Finally! A solution for Jefferson’s grime. Park service reports that laser ablation test was able to clean dome

CASHLESS GIVING

SAUL LOEB (AFP/GETTY IMAGES)

DISTRICT There’s some good news in the fight against biofilm, the microscopic predator that affects one of Washington’s most iconic monuments. The National Park Service has announced success in the fourweek test run of a technique to remove the stubborn layer of black and gray film that has increasingly besmirched the white marble dome of the Jefferson Memorial. On Tuesday, the NPS said its test of a process called laser ablation has cleared the unsightly layer of microbial matter from 1,000 square feet of the monument’s dome. That is about onetenth of the total area of the dome. “We’re very satisfied with the results” of the laser ablation test, architectural conservator Justine Bello said. “The level of clean that was achieved exceeded our expectations.”

CULTURE

National Christmas Tree Lighting lottery opens

Biofilm has besmirched the Jefferson Memorial dome since 2006.

The test marks a victory in the grinding battle against biofilm, which is one of the most dogged natural enemies of stone structures. It has affected the Jefferson Memorial since 2006, and studies have been underway since 2014 to find the best way of getting it off. One of the major challenges in architectural restoration is removing the material while preserving the structure that it has covered. In laser ablation, laser energy

heats the undesirable gunk, which evaporates into the air, leaving the underlying stone intact. As scaffolding is removed, Tidal Basin visitors should be able to see the effects of the process. With the test a success, the park service said, it has tentative plans to do the job next year while it rehabilitates the monument’s roof areas. The roof project is in the park service’s requested budget for fiscal year 2018, the NPS said. MARTIN WEIL (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Safety on the waterfront D.C. officials prepare for The Wharf to draw millions annually to SW

expressline

THE WHARF

MICHAEL S. WILLIAMSON (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

THE DISTRICT For years, a digital calendar has counted down the days until the unveiling of the massive Wharf project on the Southwest Waterfront. With the clock headed to zero for today’s opening, city officials and the developer will get their first look at how throngs on land and water will test public safety preparations. Seasoned by the city’s building boom and reinvigorated communities, police and fire officials and city planners said they are drawing on experience as they ready to stand up the new entertainment and residential strip along Maine Avenue SW. In concert with the city, developers enhanced safety features through improved sightlines and lighting between buildings; made a heavy investment in a surveillance camera network; placed security bollards; and eliminated curbs to create pedestrian-only plazas and provide controlled access for bicycle patrol officers and emergency vehicles. The water-facing side also had anticipated upgrades, with fire department officials saying that more than $20 million has been approved for improvements to the public safety pier to house

police and fire marine units. The process to replace the city’s aging fire boat also is underway. “More people does not always equate directly into more calls for service,” said Kevin Donahue, the deputy mayor for public safety, in an interview. “Adjusting to even a development as large as this does not require us to fundamentally change how we approach responses and how we staff this part of the city.” For some longtime Southwest residents, including those who live on houseboats, the official assurances aren’t enough to quiet a nagging sense that adding many

more people to the area will stress services because of sheer volume. The stretch opening between Seventh and 12th streets in the first phase will start in drawing newcomers, with as many as 15 million annual visitors expected when the project is complete, developer Monty Hoffman said. When both phases are done in about five years, the result will be an entire Southwest neighborhood emerging in a complex stretching over 24 acres of land and twice that expanse across the Washington Channel. Waves of visitors will flow to and from entertainment sites,

including a 6,000-seat concert venue, about 2,400 restaurant seats and a host of smaller taverns and small live music spots. Andy Litsky, who has served for 18 years in elected office and now chairs the Advisory Neighborhood Commission, questions how so many vehicles and people will be able to move safely through residential streets not built for heavy traffic and with a transit system that closes at midnight. “My real concern is that we always have room in and room out for EMS vehicles,” Litsky said.

Gearing up for heavy congestion Opening today, the $2.5 billion project known as The Wharf will transform the city’s smallest quadrant by bringing entertainment and luxury housing to the Southwest waterfront. It will also bring lots of people and traffic. The first few days of operations alone are expected to draw as many as 20,000 visitors daily. But officials say they’re prepared. The neighborhood is within walking distance to two Metro stations. A shuttle will ferry visitors from L’Enfant Plaza and the Mall. Water taxis, above, will connect with Georgetown and Old Town Alexandria. For those who choose to drive, the development has 1,500 parking spaces and will eventually have 2,500. (TWP)

local CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA. A third white supremacist accused of participating in a brutal attack on a black man during last month’s “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville has been arrested, an Arkansas law enforcement official said Wednesday. Jacob Scott Goodwin, 22, of Ward, Ark., is allegedly one of at least five men who can be seen in video footage pummeling DeAndre Harris, a 20-year-old former special education instruction assistant, inside a parking garage after the Aug. 12 rally. The footage shows a man identified

by police as Goodwin, clad in a tactical military helmet and carrying a large plastic shield, kicking Harris on the ground. At one point, Goodwin appears to hit Harris with his shield. The attack on Harris, viewed tens of thousands of times on YouTube, has become a symbol of the violence and racial enmity that engulfed Charlottesville when white supremacists, Klan members and neo-Nazis clashed with counter-protesters. One counterprotester, Heather Heyer, 32, was killed when a Dodge Challenger allegedly driven by James Alex

Report: 5 charged in death of woman in hidden grave

Eight young men have been charged for their alleged roles in a gang racketeering conspiracy that operated in the suburbs of D.C. The U.S. Attorney’s Office said Wednesday that the men were named in a superseding indictment that a federal grand jury returned last month. The men, who range in age from 18 to 22, are alleged to be members of MS-13. The indictment says they were members and associates of MS-13 who planned and committed homicides, drug and gun trafficking, and extortion. The homicides included a slaying in March in Bedford County, Va. Prosecutors say all eight men are in custody. (AP)

Five people have been charged with murder in the beating death of a Maryland woman found buried in a clandestine grave. The Capital Gazette reported that Jenni Rivera Lopez, 21, was driven June 24 to a remote spot on or near the grounds of a youth camp outside Annapolis. Anne Arundel County Police say the woman was fatally beaten and buried and her body was found Sept. 20 through information provided by an unnamed person. The paper, which obtained charging documents, said all five were arrested in late September and are being held without bond. Further details weren’t immediately available. (AP)

Switzerland’s sewers may be a gold rush

Hundreds of homes were destroyed as deadly fires tore through the Coffey Park neighborhood of Santa Rosa, Calif.

‘Catastrophic’ wildfires not over, officials warn Death toll rises to 21 as wine country blazes grow in size, number CALIFORNIA The wildfires tearing through California wine country flared anew Wednesday, growing in size and number as authorities issued new evacuation orders and announced that hundreds of more homes and businesses had been lost. The death toll climbed to 21 and was expected to rise higher still. At least 3,500 homes and businesses have been destroyed since the fires started Sunday, making them the third-deadliest and most destructive blazes in state history. “We have had big fires in the past. This is one of the biggest,

most serious, and it’s not over,” Gov. Jerry Brown said at a news conference. The state’s top emergency officials said that 8,000 firefighters and other personnel were battling the blazes and more resources were pouring in from Oregon, Nevada, Washington and Arizona. Nearly three days after the flames ignited, firefighters were still unable to gain control of the conflagration. California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection spokesman Daniel Berlant said 22 wildfires were burning, up from 17 on Tuesday. “Make no mistake, this is a serious, critical, catastrophic event,” said Ken Pimlott, chief of the department. He said the fires have burned through a staggering 265 square miles of urban

and rural areas. The return of high winds and low humidity ignited ground that was parched from years of drought. “We are literally looking at explosive vegetation,” he said. “These fires are changing by the minute in many areas.” Officials voiced concern that separate fires would merge into even larger infernos. Authorities ordered more evacuations for parts of Sonoma Valley. Sonoma County Sheriff Robert Giordano said hundreds of people were still reported missing. But officials believe many of those people will be found, because chaotic evacuations and poor communications have made locating friends and family difficult. JONATHAN J. COOPER

The high quantity of gold is largely due to the presence of many gold refineries in the area. Bloomberg said about 70 percent of the world’s gold goes through Swiss refineries annually. (EXPRESS)

Trump suggests he could revoke NBC’s licence President Trump on Wednesday threatened NBC over a news report he called “pure fiction,” and he lashed out at the news media, declaring that it is “frankly disgusting the press is able to write whatever it wants to write.” “People should look into it. … The press should speak more honestly,” Trump said during an Oval Office meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. “I’ve seen tremendously dishonest press. It’s not even a question of distortion.” The president was reacting to a report that he pushed senior aides for a major expansion of the U.S. nuclear arsenal. Earlier in the day, Trump on Twitter dismissed that report as “pure fiction” and raised the possibility that he would support stripping the broadcast licenses of news networks that report what he believes to be inaccurate information. Trump’s morning tweets came after NBC News reported that Trump purportedly told senior national security advisers during a meeting last summer that he favored what amounted to nearly a tenfold increase in nuclear weapons. Legal experts called the president’s threats against NBC empty, noting that licenses are not granted to networks but rather to individual stations across the country. Furthermore, they said, it is rare for those licenses to be stripped. DAVID NAKAMURA

Boy Scouts to admit girls, in historic shift

THURSDAY | 10.12.2017 | EXPRESS | 13

Set your mark... parks.arlingtonva.us/lbpjumpin

CULTURE In its latest momentous policy shift, the Boy Scouts of America will admit girls into the Cub Scouts starting next year and establish a new program for older girls based on the Boy Scout curriculum that enables them to aspire to the coveted Eagle Scout rank, the highest it offers. Founded in 1910 and long considered a bastion of tradition, the Boy Scouts have undergone major changes in the past five years, agreeing to accept openly gay members and adult volunteers, as well as transgender boys. The expansion of girls’ participation, announced Wednesday after unanimous approval by the organization’s board of directors, is arguably the biggest change yet, potentially opening the way for thousands of girls to join. Many scouting organizations already allow both genders and use gender-free names such as Scouts Canada. But for now, the Boy Scout label will remain. “There are no plans to change our name at this time,” spokeswoman Effie Delimarkos said. Under the new plan, Cub Scout dens — the smallest unit — will be single gender, either all-boys or all-girls. The larger Cub Scout packs will have the option to

remain single gender or welcome both genders. The program for older girls is expected to start in 2019 and will enable girls to earn the same Eagle Scout rank that has been attained by astronauts, admirals and senators. Boy Scout leaders said the change was needed to provide more options for parents. “The values of scouting — trustworthy, loyal, helpful, kind, brave and reverent, for example — are important for both young men and women,” said Michael Surbaugh, chief scout executive. The announcement follows months of outreach by the BSA. The Girl Scouts of the USA have criticized the initiative, saying it strains the centuryold bond between the two

organizations. Girl Scout officials have suggested the BSA’s move was driven partly by a need to boost revenue, and they contended there is fiscal stress in part because of past settlements paid by the BSA in sex abuse cases. In August, the president of the Girl Scouts, Kathy Hopinkah Hannan, accused the Boy Scouts of seeking to covertly recruit girls into their programs while disparaging the Girl Scouts’ operations. The BSA recently increased its annual membership fee for youth members and adult volunteers from $24 to $33, but Surbaugh said the decision to expand programming for girls was not driven by financial factors.

Navy fires 2 commanders over warship collision

Worker says he warned of shooter before massacre

President Trump will nominate his deputy chief of staff, Kirstjen Nielsen, as his next secretary of Homeland Security, the White House announced Wednesday. The job was left vacant when John F. Kelly left the department to become White House chief of staff in July. Nielsen, who served as Kelly’s chief of staff when he was DHS secretary, accompanied him to the White House as his deputy.

The U.S. Navy on Tuesday fired the USS John S. McCain’s top two officers, calling the warship’s deadly August collision with an oil tanker “preventable.” Cmdr. Alfredo J. Sanchez, the McCain’s commander, and Cmdr. Jessie L. Sanchez, its executive officer, were relieved of their duties and reassigned, Navy officials announced Wednesday. Both were fired because of a lack of confidence, officials said. The McCain, a guided-missile destroyer, collided with a merchant vessel on Aug. 21 near Singapore. Ten American sailors died and five others were injured. An investigation is ongoing. (TWP)

A maintenance worker said Wednesday he told hotel dispatchers to call police and report that a gunman had opened fire with a rifle inside the Mandalay Bay before the shooter began firing from his highrise suite into a crowd at a nearby music festival. Worker Stephen Schuck told NBC News that he was on the 32nd floor of the hotel when he heard gunshots, and that a hotel security guard, who had been shot in the leg, peeked out from an alcove and told him to take cover. Police believe gunman Stephen Paddock shot a hotel security guard through the door of his suite six minutes before he began his attack. (AP)

nation+world SPAIN Spanish authorities gave Catalonia’s separatist leader five days to explain whether his ambiguous statement on secession was a formal declaration of independence and warned Wednesday that his answer dictated whether they would apply never-used constitutional powers to curtail the region’s autonomy. Threatening to invoke a section of the Spanish Constitution to assert control over the country’s rogue region, Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said Catalan president Carles Puigdemont’s

response to the central government’s ultimatum would be crucial in deciding “events over the coming days.” Puigdemont announced on Tuesday that he was using the victory in a banned Oct. 1 referendum to proceed with a declaration of Catalan independence, but proposed freezing its implementation for a few weeks to allow for dialogue and mediation with the government in Madrid. His equivocal position seemed designed to appease the most fervent separatists, but also to build support — both in Catalonia

‘Dystopian’ new reality Three weeks since Hurricane Maria, much of Puerto Rico still dark, dry and frustrated

Doctors: Rule ignores birth control science

ROIG-FRANZIA AND ARELIS R. HERNANDEZ

HEALTH It is not the religious exemption debate that worries women’s health experts regarding the Trump administration’s new birth control rules allowing more employers to opt out of covering contraceptives as a free preventive benefit for women — it is selective use of science. “This rule is listing things that are not scientifically validated, and in some cases things that are wrong, to try to justify a decision that is not in the best interests of women,” said Dr. Hal Lawrence, CEO of the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. Doctors and researchers say the administration ignored studies that didn’t support its ideas and stretched others. Three factors in the rules are raising questions. First, there is the emergency contraception often called the “morning-after pill.” Some religious objections say it is a form of abortion, but researchers say studies disprove that claim. A second point by the administration challenges the efficacy of birth control pills, but evidence indicates women who used birth control consistently year-round account for very few unintended pregnancies. Third, the rule suggests a link between birth control and promiscuity and increased teen sexual activity, using data from 1960-1990. Doctors say birth control methods and research have improved since then.

PUERTO RICO It has been three weeks since Hurricane Maria savaged Puerto Rico, and life in the capital city of San Juan inches toward something that remotely resembles a new, uncomfortable form of normalcy. Families once again loll on the shaded steps of the Mercado de Santurce traditional market on a Sunday afternoon, and a smattering of restaurants and stores open their doors along sidewalks still thick with debris and tangled power lines. But much of the rest of the island remains in the chokehold of a turgid, frustrating and perilous slog toward recovery. When night comes, the vast majority of the 100-mile-long, 35-mile-wide island plunges into profound darkness, exposing the impotence of a long-troubled power grid that was shattered by Maria’s winds and rains. Eightyfour percent of the island is still without power, according to the governor’s office, and local officials in many areas are steeling themselves — with a sense of anger and dread — for six months or more without electricity. Roughly half of Puerto Ricans have no working cellphone service, creating islands of isolation within the island and cutting off hundreds of thousands of people in regions outside the largest metropolitan areas from regular contact with their families, aid groups, medical care and the central government. Christine Enid Nieves Rodriguez, who has set up a community kitchen near the southeastern city of Humacao, has dubbed the new reality Puerto Rico’s “dystopian future.” Attendant with that future are worries about outbreaks of waterborne diseases, such as scabies or Zika, which is transmitted by mosquitoes breeding

in standing water. Just 63 percent of the island’s residents have access to clean drinking water, and only 60 percent of wastewater treatment plants are working, according to figures released by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. In poorer communities, such as the San Juan neighborhood of Carolina and the mountain town of Canovanas, doctors are seeing worrying numbers of patients with conjunctivitis and gastritis, brought on by contaminated water and poor hygiene. With electrical and cellphone outages complicating commerce, large swaths of the island — and even many spots within the biggest cities — are cash-only zones, as if credit cards never existed. More than 40 percent of bank branches have yet to reopen, according to the governor’s office, and about 560 ATMs are functioning for an island with a population of more than 3.4 million.

On brink of cash crisis The House is set to vote as soon as today on a $36.5 billion disaster aid package that includes provisions to avert a potential cash crisis in Puerto Rico prompted by Hurricane Maria. Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rossello warned congressional leaders over the weekend that the U.S. territory he leads is “on the brink of a massive liquidity crisis that will intensify in the immediate future.” Hurricane damage has inhibited the island’s ability to collect local taxes, and the government there is largely unable to borrow in the credit markets because of its debt crisis. (TWP)

On the upside, chronic gasoline shortages that plagued the early days after the storm seem to be easing, at least in the larger cities, and 86 percent of grocery stores have reopened. But the journey to fill the tank or the shopping cart can be an exercise

in faith and blind courage. In the sprawling metropolis of San Juan, crisscrossed by major highways and multi-laned streets, most streetlights are not functioning. Only a surge of post-hurricane politeness and patience seems to be preventing the morgues from swelling with traffic deaths. It’s enough to make many Puerto Ricans consider fleeing the island for good, even though the thought of leaving a place they love can still seem implausible. What awaits many of them here is months of subsistence living. In the town of Canovanas near the El Yunque National Forest, Lucy Rivera, an unemployed single mother, has crammed nine people, including her disabled mother and mentally ill brother, into a house that lost its roof. She said, “When I think about grandchildren, I know that I don’t want this for them.” MANUEL

NLDS GAME 4 | NATIONALS 5, CUBS 0

MLB PLAYOFFS Three October heartbreaks have conditioned the Nationals not to expect many breaks this time of year. But baseball’s higher powers dispensed a gift in the form of heavy rain in northeast Illinois Tuesday evening, allowing them, after a postponement, to start Stephen Strasburg in a mustwin Game 4 against the Cubs on Wednesday at Wrigley Field. St rasbu rg was i n iti a l ly deemed too sick Tuesday, and the Nationals’ stated decision to stick with Tanner Roark was met with incredulity. But Strasburg woke up feeling better Wednesday and told his bosses he wanted the ball. And in a span of 24 dizzying hours, Strasburg shredded his harsh reputation —warranted or not — that preceded him. In a 5-0 victory, he transformed from always unavailable to valiant. In his third career playoff start, Strasburg broke his own club playoff record with 12 strikeouts — seven on a nasty

changeup, four on curveballs, and one on a fastball. Over seven innings he allowed three hits, walked two batters, and threw 106 pitches — 72 for strikes. Michael A. Taylor provided the final heroics with an eighthinning grand slam — the first in franchise playoff history — off Wade Davis to seal the win. But for much of the day, the Nationals’ bats could not find

holes against Jake Arrieta, who held them to two hits over four innings. The Nationals built a lead in the third inning when Trea Turner — who doubled for his first hit of the series — scored on Addison Russell’s fielding error. Jon Lester, notorious for his inability to hold runners on, replaced Arrieta in the fifth. The switch gave the Nationals the green light to wreak havoc

on the basepaths. But to do that, they had to get on base. Lester retired the first nine batters he faced. It wasn’t until he walked Ryan Zimmerman with one out in the eighth inning that he was forced to confront his weakness — throwing to first. After daring Lester twice, Zimmerman was picked off on a slide thanks to a replay review. It seemed momentum had flipped, but the Cubs weren’t safe. Daniel Murphy stroked a single to center field to end Lester’s 32 /3 inning relief appearance. Right-hander Carl Edwards Jr. promptly issued walks to Anthony Rendon and Matt Wieters to load the bases for Taylor. Edwards threw a pitch inside for ball one and didn’t throw another one. Davis entered the game, and Taylor lifted a 94 mph fastball through the wind just over the ivy-covered brick wall and into the basket in right field. The Nationals dugout erupted. The Wrigley faithful went silent. JORGE CASTILLO (THE WASHINGTON POST)

He set the tone for the series in Game 1, outdueling Stephen Strasburg with seven innings of two-hit ball to lead the Cubs to a 3-0 win in Washington. The 27-yearold from Dartmouth pitched to a 2.52 ERA in night games during the regular season, going 6-0 over 12 starts.

RICK SNIDER | SPORTS GURU

Division favorites: Redskins, Eagles to decide NFC East The road to the playoffs for the Redskins is filled with trap games and tossups. It likely ends with a wild-card berth. The Giants (0-5) are dead in the playoff race. Defending division champion Dallas (2-3) barely has a pulse just one year after a charmed season. That leaves Philadelphia (4-1) and Washington (2-2) to compete for the NFC East crown. For Washington to have any chance, it must win in Philadelphia next week after losing the season opener to the Eagles at home. Otherwise, Philadelphia will own a big lead in the division and the first tie-breaker, head-to-head record. Should the Redskins win that rematch, they could feasibly go 10-6. The Eagles look like an 11-5 team right now, but they could go 10-6 and still finish 5-1 in the division. Of course, injuries could

change everything, especially if either team loses its quarterback. New York and Dallas have time to reverse poor starts. Both teams have served as Washington’s nemesis at different points for decades. Washington and Philadelphia each have four toss-up games remaining. And given the NFL’s penchant for upsets, both the Redskins and Eagles will suffer unexpected losses. But each team has already proven strong enough to survive bad stretches. Washington returns from its bye Sunday against San Francisco, which could be easy to overlook. The Redskins are banged up but rested. The 49ers are 0-5 but lost their past four games by 11 points combined. San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan knows Redskins QB Kirk Cousins well after serving as his offensive coordinator for two years in Washington. The Redskins should avoid disaster, but it’s still a toss-up.

Home games against the Vikings and Broncos and a visit to the Chargers are toss-ups, too. To reach the playoffs, Washington will likely need to sweep the series with New York and beat San Francisco, Philadelphia, Dallas, Minnesota, Arizona and the Chargers. Road games at Seattle, New Orleans and Dallas and a home game vs. Denver could reasonably be losses. Philadelphia has a tougher path over the next month. It could easily lose to Carolina, Washington and Denver while beating the 49ers. Philadelphia could then reasonably beat the Cowboys twice and take down the Bears, Rams and Giants before losing to Seattle and Oakland to finish 10-6. Washington’s biggest problem may be injuries. The Redskins’ defense, playing surprisingly well, has to keep it up. Washington’s offense needs to find a running game, and Cousins has to find a way to complete more deep balls. Otherwise, the Redskins will slug it out in too many close games. The good news is coach Jay Gruden is at his best during tough times. That should help keep Washington in the playoff chase until the end. Rick Snider has covered sports in Washington since 1978. Follow him on Twitter @Snide_Remarks

RodgersCromartie had left the bench and gone to the locker room in the second half but later returned.

World Cup absence will cost U.S. millions, spark upheaval in federation

SOCCER The failure of the U.S. men’s national team to qualify for the World Cup — a feat it had accomplished for two decades — will have severe implications. Needing only a draw Tuesday to secure a place in soccer’s quadrennial championship next

summer in Russia, the U.S. fell behind the last-place team from Trinidad and Tobago by two goals in the first half and lost 2-1. After qualifying for seven consecutive World Cups since 1990, the United States will have to wait until 2022 at the earliest to return. The cost of its absence will almost certainly include changes at the top, including coach Bruce Arena and U.S. Soccer Federation president Sunil Gulati. Competing in a middling

Failure to qualify will be expensive

The Americans finished fifth in their group with a 3-4-3 record, by far their worst showing in a six-nation qualifying round. It was also their most defeats since going 0-3-1 in failing to make the 1974 tournament. Missing the World Cup will affect the USSF’s bottom line. Making the round of 16 at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil made the organization $10.5 million. The absence of a U.S. team at the most popular sporting event on the planet will make it difficult to attract new sponsors. Fox Sports will also take a major hit after outbidding ESPN for the next three tournaments at a cost of about $500 million. STEVEN GOFF (THE WASHINGTON POST)

A colleague told him the news shortly after Michelin’s announcement. “We did a little jumping up and down in the office, hugging each other and feeling good,” Goodman says. Other than the three new additions, the 19 restaurants that graced the initial Bib Gourmand list have been recognized again this year, including Bad Saint, Thip Khao, 2Amys, The Royal and several restaurants under Jose Andres’ ThinkFoodGroup umbrella.

Sfoglina would seem to stretch the definition to its breaking point. Diners at the restaurant could pair a glass of vino or a dessert with a “nibble” and a small plate, but they would find it next to impossible to cobble together a two-course meal with any of the restaurant’s pastas without crossing the $40 limit. “We recognize that a lot of these menu offerings may go above that [price point],” says Lauren Davis, spokeswoman for Michelin. “But it is possible” to put together a meal under $40.

Hamilton Leithauser MUSICIAN

Hamilton Leithauser, 39, was born and raised in D.C., but he moved to New York for college in 1996 and never looked back. Still, the former singer for indie rock band The Walkmen occasionally pops back into town for shows or to visit his parents in the Cleveland Park house he grew up in. He recently spent time holed up with ex-Vampire Weekend member Rostam Batmanglij in Georgetown while writing “I Had a Dream That You Were Mine,” their 2016 collaborative album that features Leithauser’s distinctive crooning. Touring brings him back to D.C. next week (9:30 Club, 815 V St. NW; Wed., 7 p.m., $25), and if he could find the time, he’d spend his perfect D.C. day at his dad’s work, the movies and the golf course. The first thing I would do is go to the National Gallery of Art, where I always take my daughters [who are 6 and 3] and where my dad [Mark Leithauser] works. He’s been there for 40-something years and is the head of the design department. I got dragged there as a kid — it was so boring — but as I’ve grown older I’ve realized how fun it is to take the kids and go through the Sculpture Garden and show them all the great paintings, the triangles out on the plaza and the light-show walkway where you’re not allowed to run, down by the cafeteria. I always had a really good time going down to Hains Point Golf Course [aka East Potomac

Golf Course]. I really miss that about D.C. because I live in New York and there’s no options. I’m not a big golfer or anything, and neither are my friends, but we all enjoyed going out on the course and hitting the ball around. I love all the old guys kicking back in the clubhouse there. It’s a great scene, it’s a public course, it’s cheap and there’s no pretension. I love the Uptown Theater [aka AMC Loews Uptown 1] — it’s my favorite theater. I think I saw “Star Wars” there when I was like 5. It’s such a big, old, great movie theater. They just do it right and it’s just exciting. We might eat at Vace, [the Italian deli] across the street

— that’s been there forever. For a beer, I might go to The Tombs. [When writing “I Had a Dream That You Were Mine”] we went down to The Tombs a couple of times, which is sorta in that Georgetown University scene. It’s near Rostam’s parents’ house and we would go take beer breaks there. Last time I was in D.C. I was playing at the Rock and Roll Hotel, and I do like that ramen restaurant nearby, Toki Underground. I thought it was pretty fantastic, just authentic and good. I go to a lot of a ramen restaurants — I’m a little picky — and I felt like that one really passed muster. (AS TOLD TO RUDI GREENBERG)

The survival instincts of Margaret Cho COMEDY A comedian’s job, Margaret Cho says, is to push boundaries and be offensive. That’s how you get to her preferred type of comedy: the severe kind. “I think that’s the best, when it’s just really harsh and honest,” says Cho, who brings her latest stand-up show, “Fresh Off the Bloat,” to the Warner Theatre on Saturday. “There’s a lot of brutality and severity, and that’s what I’m always fighting to get to.” Cho uses her brash comedy to riff on topics like racism, sexism, abuse, homophobia and rape culture — drawing heavily on her own experiences as a feminist, bisexual Korean-American who

speaks openly about having been raped and abused. But “Fresh Off the Bloat” marks a bit of a rebirth. “This time, I’m talking about being fresh off drugs, drinking and on the brink of suicide and I’ve come back to life,” she says. “I’ve finally been fished out of the River Styx.” In 2016, Cho entered rehab to focus on her mental health after her friends staged an intervention (she thought she was going to a party and showed up with wine). “I loved my hospital ‘Girl, Interrupted’ moment,” she says now, reflecting on the year she spent getting better. “I just kind of dropped out [of society], and I think getting away is fabulous. You learn how to find a place for self-care, whatever that looks like — so for me, it was all about trying to find a way to live in the real world.”

Acne?

Cho grew up in San Francisco, where her parents ran a bookstore that specialized in gay literature. She started doing stand-up in the ’80s and has since appeared in movies and TV shows (including memorable turns as Kim Jong Il and Kim Jong Un on “30 Rock”); released two albums of songs; written

books and designed fashion lines. As the first Asian-American woman to star in her own network sitcom (the mid-’90s’ “AllAmerican Girl”), she frequently critiques issues like diversity on TV, especially in her stand-up. “It’s a lot about race and comedy and television, it’s talking about whitewashing, it’s about

how things have and haven’t changed,” Cho says. “There used to be very little representations [of any minorities], and now we have some. It’s not the best, but it’s getting better.” Cho hasn’t concealed her disdain for what she calls the “vile” President Trump and says she plans to tear into “disgusting politics” throughout the tour. “He’s a major issue in my life, and a lot of people are really scared,” she says. “How do we survive this? It’s nuts.” Coming to D.C. — less than a mile from the White House, no less — will weigh on her show, she says: “It’s like coming to the center of American politics, where it all starts and ends. Everybody there has a stake in politics and is somehow ensconced in political life. There’s a lot to get into.” Maybe it seems ironic or contradictory to laugh at the topics she discusses, but Cho is adamant about the healing power of humor. It’s a coping mechanism, she says, and joking about pain can help alleviate it. “I think sometimes it’s really the only way we can fight back and survive,” she says.

‘Loving Vincent’ There is animation, and then there is ANIMATION. Each frame of “Loving Vincent” — and there are more than 65,000 of them — is of a hand-painted oil painting in the style of Vincent van Gogh, making it what the filmmakers are calling the “first fully painted animated feature film.” In this biopic of van Gogh, one of his models attempts to investigate how the famous artist died (and it has nothing to do with the ear-slicing thing). Avalon Theatre, 5612 Connecticut Ave. NW; opens Fri., $9.25-$12.50.

‘Revolutionary Rising: Soviet Film Vanguard’ Russian cinema has been vitally important to the art form since the beginning. The National Gallery of Art is marking the 100th anniversary of the October Revolution, which not only had political implications but artistic ones: Not long after the uprising, the Soviet government actually started sponsoring experimental filmmaking. The museum’s “Revolutionary Rising: Soviet Film Vanguard” series will showcase some of the landmarks of early Russian cinema, kicking off Friday at 2:30 p.m. with “The Fall of the Romanov Dynasty,” a 1927 film that marked the 10th anniversary of the revolution. Screenings of the series’ four other films all feature live musical accompaniment. National Gallery of Art, East Building, Fourth Street and Constitution Avenue NW; Fri. through Nov. 12, various dates and times, free.

Middleburg Film Festival The Middleburg Film Festival turns 5 this year, and it has firmly established itself as the place for local audiences to catch an early glimpse of Oscar front-runners. The lineup includes “I, Tonya,” a Tonya Harding biopic starring Margot Robbie that was one of the darlings of the Toronto International Film Festival this year. Indie actress Greta Gerwig makes her solo directorial debut with the comedy “Lady Bird.” Then there’s “Mudbound,” based on the 2008 novel set in post-World War II Mississippi, which follows two veterans — one white and one black — as they return from war to very different homes. If you’re planning on going to the festival, buy tickets early, as some events and films have already sold out.

weekendpass Hoofed animal with dragon interlace This bronze creature is one of a set of four that together formed the base of an ancient Chinese serving vessel — possibly used for diplomatic dinners — dating to around 500 to 400 B.C., during the Zhou dynasty. Its siblings belong to museums in London, San Francisco and Kyoto. The Freer Gallery’s piece was previously in storage, but it’s now on display in the newly renovated museum.

A fresher look at the art of Asia

SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS)

The Historical Buddha This statue, from 14th-century Tibet, is part of the Sackler Gallery exhibit “Encountering the Buddha: Art and Practice Across Asia.” As with many depictions of the historical Buddha at the moment of his enlightenment, this Buddha is touching the earth with his right hand — a movement that symbolizes his victory over the cycle of suffering — while his left hand is in a meditation position. The long earlobes — stretched by the heavy, precious earrings the Buddha wore back when he was a prince — remind viewers that he began his life as royalty and then rejected material wealth. S.D.

The Freer and Sackler galleries reopen with a two-day festival and new exhibits MUSEUMS After extensive renovations, the Smithsonian’s museum of Asian art — comprising the Freer and Sackler galleries — reopens this weekend with a two-day “IlluminAsia” festival and a range of new and revamped exhibits. The intimate Freer Gallery of Art was the Smithsonian’s first art museum when it opened in 1923 to house the collection of Detroit industrialist Charles Lang Freer, with a unique commitment to highlighting the dialogue between Asian and American art. While it was closed for the past 19 months for renovations, curators re-envisioned the permanent installations — featuring works from the Middle East, the Indian subcontinent and East Asia — to make them more accessible to contemporary museumgoers. “Instead of it just being, ‘Here are these great masterpieces, and we’re going to tell you in a very bland, institutional voice all of these factoids about them,’ each curator came up with a

big idea,” says Lee Glazer, the Freer and Sackler’s curator of American art. For example, South Asian art is now presented under the heading “Body Image,” which brings together bronze sculptures of Hindu gods; Buddhist and Jain works; and painted portraits of Mughal emperors. The adjacent Arthur M. Sackler Gallery — which closed in July for less major changes — reopens with four new temporary exhibits, including “Encountering the Buddha: Art and Practice Across Asia,” which shows how Buddhist teachings are expressed through diverse art forms, and “Divine Felines: Cats of Ancient Egypt.” “It’s one museum but two very different experiences, because in the Sackler, it’s going to be very immersive, very intense — a lot of new media is being introduced,” Glazer says. The Buddhism exhibit, for example, features the Tibetan Buddhist Shrine Room, where visitors can view nearly 250 objects without labels or glass

Wine container with geometric patterns This foot-tall wine container was made of bronze with silver inlays in China around 350-300 B.C.

cases disrupting the mood; an app for the shrine will allow visitors to bring the meditative experience home with them. Kicking it all off is “IlluminAsia,” a multisensory indoor/ outdoor extravaganza Saturday evening and Sunday that was organized in partnership with the Smithsonian Folklife Festival.

In this Sackler installation by contemporary Indian artist Subodh Gupta, you can walk among 30 gleaming bronze towers, some as tall as 15 feet, that are connected by cotton thread. The spires are reminiscent of the ones that are placed on religious buildings in India and topped with a cross, crescent or other religious symbol. Gupta’s towers, which lack these signifiers, emphasize similarities among religions, and the threads that cross between them may reference the interconnected nature of humankind. S.D.

This sculpture, on display in the Sackler exhibit “Divine Felines: Cats of Ancient Egypt,” portrays the lion-headed Egyptian goddess of war. In one legend, she was sent by her father, the sun god Re, to punish mankind for failing to worship him, and her rage was so fierce she nearly destroyed humanity. Re was only able to stop her by getting her drunk on beer that had been dyed red to look like blood — an episode that her devotees celebrated with regular, alcohol-fueled parties at her temples.

famous fish market, stalwart theater and happy hours at Cantina Marina, that part of the city has rarely buzzed with life. Molly Smith, artistic director of Arena Stage and one of the trailblazers in the neighborhood, calls it “the forgotten quadrant.” But the area has an amenity that Shaw and 14th Street can’t offer: a waterfront. The Wharf, a sprawling, 24-acre project, promises to stretch the city’s nightlife and restaurant boom all the way to the Washington Channel and turn the forgotten quadrant into an entertainment mecca.

weekendpass The Wharf’s other music venues … Pearl Street Warehouse 33 Pearl St. SW If The Anthem is all about big shows, this venue’s trademark will be intimacy, says co-owner Bruce A. Gates, who has chosen to focus on roots, Americana, bluegrass and blues acts. Booker T. Jones kicks off the performances Thursday in the rustic 4,000-square-foot space, where tickets will average $25. The diner-influenced restaurant will serve such classics as Cobb salads, burgers and chowders. “We wanted to create the impression that we’ve taken over an abandoned warehouse,” Gates says.

Union Stage 740 Water St. SW From its street-level windows just off Pearl Street, Union Stage — opening in December — will look like a neighborhood bar with a passion for craft beer and an aesthetic stripped from the rock-’n’-roll ’70s. Think Rolling Stones and “Easy Rider,” says Daniel Brindley, who, with his brother Luke, owns Union Stage as well as Jammin Java in Vienna. Downstairs, out of sight, is where the music magic will happen. The rock club-style venue has room for 450 and promises a mix of touring acts. “It’s twice the size as Jammin Java,” Brindley says. “We’re going to capture a new set of bands.” LAVANYA RAMANATHAN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

The Anthem features two balcony levels with some seating and a general- admission floor.

see from the back. There are also plenty of nooks and crannies to explore and a raised area behind the floor by the soundboard that offers elevated views.

co-owner Seth Hurwitz had a message for the fans who had filed into the 57,000-square-foot building for a sneak preview. “Congratulations and welcome to your new venue here in D.C.,” he said. “I hope you enjoy it as much as we have building it and getting

The opening lineup is only the beginning.

it ready for you.” Based on previews of the $60 million venue at The Wharf, Hurwitz shouldn’t have to worry about that. Here are seven things to know about D.C.’s newest musical attraction.

The city doesn’t have anything else like it. The space can hold as many as 6,000 people (about five times the capacity of 9:30 Club, which Hurwitz also co-owns) or as few as 2,500, thanks to a stage that moves and seats that can fill the floor for comedy shows and more intimate concerts. In many ways, The Anthem feels like a mix between a small club like 9:30, a larger theater like the Warner and a small arena. (The closest comparison is probably Echostage, which suits DJs

better than live bands.) Fans of the 9:30 Club will notice a similar industrial look and charm to The Anthem and, despite its larger size, a similar intimacy on the floor. There are also two balconies above the floor with seats. Hurwitz says he’s wanted to build a venue like this for a long time — a space that can accommodate as many people as a small arena or convention center but was designed with music in mind. “Our goal is to make it the best music venue in the world of its size,” he says.

The Anthem, 901 Wharf St. SW; opens Thu.

Dan Steinhilber’s “Untitled Polyrhythm” is displayed in The Anthem’s lobby.

There isn’t a bad spot. The best seats in The Anthem are the 450 theater-style boxes that hang from both balconies. These so-called “Super Excellent Seats” cost more than a regular ticket and are angled to face the stage. The rest of the venue is generaladmission standing, and there’s even space to stand behind the “Super Excellent Seats.” “You

can go anywhere,” Hurwitz says. “You’re free to wander and find your best spot.” That means that, even for the Foo Fighters’ opening show, or Lorde’s in April, you can buy a regular ticket, arrive early and end up in the front row — unique for big shows in the age of VIP packages. On the balconies, the seats closest to the stage offer the best views but you can still

You might assume that I.M.P., the concert promoter that Hurwitz is the chairman of, is stacking the deck for The Anthem’s opening weeks, but he says October and November just happen to be busy months for music. Besides Foo Fighters, you can see New Orleans mainstays Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue with soul revivalists Vintage Trouble (Sun., $37-$57), French indie rockers Phoenix (Mon., $45-$55), reunited dance/rock act LCD Soundsystem (Tue. & Wed., $61.75-$81.75), superstar DJ Zedd (Oct. 21, $41$76) and folk rockers The Head and The Heart (Oct. 27, $45-$75). And that’s just some of October’s lineup. November brings Tegan

and Sara (Nov. 11, $50.50-$76), Bob Dylan (Nov. 14, $75-$325), Erykah Badu (Nov. 18, $76-$126), St. Vincent (Nov. 27, $44-$149) and Morrissey (Nov. 30, $55-$75). “It’s a crazy schedule,” Hurwitz says. “I never thought it would be this full, to be honest with you.”

The Anthem and 9:30 Club will work together in concert. “People were very concerned about whether this would dilute the 9:30 or cannibalize shows,” Hurwitz says, but he claims that only a couple of shows on The Anthem’s schedule might have ended up at 9:30 Club otherwise. In other words, the club will still have a robust calendar. Plus, there’s a way the two venues can work together that he didn’t foresee. Next February, jam band Greensky Bluegrass will play one night at 9:30 Club and one night at The Anthem. “It makes the 9:30 date even more special,” Hurwitz says, “because it’s gonna be very hard to get a ticket to it now and that could end up being a really cool routine.”

Steinhilber’s installation “Untitled Polyrhythm.” Move up to the second floor to get a closer look (and keep looking up — you can see into the pool at The Channel, the apartment building above The Anthem). There’s also a balcony off the second level that sits above the marquee and offers expansive views of the water and beyond, especially in daylight. “I want them to feel escapism,” Hurwitz says of patrons. “I want them to go in and feel like the world goes away and this is magic.”

You can eat a chocolatecovered waffle. You’ll find seven bars on The Anthem’s three levels, and a coffee bar from Vigilante Coffee Company. For now, there’s a limited food menu that includes Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams, Red Apron hot dogs, bao buns, grilled sandwiches, a vegan hot dog and the Wharfie, a Belgian waffle with chocolate sauce. Bring your credit card: The bars, concessions and coat check are cashless.

It will only get better. There are attractions beyond the acts onstage. The first thing you’ll notice when you get to The Anthem is the big and bold marquee that changes colors and is visible from the Southwest waterfront. When you enter the lobby, look up and you’ll see cymbals hanging like chandeliers in D.C.-based artist Dan

Hurwitz knows that not everything is going to be perfect on day one, so he welcomes feedback. “We will be watching the whole process and tinkering and trying to make it as great as we can,” he says. “No matter how good it is on Oct. 12, it’s going to be better on Nov. 12.” RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS)

When it opens, Kith and Kin will serve this rib-eye with oxtail and bordelaise sauce.

The Wharf’s watering holes When the first phase of The Wharf opens Thursday, only a handful of restaurants and bars will be fully ready. More will open in the weeks ahead, so here’s what to get excited for. HOLLEY SIMMONS (TWP) The Brighton

949 Wharf St. SW

Brothers Eric and Ian Hilton bring their signature vintage touch to this indoor-outdoor bar with the help of antique lighting and furniture. “We had to take a new building and give it character,” Ian says. The spot, which will be open with limited food service on Thursday, will serve refined pub grub from chef Brendan L’Etoile (of Chez Billy), including chicken schnitzel, mussel pots and beer-battered fluke. The long drink list includes more than a dozen draft beers and gin-heavy cocktails for about $10.

Del Mar

791 Wharf St. SW

Just about every design detail that went into chef Fabio Trabocchi’s Spanish restaurant was imported from Spain. As the birthplace of his wife and business partner, Maria, the country is a frequent travel destination for them. Dishes hail mainly from Mallorca, although the menu will change often and reflect various regions. Expect seafood paellas with socarrat (crispy rice), gambas al ajillo (garlic shrimp) and cream-filled churros. For now, the restaurant will serve bites from Casa Luca, his Italian kitchen downtown. Del Mar is aiming to officially open the week of Oct. 23.

Requin

100 District Square SW

This modern French restaurant from celebrity chef Mike Isabella sits in the heart of The Wharf, occupying what looks like a glass box with 45-foot-high ceilings. Although Fairfax already has a location, the water-facing storefront at The Wharf will have a completely different menu. Led by executive chef Michael Rafidi, the kitchen will serve contemporary bistro food, like croissant-wrapped escargot topped with Chartreuse butter and bone marrow with Sichuan peppercorn jam and country toast. This weekend, Requin is serving a limited menu made exclusively for The Wharf opening, including burgers and steaks. The full menu will be available beginning Oct. 23.

Kith and Kin

801 Wharf St. SW

From 27-year-old wunderkind Kwame Onwuachi — formerly of “Top Chef” and Shaw Bijou — comes Kith and Kin, a restaurant within the InterContinental Hotel serving elevated Creole and Afro-Caribbean comfort food. Drawing from his mother’s recipes, Onwuachi will put a gourmet spin on such dishes as peel-and-eat shrimp, which have been sauteed in butter and mixed with white wine, orange juice and shrimp stock. The restaurant’s opening date was still up in the air as of Wednesday afternoon.

Cantina Bambina

Transit Pier

Cantina Marina, the beloved waterside bar that arrived in Southwest 15 years ago, won’t make it through The Wharf’s expansive gutting of the waterfront. While a new one is in the works for The Wharf’s second phase, you’ll soon be able to go to Cantina Marina lite. Cantina Bambina, a low-key waterside bar just above The Anthem’s box office and the water taxi transit pier, will be a perfect stop to grab a local beer or cocktail and look out over the water. But due to construction delays, you’ll have to wait a couple of weeks more to go there.

SADIE DINGFELDER | THE STAYCATIONER

Halloween is such a strange and wonderful holiday. We put masks on our kids and send them out to shake down the neighbors for candy. Then, instead of eating our vegetables, we carve scary faces into them and put them on the porch to slowly rot. My only complaint about Halloween is that it’s just one night. So when I saw Facebook ads for a month-long Halloween extravaganza called The Glow: A Jack O’Lantern Experience, I was already on board. My husband, Steve, on the other hand, had to be talked into it. “We’re paying $25 to drive to Reston at rush hour to see some carved pumpkins?” “It’s not just some carved pumpkins. It’s 5,000 carved pumpkins, lit up at night, around a lake,” I said. “Plus, The Post is paying for it.” That clinched it, so we headed to Lake Fairfax Park, and I immediately saw that I had been mistaken. I’d imagined the jack-o’-lanterns sitting on the shoreline, their flickering lights reflected in moonlit water. Instead, all 5,000 of them had been laid out in a boring old field. This was our first clue that The Glow, while long on pumpkins, would be short on imagination. We walked along a roped-off

pathway to the beginning of the display, which was marked with a heap of grinning jack-o’lanterns. Unfortunately, there was no flicker of life behind their eyes — and not just because they contained electric lights instead of candles. The problem was that they were all too perfect. Though handcarved, several of the pumpkins had identical faces, and the effect was unintentionally creepy. If your neighbor ever puts out a bunch of pumpkins that have been carved with this level of surgical precision, he’s definitely a serial killer and I recommend avoiding his house even if he’s handing out full-size candy bars. Continuing on the pathway, we passed several displays that reminded me of children’s birthday parties where the parents refused to pony up for official Disney-licensed decorations. For instance, there was a generic pirate area that clearly wanted to have a “Pirates of the Caribbean” theme, and a Christmas-meets-Halloween area that seemed designed to echo “The Nightmare Before Christmas,” from its long-limbed characters to the off-brand Danny Elfman music. There were some legit Disney characters on display, too, and this was a clear highlight for the kids at the event. “Moana!” I heard several children cheer when they saw the Polynesian heroine carved into a pumpkin. They didn’t

seem to mind that she was peeking out from the window of a medieval-style prop castle — a setting that works better with more typical Disney princesses. (Belle from “Beauty and the Beast” looked more at home on the castle display.) Though technically impressive, the whole spectacle left me feeling a little, well, hollow. Not once did I see an oddly shaped pumpkin transformed into something that took advantage of its gourd-y idiosyncrasies. Instead, the pumpkins were treated like identical blank canvases and inscribed with images so anodyne, they even bored children. “Look, honey, a dinosaur,” I overheard a woman say to her dozing toddler. “You love dinosaurs!” About midway through The Glow, there was one display that did provoke an emotional response from many visitors. It was a pumpkin carved with the likeness of our current president.

The Glow pro tip: Listen for funny quips near the presidential pumpkins. “They captured his skin tone perfectly,” one woman quipped. “I wish I had a rock,” another woman said. Her son then picked up a rock from the gravel-strewn path and handed it to her. I don’t know if he was calling her bluff or just being helpful, but he seemed disappointed when she put it down and moved on. The Trump pumpkin, which sits next to pumpkin portraits of our previous three presidents, was specially designed for D.C.’s The Glow event, a staff person later told me. Other than that, D.C.’s The Glow is pretty much identical to the Philadelphia and Nashville versions. And that, I think, is the problem.

The Glow is a homogenized experience, designed to be plunked down with equal success anywhere in the U.S. And it’s not even an original idea — several competing companies are producing similar events, including The Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular in Louisville, Ky., and Providence, R.I., and Rise of the Jack O’Lanterns in New York City and on Long Island. Now that I’ve been to one of these jack-o’-lantern spectacles, I find the whole trend disheartening. I appreciate the skill and effort that went into carving all those pumpkins, but they didn’t make me anywhere near as happy as a random street lit up with lopsided, homemade jack-o’-lanterns. Steve and I would have been happier if we’d skipped “The Glow” and hosted our own pumpkincarving extravaganza instead. It may be tempting to leave the sharp knives and goopy mess to the professionals, but it’s not nearly as much fun.

Q&A

Two girls (Valeria Cotto and Brooklynn Prince) have a rainbow connection in “The Florida Project.”

‘Florida Project’ director Sean Baker likes to leave room for inspiration FILM There wasn’t a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, but Sean Baker still saw dollar signs. “We were like, if we shot that, we’d save the production 50 grand,” says Baker, the director and a co-writer of “The Florida Project.” That sent him and his crew scrambling down the stairs of an Orlando motel and into a field to shoot a scene in which two girls (Brooklynn Prince and Valeria Cotto, both now 7) spot a rainbow and begin discussing the leprechaun that is certainly at its end. “It was going to be a CGI rainbow,” Baker says. But two weeks before the cast and crew were

scheduled to shoot the scene, “suddenly there’s everybody going, ‘There’s a rainbow over the motel!’ [It] takes 10 minutes to get the camera into an elevator and then down and dolly across the parking lot. We set it up, the thing is starting to fade, it’s fading, it’s fading, it’s fading, and when we got to it, it was like, ‘Roll, and GO.’ ” All that effort proves that Baker has kept some of the onthe-fly style that helped his previous film, 2015’s “Tangerine,” grab people’s attention and garner dozens of nominations and awards on the festival circuit. That film, which follows a transgender sex worker looking for her pimp (who is also her fiance) on Christmas Eve, was shot entirely on an iPhone. “The Florida Project,” about the summer adventures of a girl (Prince) living in an Orlando motel — managed

by the grizzled Bobby (Willem Dafoe) in the seedier, non-Disneyfied outskirts of town — was a more conventional shoot. The film, which opens locally Friday, “is as guerrilla as I can get working with a budget of a couple million and a union crew,” Baker says. But “we were dealing with little kids, we were dealing

with the hot summer sun of Orlando, and limited days. I asked for 60 days, I got 35. [So] we had to get pretty specific about what we were going to shoot, and have a schedule. At the same time, I always stressed to everybody that I may be inspired by something over there that’s not scheduled, and we’re going to have to break away.” Baker says that freedom is something he would miss if he moves on to movies with bigger budgets. “If I had my way, [shooting] would be 70 percent structured, 30 percent unstructured, so we would have happy accidents a lot,” he says. “It’s been harder and harder to do that, and if I want that to continue, I might have to drop my budgets and just tell people to go away.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

Chadwick Boseman takes on ‘Marshall’ “Marshall,” out Friday, is not about Thurgood Marshall, Supreme Court justice and lawyer who argued Brown v. Board of Education. It’s about Marshall as a young attorney arguing one of his earliest cases. Chadwick Boseman (“Get On Up”) plays the civil rights hero at the start of his career. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

How is this Marshall different from the one in the history books? It’s the man you don’t know, the man about town. You see what he’s giving up to go into hell and make people’s lives better. What enables him to do that? He’s willing to walk into the lion’s den — he’s upset when anyone else walks into the lion’s den, because he thinks, “I could have done it better.” He’s the guy who’s not afraid to take the free throws because he’s not afraid to miss. Did you worry about making sure that confidence doesn’t make him look like a jerk? One of the first things I was taught as an actor was “don’t judge the character.” If a character does something borderline a--hole, I’m not the one to judge. Whatever he’s chosen to do in the scene, he’s justified. I don’t have to worry about it.

TODAY: We really start to get that autumn feeling, as temperatures area-wide barely budge over the course of the day, remaining in the 60s. Unfortunately, this autumn appetizer doesn’t pair well with a picturesque scene, as we’ll be immersed in clouds and subject to occasional light showers or mist. Occasional showers tonight.

SEPARATIONS

Georgina Chapman splits from Harvey Weinstein Designer Georgina Chapman, Harvey Weinstein’s wife of 10 years, announced she’s leaving the film mogul after accusations of sexual abuse by him surfaced. “My heart breaks for all the women who have suffered tremendous pain because of these unforgivable actions,” she said in a statement. Weinstein said in a separate statement that he supports her decision. (EXPRESS)

A source revealed to Us Weekly that Bella Hadid’s 21st birthday party on Monday in New York City was “planned” and “paid for” by Drake. About 30 others were in attendance, including Travis Scott, Martin Garrix and Bella’s sister and mother, Gigi and Yolanda Hadid. On Tuesday’s “Watch What Happens Live,” host Andy Cohen asked Yolanda if Bella is dating Drake. “Are you kidding?” she responded. Cohen explained that Drake threw Bella’s birthday party. “He did? Really?” Yolanda asked. “Yes, you were there,” Cohen said. “I mean, they’re friends,” she replied. (EXPRESS)
