I'm sure there must be a harder film to watch than Andy Warhol's Mrs Warhol, although I can't instantly think what it might be. Made in 1966, the work – at an hour and seven minutes, pretty well feature-length – shows the artist's 73-year-old mother in the dank basement she occupied in her son's Lexington Avenue house. Babbling away in a Mitteleuropa accent – she was born in Ruthenia – Julia Warhola plays the part of a much-married ex-movie star. Actually, Warhol's mum is just a senile old bat who irons, drifts between past and present and strokes the hair of her Andek's current pretty boy, Richard Rheem.

When you heard that Elbow were the surprise winners of this year's Mercury Prize, what was your reaction? A common response was to assume that the decision had a touch of the consolation prize about it, or of the long service medal and a pat on the head. But none of this detracts from the Bury band's fourth album being a quietly lovely bit of work: it's like a latterday Radiohead record without the unappealing smugness, but with an added Noël Coward/Cole Porter swing.

GQ-crowned "Modern Hotel Maestro" Klaus Ortlieb hosted roughly 60 guests at his Tribeca loft on Wednesday night in a preview of the yet-unfinished Cooper Square Hotel's culinary offerings. Mr. Ortlieb, 50, a partner in the hotel's management company, MK Hotels, suggested the somewhat divisive 21-story, 145-room, Carlos Zapata-designed lodge may be just weeks away from opening. Among other permitting issues, developer Matt Moss, who was also on hand for the festivities, said he was still trying to obtain a certificate of occupancy. (Mr. Moss' original partner in the project, Crescent Hotel developer Gregory Peck, did not attend.) Los Angeles-based chef Govind Armstrong commandeered Mr. Ortlieb's kitchen and home office for the fete, serving up samples of porterhouse, squab and a creamy celery soup with strips of bacon. The hotel's forthcoming Table 8 restaurant will be Mr. Armstrong's third location after L.A. and Miami.
