Elsewhere, First Lady Melania Trump’s audiobook is now available in Spanish, and a raccoon broke into a liquor store and helped himself to some free booze. Acclaimed actor Michael Shannon shares a preview of his performance alongside Russell Crowe in the new film “Nuremberg,” which depicts the dramatic trials where Nazis were prosecuted for crimes against humanity after WWII.
