Cringe! Why millennials became so uncool
Millennials are used to criticism from older generations. Scolded for frittering their money on flat whites and short-haul flights. Seen as self-absorbed for their obsession with Instagram. But now they are facing criticism from a new corner – Gen Z. But what is behind this intergenerational mocking? Lucy Hough asks the journalist Chloë Hamilton whether it is simply the length of millennials' socks and their use of emojis that generation Z find ridiculous – or could it be a clash born out of the difficult set of circumstances that have shaped the two generations? Lucy and Chloë speak to the comedian Will Owen and the writer Emma Loffhagen to find out.

First trailer released for Daniel Day-Lewis's comeback film, Anemone
The first trailer for forthcoming drama Anemone has been released, offering a glimpse of Daniel Day-Lewis's screen comeback after eight years. The triple Oscar-winner retired from acting in 2017 after completing Paul Thomas Anderson's Phantom Thread which, he said, left him 'overwhelmed by a sense of sadness' during filming. 'Daniel Day-Lewis will no longer be working as an actor,' read a statement at the time. 'He is immensely grateful to all of his collaborators and audiences over the many years.' He had previously stepped back from the profession in 1997, after shooting The Boxer, when he took up a new career as a shoemaker in Italy. He then returned to make Gangs of New York with Martin Scorsese in 2002. Anemone is the debut feature of Day-Lewis's son, Ronan, 27, who has previously worked primarily as a painter and made two short films, in 2016 and 2017. The two men co-wrote the script, which distributors describe as exploring 'the complex and profound ties that exist between brothers, fathers, and sons'. The film has been produced by Brad Pitt's Plan B outfit, and will premiere at the New York film festival in October. Widely perceived to be one of the finest actors of all time, Day-Lewis won Oscars for his roles in My Left Foot, Lincoln and There Will Be Blood. Other films include The Age of Innocence, My Beautiful Laundrette and The Last of the Mohicans. In 2005, Day-Lewis starred in The Ballad of Jack and Rose, directed by his wife (and Ronan's mother), Rebecca Miller. Anemone is set in Yorkshire in the late 1980s and concerns the fate of two brothers who served as British paramilitaries in Northern Ireland 20 years before.

Stick that knife in and see if I bleed
From The Times, August 21, 1925Last night at the Théâtre des Champs Elysées, before what is left of social and scientific Paris, together with a large contingent of the general public, the Egyptian Fakir Tahra Bey gave a demonstration of his powers, subject to every test which a panel of doctors and a crowd of 100 or so of the public on stage could suggest. The fakir, looking, with his sad and really beautiful face, his fine silky beard and flowing white burnous, exactly like an illustration to a children's Bible, announced that he had come, not to work miracles, but to ask the opinion of the scientific West upon physical peculiarities which he could induce, but not explain. This modest warning was fully necessary and imperfectly appreciated, as subsequent events proved. Having thrown himself into a cataleptic trance and suffered a stone weighing 200lb to be shattered on his body by blows from a hammer, the fakir emerged therefrom with a shudder and announced that he was quite insensible to pain. Five doctors thereupon transfixed various parts of his body with knives and needles. Four of them announced themselves perfectly satisfied; but the fifth, Dr Barré, of Strasbourg, declared that he had detected evidence of pain and a change in the pulse during the operation. As the fakir was moving about and talking quite happily with an armoury of grisly instruments still in him it did not seem to matter. The fakir asked that the weapons should be removed from his person and promised that the wounds should bleed or not at will. None of them bled at all, and in a few moments there was no trace even of a scar. The final test was that of remaining buried alive for 12 minutes. The fakir again threw himself into a cataleptic trance and was tested by the doctors, who found no trace of breathing or blood circulation. He was then put in a coffin, his nose and mouth were stuffed with cotton-wool, the remaining space filled with sand and the lid closed. The coffin was then buried in a heap of sand. When it was opened the fakir was discovered ghastly pale, but otherwise none the worse. There can be no doubt that last night's Parisian audience were convinced that they were in the presence of a very remarkable man.
