Satellite Island Rent out this lushly forested 76-acre island and you get everything — the three-bedroom main house, with its squishy sofas and wood-burning stove, decorated in cream-hued linens and with branches of coral; the two-bedroom boat house, perched on the dock overlooking the bay; and the canvas tepee sheltering a queen-size bed — all to yourself.

Haemimont's earlier Tropico games suffered from some of these problems as well, but they were better-masked by the lushly gorgeous islands where those games took place, and the buoyant atmosphere of life in a dictatorial tropical paradise (even if that atmosphere was produced by indulging in a lot of stereotypes and gags about exploiting "banana republics" and the people who live in them).

In addition to these two weighty books, Matthijs Ilsink and Jos Koldeweij, the leaders of the Bosch project and curators of the Noordbrabants Museum exhibition "Hieronymus Bosch: Visions of Genius" (which closed in May), have also authored a show catalog of the same name, which is much easier to carry and lushly illustrated with descriptions of the works in accessible — if a bit lackluster — reader-friendly prose.

Courtesy Whitney Museum of American Art The show is divided into seven parts, a constellation that includes a hundred-and-four-foot-long collection of vintage postcards of Niagara Falls; color shots of vanishing mom-and-pop shops, printed in the now obsolete dye-transfer process; and a subversively entertaining archive of photographs of Fae Richards, a black lesbian actress from the nineteen-thirties, which is so lushly convincing you'll be shocked to learn it's a fiction.

What it's about: Roma was one of the 2019 Oscars' two most-nominated films, with a total of 10 nominations; it's a lushly shot, monochromatic domestic drama from Oscar-winning director Alfonso Cuarón (Gravity, Children of Men) that tells the story of a family living in Mexico City in the early 1970s, and a girl named Cleo (played by newcomer Yalitza Aparicio, in a stunning turn that also earned her an Oscar nomination for Lead Actress) who works for them.

"Heaven's Gate", "the real West, not the fake West", required an even higher pitch of perfection, including the restoration of a buggy at workshops in three states; the building of an irrigation system under a wide area of prairie to make it lushly green for the climactic battle scene; the training of the cast in rifle-shooting, horse-riding, roller-skating and Slavic accents, and the demolition of a street in order to rebuild it a mere six feet wider.

At David Geffen Hall through Saturday, they're playing Zhao Lin's double concerto "A Happy Excursion," which had its American premiere on Wednesday with the New York Philharmonic under the direction of Long Yu. (And how refreshing to hear a work by a Chinese composer outside the Philharmonic's annual Lunar New Year concert.) Mr. Lin's crowd-pleasing concerto begins with a blossoming soundscape that gives way to increasing bustle and, eventually, a lushly cinematic swell that reaches its climax with brass fanfare and crashing cymbals.
