Matt Dillon in The House That Jack Built. This review originally ran during the Cannes Film Festival. It takes about an hour for Lars von Trier to make a predator/prey animal metaphor in his serial-killer movie, complete with archival nature-documentary footage and heavy-handed voice-over. According to Jack (Matt Dillon), creatively interpretingWilliam Blake, there are tigers and lambs, and it is in the tiger’s nature to devour the lamb. Jack, of course, sees himself as a tiger — because he is a killer, but also because he likes to think of himself as an artist, burning bright and fearful.

Las Culturistas, a culture podcast hosted by comedians Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers, returned to Lincoln Center for their annual Las Culturistas Culture Awards in New York City. Last year’s show featured celebrity guests (hey, Taylor Swift made a virtual appearance last year), sing-alongs, commitments to the bit, and references to Bravo shows. Saturday night’s show promised to highlight every high and low point in pop culture in the past year, Scandoval included.

Last night on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, Pauly D shares his knowledge of the Italian language when Christina Applegate’s hand suddenly creeps onto the screen, copping a feel of his “stiff,” “porcupine-y” blowout. Plus: In other bilingual goodness, Alexander Skårsgard drawls out his native Swedish accent, which might still be too sexy for a possible gig as a weird, little sidekick; Ringer’s Sarah Michelle Gellar is her own favorite co-star; and Howie Mandel touts the germaphobic advantages of the fist bump while Conan laughs at the hell that is his life.

Superlatives A Vulture series in which artists judge the best and worst of their own careers. “It’s always been ironic being associated with basements, being a band from Florida. There are no basements in South Florida.” I’m on a Zoom call with Laura Jane Grace, trying not to eavesdrop on the conversation she’s having with, of all people, her insurance adjuster.

Jessica Hecht and Laura Linney in Summer, 1976. The key pleasure of Summer, 1976 comes from listening to Laura Linney and Jessica Hecht talk. The two of them — how haven’t they worked alongside each other before? — have distinct instruments and know how to deploy them so well. Linney’s got an assertive alto, while Hecht’s timbre is reedier and more winding, a viola and oboe. I’d happily see them take on any number of double-act parts (Hecht’s Glinda to Linney’s Elphaba?

Can you use “mind grapes” in a sentence? Over seven seasons, Tina Fey & Co. have introduced dozens of new phrases into the lexicons of obsessive sitcom viewers: As “yada yada yada” was to the nineties, “blerg” is to the 21st century.

Lee Daniels started work on his girl-group drama Star far before the election results rolled in this year, but now that they have, he feels the show’s themes have some added resonance, mostly because they finally give us all the chance to relate to a white girl on TV. “In the beginning, [Star] is told through a white girl’s perspective,” Daniels said, explaining why the show initially centers on Jude Demorest, who plays a character named Star, “because I felt that the country, instinctively, I thought, needed to heal.
