The staff of Los Angeles Times won a Pulitzer Prize on Monday for its stories that uncovered recordings in which City Council members made racist remarks.
The recordings last year set off a furor at City Hall, leading to the resignation of City Council President Nury Martinez and other civic officials.
The Times‘ Christina House also won a Pulitzer for feature photography for images of a pregnant 22-year-old living on the street.
The Times‘ exposé on the City Council members conversation won in the breaking news category, beating two other finalists: Josh Gerstein, Alex Ward, Peter S. Canellos.

My Opioid Teacher: Garcia Tackles Addiction in Hokey Reunion with Close
Films dealing with drug addiction may have evolved considering the changing landscape of substance abuse, but a historical pratfall has often included an aura of emotional exploitation, particularly in examples from well-heeled sources. Rodrigo Garcia throws his hat into the ring with his latest feature, Four Good Days, co-written by Eli Saslow and headlined by Glenn Close, who assisted in bolstering the director’s repute in early films like Things You Can Tell Just by Looking at Her (2000) and Nine Lives (2005).

“Four Good Days” is a hideously overwrought slice of the life of an addict, and her codependent mother, from the opening frames of Mila Kunis gleaning her toothless, rotten gums after showing up unannounced and shaking on Glenn Close’s doorstep, to a climactic meltdown involving Kunis screaming “I need your pee!” to a paralyzed, enabling Close. The fact that this emerged from a harrowing, true-life Washington Post article by co-screenwriter Eli Saslow can’t disguise the over-the-top elements of the movie (from Close’s bizarre wig to Kunis’ twitchy performance) that feel ripped from fiction and ooze obvious staginess, the feint of actorly transformation.
And what of the disappointing fact that it was directed by Rodrigo García, a master chronicler of interior lives, from “In Treatment” to “Nine Lives”? Despite Close’s valiant efforts, .

Mila Kunis and Glenn Close Seek Four Good Days in First Trailer for Rodrigo García’s Addiction Drama
In the midst of an awards season run playing a mother trying to save her daughter from drug addiction in Hillbilly Elegy, Glenn Close traversed similar territory in a film that premiered at last year’s Sundance Film Festival and will finally now arrive.
Four Good Days, directed by previous Close collaborator Rodrigo García (Albert Nobbs), stars the eight-time Oscar nominee as Deb, the mom of Mila Kunis’ Molly who is in the throes of addiction. When a substance abuse treatment requires Molly to be four days clean, Deb must do everything in her power to keep Molly drug-free while working on their broken relationship. Based on a Washington Post article by Eli Saslow, who co-wrote the film with Garcia, the first trailer has landed ahead of a spring release.

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are making the most of some child-free time at the Sundance Film Festival.
The couple was photographed sitting together at the premiere of Kunis’ new film, Four Good Days, at the Eccles Center Theatre in Park, City Utah on Sunday.
The two — who tied the knot in 2015 and share two children: daughter Wyatt Isabelle, 5, and son Dimitri Portwood, 3 — intertwined their arms together as they watched the film.
The actors kept their date style casual with Ashton, 41, donning a white T-shirt with a scarf while Kunis, 36, wearing a black, long-sleeve top with dark jeans and gold jewelry.

The front door cracks open and the image is jarring. There stands Mila Kunis, her hair bleached, her face and arms scarred, her skin a sickly yellow, her mouth missing its top row of teeth. As Molly, a 31-year-old drug addict, all she wants is another chance. And there stands Glenn Close, peering around the lock, terrified of who is standing on her porch. As Deb, the mother of this drug addict, all she wants is for her daughter to get clean. On this particular afternoon, that means shutting her out. Thus begins Four Good Days, a tired and trialed tale of drug addiction, and the devastating decisions made to conquer it.
Addiction, especially in today’s climate, remains a pressing and persistent societal ill, and also an enticing subgenre for filmmakers to tackle. The basic structure of these movies, however, relies primarily on two outcomes—victims will get sober and change their life,...

Oscar-nominated and Golden Globe-winning actress Glenn Close and Golden Globe-nominated actress Mila Kunis are set to star as mother and daughter in the drama Four Good Days.
The film will chronicle Deb (Close), who is trying to support her daughter Molly (Kunis) through “four crucial days on Molly’s road to recovery from substance abuse. Their time together after a long estrangement revives both the painful wounds they have inflicted on each other, but also offers the opportunity to rekindle their fundamental, complicated, love for one another.”
This sounds like it will be heavy. We saw a couple of similar films in last years award season, but each were stories about sons, so it will be interesting to see this dynamic. Rodrigo Garcia (Albert Nobbs) will direct from a script he co-wrote with Eli Saslow, the Washington Post journalist and 2014 Pulitzer Prize winner, based on a story he wrote for the Washington Post.
