While Netflix continues to tell the tale of Queen Elizabeth II with “The Crown,” Starz is bringing the story of the first Queen Elizabeth to a small screen near you with a series order for new drama “Becoming Elizabeth.”
Created and written by award-winning playwright and television screenwriter Anya Reiss, “Becoming Elizabeth” is the “fascinating story of the early life of England’s most iconic Queen,” according to Starz. “Long before she ascended the throne, young Elizabeth Tudor was an orphaned teenager who became embroiled in the political and sexual politics of the English court. With no clear heir, the death of King Henry the VIII sets into motion a dangerous scramble for power. His surviving children find themselves pawns in a game between the great families of England and the powers of Europe who vie for control of the country.”

If Donald Trump hadn’t been elected president, “The L Word: Generation Q” might not exist.
In the years before the 2016 election, Ilene Chaiken, the Showtime drama’s co-creator, and a few of its lead actors had batted around the idea of reviving “The L Word.” But during that November night, as it became clear that Trump was going to win, what was once an amusing parlor game of “what if?” for Chaiken and star Jennifer Beals turned into a call to action. “We were texting one another,” Chaiken says, “with that kind of desperation that I think so many of our friends and colleagues probably were sharing in one way or another: We’ve got to do something!”
The morning after the election, they decided what that “something” was: It was time for the show to return. “It’s not like we thought bringing back ‘The L Word...

Disingenuousness is a disaster for a documentary. I recently watched two documentaries about St*ve B*annon and while it’s obvious he is a despicable human and despite whatever I may have felt about the movies themselves, one thing you can never call that man is disingenuous. He truly believes every that he says.
The same cannot be said for former First Lady of the Philippines, Imelda Marcos, who is the narrative thrust and central subject of The Kingmaker. Something of a natural progression for director Lauren Greenfield’s whose earlier films The Queen of Versailles and Generation Wealth have each dealt with the lives of people with too much time and money. Marcos is foregrounded for the documentary’s first half and listening to her seemingly endless self-aggrandising about beauty, love, and this idea she holds so dear of being a mother to the Filipino...

Lena Dunham has never been coy about publicly discussing her demons, from the body-image issues she mined in her HBO series “Girls,” to the sexual abuse she experienced while in college (as detailed in her 2014 memoir of essays “Not That Kind of Girl”), and, most recently, with her substance-abuse issues.
At a benefit for the Peggy Albrecht Friendly House treatment center for women, which took place at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles on Saturday, Dunham spoke about her battle with addiction in frank terms. Also joining Dunham at the event was veteran actress Demi Moore, who recently came forward about her own addiction issues, among other troubles, in her new memoir “Inside Out.”
“I thought drug addicts were depraved lunatics who wandered the streets, demanding crack from innocent children and flaunting their open wounds in public parks,” Dunham said. “And I was a successful, capable celebrity who wandered...

Despite my personal opinions, the reception to Star Trek V: The Final Frontier was nothing short of disastrous: A Razzie for Worst Picture, derision across the board, enough fallout to kill the career of producer Harve Bennett and stop William Shatner from ever directing another movie.
