I LEARNED THE HARD WAY, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings

They don’t make quality soul music like this anymore. Well, ­actually they do. And by ”they,” we mean Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings. On this new album, Jones and her brassy backing band take us on a trip to the grooviest parts of the ’70s.

SAWYER’S ”SON OF A BITCH” Video

Lost‘s bad boy has one of the most versatile catchphrases on TV. This Web clip helpfully collects six ­seasons’ worth of Sawyer swearing in wonder, confusion, joy, and, of course, all-out murderous rage.

Italian director Marco Bellocchio’s moving film (not rated) about the fate of Mussolini’s first wife combines painful history with raw emotions, and ends up with a tale as dark as the Blackshirts. (Available in theaters and via on demand.)
