The season 6 premiere of "Rick and Morty," "Solaricks," is one of those rarer episodes. It resolves the cliffhanger that ended season 5 fairly quickly. In a send-up of "Avengers: Infinity War," Rick and Morty are rescued from the destroyed Council of Ricks citadel by Space Beth, the galaxy-traveling clone (or not) of Beth Smith. Once they get home, Rick has to reset his portal gun navigation but winds up sending its users to their original universes.
Building on his backstory from the season 5 finale, Rick goes to the universe where his wife Diane and his original Beth were killed; a virtual recreation of Diane's voice passive-aggressively taunts him. Jerry, who it turns out was swapped at the daycare in season 2's "Mortynight Run," goes to a universe where he and Beth never separated. Morty goes to the show's original "main" universe, the one which was left in ruin at the end of season 1's midpoint,...

Ben Barenholtz, the producer-distributor who helped launch the careers of David Lynch and the Coen Brothers, died on Wednesday in Prague at the age of 83.
Barenholtz is credited with pioneering the concept of the “midnight movie” by screening subversive, future cult classics like John Waters’ “Pink Flamingos” and Alejandro Jodorowsky’s “El Topo,” the latter of which Barenholtz decided to screen at the (now defunct) Elgin Theater in New York City after attending the private screening of it at the Museum of Modern Art. That screening is seen as essential by film historians to helping the film find a wider audience and gain a legacy as one of Jodorowsky’s most famous works.
During World War II, Barenholtz escaped the Nazi concentration camps at the age of eight by living in the woods of Poland with 11 other escapees, losing his father during the war. Barenholtz kept his past a secret...
