The new Taylor Swift concert movie held on to the top spot in North American theaters this weekend, but history-based crime epic "Killers of the Flower Moon" had an impressive debut, the best for a Martin Scorsese film since 2010.

Television's glittering Emmys placed politics front and center on Sept. 17, lavishing "The Handmaid's Tale" with awards for its bleak portrait of an authoritarian America.

Awards season is officially back, even though it feels like it just ended. The Emmy awards nominations are in, and this year there was some tough competition.
