Navratri’s dancing shoes are off, Dussehra is done, and with Diwali around the corner, you have a rare two-week breather to rest and recharge. On top, the theatres are already full with Paul Thomas Anderson’s chaotically comic, One Battle After Another that some critics have already deemed The Best Movie This Year. If you don’t snag the tickets this weekend, just take a seat on your couch, we have some fresh streaming picks: On Netflix, Cillian Murphy takes on the chaos of a failing reform school in Steve, while Matthew McConaughey drives straight into danger in Apple TV+’s wildfire drama The Lost Bus. Abbott Elementary returns with its Emmy-winning wit, Interview with the Vampire brings gothic glamour to Paris, and Love is Blind drops another round of messy, can’t-look-away romance.
On social media it’s been the week of pop stars—Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s wedding content made our eyes pop, especially the groom’s diamond-encrusted look. Today's big news is an album drop by Selena’s BFF, Taylor Swift, and we’ve rounded up a bunch of reactions to it, just for you. Scroll through The Nod for plenty of reading material for the weekend ahead.
