BOSTON (AP) — Mario Batali’s sexual misconduct trial opened Monday in a Boston court with his accuser recounting how she’d been “shocked, surprised and alarmed” as the celebrity chef aggressively kissed and groped her while taking selfies at a restaurant in 2017. The 32-year-old Boston-area software company worker said she felt confused and powerless to do anything to stop Batali as he grabbed her “in a way that I have never been touched before.” “It was all happening so quickly and it was happening essentially the whole time,” the woman testified in Boston Municipal Court. “Just a lot of touching.” She said she felt embarrassed until she saw other women step forward to share similar encounters with Batali. “This happened to me and this is my life,” the woman said. “I want to be able to ...

[Ed. note: The following contains spoilers for Moon Knight.] Those who think they have a handle on how last week’s Moon Knight finale went down might want to think again. While the miniseries ended with some closure, as the conflicting Marc Spector and Steven Grant personalities (both played by Oscar Isaac) finally came to accept one another and defeat Arthur Harrow (Ethan Hawke) as Moon Knight, there were still a healthy amount of cliffhangers to ponder. And, as series director Mohamed Diab would like fans to remember, plenty of ambiguity throughout. Following the conclusion of Marvel’s ambitious new miniseries, Diab briefly spoke to Polygon about the finale’s twists, his hopes for future Moon Knight stories, and how the show might not be as clear-cut as some may think. This ...

The first trailer for “Avatar: The Way of Water” hit the web Monday after first debuting at CinemaCon and then ahead of “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” — but if you still haven’t seen it, you’re in for a treat. The “Avatar” sequel is directed by James Cameron, based on his 2009 blockbuster hit, and he now takes us underwater with some stunning outerworld cinematography. Set more than a decade after the events of the first film, “Avatar: The Way of Water” begins to tell the story of the Sully family (Jake, Neytiri and their kids), the trouble that follows them, the lengths they go to keep each other safe, the battles they fight to stay alive and the tragedies they endure. “I know one thing: wherever we go, this family is our fortress,” Sam Worthingt...

David Threlfall’s titanic performance, Jesse Green wrote in his review of Martin McDonagh’s “Hangmen,” “offers the most terrifying incarnation yet of the author’s acid misanthropy.”Credit...Sara Krulwich/The New York Times Forty years ago, the English actor David Threlfall was a young actor making his Broadway debut when he was nominated for his first Tony Award for “The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby.” Threlfall, now a 68-year-old veteran stage and screen actor, received his second nomination on Monday, for his role as an executioner-turned-pub-owner in Martin McDonagh’s acclaimed dark comedy “Hangmen.” “It sounds long, doesn’t it, when you put it that way?” Threlfall groaned, speaking in an interview after the nominations were announced on Monday. In “Hangmen” — which re...

Mario Batali, once considered the best-known celebrity chef in the United States, went on trial Monday in Boston on charges of indecent battery and assault connected to what began as a selfie session in a Boston bar in 2017. Several prominent chefs and restaurateurs have been accused of sexual harassment and abuse since the #MeToo movement spread into the world of restaurants and hospitality in the fall of 2017, but Mr. Batali is the only one who has faced criminal charges. If convicted, he could face up to two and a half years in the Suffolk County House of Correction and be required to register as a sex offender. Jury selection had been scheduled to begin on Monday, but in the morning Mr. Batali told Judge James Stanton that he would waive his right to a jury trial and instead leave th...
