MUSIC—Layering Ellie Rowsell’s Cocteau Twins-esque vocals over grungy, propulsive rock, Wolf Alice’s songs would be the perfect soundtrack to the Francesca Lia Block adaptation David Lynch once tried to make. Pairing literary allusions (“Wolf Alice” is an Angela Carter story BASED ON A FAIRY TALE) with hard-edged instrumentation, they’re ethereal without being twee, danceable without being dumb, and exactly as noisy as you want.

FILM—”They don’t make ’em like they used to” is a phrase usually mumbled by dazed grandpas staring off into space as they wet themselves. But in the case of westerns—one of the finest genres of film there ever was—they really don’t. Luckily, this week, the Laurelhurst has John Huston’s 1948 classic The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, starring Humphrey Bogart. Go see it on the big screen, just like your grandpa did. ERIK HENRIKSEN
