UK locks down city of Leicester; wearing masks to be mandatory in Kansas; Iran reports record daily deaths. Follow the latest news

Governor Andrew Cuomo of New York on Monday called on Donald Trump to “put a mask on it” and sign an executive order requiring people to wear face coverings in public. Cuomo told the president, who has consistently refused to wear a mask in public, to “lead by example” and wear one himself to stop the surge in new coronavirus cases.

“We did it two months ago in this state,” said Cuomo, adding that other states that initially resisted mask mandates were now requiring them, despite some backlash.

The British government on Monday imposed a lockdown on the city of Leicester, which has a much higher Covid-19 infection rate than anywhere else in the country, in its first major attempt to curb an outbreak with local rather than national measures.

The United Kingdom is in the process of gradually easing its national lockdown, with non-essential shops now open and further relaxation of rules due on 4 July, but Leicester and the surrounding area were told to go into reverse.

Even quarantine fatigue feels old now, the restlessness being replaced with a shrug. Whether you live in an area that is reopening or one that is experiencing a new surge of cases, our critics can help. Here’s what to read, listen to, and watch this weekend.

NETFLIX / THE ATLANTIC

Watch

That this summer’s first big movie is a terrible, Fifty Shades of Grey-style Polish film speaks perfectly to this moment.

My colleague Hannah Giorgis explains: “The film is a strange snapshot of the bizarre forces shaping culture consumption now: Netflix’s algorithmic cunning, people’s general antsiness during the pandemic—and, of course, the specific disappointment of missing out on warm-weather flings.”

Our critics also reviewed:

Meanwhile, our Hollywood-based staff writer Shirley Li asks a fascinating question: Will sex scenes survive the pandemic?

Listen

It’s been two decades since Bruce Springsteen wrote “American Skin (41 Shots),” a song about the killing of a black man by police. Now, Springsteen reflects on this moment in American history—and offers his playlist for the Trump era. (Listen on Spotify.)

This year may feel a little like a Bob Dylan song, my colleague Spencer Kornhaber writes—“which is why it’s nice that Dylan has given us a new album to tangle with.” Stream it on Spotify while reading Spencer’s review.

If you find yourself alone for portions of this weekend, perk up with our playlist for solo partying (on Spotify here).

Kevin Kwan, the author of Crazy Rich Asians, is set to release his next book later this month. Read our new profile of the author.
