WORK, and a relative lack of news (or what passes for news here), causes me to mostly skip today, except for this:

ANITA PALLENBERG, the German-Italian actress and model who became best known for her relationships with members of the Rolling Stones, died on Tuesday in a hospital in Chichester, West Sussex, England. She was 73. In addition to the NYT obit, The Guardian makes more of an essay of it.

WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: Wonder Woman repeats atop the chart with 57.2MM on a leggy 45 percent drop. The Mummy reboot placed with a relatively meager 32.2MM against a 125MM production budget...but its foreign take was 141.8MM, which makes this Tom Cruise's biggest global debut and likely a breakeven for Universal, though it's a shaky foundation for its planned Dark Universe. Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie shows with 12.3MM, and its 44.6MM total against a reported 36MM budget may be a winner even before the home market. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales slides to fourth with 10.7MM, tho like The Mummy, this may get to break even on foreign receipts approaching 400MM. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 rounds out the Top Five with another 6.2MM.  Below the fold, It Comes At Night got buzz but only a sixth-place debut with 6MM.  And Baywatch continues to drown.
