Hello readers and welcome to another instalment of the Indy Culture newsletter. I'm coming to you live from… not Glastonbury. Sadly I am one of the few who isn't at Worthy Farm this weekend, not that I'm bitter or anything! If that's you, too, then be sure to follow along with our live coverage here. We'll have all the reviews, updates, and hot gossip from our reporters on the ground. Speaking of hot gossip, I lost my bet on this year's first secret set, who was revealed to be Lorde! Fresh from the release of her new album (which our music critic felt tepidly about), the Kiwi singer delivered a cracking performance. In non-Glastonbury news, there is plenty else going on to whet your cultural appetite. The world's most stressful show is back, with The Bear returning for its fourth season. I had a chance to speak with Abby Elliott, who plays Carmy's sister, about its return, her time on SNL – and her famous dad! Did you know they were related? Also back on the screen is Danny Boyle with 28 Years Later: let's try to make sense of the mind-boggling twist together. In a surprising turn of events, the kids have started using Letterboxd, which may just be the saving grace of cinema – at least if Louis is to be believed. It's been a big week for theatre – albeit with a mixed-bag of results. Our theatre critic was left uninspired by both Disney's Hercules musical (hero to zero?) and Billy Porter's directorial debut at Soho Theatre. Much more satisfying was Ruth Wilson's Moon for the Misbegotten, as well as Pete Townshend's Quadrophenia at Sadler's Wells. The Who meets ballet? Sign me up. That's it from me – excuse me while I go back to living my non-Glastonbury existence. See you next time, |

Critically lambasted on its release, and so commercially unsuccessful that the filmmaker signed onto 'The Shining' for an easy box-office win, 1975's 'Barry Lyndon' has only been embraced – then even more embraced – in the decades since. As it arrives back in cinemas, Xan Brooks salutes an often misunderstood classic |

Each week we'll be asking you to pick between two trending pieces of culture –films, shows, albums etc. It's a bit of a random selection this time around with demon-doll M3GAN going up against pop star Dua Lipa who who recently made her Wembley debut. I mean, they're both great dancers? Last week, it was a battle of blockbusters with Brad Pitt's F1 going toe-to-toe with the children's animation Elio. F1 pulled ahead in the race – but only just, with 56 per cent of the vote. |
