Kishida, 64, lagged in public opinion polls but had the backing of conservatives in the governing Liberal Democratic Party.

After an 18-month delay because of the pandemic, the movie, “No Time to Die,” the 25th episode in the venerable franchise, finds its hero in a somber mood. Mortality looms over the quips and car chases, and the film is uncommonly preoccupied with memory and leave-taking. Gone is the defiance of every kind of gravity that was a hallmark of the series. “I’ll say that if ‘No Time to Die’ were 90 minutes long, it might be worth yours,” writes A.O.

One of the earliest stories of kite flying dates back to the Han dynasty about two millenniums ago, when a general sent a square-shaped assemblage of bamboo and cloth into the air. By the 1700s, flying kites became a popular pastime for children in Europe. From there, kites traveled to North America, where they helped pave the way for the Wright brothers’ airplane. Now, a new generation of artists is taking their creation to new heights. In Kärnten, Austria, one artist uses bamboo-and-paper creations that are designed to resemble “things that shouldn’t be flown on a kite,” like meteors; a Brooklyn-based artist makes kites into ships and broad-winged cranes; another in Japan is known for his fantastical Edo-style hand-painted designs.
