While a timepiece that once belonged to the king of rock 'n' roll is guaranteed to be a high-profile crowd pleaser, whether you love watches or not, the other is an insider's watch: a steel timepiece that is appealing because the prestigious but lower-profile maker that created it does not usually use steel.

Cerrone's Afro Ep, due on February 12 on Because Music, features collaborations with Manu Dibango and Tony Allen and includes remixes by Mind Enterprises and garage legend Todd Edwards who here has taken the animated percussion and call-and-response flavor of Cerrone and Dibango's "Funk Makossa" and turned it into a four-on-the-floor club pleaser.

Whether you chafe at or thrill to outer expectations like deadlines or speed limits, or inner ones like New Year's resolutions or fitness goals, you might find yourself to be an Obliger or an Upholder (that is, a people pleaser or a hard-working Hermione type), a Rebel or a Questioner; Tendencies that are perhaps self-explanatory.

Louise, the protagonist, is a neurotic and self-deluded mess, a people pleaser who so craves the approval of those around her — and the seeming security of their lifestyles — that she resorts to desperate measures to keep the affection of her peers, lying to herself all the while that what she does, she does by necessity.

While the best picture field may still include intimate entries like "Roma," a black-and-white foreign-language film directed by Alfonso Cuarón (who won best director in 2014 for "Gravity"), you can also count on it to make room for "A Star Is Born," a big-studio crowd-pleaser starring Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga as singing megastars.

Well, first off, it seems to confirm our worst fear about Abrams and storytelling, the one I outlined in my initial non-spoiler review: He's a people-pleaser who wants to be all things to all fans, who likes to distract us with sound and fury, and doesn't really know how to wrap up a tale.

Yet while every club track cannot—and should not—be a chunky crowd pleaser like "One More Time," there's just something inherently fascinating about the potential in the boundary-crossing spirit of the record, of the filter-house French underground rising primed and activated out of the earth into pop music like some past alien civilisation's buried iron giant.

And as if being duped into a stint in an asylum wasn't scary enough, things take a turn for the worse when Sawyer makes the claim that her stalker, David Strine, has tricked his way into a job in the same facility, masquerading as a people-pleaser night shift orderly named George (Joshua Leonard), in a clear reference to Gaslight.

Pizza tends to be a crowd pleaser, and Aumm Aumm's superb Neapolitan-style pies, made with mostly fresh or imported ingredients and baked for just 90 seconds in a wood-burning oven, have kept the crowds coming ever since Massimo Delle Donne, a longtime food importer, encouraged his wife, Paula, to open the restaurant last November with their friend Davide Profeti.

Even with all the parachuting out of planes and blowing up of buildings and pounding artillery, and even with Kenneth "Rock" Merritt, 94, who parachuted into Normandy on D-Day and joined more than 100 other storied veterans of the division who marched by reviewing stands as the crowd watched tearfully, the 82nd still had one more crowd-pleaser ready to display.

Opposite this, the Morellet has teased up a few neon plumes into a tower of blue light, which here expresses a spiritual yearning to contrast with the earthy triple X. It is true that the material speaks to both the body and the soul; neon is a crowd pleaser and this show has something of the good cheer of the Blackpool seafront about it.

His track record shows that a director with a distinctive style who's given leeway by the studio to deviate from the norm can make a crowd-pleaser that brings in the big bucks at the box office and also lands critical accolades — whether it's by reimagining comic book movies as political commentary (in the Dark Knight trilogy), sci-fi as quasi-post-apocalyptic family drama (Interstellar), or detective noir as psychological drama (Insomnia, Memento).
