It was the darkest hour in the history of England — and it would turn out to be their finest. Led by Prime Minister Winston Churchill, the UK was staring down the barrel of Nazi Germany. Under pressure to make a peace deal that would turn the country into a German puppet state, Churchill refused and spurred Britain to fight back. An unrecognizable Gary Oldman stars as Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour, coming to theaters November 22, 2017.

Built for long days that start in the surf and end somewhere near the bar, Brixton's latest trunk lineup balances heritage styling with modern performance without leaning too hard into either. The Blitz Boardshort is the more aggressive option, a lightweight stretch trunk cut from quick-dry polyester and spandex with a water-repellent finish, invisible zip pocket, drainage eyelet, and bold graphic treatments that push beyond the standard washed-out beach palette. Available in both 19-inch and 21-inch outseams, it is engineered to move cleanly from paddle-outs to pool decks with minimal fuss. Countering it is the Classic Trunk 17", a stripped-back staple with clean lines, minimal branding, and an easy shorter cut that feels rooted in vintage surf culture while still delivering dependable quick-dry performance. Together, the collection hits the sweet spot between technical utility and everyday wearability, exactly where Brixton tends to do its best work.

Duke Cannon's Father's Day lineup leans into the brand's familiar formula of oversized grooming essentials, military-inspired packaging, and unapologetically rugged scent profiles, but beneath the tongue-in-cheek attitude sits a genuinely practical collection of daily-use upgrades. The gift guide ranges from heavyweight Big Ass Bricks of Soap and bourbon-forward beard care to colognes, tactical shower bundles, and shave kits built for dads who prefer utility over luxury-brand vanity. Everything arrives wrapped in Duke Cannon's signature blue-collar aesthetic, balancing humor with legitimately solid formulations made for hard-working skin, dry hands, and low-maintenance routines. It is less about reinventing grooming and more about turning everyday basics into something that feels giftable, durable, and distinctly masculine.

In this Atomic Blonde featurette, Theron, dierctor David Leitch, and stunt coordinator Sam Hargrave reveal the intese training that went down to create the fight choregraphy for the film. More impressive than that, she did all of the stunts herself.

The Dreame L40 Ultra Gen 2 continues the march toward fully autonomous floor care, combining powerful vacuuming with an equally capable mopping system in a package designed to require as little human intervention as possible. Its 25,000Pa Vormax suction, driven by a sixth-generation TurboForce motor, tackles everything from fine dust to pet hair and cat litter, while DuoScrub mopping and extendable SideReach and MopExtend technologies ensure corners, edges, and tight spaces don't get overlooked. The real centerpiece, however, is the multifunctional PowerDock, which automatically empties debris, cleans the mops, and uses hot-air drying to keep the system fresh between runs. Intelligent carpet handling, off-peak charging, and enough battery life to clean large homes in a single session round out a robot designed to do more than maintain floors. It aims to eliminate cleaning chores altogether, especially for busy households and pet owners.

Equal parts refreshing and performance-minded, Vita Coco bridges wellness and lifestyle with an easy-drinking formula that feels just as at home in a gym bag as it does beside a rooftop pool, making it one of the smartest ways to stay cool when temperatures refuse to cooperate.
