The second hour, in which Getty's fixer, James Fletcher Chace (a magnificent Brendan Fraser), heads to Italy to try to make sense of a kidnapping he thinks might be staged, has some of the shaggy charm of Harold and Maude director Hal Ashby's work, with occasional winks to the camera from Fraser and the kind of darkly comedic tone Ashby excelled at.

It's fascinating to see this idea pop up in an episode that nods and winks toward Lost, because that show's Desmond (introduced in its own "daily routine of a guy stuck in a hole" sequence) also eventually became unstuck in time, but the show was incredibly careful to explain how his time skipping worked and to what point in time he traveled.

The show's centerpieces are the vibrant paintings of artists in their studios working with models or on self-portraits, of men and women getting done up and going out, of families and friends playing in parks — subjects that are familiar from art history, but that Marshall complicates and enriches with layers of contemporary details, winks to history, and black bodies.

So when it came to joining in for a remix of Anuel AA's "Quiere Beber," one of this summer's big hits, Romeo studied the turf — lush, pillowy reggaeton-lite production; a vocal pattern that congeals like taffy — and arrived with an arresting stream-of-consciousness flow full of bright spots and winks, for a performance that's smooth as whole milk.

It's not unusual for superhero movies to feel like they're serving multiple masters, but "Shazam!" juggles more than most -- offering knowing winks at an audience well-versed in comic-book lore (Fawcett, the original publisher of Captain Marvel, even receives a sly acknowledgement), delivering action and still having young Billy learn Disney Channel-style lessons about family through his confusing adventure.

Other times, they serve as little winks from Marvel to its biggest fans, or call back to the company's history (see: Howard the Duck dropping by at the end of the first Guardians of the Galaxy, or Captain America musing on the virtue of patience at the end of Spider-Man: Homecoming with the implication that post-credits scenes won't always feature big reveals).

One might have wished for a slightly less heavy-handed storyline, one that offered a bit less "closure," but there's no gainsaying the power of the film's last image: an empty notebook page that winks out at us, alluring as the green light at the end of Daisy's dock in The Great Gatsby, suggestive of all the voices that have not yet had their say.

Other times, they serve as little winks from Marvel to its biggest fans, or callback to the company's history (see: Howard the Duck dropping by at the end of the first Guardians of the Galaxy, or Captain America musing on the virtue of patience at the end of Spider-Man: Homecoming as if to imply that post-credits scenes won't always feature big reveals).

It feels like four or five different movies happening at once, not to mention that it playfully winks at legendary films like Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom (via Arthur's hunt for the trident), the Lord of the Rings trilogy (the trident), The Sword in the Stone (also the trident), and perhaps unintentionally Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again (at one point, Arthur and Mera find themselves in a coastal Mediterranean town, and can't stop love from happening).

" In this way, an already uplifting song takes on a wonderful second meaning—a celebration of the joy of best-friendship, of the pricelessness of catching another person at their most candid: Gavin winks at the camera, holding a radiant bouquet of sunflowers from London's Columbia Road Flower Market ("It's one of the most gorgeous places in the city," she says); Maskin and McPherson rock out, playing air guitar: "Katie was filming us [playing air guitar]," Maskin says," And was like, 'Do it!

Instead, he attempted the magic act of making memeability translate to network television, and he more or less pulled it off, relying on an intricate rotating set where each door led to another layer of winks and smirks: BTS, underutilized but still electric, did its "(Seoul Town Road Remix)"; Mason Ramsey and Billy Ray Cyrus kept their SEO alive; and Diplo pretended to play a banjo, adding about as much as he did to the success of "Old Town Road" in the first place.

A. R. Ammons shows up for a reading in Virginia but refuses to read, telling his audience, "You can't possibly be enjoying this"; Seamus Heaney winks before stepping into a cab in Chicago; Donald Hall orders a burger for lunch, then confides to Wiman, who was then 38: "I was 38 when I realized not a word I wrote was going to last"; Mary Oliver picks up a dead pigeon from the sidewalk, tucks the bloody carcass into her pocket and keeps it there through an event and after-party.

People are not safe from the predatory drug gangs on one side of the US/Mexico border and predatory militias on the other; they are not safe in the Deep South from those who will now enjoy an administration that winks at the white nationalist awakening; people are also not safe from the mega-storms that will arrive before long as we roll back environmental regulation; and people are not safe from the rising rents and debts pushing low-income families, people of color, working folks, and artists out of the cities that are supposed to be safe zones for progressive values.
