Carrie Bradshaw's Life in New York City Apartments (and the Townhouse)
Carrie Bradshaw, the iconic character played by Sarah Jessica Parker, will grace the small screen for the final time on Thursday night in the series finale of 'And Just Like That…', and while it's looking like she may not find her man, she found her dream home. From the 'jewel box' studio on the Upper East Side to the dreamy, even if impractical for a single person, Gramercy townhouse, Carrie's homes are as familiar to most fans as their own. The real estate has always served as more of a scene partner than a backdrop in HBO's 'Sex and the City' franchise. In honor of the final episode of 'And Just Like That…', here is a look back at the apartments that helped form Carrie Bradshaw in two TV shows and two movies. Carrie's Jewel Box In Season 1 of 'And Just Like That…,' which premiered in 2023, Carrie refers to her apartment as her 'jewel box.' This is the same apartment she called home in the first season of 'Sex and the City,' which premiered in 1998. The set for her studio apartment has a living room that frames Carrie's writing window, an alcove that branches into the bedroom, and a closet that connects the bed to the bath. The cozy circular layout, which was created by the set designer, Jeremy Conway, and the decorator, Karin Wiesel Holmes, serves as a respite for Carrie and viewers alike. Want all of The Times?

3 best thriller movies on HBO Max to stream right now
No cheap thrills here — the slow-burning suspense, the high-stakes conflicts, the edge-of-your-seat excitement and the plot twists that constantly keep you guessing richly add to this trio of top-rate thrillers, all of which are available to stream now on HBO Max. HBO's streaming service is loaded with tension-filled mysteries, pulpy crime thrillers and intense psychological dramas, including some of the most critically acclaimed thrillers in movie history, which makes it that much more difficult to choose exactly which one to click "Play" on next. So we've made things easier by narrowing that cinematic pool down to three great choices, from a history-making south Korean stunner, to a culture-shaking detective classic, to what is arguably the most exciting movie of 2025 so far. Here are three thrillers on HBO Max to add to your watch list ASAP. The first non-English-language film to ever claim the Academy Award for Best Picture, Bong Joon Ho's 2019 black comedy "Parasite" finds its chilling thrills in class disparity, as the financially destitute Kim family (played by Song Kang-ho, Jang Hye-jin, Choi Woo-shik and Park So-dam) slowly but surely infiltrates the household of the Kim family, who are the picture of aspirational wealth. Though there are plenty of outrageously funny moments throughout Bong's masterpiece, those satirical laughs are grippingly offset by a nerve-wracking sense of unease and hauntingly tragic elements that stick with you long after the credits roll. On Rotten Tomatoes, "Parasite" holds a near-perfect 99% approval rating, with critical consensus praising: "An urgent, brilliantly layered look at timely social themes, Parasite finds writer-director Bong Joon Ho in near-total command of his craft." Watch "Parasite" on HBO Max now Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. "The Silence of the Lambs" is the rare film to claim the Big Five at the Oscars: that would be Best Picture, Best Director (for Jonathan Demme), Best Adapted Screenplay (for Ted Tally's script), Best Actress (for Jodie Foster, as the distressed but determined F.B.I. cadet Clarice Sterling) and Best Actor (for Anthony Hopkins's instantly iconic performance as cannibalistic killer Hannibal Lecter). And it's easy to see why — Demme's film is a true classic of the thriller genre, pulsing with fear, suspense and vulnerability thanks to those fantastic performances (outside of career-defining turns by Foster and Hopkins, Ted Levine is also exceptionally terrifying as serial killer Buffalo Bill) as well as Tally's taunt screenwriting, which "teeters on the edge between psychological study and all-out horror," per Rotten Tomatoes, where the psychological thriller has a 95% approval rating. Watch "The Silence of the Lambs" on HBO Max now Filmmaker Ryan Coogler and star Michael B. Jordan are used to having films find equal parts commercial and critical success — these are the guys behind the "Black Panther" franchise and the "Creed" films, after all. But the frequent screen collaborators put out arguably their most surprising hit this year with "Sinners," a Southern horror thriller that slow-burned its way to a whopping $364 million worldwide on a reported $90 million budget. In the vampy 2025 title, Jordan has dual roles as criminal twin brothers Smoke and Stack Moore who return to their hometown in the hopes of leaving their troubled lives behind, only to find an even greater evil waiting to welcome them back. Written and directed by Coogler, the spine-tingling tale — which also stars Hailee Steinfeld, Jack O'Connell, Wunmi Mosaku and Omar Benson Miller — was called "a rip-roaring fusion of masterful visual storytelling and toe-tapping music" that reveals the full scope of Coogler's "singular imagination," per Rotten Tomatoes, where the "Sinners" has a 97% approval rating.

Kid Cudi says Cassie was Diddy's 'prisoner', recalls a 'salty' Kanye in new book
Kid Cudi may be the "Man on the Moon," but he's revealing the peaks and valleys of his life on Earth to fans in a new book. The rapper, actor and fashion designer born Scott Mescudi opens up about his early career, substance abuse struggles and redemption in "Cudi: The Memoir" (out now, Simon & Schuster), a raw look at an artist known for moody introspection and vulnerability. In "Cudi," Mescudi delves into his Cleveland upbringing and bopping around New York City in his early career during the blog-era rap scene. The book also features stories about his famous friends in music, film and fashion, including his bond with late Louis Vuitton director Virgil Abloh, falling outs with Shia LaBeouf and Drake, and a turbulent period with Casandra "Cassie" Ventura Fine and Sean "Diddy" Combs. For fans of his music, the memoir includes the inception of some of his biggest songs and projects, including breakout hits "Day 'N' Nite" and "Pursuit of Happiness" and collaborations with Kanye "Ye" West. For admirers of his acting and style, he details his introduction into Hollywood with projects like HBO's "How to Make It In America" and Members of the Rage, his brand that debuted at Paris Fashion Week in 2023. But more than anything, Mescudi's memoir details the darkness that followed him as he became a household name, and how he pulled himself out of depression and addiction, and grew to recognize and appreciate his influence in music as an advocate for mental health. Kid Cudi overdosed during the making of 'Man on the Moon II' Mescudi explores his inner sorrow, which started from a young age following the death of his father. The rapper attempted suicide as a teen, after his first love coldly broke up with him. He recalled swallowing about 12 Tylenol pills and calling his friends, who called the police. He was taken to a hospital and had his stomach pumped, and was moved to the psychiatric wing for several days. Mescudi craved fame and recognition from a young age, but was disappointed when he got it to realize all of his issues were not solved. "There was a lot of anger inside me that came from the Kid Cudi experience not aligning with the vision in my mind," he writes. "I always imagined success as a magic bullet for all my problems." He details the highs and lows of various romantic relationships and drug use as a crutch or to fill a void, but to no relief. He writes he started using cocaine around 2009, after the creation of his debut album "Man on the Moon: The End of Day." By his second album, 2010's "Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager," he was doing multiple lines of cocaine while recording. He says the habit pushed him creatively and numbed the stress that came with overnight fame, but affected his relationships. Following a 2010 arrest, Mescudi quit cocaine use for several years. He went through a two-week relapse in 2016, describing it as a faster means of "relief" and "solace" from the loneliness of fame. The "unsustainable" highs were followed by suicidal ideation, dangerous behavior and a mini-stroke. He would self-enter rehab for cocaine, marijuana and alcohol, saying the experience strengthened his relationship with God and provided "a level of peace ... I hadn't felt ever in my life." Mescudi began smoking again months later, but has been cocaine-free since. Kid Cudi recalls Kanye collaborations, antics at Virgil Abloh's funeral Mescudi recalls meeting Kanye "Ye" West by chance at the Virgin Megastore in New York City's Union Square. He said run-ins with the rapper and his team eventually led to a creative partnership and the Cleveland native being signed to West's G.O.O.D. Music. Some of their most noteworthy collaborations on West's "808s & Heartbreak" and Jay-Z's "Blueprint 3" track "Already Home" came from a weekslong stint in Hawaii, with Mescudi recalling writing the hook for the latter track in 10 minutes. Mescudi called their relationship at the time "polar synchronicity," though he long made it a point to differentiate himself from the "Power" rapper, not wanting to be labeled a "sidekick." For their collaborative 2017 album "Kids See Ghosts," he felt they were on the same page as they were both coming out of dark times and wanted an "uplifting" album, since Mescudi was post-rehab and Ye was going through a public mental health situation. Mescudi recalls this moment as a "test" to see if it would bring people back to his music since he was standing next to West, while maintaining his discography stands on its own. By 2021, their relationship soured, though Mescudi doesn't mention the exact moment it fell apart. When Off-White founder Virgil Abloh died in 2021, Mescudi recalls Ye holding up the funeral to sign autographs. Ye had also fallen out with Abloh, and when he tried to speak during the service, the pastor refused, leaving the rapper "salty" and complaining about it in public rants for years. Kid Cudi gives new details on Cassie and Diddy In May, Mescudi testified in the sex-crimes trial of Sean "Diddy" Combs, recalling the turbulent time in 2011 and 2012 when his relationship with Cassie was followed by a break-in and damage to his car. The rapper calls the situation the "wildest" thing. Mescudi provides new details in the memoir, including when Combs discovered he was in a relationship with Cassie and they fled to Connecticut with Mescudi stationing security outside Cassie's family home while he stayed with her. Following a 2012 explosion in which Mescudi's Porsche was set on fire, he made a police report and followed up, but says it "disappeared" and officers "didn't return my calls." And when the rapper met up with the Bad Boy Records founder, he felt like he "won" after Combs denied involvement. "Man, you can't even be a G and just say, 'Yeah, I did that. Do something.' I would have respected that." Mescudi and Cassie's relationship came at a time when he was still madly in love with an ex-girlfriend, he says, noting a long-term relationship "never felt possible." Still, he was "pissed at Cassie for going back to" Combs. "But over time I realized she was a prisoner," he writes. "I just prayed one day she would be free." Kid Cudi takes the stand in Diddy trial: What he revealed, from car explosion to his dog Mescudi on meeting now-wife Lola Abecassis Sartore Mescudi details the ins and outs of various tumultuous relationships, but none seem to bring him the sense of ease and peace that his wife Lola Abecassis Sartore does. He recalls first seeing her at Abloh's Louis Vuitton fashion show in 2017, where he walked right up to the menswear designer and asked for her number, without even knowing her name. Their relationship started out as a friendship until he began to seriously court her in 2022. He proposed in Kyoto, Japan, that year with a custom 11-carat diamond platinum ring. The couple married earlier this year. Abecassis Sartore came at a time when he was "not needing a relationship as a crutch, but more as a bonus in my life. "The only piece that I was missing was a companion. She was not only the perfect companion, but she was peace in my life that I just hadn't felt with a woman before," he writes. "I love every little quirk about her. She inspires me; she lifts me; she supports me in every single endeavor I have … She's a master in her craft, so it's like I found my equal in creativity too." Kid Cudi ties the knot with Lola Abecassis Sartore during wedding in South of France Kid Cudi on his influence: 'My music will always help people' Known for his gloomy, cross-genre hits, Mescudi's pioneering legacy as one of the most vulnerable artists in hip-hop has been solidified. One of his biggest tracks, "Pursuit of Happiness," was initially meant as a warning against finding satisfaction in drugs and alcohol, but he later embraced the joy it brought people. He approached later projects like "Speedin' Bullet 2 Heaven" and "Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin'" with the same desire to be a guide to younger fans. "Kids needed to hear someone authentically and openly dealing with their most toxic baggage," he writes. Reflecting on his impact after nearly two decades in music, Mescudi says his music "opened the door for generations of nonconforming artists .... I was touching people, and my music will always help people to the end of time." Reflecting on his 40th birthday, a "milestone that felt so very far out of reach," Mescudi considers his impact. "It wasn't the fame that brought me to my nirvana; it was all the wonderful, sincere people who my music led into my life," he said. "And all my time searching for life in outer space, I never thought I'd find peace and love on Earth."
