If Tom Ripley lived in LA in 2018 and was really into lo-fi bedroom pop, he might look something like the main character of Lurker. The debut feature from Alex Russell, The Bear and Beef writer-producer, is an elegantly creepy thriller about one super-fan’s scheme to become close to his musical idol, transposing author Patricia Highsmith’s “two-man theme” into a murkier grey territory, with parasitic attachment giving way to co-dependence that blooms into something that looks like a twisted kind of love.The lurker of the title is Matthew (Théodore Pellerin), an isolated twentysomething who lives with his grandma and works…

Researchers have since argued about its position on the human family tree and had trouble figuring out its age — until now.In the new study, published online Aug. 14 in the Journal of Human Evolution, researchers dated calcite (a mineral form of calcium carbonate often found in caves) protruding out of the skull to find that it was at…

Re Phoebe Taplin’s article (Coves, caves and Agatha Christie – a car-free tour along the English Riviera in Devon, 19 August), my in-laws live in Devon and we visit often from our home in the East Midlands. It is a long drive, with little to look at along the M6/M5, and Phoebe’s trip sounded so charming that I thought perhaps the train would provide us with an alternative. A quick look on a tickets app advises me that for the bargain price of £450 the four of us could travel to Torquay in seven hours and six minutes with four…

Air pollution from oil and gas causes more than 90,000 premature deaths and sickens hundreds of thousands of people across the US each year, a new study shows, with disproportionately high impacts on communities of color.More than 10,000 annual pre-term births are attributable to fine particulate matter from oil and gas, the authors found, also linking 216,000 annual childhood-onset asthma cases to the sector’s nitrogen dioxide emissions and 1,610 annual lifetime cancer cases to its hazardous air pollutants.The highest number of impacts are seen in California, Texas, New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, while the per-capita incidences are highest in…

The measles outbreak in Texas has officially ended, but as cases continue to be detected in other parts of the US state health experts are warning of the need to prepare for outbreaks in undervaccinated communities, especially as anti-vaccine beliefs are becoming more prominent during the Trump administration.So far this year, 1,356 confirmed measles cases, largely from 32 outbreaks, have been reported across the US – compared with last year’s entire total of 285 cases and 16 outbreaks. While the Texas outbreak initially drove the case counts, other US outbreaks are now contributing in increasing numbers.To prepare for new and…

“I have a question,” Zoë Kravitz posed to her Caught Stealing co-star Austin Butler and Rolling Stone film critic David Fear while playing a Nineties trivia challenge game recently. “How old you were when you when you realized what Pearl Jam means? It’s jizz, dude.” “I’ve also heard that it was a jam that Eddie Vedder’s grandmother made where it was an hallucinogenic jam,” replies Fear. “You’d take it and have visions.” Their confusion about the origin of Pearl Jam’s name is understandable. In the early days of the band, they were asked about the name in nearly every interview.…
