    THE SPOTS

    Three :30s promote the NFL Sunday Ticket subscription service available via DirecTV. In "Early Bird/Manning," Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning sits in a locker room with a curious fan, who questions a play in which Manning may have called an audible. The last laugh is on the man though, as Manning corrects him by using football terms that he wouldn’t understand. He ends by admitting that it may, in fact, have been an audible. "Early Bird/McNabb" shows Donovan McNabb, the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback, having lunch with a young boy. Even though the youngster moved away from Philly, he is still able to see the Eagles games, thanks to the DirecTV service, which pleases McNabb. And "Regular/Faulk" features Marshall Faulk sitting on bleachers with an avid female fan. She tells the St. Louis Rams running back that he is a triple threat and that together, they are going to go far in the upcoming fantasy football season.

    Spots broke in June.

    Daniel Craig Embraced Openness For Role In Director Luca Guadagnino’s “Queer”

    Tuesday, November 26, 2024

    Daniel Craig is sitting in the restaurant of the Carlyle Hotel talking about how easy it can be to close yourself off to new experiences.

    "We get older and maybe out of fear, we want to control the way we are in our lives. And I think it's sort of the enemy of art," Craig says. "You have to push against it. Whether you have success or not is irrelevant, but you have to try to push against it."

    Craig, relaxed and unshaven, has the look of someone who has freed himself of a too snug tuxedo. Part of the abiding tension of his tenure as James Bond was this evident wrestling with the constraints that came along with it. Any such strains, though, would seem now to be completely out the window.

    Since exiting that role, Craig, 56, has seemed eager to push himself in new directions. He performed "Macbeth" on Broadway. His drawling detective Benoit Blanc ("Halle Berry!") stole the show in "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery." And now, Craig gives arguably his most transformative performance as the William S. Burroughs avatar Lee in Luca Guadagnino's tender tale of love and longing in postwar Mexico City, "Queer."

    Since the movie's Venice Film Festival premiere, it's been one of the fall's most talked about performances — for its explicit sex scenes, for its vulnerability and for its extremely un-007-ness.

    "The role, they say, must have been a challenge or 'You're so brave to do this,'" Craig said in a recent interview alongside Guadagnino. "I kind of go, 'Eh, not really.' It's why I get up in the morning."

    In "Queer," which A24 releases Wednesday in theaters, Craig again plays a well-traveled, sharply dressed, cocktail-drinking man. But the similarities with his most famous role stop there. Lee is an American expat living in 1950s... Read More
