Restored by Shivendra Singh Dungarpur and the Film Heritage Foundation, the film, in ravishingly revived form, was selected for the prestigious Cannes Classics section as a testament to Ray’s enduring influence on world cinema through classics like 1955’s Panther Panchali, which is the first film in the director’s celebrated Apu Trilogy. To mark the occasion, The Hollywood Reporter India spoke with three individuals deeply touched by the film and its creator: legendary Indian actress…
I had been getting my hair done by the same woman for over 10 years, and a few years ago, she stopped taking appointments and spending more time with her family. And I love that for her and totally understand, but I don’t trust anyone else with my hair (or have the energy to find someone new that I can trust), so when she started to slow down on appointments, I started to take note of everything she used on my hair. I collected the serums, shampoo, and conditioner she used, then grabbed the flat iron she uses — this flat…

On the surface, at least, there wouldn’t seem to be very much for Matt Berninger to be sad about. The celebrated frontman of The National, 54, is chummy with with Barack Obama. He takes meetings at the San Vicente Bungalows, (the trendy member’s club gets name-checked on his new solo album, Get Sunk). And Taylor Swift is a friend and collaborator; he sang on “Coney Island” from Evermore back in 2020; she returned the favor appearing on The National’s 2023 song “The Alcott”.
