Il Boom B&BAt Boom, stay with Angelo, his son, their three cats … and countless famous actresses whose pictures grace the walls of the three rented rooms (named, respectively, Magnani, Loren, and Vitti). On the top floor of a century-old palazzo (no lift), it has retro crown-moulded ceilings, a vintage jukebox, and there's even a life-sized Marilyn Monroe cut-out in the kitchen.
Redeem now Quentin Tarantino's "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" tells the story of an aging Western actor, played by Leonardo DiCaprio, and his stunt double/best friend Cliff Booth, played by Brad Pitt. The film is set in 1969, and does an excellent job of recreating the sights and sounds of that era. "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" also made headlines when it came to light that Tarantino didn't allow cell phones on set, and only one complete copy of the script was in existence.

“Hurry up and wait”: It’s a ruling concept of military life, and it was the ruling conceit of the first installment in HBO’s seven-part Iraq-war mini-series — which, after all, was written by David Simon and Ed Burns, reality-obsessed masterminds of The Wire, and based on the account of an embedded reporter for Rolling Stone. So, yeah, nothing really happened last night: As we meet them, the First Reconnaissance Battalion Marines are hanging around Camp Mathilda in Kuwait, indulging their homoerotic impulses and wondering when they’ll get to invade Iraq; then they begin leading the invasion of Iraq.
But even when the initial frenzy quieted down, the investigation was frequently revisited over the years. Amateur sleuths took up the case as well, chat rooms and message boards giving way to social media and Reddit threads. The most notable deep dive of late came courtesy of musician Chris Lambert's 2019-2020 podcast Your Own Backyard, seemingly a nod both to the proximity of the crime to where he grew up and authorities' suspicion that Paul had buried Kristin close to home.

Word on the Mayfair streets is that Victoria Beckham is setting up her first shop in London.

The ’55-year-old’ had been in the UFC even before the current UFC boss, Dana White, planned to take it over. However, Rogan’s tenure in the pre-Dana White UFC lasted only for a year and a half. But, as soon as White gained power, he immediately called Rogan back into the company. ‘The UFC boss’ also handed him a number of added responsibilities this time compared to his previous tenure.
