This museum has been named England's best
A cynic might suggest that, far from being a brief moment in the calendar, 'awards season' never ends. If it is not the film industry doling out statuettes, then it is time for sporting tributes, art accolades, or the shiny gongs that draw pop stars to black-tie events. So it should be no surprise that the travel world has been wearing its fanciest outfits in the last few days – via the Visit England Awards for Excellence. As the name suggests, this yearly ceremony beams a light onto this country's big achievers in the tourism sector. The winners' list offered hat-tips to everything from major sites like the Royal Crescent in Bath and the National Space Centre in Leicester to self-catering cottages in Cornwall, country pubs in Derbyshire and Devon – and the Ad Gefrin distillery in Northumberland. Yet tucked among these many plaudits was a triumph that some might argue was overdue. The winner in the 'Large Visitor Attraction of the Year' category was the Black Country Living Museum (BCLM); an institution that can hardly be described as 'new' – but which has long done splendid work as a treasure trove of British heritage. It arrived on the map in 1978, but its remit looks back even further, into the mists of the 19th century. Technically, the Black Country Living Museum covers a 300-year chunk of history, but its focus is mainly on the window of time between 1850 and 1950, when the Industrial Revolution had prompted a period of almost unprecedented productivity, sweat and toil in this corner of the West Midlands. There is no precise geographical definition of 'the Black Country', but its boundaries are generally deemed to encompass Dudley, Sandwell, Walsall and Wolverhampton (while stopping just short of Birmingham). Academic opinion varies on whether its moniker refers to the rich coal seam that was mined in the area, or the high levels of soot that haunted its air (and with it, its residents' faces) in the 19th century – but the connection to heavy industry is implicit. The museum in Dudley digs into the epoch almost as effectively as colliers' pickaxes once clawed at the prized materials buried in the ground. Unlike many of Britain's industrial landmarks, which have been refurbished to a 'higher' purpose – the one-time Bankside and Battersea Power Stations in London, reinvented as Tate Modern and a retail and restaurant complex, respectively; the former Baltic Flour Mill in Gateshead, now repurposed as a contemporary art gallery – the BCLM revels in the dirt underneath its fingernails. An impressive 26 acres in scope, it makes use of a site which incorporates many of the essential elements of Britain's industrial era – a railway goods yard, coal pits, lime kilns, a section of the Dudley Canal. Although many of the buildings have been transposed to the site, they have been brought in – and in many cases, spared from demolition – from the surrounding area. Thus there is an 1860s brass foundry from Walsall, an 1880s nail forge from Halesowen, and a 1920s rolling mill from Oldbury. All of them contribute to a pleasing clamour and clang. Visitors can watch links being fired at a chainmaker's smithy, or take a narrowboat ride into the (somewhat claustrophobic) confines of the Dudley Tunnel. And there are stores which remember a more innocent everyday commerce: a turn-of-the-century sweet shop, a Victorian pharmacy, a gentlemen's outfitters preserved as it would have looked in 1935. There are trams and trolleybuses too, and a collection of cars – from makers as lost to view as Sunbeam, Clyno, AJS and Star – that drove these streets in the 1910s and 1920s. If all this sounds like a dreary vision from a particularly rainy school trip, then, as a relatively biased witness – I grew up in the area – I can happily vouch for the BCLM as an entirely welcome alternative to a day in a 1980s classroom. It seems to have retained its charm in the 21st century too. When I took my primary-school-aged son to visit it a few summers ago, he spent most of a sunny afternoon learning to hoop-roll down one of the site's steeper cobbled lanes. Simple pleasures and all that. There is one element of newness to a museum whose whole ethos is its avowed refusal to keep up with the times – the recent £30million redevelopment that has stretched its reference points into the living memory of the 1960s, with all the music, burgeoning technology and rapidly changing fashions that such time-travel entails. This 'update' is one of the reasons for the BCLM's success at the Visit England Awards – although would-be day-trippers can be assured that the museum remains defiantly stuck in the past.

Why Kylie Jenner has been wearing black when supporting BF Timothee Chalamet at public events
Fashion observers noted a striking trend with Kylie Jenner after she made her red carpet debut with her boyfriend Timothee Chalamet earlier this month - she almost always wears black when supporting him at public events. Prior to wearing a gorgeous black Schiaparelli gown at the 70th David Di Donatello Awards in Rome on May 7, she previously sported black ensembles at nearly every awards-season event that she accompanied the 29-year-old Oscar nominee to. And now Kylie has finally revealed why she goes monochrome so often when out with Timothee. The 27-year-old admitted to Harper's Bazaar in an article published on Wednesday that she opted for jet black so as not to distract from her boyfriend's achievements. 'Although these are the most beautiful, iconic gowns that I've been wearing, I think a black dress is also kind of like, not too attention grabbing in the best way,' she explained. 'You can never go wrong with a black dress,' Kylie added. Although the monochrome looks served an important function for her, she didn't set out to wear nothing but black throughout awards season. 'I think it just like happened that way,' she admitted. Prior to making her red carpet debut with Timothee in Italy, Kylie was thinking of trying out something more colorful. 'I can't wear another black dress,' she recalled thinking. 'And then of course the most perfect, gorgeous Schiaparelli black dress shows up.' The plunging gown ended up being the perfect way to highlight her curves, and it also drew attention to her sweet PDA with Timothee. He wrapped an arm around her and rested his hand on her midriff as she affectionately grasped his finger, and her patterned black dress created the ideal contrast to show off the hands. Timothee tended to favor more eye-catching outfits during awards season, including a yellow leather suit that he wore to the Oscars, but he matched Kylie in Rome with a chic double-breasted black velvet suit and a matching black shirt that he wore without a tie. Kylie flashed a bit more flesh at the 2025 Academy Awards ceremony when she wore a black bedazzled Miu Miu dress with a triangular cutout over her midriff and a plunging neckline that highlighted her cleavage. She was willing to steal a bit more attention at the Vanity Fair Oscars Party, whens he changed into a sheer corset-style dress from Ashi Studio that left little to the imagination. In the run-up to the Oscars, she stunned in a backless vintage John Galliano gown dating from 1995 that was decorated with shimmering tear drop–shaped spangles at the BAFTA Film Awards in February. Kylie's black pattern doesn't appear to have emerged until after the Golden Globes were held on January 5 of this year, as she wore a striking silver dress to that ceremony. Her turn toward black was also a return to tradition, as it is traditionally a more conservative, formal color. Although women attending awards shows often favor colorful ensembles to contrast men's more conservative attire, Kylie highlighted the more formal roots of the ceremonies with her black outfits. Her public appearances with Timothée were more limited in 2024, but she also favored a black outfit at the 2024 Golden Globes, though she wore a sheer patterned look that was far more risqué than many of her outfits this year She has also occasionally worn black at more casual events, such as the US Open in September 2023, when she wore a black T-shirt to match Timothee's black ensemble. However, the younger sister of Kim Kardashian has also shown that she's willing to stand out when the spotlights aren't as glaring. When she appeared with Timothee at the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells, California, in March, Kylie stood out in a tied-off cropped red blouse covered in white stripes, which stood out against her love's white track suit. She and the Little Women star were first linked back in April of 2023.

Neon, Mubi, A24: The Buyers That Won Cannes 2025
Cannes Film Festival 2025 The Cannes Film Festival is officially over and last night's list of winners is already giving us an overview of the next awards season. While some movies are still looking for a home, the biggest titles of this year's edition such as Die My Love, Sentimental Value, Palme d'Or's winner It Was Just An Accident, Sirat or The Mastermind, quickly became the most coveted titles on the Croisette and inside the Marché du Film. Over the years, Neon has become an incredibly powerful buyer and the possibility that they might get their 6th Palme d'Or in a row became a reality last night, when It Was Just An Accident, directed by Jafar Panahi, was announced by the President of the Jury, Juliette Binoche. After Anora, Anatomy of a Fall, Triangle of Sadness, Titane and Parasite -movies that all led a major awards season- Panahi's film as well as Joachim Trier's Sentimental Value, which won the Grand Prix at Cannes last night, are already some of the strongest contenders that Neon just added to an already impressive track record. On top of these two films, Neon also acquired the rights to Oliver Laxe's Sirat, winner of the Jury Prize last night, Kleber Mendonça Filho's The Secret Agent, who won the Best Director award, Julia Ducournau's Alpha, Michael Angelo Covino's Splitsville and Raoul Peck's Orwell: 2+2=5. However, the first big sale that everyone was talking about on the Croisette last week came from Mubi, which acquired the rights to Lynn Ramsay's Die My Love, starring Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson for $24 million. These past few years, Mubi led a strong awards season by acquiring some big titles during the Cannes Film Festival, like Coralie Fargeat's The Substance last year, and Magnus Von Horn's The Girl with the Needle. This year, the distributor also acquired the rights to the Palme d'Or winner for the distribution in Latin America, U.K., Ireland, Germany, Austria, Turkey and India. Mubi will also distribute Sirat in Italy, Turkey and India. Another big buy from Mubi was last night's second winner of the Jury Prize -a tie with Sirat- The Sound of Falling directed by Mascha Schilinski. On top of that, Mubi also acquired The History of Sound, directed by Oliver Hermanus and starring Paul Mescal and Josh O'Connor, and Kelly Reichardt's The Mastermind, also starring O'Connor. For now, A24 will distribute Ari Aster's Eddington, Spike Lee's Highest to Lowest, and Harry Lighton's debut feature Pillion, starring Alexander Skarsgard and Harry Melling, which won Best Screenplay in the Un Certain Regard competition. This article will be updated as additional sales are announced.

Cannes 2025 Films Sold So Far: Oliver Laxe's ‘Sirât' Acquired by Neon
The Cannes Film Festival is underway, and while the Marché Du Film is as booming as ever with exciting packages of future films, there are plenty of titles playing in competition or in the Cannes sidebars that could make a big splash at the box office or the awards season race for the right buyer. Last year's 'The Substance' was acquired by MUBI before it landed a Best Picture Oscar nomination and made $77.3 million worldwide. Here are the 13 films we predicted ahead of the festival could find homes quickly. We'll update the below list with all the acquisitions as they come in. More from IndieWire These Cannes 2025 Prize Winners Will Inspire Oscar Campaigns Cowboys vs. Accountants: The Real World of International Production Financing | Future of Filmmaking Summit at Cannes Section: CompetitionDistributor: NeonDirector: Oliver LaxeBuzz: Neon's buying spree continues in the distributor's quest to again win the Palme d'Or. This one though has some serious 'Mad Max' vibes, a film set amid explosive electronic music at a rave as a father ventures into the Moroccan desert to search for his missing daughter. The film stars Sergi López, Bruno Núñez, Stefania Gadda, and Jade Oukid and was even produced by Pedro Almodóvar. Neon picked up North American rights and is again hoping to release the film later this year. Just no spoilers please! Section: CompetitionDistributor: NeonDirector: Jafar PanahiBuzz: The Iranian auteur Panahi returned to Cannes for the first time since 2003 for this deeply personal film that was inspired and ideated during his second stint in an Iranian prison. Starring Mariam Afshari, Ebrahim Azizi, and Vahid Mobasser, the film follows a group of dissidents debating whether to kill their former torturer. The film will be released in North America later this year. IndieWire's review called it a 'blistering moral thriller,' and with some of the best reviews of the festival so far, it now looks like a frontrunner for the Palme d'Or. This is also Neon's second time partnering with Panahi after previously releasing his film 'The Year of the Everlasting Storm,' which premiered in Cannes Special Screenings in 2021. Section: CompetitionDistributor: MUBIDirector: Mascha SchilinskiBuzz: Deemed literally the 'buzziest sales title' of Cannes by IndieWire's Ryan Lattanzio and Anne Thompson, 'Sound of Falling' landed at Mubi after a competitive bidding war. Mascha Schilinski's century-spanning coming of age film centers on four generations of women within the same family, all living in a small German farming town across decades. Though separated by time, their lives begin to mirror each other, leading to the question: Can memories be inherited, repeated, and ultimately, relived? IndieWire critic David Ehrlich likened Schilinski to being the next Sofia Coppola. It's clear that Mubi has a gem on its hands. Section: CompetitionDistributor: NeonDirector: Kleber Mendonça FilhoBuzz: If you're handicapping the Palme D'Or race, keep an eye on 'The Secret Agent,' because Neon and Tom Quinn clearly like it's odds if they're jumping to acquire it and keep their streak alive. The distributor picked up North American rights and is planning a theatrical release later in 2025. Star Wagner Moura has earned some early buzz for Best Actor at Cannes, and the film earned strong reviews for the Brazilian auteur behind 'Bacarau.' The film also stars Maria Fernanda Cândido, Gabriel Leon, Carlos Francisco, Alice Carvalho, and Hermila Guedes and follows a technology expert on the run who arrives in Recife, Brazil in 1977 during Carnival week, hoping to reunite with his son, only to realizes that the city is far from being the non-violent refuge he seeks. Section: CompetitionDistributor: MUBIDirector: Lynne RamsayBuzz: The first major sale of Cannes is one of the starriest, with Lynne Ramsay's intense drama about postpartum depression and motherhood starring Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson going to MUBI in a deal for $24 million, IndieWire can confirm. The film is also expected to get a healthy theatrical window and wide release, and MUBI acquired the North American rights in addition to Latin America, UK, Ireland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, BeNeLux, Turkey, India, Australia, and New Zealand. Our review wrote that Lawrence gives the type of performance that is made for the Cannes Best Actress prize in her 'feral' depiction of a woman in rural America engulfed by love and madness. Section: CompetitionDistributor: NeonDirector: Julia DucournauBuzz: It was a hot market title at last year's Cannes, and a year later the latest from the Palme D'Or winner of 'Titane' is back in the main competition. The film follows a 13-year-old girl whose world comes crashing down when she arrives home with a tattoo on her arm. Section: Special ScreeningsDistributor: Apple TV+Director: Andrew DominikBuzz: For his first film since the Marilyn Monroe biopic 'Blonde,' Dominik profiles the U2 frontman as he films the stage production of Bono's one-man show. Section: Director's FortnightDistributor: IFC FilmsDirector: Sean ByrneBuzz: A serial killer movie and a shark movie from the director of 'The Devil's Candy?' What's not to like? Section: CompetitionDistributor: A24Director: Ari AsterBuzz: Destined to be as polarizing as any of his features, Aster's pandemic-set fourth feature is a contemporary Western with a stellar cast that includes Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal, Emma Stone, and Austin Butler. Section: Un Certain RegardDistributor: TriStar Pictures and Sony Pictures ClassicsDirector: Scarlett JohanssonBuzz: June Squibb stars in this indie drama that is also Johansson's directorial debut about a nonagenarian who after 70 years returns to New York city and befriends a student. Section: Out of CompetitionDistributor: Apple TV+ and A24Director: Spike LeeBuzz: Spike Lee's reunion with Denzel Washington for a modern day reimagining of Akira Kurosawa's 'High and Low' looks like one of Lee's most commercial films in years, so it's fitting it will get a theatrical release before landing on streaming. Section: CompetitionDistributor: MUBIDirector: Oliver HermanusBuzz: Paul Mescal and Josh O'Connor star in this romance set in 1917 amid the world of early 20th Century folk music. Section: MidnightDistributor: Focus FeaturesDirector: Ethan CoenBuzz: Ethan Coen's second solo effort again pairs him with his partner and writer Tricia Cooke, as well as star Margaret Qualley, who plays a small-town private eye investigating a church led by a dubious preacher played by Chris Evans. Section: Special ScreeningsDistributor: Sony Pictures ClassicsDirector: Sylvian ChometBuzz: 'The Triplets of Belleville' director brings his eclectic animated style to this biopic of the life of one of France's great artists, Marcel Pagnol. Section: CompetitionDistributor: MUBIDirector: Kelly ReichardtBuzz: Josh O'Connor, Alana Haim, John Magaro, Gaby Hoffmann, Eli Gelb, Hope Davis, and Bill Camp star in this heist film from the 'First Cow' director set in 1970 Massachusetts.
