Wes Anderson has designed a bar, Wired reports:

Watch Peter O’Toole discuss the craft of acting in a rare interview from 1965:
The owner of an arthouse theater in Massachusetts is holding a contest to give it away, along with $20,000:

I designed it to be a resource for the residents of Boston’s North Shore to not only have a comfortable and welcoming place in which to appreciate great films, but also as a means by which to offer access to filmmakers and their process. In the 7 years during which we as a community have built the place up to become the premiere arthouse cinema on the North Shore, we have shown over 1,500 films, hosted hundreds of filmmakers, launched a thoroughly modern performance stage, and given over 100,000 guests a filmgoing experience that serves as a high standard by which all other nights out at the movies are now judged.
