Her set was laced with sweet moments with her brother and bandmate Finneas, as the two performed several acoustic tracks together.
Joined by Damon Albarn and Posdnous, the Gen Z hero broadened her audience and proved that she can conquer literally any crowd. Here, we run down the best of what the weekend had to offer.īillie Eilish closed out Saturday’s festivities with a performance for the people, as she sang most of her Happier Than Ever tracks on the catwalk and among the crowd.

Has the movie aged well? It certainly is of its time and its vehement, earnest alliance of the personal and the political – and the sexual and the ideological – is a kind of high-minded talky cinema that is difficult to imagine getting produced now.The gears of the Coachella machine seemed rusty on Friday, as fans spent hours trying to exit the grounds following Styles’ set. She was the image of pure contemporary sexiness as the beautiful, unnamed female character in Alain Resnais’s Hiroshima Mon Amour (1959) who in long, ruminative dialogue scenes about love, memory and loss talks with her Japanese ex-lover (Eiji Okada) about the decline and fall of their relationship – boldly bringing in parallels with Hiroshima. Riva’s performance as Anne also showed other things: her courage as her condition declines, her formidable personality as a musician, her heartwrenching desire never to be put in a care home, and then her calm determination as she tacitly cedes to her poor husband the terrifying responsibility of deciding when and how to carry out euthanasia when the situation becomes unbearable.īut Riva became an another type of icon in earlier era – the age of the New Wave.
