Phaedra Parks, a lawyer turned reality star turned mortician turned reality star, has become the surprise fan favorite of the second season of Peacock’s dastardly game of deception The Traitors. Well, it’s only a surprise to those who didn’t watch her for years on Bravo’s Real Housewives of Atlanta and Married to Medicine.

Around the halfway point of Todd Haynes’s May December, Natalie Portman’s Elizabeth — a television actress with a Juilliard education, tasked with bringing to life a decades-old scandal for a movie — visits the local high school to talk acting with the theater class there. As she walks through the halls of the school, we experience the first evidence of Elizabeth’s fame: students turning to gawk at her.
