VistaVision, the large-scale film format used largely in the 1950s, is enjoying a big-screen revival. At the Academy Awards on March 15, a movie made largely with decades-old antique film equipment is poised to win best picture. “One Battle After Another” is the first film in more than 60 years largely shot with and projected in VistaVision. Another best-picture nominee, “Bugonia,” was also shot on VistaVision. Even in 2026, when most films are shot digitally and AI has begun filtering into moviemaking, the films have showed that a vintage, analog film system can still astonish moviegoers.

Denmark is debating whether top-level cooking counts as art, and the country’s most theatrical restaurants sit at the center of it. The culture ministry is exploring formal recognition for gastronomy. Some chefs say food can carry ideas, emotion, and social messages, like modern performance art. They also say art status could unlock public funding and private grants. But others say food has a different purpose which must be consumed. Art voices say chefs could start competing for the same cultural money.

Thirty years after the success of its star-studded “Help” benefit compilation, War Child UK is releasing its follow-up called “Help(2)." The project features Arctic Monkeys, Olivia Rodrigo, Wet Leg and others. The album, out Friday, is meant to raise money and attention for the charity's initiatives supporting children living through war. War Child UK’s Rich Clarke says the timing felt right because musicians now feel they need to act. Pulp's Jarvis Cocker said the band finished a long-stalled song for the album and even allowed children to film him in the studio for the companion documentary.
Artificial intelligence's dystopian specter has spawned a pair of documentaries dissecting a technology that's depicted as ravenous parasite devouring humanity's knowledge, creativity and empathy. The films, "Deepfaking Sam Altman" and "The AI Doc," examine the issue through different lenses while similarly illuminating why the technology evokes both existential fears and utopian visions about how it might change the world. The documentaries' arrival coincides with an intensifying debate about whether AI will become a catalyst that helps enlighten and enrich people or a technological toxin that insidiously dulls human intelligence while wiping out millions of high-paying jobs that have traditionally required college educations.

Movie Review: Maggie Gyllenhaal's 'The Bride!' is a Frankenstein riff with a pulse
AP
The LA city council has voted unanimously to designate the the so-called “Brady Bunch” house in the San Fernando Valley as a historic-cultural monument. The vote grants landmark protections to the house on Dilling Avenue that was used for exterior shots of the TV sitcom that ran from 1969 to 1974. Interior scenes were shot on a soundstage, with sets that bore no resemblance to the property that become a photo-op magnet for “Brady Bunch” fans. The landmark status protects the home, built in 1959, from demolition or major renovations — but doesn’t prohibit them.

An independent researcher has asserted that a marble bust of Christ in a Roman church is by Michelangelo. It's the latest purported attribution to the Renaissance genius who is one of the most imitated artists in the world. The unverified claim by Valentina Salerno on Wednesday has unsettled Renaissance scholars, especially since a recent sketch of a foot, attributed to Michelangelo but disputed by some as a copy, recently fetched $27.2 million at auction. Salerno has published her initial claims online.

Some of the sharpest criticism President Donald Trump has faced in the early days of the Iran war has come from once-loyal media figures more accustomed to singing his praises. The conservative media infrastructure has grown so influential and valuable to the Republican president when everything runs smoothly that it's noticeable when there's discontent. Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly and Matt Walsh are among the notable figures to express some dismay, much of it centered around the influence of Israel. Walsh has also said the messaging around the war was muddled. Trump says he knows MAGA best and these objections don't reflect the views of his supporters.

The Rijksmuseum says a painting once dismissed as “not a Rembrandt” is now confirmed as a work by the Dutch Golden Age master. On Monday, the museum unveils “Vision of Zacharias in the Temple” after two years of close study. Experts used high-tech scans and compared pigments and paint layers with other Rembrandt works. They also dated the wood panel to before 1633, the year on the painting. A private collector bought it in 1961, and it has stayed out of view for decades. The owner, who has remained anonymous, initially asked the museum only if the painting was Dutch.
