F1 heads to Baku with McLaren chasing Red Bull, Lando Norris chasing Max Verstappen, and Sauber chasing their first points of the season

What a difference a year makes.

'Nutcrackers' review: Ben Stiller aims for 'Uncle Buck' and misses

When a filmmaker begins their curtain speech with how their movie is a rejection of cynicism, as David Gordon Green did before the Toronto Film Festival premiere of his new film Nutcrackers, it sets off certain alarm bells in critics. It seems like a clumsy attempt at critic-proofing a film by implying that if you don't like it, you are the problem. You are insufficient in humanity! (These same sentiments were said by a producer in the curtain speech before the premiere of Chris Pine's...

Her demanding husband Curtley (David Webber) is never surprised, and quietly accepts his wife's latest venomous tirade, knowing full well that he could be its next target.

As they took on the Cleveland Browns in Week 1, the Cowboys decided to let Aubrey get another chance from 66 yards — which would tie Justin Tucker’s NFL record. Aubrey booted it...
