Cannot believe that I got to profile an extraordinary filmmaker, who happens to be the mother of NYC’s new mayor, and think about intersections of art and politics, and how familial love might produce a buffer against the corrosive politics and cynicism of our time. My story about Mira Nair:

Here's a profile of Beverly Glenn-Copeland, the synth pioneer who was handed the miracle of a career resurgence a decade ago, and who has a new album out today. Now Glenn needs another miracle: to keep making music through dementia – and to find a home www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/arti...

I cannot adequately convey how much I loved Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie. Read what @hertzbarry.bsky.social has to say about it - and then go see this movie Feb 13 when it opens. Elbows up, laugh your head off, go Canada. NTBTSTM is so, so great. www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/film...

Astonishing is the right word. I’m stunned…

I'll say more before too long, but for now: Thanks to anyone who has ever read and supported the Post's books coverage.

the Washington Post effectively blew up its arts section today, dismissing its books, TV, music, and theater critics, features writers, and several editors. (I'm also guessing the vacant film critic position will stay that way.) Just an insane loss of talent and a huge self-inflicted wound.

A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

It's (finally) official, despite last-minute concerns about emergency brakes. After 15 years and $13-billion, the Eglinton Crosstown is supposed to open on Sunday. But there will be no ceremony that day, and no Shuffle Demons, TTC says. #TOpoli #Onpoli www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

The AGO is disbanding the committee that decided not to go ahead with the Nan Goldin acquisition. @joshokane.bsky.social has been leading and breaking this story for the past week and a bit. A huge amount of work has gone into reporting this story. www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/arti...

Tonight I watched Prime Minister Mark Carney take the actual Heated Rivalry Canada fleece from Hudson Williams, slip it on and say: “This is true soft power.”

Did you know Eddie Murphy starred in a new action-comedy last summer? That John Cena and Idris Elba led a buddy flick? Jack Black played Santa! Melissa McCarthy met a genie!

The #AGO acknowledged both the discord over Nan Goldin's work and the governance review: “Personal political views were brought into the conversation. This is not intended to be part of the process,” a spokesperson said. @joshokane.bsky.social on the artist's video work Stendhal Syndrome. 1/2

I love my profession deeply, but some of them are not covering themselves in glory these days. If a mob boss draws a sharp blade languidly across your palm and says it would be a real shame for you to lose your pinky, your headline isn't "Godfather rules out hacking off finger to settle debt."

I do love this musical and excited to see this Montreal-Toronto production.

BREAKING: Sean McDermott is out as the Bills’ head coach, a source tells The Athletic.

Sure. Why not? Makes as much sense as anything else. Why don't they invite Kim Jong-un too, and launch a Democracy Promotion Foundation while they're at it?

We now have a full-blown European-American crisis, and for no reason that the president is able to articulate

Wow! That last line.
