Employees at Slovenia’s state intelligence agency have gone on strike, demanding higher wages and better working conditions.

This cuddling is OK at work THE DISTRICT

Rescued eagle dies of lead poisoning

ANDRE CHUNG (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

REGION Chris Delaney typically unwinds from his job at Discovery Communications by flipping through stacks of vinyl at used record stores. But on a recent afternoon, the broadcast ingest operator was releasing his stress — right there at work — by stroking a bearded dragon lizard named Norbert. “He’s very mellow,” Delaney says. “Applying a warm hand puts this guy in a good mood.” In these anxious times, the embattled masses are resorting to all manner of succor. We meditate in the morning and drink a stiff one after work. Yell at traffic on the way to laughter yoga. Binge on Netflix all night and down coffee in the morning. Now, with the rise of office animal parties, you can stroke a bunny, cradle a puppy or massage a bearded dragon lizard, like Delaney did when his company hosted Squeals on Wheels, a traveling petting zoo based in Potomac, Md. “Animals make the environment less stress-y,” says Alan

D.C. street renaming might rankle Russia

THE DISTRICT

Georgetown U. won’t back grad student union

Council looks to name road near embassy after slain Putin critic THE DISTRICT Dissidents opposing Russian President Vladimir Putin urged the D.C. Council on Wednesday to rename the street in front of the Russian Embassy to honor a prominent opposition leader assassinated in Moscow. They said the symbolic renaming of the street for Boris Nemtsov, who was slain in 2015, would send a strong signal to the world that the United States stands for democracy and freedom. “The current Russian political regime wants to eradicate the memory of my father since it believes — correctly — that symbols are important and can potentially facilitate and inspire change,” said Nemtsov’s daughter, Zhanna Nemtsova, who flew from Germany to testify before the D.C. Council. The legislation, introduced in October, would designate Wisconsin Avenue, between Edmonds and Davis streets, as “Boris Nemtsov Plaza.” The name would appear beneath the existing Wisconsin Avenue street sign and addresses on that block would not change. The Russian Embassy does not have a say in whether the street name is changed. C ou nci l C h a i r m a n Ph i l

MARYLAND

Opposition leader Boris Nemtsov was gunned down in 2015 in Moscow.

Mendelson, D, who co-sponsored the bill, said he expects the council to approve the legislation early next year. But if approved, it could trigger concerns in the White House and on Capitol Hill, which both have the power to quash local D.C. laws. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., originally co-sponsored Senate legislation to rename the street in February, with bipartisan support from eight other senators, including Sens. Christopher A. Coons, D-Del., and John McCain, R-Ariz. The legislation was blocked and, according to Mary M. Cheh, DWard 3, both Rubio and Coons met with city leaders about passing the bill in the D.C. Council. Cheh said she believes in the symbolism of the legislation and thinks local laws should pass through local chambers, not

Congress. She said the timing of the legislation is unrelated to current American politics surrounding Russia or the 2016 election. “We are the nation’s capital and we celebrate the principles of democratic governance,” she said. Nemtsov was gunned down in February 2015 while walking across a heavily guarded bridge in front of the Kremlin. Five people were convicted of being paid to murder Nemtsov, although the person who paid them was never identified. The Senate and D.C. Council have used street names in the past as a way to rebuke the government of a nearby embassy. In 1984, the Senate renamed the street in front of the previous Russian Embassy after Russian dissident Andrei Sakharov. PERRY STEIN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Jealous floats single-payer health plan Democratic gubernatorial candidate Ben Jealous wants to establish singlepayer health care in Maryland, a plan that would make government pay residents’ medical care and get rid of the out-of-pocket expenses that residents pay. In a 19-page proposal, Jealous said a state-run, single-payer system would be the next logical step for a state like Maryland, which has an all-payer system, but he offered no specific details on how the government would cover the cost. A similar plan was debated, but later shelved, in California this year. “We’re in a better position than any other state; we’re more than halfway there,” Jealous said noting the allpayer system and hospital waiver that are currently in place in Maryland. “We believe it’s attainable.” (TWP)

VIRGINIA Democrats seeking to take control of Virginia’s House of Delegates have asked a federal judge to order a new election to rectify a delegate’s race tainted by mixups over district lines. Republican Robert Thomas beat Democrat Joshua Cole by 82 votes on Nov. 7, in a contest to fill the seat being vacated by retiring Speaker William J. Howell, R-Stafford. But the outcome, which could affect which party leads the chamber, is in dispute because of errors that led 147 voters to cast ballots in the wrong race. Democrats on Wednesday filed an amended complaint, updating a lawsuit filed Nov. 21 in U.S. District Court in Alexandria. The original suit, filed on behalf of three voters denied the chance to vote in the proper race, sought a temporary restraining order to stop Virginia’s Board of Elections from certifying the results of 28th District House race. U.S. Judge T.S. Ellis III denied that request but did not dismiss the suit, allowing for Wednesday’s filing. The elections board certified the results last week. Members

said they were required by state law to certify the results despite irregularities and were powerless to require any available remedies, such as ordering a new election. They also said that certification was necessary before other challenges, such as a recount, could commence. The amended complaint asks the judge to order the state to decertify the election and to block Thomas from being seated as a delegate when the General Assembly convenes in January. It also asks the judge to issue an order “providing for a new election.” Before the election, Republicans enjoyed a 66-to-34 majority in the House. Now the count is 49 Democrats and 51 Republicans.

Striking a defiant tone, Franken says he’ll resign

3.6 MILLION YEARS OLD

Full skeleton of old ancestor is unveiled

Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., announced Thursday that he will resign amid multiple allegations that he touched women inappropriately.

around the country as women come forward to accuse powerful men of misconduct. Members of Congress have spent the past month grappling with how best to respond to allegations of harassment against colleagues and criticism of the way workplace complaints are handled. On the Senate floor, Franken called the reckoning an “important moment” that is “long overdue,” but he denied the allegations against him. “I know there’s been a very different pictures of me painted over the last few weeks, but I know who I really am,” he said. “I know in my heart that nothing I have done as a senator … has brought dishonor on this institution.” He is expected to make his

resignation effective at the end of the month. This timetable could allow him to cast several consequential votes on the Republican tax bill, funding the government and the fate of immigrants brought to the country illegally as children. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., said Franken made “the right decision” and praised him as a friend who worked “for years on behalf of the people of Minnesota.” Once Franken makes his resignation official, Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton, D, will pick a replacement to serve until a November 2018 special election. Whoever wins the special election would have to run again in 2020.

Researchers in South Africa have unveiled what they call “by far the most complete skeleton of a human ancestor older than 1.5 million years ever found.” The University of the Witwatersrand displayed the virtually complete Australopithecus fossil on Wednesday. The skeleton dates back 3.6 million years. Its discovery is expected to help researchers better understand the human ancestor’s appearance and movement. The researchers say it has taken 20 years to excavate, clean, reconstruct and analyze the fragile skeleton, dubbed Little Foot. (AP)

IMPACT OF A GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN

The amount per week it would cost the economy if the federal government shuts down this month, according to a report by S&P Global analysts. Congress passed a stopgap spending bill Thursday to extend funding until Dec. 22. A shutdown could weaken consumer spending before Christmas and dampen a strong run of growth for the U.S. economy. The 16-day shutdown in 2013 caused 120,000 fewer private sector jobs to be created, according to the Council of Economic Advisers.

Congress averts shutdown with a stopgap bill

THEMBA HADEBE (AP)

POLITICS In a stunning close to his congressional career, Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., on Thursday announced that he will resign amid multiple allegations that he touched women inappropriately, becoming the second lawmaker to step aside over such accusations in three days. Yielding to pressure from other Democrats, Franken said he will leave Capitol Hill in the “coming weeks,” but he continued to deny allegations of groping and unwanted advances from more than a half-dozen women. Franken used his resignation speech to take aim at President Trump and Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore, who have not been forced aside despite facing arguably more serious allegations of sexual misconduct. “There is some irony in the fact that I am leaving while a man who has bragged on tape about his history of sexual assault sits in the Oval Office, and a man who has repeatedly preyed on young girls campaigns for the Senate with the full support of his party,” Franken said on the Senate floor. The resignation of not one but two prominent Democratic lawmakers over allegations of inappropriate behavior points to the wider reckoning taking place

Senator takes shots at Trump, Moore, who also face accusations

POLITICS Congress on Thursday evening passed a stopgap spending bill to prevent a government shutdown this weekend and buy time for challenging talks on a wide range of unfinished business on Capitol Hill. The measure passed mostly along party lines in the House, 235-193, and would keep the government running through Dec. 22. The Senate approved the measure 81-14 later Thursday. The bill now heads to President Trump for his expected signature. The votes came as Trump and top congressional leaders in both parties huddled to discuss a range of unfinished business, including the budget, a key children’s health program and aid to hurricane-slammed Puerto Rico, Texas and Florida — and, for Democrats and many Republicans, protections for immigrants brought to the country illegally as children. “We are here to make progress. We have some important issues that we share with you,” House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi told Trump during a meeting at the White House, ticking off issues including the opioid crisis, funding for veterans and the expired Children’s Health Insurance Program. “All things that have bipartisan support in the Congress.” Trump relied, “That’s very true.” ANDREW TAYLOR AND ALAN FRAM (AP)

Australian Parliament allows same-sex marriages

Three die in a shooting at New Mexico high school

Ex-president Fernandez charged with treason

Australia’s Parliament voted Thursday to allow same-sex marriage across the nation, following a bitter debate settled by a much-criticized government survey of voters that strongly endorsed change. The public gallery in the House of Representatives erupted with applause when the bill passed. It changes the definition of marriage from solely between a man and a woman to “a union of two people” excluding all others. The Senate passed the same legislation last week. The government later announced that same-sex couples will be able to apply to marry starting Saturday. (AP)

A shooting at a high school in a small New Mexico town left two students and the suspect dead, authorities said Thursday. State police did not release any details about the shooter but confirmed the other two people who were killed attended Aztec High School. No other injuries were reported, officials said. The school of about 900 students was cordoned off as authorities cleared the buildings and teens were taken to another location. State and federal authorities are investigating what led to the shooting and did not immediately release any details about the circumstances. (AP)

A federal judge on Thursday indicted former Argentine president Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner on treason charges, asking for her arrest on charges that she covered up Iran’s possible involvement in the 1994 bombing of a Jewish community center in Buenos Aires. Judge Claudio Bonadio accused Fernandez of obfuscating the Iranian role in the attack, which killed 85 people, in exchange for a lucrative trade deal. The court requested the lifting of her immunity from prosecution, a protection she enjoys as a senator. Authorities conducted raids linked to the case Thursday, arresting three of her former aides and associates. (AP)

Fear spreads with fires Fire chief in California says he’s never seen blazes with ‘this much speed and range’

Firefighters monitor a section of the Thomas Fire along U.S. Route 101 on Thursday.

A firefighter battles a wildfire at a beach in Ventura, Calif, on Thursday.

the state’s biggest active blaze, burned across 150 square miles in Ventura County on Thursday. Flames from that fire surrounded Ojai, a popular winter retreat that is home to about 8,000 people, on Thursday morning, officials said. Most of the Ojai Valley had been placed under a mandatory evacuation order. More than 100 firetrucks from several states had parked at the Ventura County Fairgrounds, firefighters standing or sitting

alongside their equipment as they took breaks from battling fires in Ojai the night before. “This breeze is nothing,” said Shane Nollsch, who had traveled from Lyon County, Nev., arriving at 3 a.m. Wednesday. “Yesterday, you had to chew the air before you breathed it.” Fred Burris, a Ventura County Fire Department battalion chief, was finishing a 24-hour shift that included protecting the tiny town of La Conchita.

“Everyone says, ‘Yeah, this is the worst,’ but it really is the high-water mark for me,” he said. “We’ve never seen a fire with this much speed and range.” The Thomas Fire extended dozens of miles from near Santa Paula in Ventura County to the edge of Carpinteria, a city of 13,000 people, a stiffening wind posing the largest threat. Santa Barbara County began urging evacuations, ordering hundreds of people to leave areas along the Pacific Ocean between the larger cities of Santa Barbara and Ventura. In Los Angeles County, firefighters responded to threats on multiple fronts. The Rye and Creek fires continued burning through a combined 29 square miles north of Los Angeles, while the Skirball Fire’s smaller reach forced evacuations in ritzy Bel- Air and caused the University of California at Los Angeles to cancel classes Thursday, just two days before final exams.

Under scrutiny, Wray defends FBI’s integrity

JAE C. HONG (AP)

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA Fire continued to tear across Southern California on Thursday, surrounding communities and shrouding much of the region in searing flame and thick, choking smoke. And where there was no fire, there was fear. Fear of what could come next as wildfires ravaged the region for a fourth day. Fear of what could happen if the winds shifted, if the flames moved, if new blazes erupted and were strengthened by the powerful gusts already fueling the infernos across the region. Tens of thousands of people fled their homes, running from fires without any idea of when they could return or what they might find when they do. Veteran firefighters described the blazes as unlike anything they had ever encountered. Authorities had not reported any deaths due to the blazes by Thursday, but they spoke bluntly about the danger that remained. While the most severe winds are forecast to slacken Friday and Saturday, lessening the fire danger, the National Weather Service cautioned that the risk of fires will remain elevated through Sunday as conditions remain abnormally dry and breezy. “We are a long way from being out of this weather event,” Ken Pimlott, director of Cal Fire, said Thursday. “In some cases, the worst could be yet to come in terms of the wind.” The National Weather Service warned that if new fires do begin, “very rapid spread and extreme fire behavior is likely.” Blazes began Thursday across Southern California, including one in San Diego County, where the Lilac Fire grew to 1,000 acres in just a few hours. The massive Thomas Fire,

NATIONAL SECURITY FBI Director Christopher Wray defended his agency’s integrity and independence in response to skeptical questioning Thursday from Republicans who repeatedly suggested its personnel are biased against President Trump. Wray was grilled at a hearing of the House Judiciary Committee about how FBI personnel — particularly a senior counterintelligence agent now the subject of an internal ethics investigation — handled sensitive probes of Trump and his former political rival, Hillary Clinton. The agent, Peter Strzok, was removed in July from the investigation being run by special counsel Robert Mueller after supervisors learned he exchanged pro-Clinton, anti-Trump texts with a senior FBI lawyer with whom he had an affair, according to people familiar with the matter. The revelations about Strzok prompted Trump to tweet this past weekend that the FBI’s reputation was in “tatters.” The panel’s senior Democrat, Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., asked Wray whether that was true. “What I can tell you is that the FBI I see is tens of thousands of agents, analysts and staff working their tails off keeping Americans safe,” Wray said. “The FBI that I see is people, decent people, committed to the highest principles of dignity and professionalism and respect.” DEVLIN BARRETT AND ELLEN NAKASHIMA (TWP)

Palestinians clash with Israeli troops Hundreds in West Bank, Gaza protest Trump’s Jerusalem decision MIDDLE EAST Hundreds of Palestinian protesters clashed with Israeli soldiers Thursday in Jerusalem, Ramallah and other places in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, burning posters of President Trump and U.S. flags a day after Trump sided with Israel by announcing U.S. recognition of Jerusalem as its capital. Israeli police said three protesters were arrested in Jerusalem. The Palestinian Red Crescent reported that more than 100 people were hurt. The big test, however, comes Friday when Palestinians gather for weekly mass prayers. The Palestinian Authority called for a strike in its cities. In Gaza, the Islamist Hamas movement urged its followers to ignite an intifada, or uprising, against Israel. Shops in Jerusalem’s Old City were shuttered. The Israeli military reported that at least three projectiles were fired Thursday at its territory from Gaza but that both fell short, causing no damage. In response, Israeli jets and tanks struck two Hamas military sites in Gaza, the Israeli army said, saying it holds Hamas responsible.

A Palestinian protester burns tires Thursday during clashes in the West Bank city of Ramallah.

On the edge of the Palestinian city of Ramallah, Israeli forces fired dozens of rounds of tear gas and stun grenades at hundreds of Palestinian protesters. “This will be bad,” said an ambulance driver in Ramallah as young men burned tires and pelted the soldiers with stones. “Donald Trump said Jerusalem is for Israel, and I tell him, ‘No way, go to hell,’” said one 43-year-old woman in the crowd. In Bethlehem, tear gas filled streets strung with Christmas lights. At a checkpoint between Jerusalem and Ramallah, soldiers fired sponge bullets at children throwing stones.

NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. A white former South Carolina officer was sentenced to 20 years in prison on Thursday for fatally shooting an unarmed black motorist in the back in 2015, wrapping up a case that became a rallying cry for the Black Lives Matter movement. Attorneys for ex-North Charleston Officer Michael Slager said he shot 50-year-old Walter Scott in self-defense after the two fought and Scott grabbed Slager’s stun gun. They said race didn’t play a role in the shooting and Slager never had any “racial animus” toward minorities. Still, Slager pleaded guilty in federal court to violating Scott’s civil rights. As part of the plea agreement reached in May, prosecutors dropped state murder charges. A year ago, a state judge declared a mistrial when jurors deadlocked in that case. “This is a tragedy that shouldn’t have happened,” U.S. District Judge David Norton said. A bystander recorded the shooting on a cellphone, and it was shared around the world, setting off protests across the U.S. as demonstrators said it was another egregious example of police officers mistreating African-Americans. Slager fired at Scott’s back from 17 feet away. Five of eight bullets hit him. Convictions in police officer shootings are uncommon in the U.S. and prison time is even rarer. MEG KINNARD (AP)

A report this week claimed that Kirk Cousins is “not well liked” by unnamed Redskins receivers.

3 THINGS TO WATCH

Something to fight for

DAN STEINBERG | THE WASHINGTON POST

Season for dirt: Irrelevance leads to faceless critics Meaningful games in December can sometimes, for a little bit, put off the sort of stories the Redskins specialize in. When the games stop mattering, non-helpful headlines sprout like nasty weeds, and Ashburn boasts some of the league’s most fertile soil. I was thinking that earlier this week when I listened to Dan Patrick’s radio show. “You know, I did a little research about the whole Kirk Cousins situation, and what Marshall Faulk and Steve Smith Sr. were saying about Kirk Cousins,” Patrick said, referencing a truly odd postgame Cousins rip-fest on NFL Network. “Kirk Cousins is not well

liked by his wide receivers,” Patrick went on, seeming to call his subject by Kurt. “Not at all. So the behind-the-scenes intel is they’re not big Kirk Cousins fans.” Earlier this week, Cousins was specifically asked about his relationship with his receivers on 106.7 The Fan. “You play with guys at times who want to blame everybody but themselves, and they never want to take ownership, and that’s where a season can get really long, and it’s just not enjoyable to play. But you look at Ryan Grant, Josh Doctson, Maurice Harris, Brian Quick, Jamison Crowder: These are classy guys,” Cousins said. “When they face adversity, they just keep going. And they’re fun to play with.” Three days later, Patrick is

gonna say he has “intel” that makes him think those same players are trashing their QB? Weirdness such as this has cropped up during idle Decembers in Ashburn, and the Redskins aren’t always proficient at sweeping it away. Donovan McNabb’s public feud with Washington’s leadership happened in December. So did those reports about whether Mike Shanahan had cleared out his office, and whether he was feuding with the father of Robert Griffin III. So did London Fletcher slamming assistant coach Jim Haslett. And this all made me think of the recent NFL Network piece suggesting that the team was using the end of this season as an audition for Cousins. Two entire seasons as one of the league’s most productive passers haven’t been decisive one way or the other, but a few

When the games stop mattering, non-helpful headlines sprout like nasty weeds.

meaningless late-season games played with a pieced-together roster apparently will be. It’s been popular to say of Cousins in recent years that he bet on himself. It takes two parties to make a bet, though. So the implication is that the front office is servicing his bet. The NFL Network piece reinforced that implication. Which in turn would suggest that Cousins struggling down the stretch would somehow … help the Redskins? Maybe the team thinks that would lower his price? Or maybe a poor final record would make it easier to sell a clean break to fans? If the team doesn’t believe it’s still engaged in such a wager with Cousins, why not come out publicly after the NFL Network piece and say: “This is ridiculous and untrue; Kirk doesn’t need to prove anything else to us.” Maybe that wouldn’t help. But it couldn’t hurt. Four weeks is plenty long enough for more bad headlines to sprout. And that’s a dangerous situation for a team that should crave peace and quiet.

Playoff hopes are dim for the 5-7 Redskins, but they can still play spoiler Sunday at the Chargers (4:05 p.m., CBS). Los Angeles is one of three 6-6 teams vying to win the AFC West. GABE HIATT (EXPRESS)

2 Nose for the end zone Second-year Redskins wideout Josh Doctson has just 24 catches, but he has five TDs, including one in back-to-back games. Can he make it three in a row?

job. … I coach great kids. I love living in Annapolis. The grass isn’t always greener.” His predecessor, Paul Johnson, left for Georgia Tech. Niumatalolo had an interview with BYU in 2015, but ultimately decided to stay put. With another win over Army on Saturday in Philadelphia, he would earn his sixth Commander-In-Chief’s Trophy, presented annually to the winner of the football competition between the three major service academies. Last season, Army snapped a 14-year Navy win streak in the series. At 8-3 with wins over Temple and Duke this year, Army may be a tough matchup for Navy (6-5).

Niumatalolo, 52, is 83-47 at Navy. No one has ever won more games for the Midshipmen. It’s safe to say the coach will have the opportunity to add to that total as long as he cares to stick around. If athletic director Chet Gladchuk has his way, Niumatalolo and Navy will remain the class of the service academies for years to come. “I told Kenny that if he finishes his career at the United States Naval Academy, he will be a Hall of Fame coach,” Gladchuk said. “If he were to subject himself to what I call the meat grinder, he would just be another coach in the mix. He really stands out here.” DAVID GINSBURG (AP)

COLLEGE FOOTBALL Ken Niumatalolo has made Navy the football king of service academies. Niumatalolo is the first coach in the history of the Army-Navy rivalry to win his first eight games. He has grounded Air Force in four of the past six years and is 14-5 lifetime against his two biggest rivals. Now in his 10th full season in Annapolis, Niumatalolo has beaten Notre Dame three times, guided Navy into the AP Top 25 in each of the past three seasons and appeared in nine bowl games, winning four. “His success speaks for itself,” senior co-captain Darryl Bonner said. “He tells us he knows how to win, and he’s proven it.” A unique triple-option offense and his hands-on leadership make Niumatalolo attractive to schools with more money and better facilities than Navy. He makes about $2 million per year, far more than Jeff Monken at Army and Air Force’s Troy Calhoun. “I’ve always told this to people: If there’s an offer, I’ll listen,” Niumatalolo said. “I’ve listened to these offers, but I have a great

WINTER OLYMPICS Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, told Fox News on Wednesday that it was “an open question” whether tensions on the Korean Peninsula could lead the U.S. to pull out of the Winter Games in South Korea. USOC spokesman Mark Jones responded Thursday by saying the American team has “not had any discussions, either internally or with our government partners, about the possibility of not taking teams to the 2018 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.” The White House then offered

U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley said it was “an open question” whether the U.S. would go to the Olympics.

a waffling commentary. In a briefing, press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders echoed Haley. Sanders said that “no official decision has been made” about whether the U.S. will send athletes to PyeongChang in February. Sanders said a decision wouldn’t come until a later date.

“Ultimately the president would certainly weigh in,” Sanders said. But within minutes, Sanders tweeted a clarification: “The U.S. looks forward to participating in the Winter Olympics in South Korea. The protection of Americans is our top priority and we are engaged with the South Koreans and other partner nations to secure the venues.” The USOC works closely with the State Department and Department of Homeland Security. The site of the games is about 50 miles from the demilitarized zone between the two Korean states.

Michael Shannon, Sally Hawkins and Octavia Spencer act up a storm in “The Shape of Water.”

KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY | THE REELIST

It’s them! Three overlooked actors surface in ‘Water’ “The Shape of Water” finally, finally gives Sally Hawkins a chance to really let her underused, often-unrecognized talents shine. “The Shape of Water” finally, finally gives Richard Jenkins a chance to really let his underused, often-unrecognized talents shine. “The Shape of Water” finally, finally gives Michael Shannon a chance to really let his underused, often-unrecognized talents shine. It’s admittedly odd to say that these three are unrecognized, since they have four Oscar nominations between them (two for Hawkins, one each for Shannon and Jenkins). Plus, they’ve been

in some big-budget blockbusters: Hawkins was in 2014’s “Godzilla,” Shannon was General Zod in “Man of Steel” and Jenkins was in “Kong: Skull Island.” But not one of the three has been able to crack into the mind of the general moviegoing public beyond “hey, it’s that actor who was in that thing. You know? The thing?” Seeing an immensely talented actor finally get the role that allows him or her to soar is a refreshing, strangely moving pleasure. To see three of them in the same movie is nothing short of a miracle. In “The Shape of Water,” Hawkins plays Elisa, a mute cleaning woman who works at a mysterious research lab in 1962. Jenkins is Giles, her lonely, artistic neighbor; Shannon is Richard Strickland, an

uber-patriotic, uber-menacing law enforcement officer. Elisa stumbles across — and then falls in love with — an otherworldly, aquatic creature (Doug Jones, not that you can tell it’s him) being held at the facility. Elisa and Giles eventually work to free the creature; Strickland works to stop them. It is, of course, a bizarre story, because the director is Guillermo del Toro and he rolls in a very weird car (he apparently wrote these parts specifically for the actors, including the actually Oscarhaving Octavia Spencer, who plays Elisa’s co-worker but has less to do than the other three). As in most of del Toro’s work, magical realism is the name of the game, meaning things that can’t happen in real

DIRECTOR: Guillermo del Toro STARS: Sally Hawkins, Michael Shannon, Richard Jenkins IN A NUTSHELL: A lonely woman working in a hidden government lab discovers a secret classified experiment and falls in love.

life happen so we can better understand real life. Here, the unreal realities involve unlikely love, the burden of solitude, the drive of duty. We watch impossible things unfold, but the three main performances are so mesmerizing, so communicative, that even the most fantastical happenings become utterly believable. It would be easy to assume I’m hopeful Hawkins, Jenkins and Shannon will now get bigger roles in more prestigious films. I’m not; I don’t have to be. The careers of all three show a careful, considered eye when it comes to balancing paying their mortgages and using their talents. I’m not even arguing that they should be recognized come awards season. “The Shape of Water” and their performances in it transcend all of that. It is a powerful film, lovely to look at and wonderful to watch, and it might still have been that way with bigger names on the poster. There’s something special, though, in watching three underappreciated actors finally get what they deserve — and get it all together.

FOX SEARCHLIGHT

How a loner artist shaped gay culture “Tom of Finland” presents a portrait of Touko Laaksonen (Pekka Strang), the real-life Finnish artist known for his sexually charged drawings of men, as it tracks his life from the 1940s through the 1980s, by which time his pictures had became icons of gay culture. Strang delivers a moving performance, capturing the emotional reticence of a man who can find sexual release and emotional comfort only in dark places, and can’t quite bring himself to emerge from the shadows. The overarching theme here is the power of art, even — or maybe especially — so-called deviant art. In the end, this is a story about how one artist’s loneliness helped create a global community.

Churchill, the human being Gary Oldman portrays a leader struggling with doubt in ‘Darkest Hour’

‘Wonder Wheel’ spins a hopeless melodrama

FOCUS FEATURES

FILM Gary Oldman figures Winston Churchill would have made a heck of an ad man. “He knew his brand before it was even a fashionable thing,” Oldman says of the iconic British prime minister. “It’s like Chaplin or Hitchcock — you only have to draw a line drawing and you go, ‘yeah, that’s Winston Churchill.’ He certainly had a sense of theater and showmanship, which is what he presented to the public.” Buried under prosthetics, Oldman presents another look at Churchill in “Darkest Hour.” Set in May 1940, in the early days of World War II, the biopic examines the English government as it tries to decide between a “negotiated peace,” which would preserve England’s sovereignty but would all but abandon mainland Europe to the Third Reich, or joining the fray, risking everything up to and including the country itself. The newly (and rather surprisingly) appointed Churchill was pro-war; the former prime minister, Neville Chamberlain, thought England and Germany could cut a deal. Edward Halifax, who had been the more likely choice for prime minister, believed England should do anything possible to avoid a sure-to-be disastrous war. “That was really important to us, that the adversaries were smart and actually may have been right in other circumstances,”

Gary Oldman wanted “Darkest Hour” to show the many wars Winston Churchill had to deal with.

says the film’s director, Joe Wright (“Atonement”). “I wanted to create kind of a political thriller where at times you would think Halifax was correct, and other times you would think Churchill was correct. Obviously, Churchill was going to win, but you wanted to have that doubt along the way.” Oldman (“The Dark Knight Rises”) says the film focuses on a precarious time for England. “We didn’t know if America was going to come in. There was this man, this nation, this island up against this terrible force,” the British actor says. “Not only was he fighting Adolf Hitler, but he was fighting his own Cabinet. There was this war within the war with this decision whether to capitulate or stand up.” For Oldman and Wright,

‘Darkest Hour’ (PG-13, 125 min.)

DIRECTOR: Joe Wright STARS: Gary Oldman, Kristin Scott Thomas, Lily James, Stephen Dillane IN A NUTSHELL: The fact-based story of how Winston Churchill’s leadership over four weeks in 1940 changed the course of world history.

Churchill’s behind-the-scenes political machinations were more important to their story than the front-page figure whose oratory rallied England at one of its darkest times. “We didn’t want it to be the edited highlights, the hits kind of thing,” Oldman says. “That’s not the movie I was interested in,” Wright continues.

“I’m interested in how individuals relate — or more often than not, don’t relate — to each other and to themselves. I read the script and I was entertained, and that’s really important, and then I found I was being moved. It talked about the importance of doubt in the attainment of wisdom, and that was something I found to be particularly inspiring. [Churchill] was savvy, he understood what he was doing at every step, yet sometimes he doubted himself.” And sometimes he messed up, like anyone else. “Churchill learned from his mistakes, learned from history,” Oldman says. “It’s amazing to think that [today] we’re in the same boat. We still think we can trust these people.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

FILM

‘I choose you! … Ryan Reynolds?’

Ryan Reynolds has signed on to play the titular character in a live-action Pokémon movie called “Detective Pikachu.” Justice Smith of the upcoming “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom” and “Big Little Lies” actress Kathryn Newton will also star in the film based on the Japanese franchise. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the story follows Detective Pikachu as he teams with Smith’s character to find the teen’s missing father. (EXPRESS)

Dexter Fletcher replacing Bryan Singer as director of Queen biopic “Bohemian Rhapsody”

FILM REVIEW Woody Allen’s 1950s-set “Wonder Wheel” is not a great movie, but it does warn you. Narrated by Justin Timberlake, in the persona of Coney Island lifeguard and aspiring playwright Mickey Rubin, the film opens with a caution that this tale will include — gasp! — symbolism. What he doesn’t tell you is just what eyerollingly melodramatic ends that symbolism will be employed in this well-acted, yet pointless and dull tale of lust. The story spun by Mickey concerns his love triangle. On one side is Kate Winslet’s Ginny, a former actress who now works as a waitress in a boardwalk clam house, and who is unhappily married to Jim Belushi’s Humpty, a bullying operator of a merry-go-round and recovering alcoholic. Juno Temple’s Carolina, Humpty’s daughter from his first marriage, is Ginny’s rival for the affections of Mickey, who strings the two women along until circumstances conspire to solve his romantic indecision for him. The good news is that Timberlake, Winslet and Temple are reliably watchable, and that the production design, by Allen’s collaborator Santo Loquasto, is pretty, in a garish way. But the story itself is repetitive, much like the Ferris wheel that lends the film its title. As with that ride, the view provided by “Wonder Wheel” might be scenic, but it goes nowhere — and slowly.

‘7 Days in Entebbe’

EXPECTED RELEASE: Jan. 26

EXPECTED RELEASE: March 16

SUMMARY: Dakota Fanning stars as a “Star Trek”obsessed Cinnabon worker who embarks on a road trip with one of those annoying yappy little dogs to drop off a script she wrote for a contest. The buzz is she has autism, though that’s not mentioned in the trailer. It’s almost like it’s not the most important part of who she is. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

SUMMARY: In 1976, four hijackers took over a plane flying from Tel Aviv to Paris, forced it to land in Uganda and demanded the release of Palestinian prisoners held in Israel and other countries. Of course, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was so much different back then; one move could set off violence and derail any talk of peace. Things are different now. K.P.K.

Pantone says its color choice for 2018 is “inventive and imaginative,” and it “lights the way to what is yet to come.” The color selection influences trends in the upcoming year. News outlets like Quartz were quick to point out that violet is not synonymous with purple. Violet has more blue, whereas purple has more red.

DIFFICULT

Fill in each column, row and 3x3 box with the digits 1 through 9 without repeating any. The twist in Samurai Sudoku is that the digits that appear in the overlapping boxes must work for both puzzles. A piece of advice to get you started: Don’t focus on completing one grid at a time. Keep the whole puzzle in mind as you go, because filling in a number in one grid could give you clues to another.
