You political junkies know how important this was. The future of Ukraine, the future of NATO, and maybe even the future of the European Union hung in the balance. Macron’s opponent is a pro-Putin right-winger.

He did win by a comfortable 16-17 points or so, but consider this: (1) he defeated the same woman by 32 points the last time they faced off; (2) 41% of the French people voted for a pro-Putin candidate during a Putin-ordered war. We live in troubled times.

This is one of the best nude scenes of the year so far, but is unlikely to make our year-end list, given: (1) it’s an obscure crowd-funded film that is basically a two-character play; (2) she’s totally unknown (she’s the writer/director/star’s girlfriend); (3) it’s April, so nobody will remember this in December.

Info about the film here. It’s in French, but I’m sure you’ll figure out how to work around that.

This is the highly touted new series about Watergate, featuring Julia Roberts as Martha Mitchell, Sean Penn as John Mitchell, Betty Gilpin as John Dean’s wife, Patton Oswalt as his lookalike Chuck Colson, etc.

Allie Marie Adams is the innovative casting as Richard Nixon. Who knew Tricky Dick also had a Tricky Cooch? (I’m just fuckin’ witcha. I don’t think Nixon is portrayed. That said, she would be a massive upgrade from the original Nixon.)
