Loeffler described the walkout as “shameful” on Twitter Saturday afternoon. “This isn’t unifying Americans. It’s a political stunt that disrespects every man, woman & child who has given their life for this country,” wrote the senator, who is running for reelection in Georgia this November. As a co-owner of the WNBA’s Atlanta Dream, Loeffler clashed with the athletic organization over its recently announced social justice initiative. “The WNBA has fully embraced the BLM political movement & turned its back on the American flag,” Loeffler’s tweet continued....

Actually, it’s hard to know what to make of this glossy romantic triangle, or to work up much concern about its selfish and opportunistic hero. In transposing Claude Sautet’s 1970 French movie “The Things of Life”–a film about the banality and allure of bourgeois comforts–into Hollywoodese, director Rydell and screenwriters David Rayfiel and Marshall Brickman seem uncertain of their own point of view. Are we meant to find Vincent as irresistible as the women do, or to criticize his waffling?...
