The final installment of the Indiana Jones franchise may be lackluster, but Harrison Ford imbues it with heart

BACK FOR ONE LAST ADVENTURE

HARRISON FORD IS KNOWN TO FLUMMOX journalists by being less than forthcoming in interviews; in public appearances, he tends to radiate an "I don't really want to be here" vibe. Which is why it meant something to see him take the stage just ahead of the Cannes premiere of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny on May 18, with tiny glimmers of almost-tears in his eyes. Cannes head Thierry Frémaux had introduced Ford by showing a highlight reel of his long, prismatic career, from American Graffiti to The Mosquito Coast to Blade Runner and beyond. It must be strange to sit there in a tux and watch your various incarnations across decades flash past you on a screen-it's probably true that when you're a movie star, others are more attuned to the natural changes in your face than you are. No wonder Ford, now 80, seemed moved by the tribute. "You know, I love you too," he said to the audience after the applause had waned. "You give my life purpose and meaning, and I'm grateful for that."

Ford is, pretty much, the best thing about James Mangold's Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, the fifth film in the franchise. The first, Steven Spielberg's 1981 Raiders of the Lost Ark, was inspired by adventure serials of the 1930s and '40s-the idea had been conceived by George Lucas and Philip Kaufman, with Spielberg joining later. In 1981, looking back at movies from 50 years earlier felt like gazing through the wrong end of the telescope; that first movie's lo-fi hi fun touches-its fixation on ancient golden gewgaws, slithery snakes, and cartoon bad guys-seemed so mistily far away from what the movies had become by that time. Now, in 2023, when filmmakers have tons of new technology at their disposal, it's easier than ever to make stuff look old-timey. (This new installment is set mostly in 1969, around the time of the lunar landing.)

Are mosquitoes getting more dangerous? - It's not news that mosquitoes carry a number of viruses and parasites that can be harmful to human health, including malaria, dengue, yellow fever, chikungunya, West Nile virus, and eastern equine encephalitis.

Mosquitoes seem to be everywhere this year, and they're not just a nuisance at outdoor gatherings. Health experts say they're carrying some serious diseases—a fact that's hitting home in the U.S., as some towns in Massachusetts have shut down public parks and other outdoor areas in the evenings, after mosquitoes in the region were learned to be carrying eastern equine encephalitis, a rare but deadly virus. And Dr. Anthony Fauci, the country's former top infectious-disease expert, was recently hospitalized with a West Nile virus infection he is believed to have acquired from a mosquito buzzing through his backyard.

Dana White The Ultimate Fighting Championship CEO on manhood, his friendship with Donald Trump, and the future of the fight business

Why do you think Donald Trump asked you, and not a family member, to introduce him at July's Republican National Convention? Listen, he and I are really, really good friends. What I think, and from what his kids have told me, I am the one guy he connects with. They call it \"bro-out\"-we bro-out together.

There can be only one Sally Rooney

A FEW YEARS AGO, SOMEONE POSTED a photo of a man walking through Brooklyn with a copy of Conversations With Friends tucked in the back of his trousers, the words SALLY ROONEY peeking out above his waistband. It was an accessory that telegraphed as much about his personal style as his choice in attire did. Less than a month earlier, the book critic Constance Grady had published an essay titled \"The Cult of Sally Rooney,\" deeming it \"aspirational\" to be a fan: \"If you read Sally Rooney, the thinking seems to go, you're smart, but you're also fun and you're also cool enough to be suspicious of both 'smart' and 'fun' as general concepts.\"

Kate Winslet puts Lee Miller in the frame

KATE WINSLET LOVES TABLES. SHE LOVES THEM SO MUCH that the Oscar-winning actor collects them. There is nothing fancy about these antiques, but they enchant her. \"It's the knots and the whorls, the shape and feel,\" she says. \"They can feel like old friends, and there is something emotionally charging about an old table that comes with a history-I find imagining what that might be enormous fun.\"

The heartache of calling Israel home

I KNEW THAT AS SOON AS WE CAME HOME TO ISRAEL, I'd ask myself why we'd been so eager to get back. I'd disconnected for a few days in New York City with my family, even stopped wearing the hostage necklace I wore every day, and I knew it would be hard to return.
