Jodi Balfour admits that appearing on “The Crown” was “a two-fold challenge.” She was already a fan of the Netflix series, and on top of that she was tasked with playing iconic first lady Jackie Kennedy. “I was incredibly nervous just being a part of something that I think is so incredible, and then to enter into that playing someone who comes with a lot of baggage” made the actress feel “a huge responsibility, but one that was incredibly exciting.” Watch our exclusive video interview with Balfour above.

It’s impossible to talk about “Rellik,” the new detective series from Cinemax, without diving into how it’s told. Moving backwards from the end of a serial killer investigation and told in reverse order, there’s an immediate sense that this is not like other shows. Even unlike “American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace,” which kept entire episodes moving forward as it gradually worked its way back through a murder-filled timeline, “Rellik” is a sequence of scenes and interactions that hop back in time in a half-dozen ways every chapter.
The one benefit that this structure offers “Rellik” is the ability to put the audience in a detective’s mindset more explicitly than any other detective show. As Dci Gabriel Markham (Richard Dormer) wades through the oppressively dark waters of a string of murders and acid attacks, “Rellik” leaves it to the viewer to hunt for clues...

They’re non-corporeal cut-ups, rich ghosts on the town with nothing better to do than spice up the love life of Roland Young’s harried, henpecked bank president. Hal Roach’s screwball hit did good things for everybody concerned, especially star Cary Grant and bit player Arthur Lake. But the show’s nostalgic heart is Billie Burke, of the tinkly-glass voice. Also starring platinum blonde Constance Bennett, Alan Mowbray and Eugene Pallette.

Cary Grant movies: 'An Affair to Remember' does justice to its title (photo: Cary Grant ca. late 1940s) Cary Grant excelled at playing Cary Grant. This evening, fans of the charming, sophisticated, debonair actor -- not to be confused with the Bristol-born Archibald Leach -- can rejoice, as no less than eight Cary Grant movies are being shown on Turner Classic Movies, including a handful of his most successful and best-remembered star vehicles from the late '30s to the late '50s. (See also: "Cary Grant Classic Movies" and "Cary Grant and Randolph Scott: Gay Lovers?") The evening begins with what may well be Cary Grant's best-known film, An Affair to Remember. This 1957 romantic comedy-melodrama is unusual in that it's an even more successful remake of a previous critical and box-office hit -- the Academy Award-nominated 1939 release Love Affair -- and that it was directed...
