Four people have accused Arcade Fire’s frontman, Win Butler, of sexual misconduct.
Three women came forward telling Pitchfork that they felt as though the incidents with Butler were “inappropriate given the gaps in age, power dynamics, and context in which they occurred.” The fourth person, who is gender-fluid, claimed that they were sexually assaulted twice by the lead singer.
The victims were all devoted fans of the Canadian indie rock band when the encounters occurred between 2015 to 2020. They ranged from ages 18 to 23 when each of their interactions began with Butler, whom was between 36 and 39 at the time.

Stage and screen actor Nicol Williamson, who played Hamlet onstage and Merlin on screen, died of esophageal cancer on December 16 in Amsterdam, where he had been living since 1970. His son announced the death yesterday, January 25. Reports vary on Williamson's age; he was either 73 or 75. For those familiar only with Williamson's movie work, he was best remembered for his cocaine-addicted Sherlock Holmes in Herbert Ross' The Seven-Per-Cent Solution (1976) and for his campy Merlin in John Boorman's Excalibur (1981, photo). Based on Nicholas Meyer's novel, in The Seven-Per-Cent Solution Dr. Watson (Robert Duvall) entices Holmes to seek psychiatric help with none other than a pre-Viggo Mortensen Sigmund Freud: Alan Arkin.

Though made for a modest $4 million (about $16 million today), The Seven-Per-Cent Solution turned out to be...
