Best Coast’s Bethany Cosentino lambasts Wasserman Music, citing Epstein connections

Casey Wasserman, who founded an agency and leads the committee organizing the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, appears in newly released documents from the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. It was already known that Wasserman and his then-wife, Laura, had flown on Epstein’s plane. However, these documents also reveal sexually suggestive messages exchanged between Wasserman and Ghislaine Maxwell, a close associate of Epstein currently in prison for her role in child sex trafficking.

‘Scarlet,’ an animated take on ‘Hamlet,’ mines an unlikely strain of compassion

As someone who’s seen a lot of animated films that really mean something, I can honestly say Hosoda’s latest, “Scarlet,” is his most powerful and frankly, toughest watch yet. It’s not just the intensity of what happens on screen, but the film asks a really hard question: can you actually forgive someone who doesn’t even seem sorry? It feels like the characters are fighting for their very souls. But even with all the heavy stuff, Hosoda still focuses on what he does best: the beautiful, complicated bond between parents and children. He always handles those relationships with so much understanding, showing the struggles of both sides – the kids needing direction and the parents trying to guide them.
