Chris Rock at an event for Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted (2012)
Four years on from #MeToo, the Oscars’ feminism has gone backwards | Catherine Shoard
Chris Rock at an event for Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted (2012)
While the dial only seemed to be turning one way, the 94th Academy Awards was unexpectedly rich in sexist ‘her-indoors’ gags, undoing any progress

If this year’s Oscars had a spirit animal, you’d have to say it was Les Dawson. An uncharacteristically aggressive and unfunny Dawson, perhaps. But the 94th Academy Awards proved to be an evening unexpectedly rich in “her-indoors” gags for the lads, while women stood on the sidelines making abashed cracks about their own physical shortcomings.

The most generous possible reading of Chris Rock’s joke about Jada Pinkett Smith, for instance, is that he simply finds the idea of a woman having short hair hilarious. This does not seem unlikely. After all, his preceding gag concerned the domestic nightmare which would await poor Javier Bardem should he win best actor but his missus, Penélope Cruz, fail to bag best actress. You know what women are like!

Hard Sun episode 4 review
Louisa Mellor Jan 27, 2018

Hard Sun delivers its most coherent episode yet as the net closes in on the Good Samaritan killer. Spoilers…

This review contains spoilers.

See related Joe Wright interview: Darkest Hour

Despite having improvised his super-villain disguise from a sock and a Biro (nothing erodes sinister vibes like evidence of arts and crafts), Hard Sun’s Good Samaritan Killer turned out to be a very passable TV baddie. Richard Coyle played him with the kind of unhinged intensity we’ve come to expect from pulp bad guys. With a good coat, a twinkle in his eye, a hobbyist interest in bible verse graffiti, and scant regard for the dubious hygienic practice of licking street-facing windows, he ticked every box of the thriller wrong’un.
