Officially, there’s still a month of summer left — but who are we kidding? Happy reading. —Gregory CowlesCOUNTERWEIGHTDjunaThis novel by a pseudonymous Korean science fiction writer (and translated by Anton Hur.) envisions a space elevator built on a fictional Asian island by a multinational corporation.

☆ ‘Lady Killer’ and ‘The Strange Mister Victor’ Review: A Golden Age
  + stars: | 2023-08-03 | by ( Beatrice Loayza | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
Compared to other heavy hitters from the golden age of French cinema — think Jean Renoir (“The Rules of the Game”) or Marcel Carné (“Children of Paradise”) — history hasn’t been kind to Jean Grémillon. This is especially the case in the United States, where the director’s work continues to be discussed among cinephiles like a special secret. “Lady Killer” stars the leonine Jean Gabin as Lucien, a womanizing legionnaire. Lucien falls hard for Madeleine and takes up a job at a print shop in Paris so that they can be together. In his early days, Grémillon was a violinist who played with an orchestra that provided accompaniment for silent films.
