Carrie Coon is back in a corset again for the eight-episode second season of The Gilded Age (Oct. 29 on HBO and Max), and while her character, Bertha Russell, has wedged open the door of 1883 Manhattan society, her bid for a box at the Academy of Music has been turned down. So, what’s a social climber to do? She schemes to make the up-and-coming Metropolitan Opera the hot, new tantalizing ticket in town. Following are some facts you may not know about the Ohio-born, Emmy-nominated actress, 42, who also starred in Ghostbusters: Afterlife (and the upcoming sequel), Fargo, Gone Girl, The Sinner and The Leftovers. She was raised on Ohio farmland owned by her family since the 1800s and was class president and the captain of her sports teams…

Available in bookstores and online I MUST BE DREAMING By Roz Chast Bloomsbury (Oct. 24)t 4 $28, amazon.com “What I love most about dreams is how every night, without conscious eģort on my part, these oģ-the-wall movies unspool and I have no idea why or how,” says Roz Chast, the famed New Yorker cartoonist and bestselling author. In her new fully illustrated graphic book, I Must Be Dreaming, she turns her talents to exploring, recounting and illustrating dreams of all kinds (back-in-high-school dreams, married-to-Danny DeVito dreams, naked dreams, disaster dreams, talking mango dreams!) and trying to untangle one of our most enduring human mysteries. The trip through the surreal nighttime world inside her head is equal parts thought-provoking and laugh-out-loud hilarious. You may just want to keep a pad of…

Dear Marilyn, My husband and I just bought our first house. When daylight saving time stops (or starts), how should we adjust the clocks on our outdoor timers? —Olivia Wright, Oak Park, Ill. Once you’ve set your timers, you don’t need to change them for switches between standard time (ST) and daylight saving time (DST). Suppose you’ve set your timers to turn lights on at sunset (say 7 p.m.) and off at dawn (say 6 a.m.). Then DST stops, and ST resumes. So on that day, the sun sets at 6 p.m. But to your unchanged timers, it’s still 7 p.m., so the lights go on, which is what you intended. The same thing happens the next morning. It gets light at 5 a.m., but to your timers, it’s still…

PersonalityWALTER SCOTT ASKS... Following an eight-year hiatus, the When Harry Met Sally and Sleepless in Seattle star, 61, is back on the screen in the romantic comedy What Happens Later (in theaters Nov. 3), which she also directed. Based on Steven Dietz’s play, Shooting Star, two ex-lovers, Bill (David Duchovny) and Willa (Ryan) get snowed in at a regional airport overnight, where they discover that they are just as attracted to and annoyed by one another as they were decades earlier. As the night progresses, they begin to wonder if their reunion is coincidence or magical. You took a break from acting. Why come back now? Well, really it had to do with the fact that the script came to me during COVID, during lock-down. It struck my imagination probably…

ALL THE LIGHT WE CANNOT SEE (NOV. 2, NETFLIX) Based on Anthony Doerr’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, this four-part limited series is about the life of a blind French girl, Marie-Laure (Aria Mia Loberti) and her father, Daniel LeBlanc (Mark Ruffalo), a curator at the Museum of Natural History in Paris. The duo flee German-occupied Paris for the small town of Saint-Malo with a legendary diamond to keep it from falling into the hands of the Nazis. To prepare for the role, Ruffalo, 55, studied France in the World-War-II era. “I knew a lot about World War II already, so for me, getting acquainted with gemology was a big thing,” he says. “We found a museum outside of Budapest where the curator let me handle some semi-precious stones and dinosaur bones.…

PRISCILLA ON PARADE Elvis wasn’t the only Presley on the cover of Parade magazine. In the July 7, 1974, issue, Parade asked, “What did Priscilla Beaulieu Presley do with her divorce settlement from Elvis?” The answer: She started a West Hollywood boutique called Bis & Beau with designer Olivia Bis. “Pris,” Parade said, “is her own best model.” In our cover photo, the magazine noted, the rhinestone-studded blue jeans she is wearing were available at Bis & Beau for $295 (quite a chunk of change in 1974). The store closed in 1976. Nearly 23 years later, on Feb. 9, 1997, Presley was back on Parade’s cover, this time revealing why she opened Graceland to the public, details of her post-Elvis life and why she left: “My husband was on the…
