“As a Latin American actress, I feel like I’ve often made myself smaller,” the “Hit Man” star Adria Arjona said. “Like, ‘I’m so lucky to be here.’” The director Richard Linklater “made me feel like, ‘Don’t make yourself smaller, you’re so much bigger.’” nyti.ms/4cdO85U

Chita Rivera, who died on Tuesday at 91, was a Broadway star as long as anyone, starring in iconic roles like Velma in "Chicago" and the original Anita in "West Side Story." For our critic, her voice remains indelible. nyti.ms/3OpaJTT

Colman marks the first Afro-Latino nominated for best actor and the second openly gay man to earn a nomination for playing a gay character. This is a reminder that our storytelling must be as diverse as our racial and ethnic makeup. Congrats, Colman!
