Scott’s music, or did you have to explain that a little bit? I’m pretty sure he was familiar with him. I didn’t ask. But

When Michael Mann’s Heat arrived in the waning days of 1995, audiences came for a showdown between two acting titans and walked away having watched a reinvention of the heist genre. Bigger, more sprawling, and more ambitious than the competition, Heat layered multiple subplots and fringe characters into its tale of a master thief hunted

One night, when he was 15 years old, Gerard Butler dreamed about the movie Krull. The 1983 science-fiction saga, which he calls “a cheap version of Lord of the Rings,” earned poor reviews and flopped at the box office. But its ambitious, anachronistic fantasy—about a valiant prince leading his army against an evil creature—made a

But Harlow can also be reflective about his flaws (he’s been seeing a therapist recently). He recounts running into someone he used to sleep with at a party for over two-and-a-half minutes on “Funny Seeing You Here,” an X-ray of early-twenties awkwardness that culminates with Harlow’s admission that, as a romantic partner, he can fall

Paso Market Walk. Photo courtesy of Paso Market Walk To visit Paso Robles is to take a step back in time to a simpler and slower pace. This quaint, central coast town in San Luis Obispo County was once primarily a ranching and farming community and home to fruit and nut orchards. A relaxed, rural

In my last conversation with him, I told him, “Do what you got to do, get your stuff together, you and your brother. Now y’all can finally have a bond type of relationship with one another.” My plan was for him and his brother to stop here in Florida and get me. I was going

Every situation, every episode is different. For the second unit people, I made a style bible where I made a huge document full of GIFs of stuff that I shot and told them: “This is how I like to compose things. This is the kind of humor I like. This is what I think is

St. Regis Aspen Dec. 9th, 2020 California might be under stay-at-home orders for the remainder of the month, but there’s still time to plan a festive getaway over the holidays. Whether it’s hitting the slopes and getting cozy around the fire for après-ski in the mountains or sunning yourself somewhere tropical like the Maldives or

I’ve been writing a movie with Hunter, which I’m very excited about, so we talk pretty often. And I called her up to get her thoughts on this episode. Several hours later, we were talking and she said something that was based on a poem she had written when she was sixteen about the ocean

What has the reaction been like, both from people in your life who didn’t know about this and strangers who might be feeling some sort of connection to your story? Obviously there are the inevitable trolls on Twitter, but it’s been really, really positive. My family, it’s been really tough to see themselves on HBO.

RJ Sanchez: Moving forward after that, we said, “If we get Latin American stuff, we’ll do it together.” As time went on, we just kept working in that space and we wanted to expand to other stuff too. It felt like the “Reggaeton” video came out right at that point where people realized that the
