Selma Films don’t get more powerful than this effort from director Ava DuVernay. Her civil rights drama closes in on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (a magnificent David Oyelowo) as he leads a march from Alabama’s Selma to the state capital in 1965 to peacefully protest voting inequalities. In a bold and refreshing move, the iconic reverend is portrayed as both a dignified hero who can sway a room with an eloquent speech and a philandering husband who takes out the garbage. Needless to say, his message has never been more relevant. (Amazon and iTunes, $15–$20) Girls Season 4 Oh, girl! In this round, NYC’s bright but self-absorbed Hannah (Lena Dunham) sees her writing skewered, gets dumped by reformed lout Adam (Adam Driver) and tries to process when her dad…

After 39 years in the public eye, and a lifetime of private struggle, Bruce Jenner knew it was time to reveal his true self to his fans and to the world.

Over three weeks in February, he and Sawyer filmed in New York City, his adopted home of Malibu and his childhood neighborhood in Tarrytown, New York. “He chose Diane because he knew she would work with him to present his journey tastefully,” says a source close to the Jenner family. “He felt safe and in control.” Safe enough, in fact, to reveal to the world that he is transgender. The April 24 two-hour special edition of…

BOBBI KRISTINA A Family’s New Hope The Browns look for signs of a medical miracle Bobby Brown is not giving up. After he told the crowd at an April 18 Dallas concert that his daughter Bobbi Kristina was “awake” and “watching [him],” the Brown family issued a statement to confirm her “improvement.” She “opened her eyes and started a rehabilitation that will be long and hard,” Bobby’s wife, Alicia, said of the 22-year-old, who was found facedown in her bathtub January 31.

TWO STEPS BACK Kim Richards was on a mission to clear her name. During The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ season 5 reunion, the recovering alcoholic stressed that her decision to take a prescription pill to treat bronchitis and pneumonia was simply one bad choice. “I am not struggling with my sobriety, nor have I struggled,” the three-time rehab vet said on the Bravo show April 14. “I have been sober for three years.” Clearly she’s struggling now. In the early-morning hours of April 16 — two months after the reunion taped — the 50-year-old was arrested at the Beverly Hills Hotel and charged with public intoxication, trespassing and resisting arrest. Richards “had too much to drink and was disturbing some of the other patrons,” a Beverly Hills Police Department…
