12 Angry Men (1957)

Widely regarded as one of the greatest films of all time, *12 Angry Men* hardly needs an introduction. Yet, it's remarkable how relevant this courtroom drama remains in its portrayal of debate, confirmation bias, and morality. The film takes place almost entirely in one location, a jury deliberation room, where 12 jurors must decide on a verdict in a case involving an 18-year-old accused of murdering his father. While 11 of the 12 men come to a quick agreement on the teen's guilt, Juror 8 (Henry Fonda) isn't so sure, leading to a riveting debate enhanced by director Sidney Lumet's genius camerawork. —*Kevin Jacobsen*

Another Round (2020)

Henrik Ohsten/Samuel Goldwyn Films

We've seen numerous movies explore male midlife crises, but this Oscar-winning dramedy from writer-director Thomas Vinterberg provides a fresh perspective. The Danish film follows four teacher friends who add flavor to their listless lives with an odd experiment: try to maintain a blood alcohol level of 0.05 percent at all times for maximum creativity and relaxation. While the colleagues commit to the same drinking schedule, the results vary as one of them develops a troubling addiction. EW's critic calls *Another Round* "an intoxicated tale of midlife angst and catharsis," anchored by Mads Mikkelsen in one of his best performances. —*K.J.*

The Babadook (2014)

Essie Davis as Amelia Vanek and Noah Wiseman as Samuel Vanek in 'The Babadook'. Everett Collection

"If it's in a word, or it's in a look, you can't get rid of the Babadook." This chilling rhyme, read from a pop-up book called Mister Babadook, could also apply to our feelings on the film itself. It's hard to forget Jennifer Kent's feature directorial debut, which explores a widow's grief as she struggles to raise her son — while also contending with a mysterious humanoid monster that insists on tormenting them.

Critics were rapturous in their praise for *The Babadook*, with special mentions for its layered portrayal of horror and grief, as well as Essie Davis' central performance. As EW's critic writes, "In an age when horror movies have mostly become lazy and toothless, here's one with ambition and bite." As if that weren't enough, let's not ignore the fact that Babadook himself has reached gay icon status. —*K.J.*

Blue Valentine (2010)

There's depressing cinema, and then there's *Blue Valentine*, a bleak yet powerfully performed drama about the highs and lows of a marriage. Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams star as Dean and Cindy, a couple raising their young daughter in New York while trying to reconcile their fractured relationship. Flashbacks to their courtship reveal the magnetic romantic charge that brought them together, while also demonstrating how that intensity would ultimately curdle into acrimony. As EW's critic writes, "*Blue Valentine* is lushly touching and gorgeously told. By the time the film is over, you may feel that you know every inch of these lives." —*K.J.*

Boiling Point (2021)

Stephen Graham as Andy Jones in 'Boiling Point'.

Saban Films/Courtesy Everett Collection

The 2025 British series *Adolescence* has wowed critics and audiences with its conceit of each episode comprising a single take, but star Stephen Graham was already quite familiar with this approach thanks to *Boiling Point*. This anxiety-riddled drama is set in an upscale restaurant, as head chef Andy Jones (Graham) juggles various personal and professional responsibilities — including a devastating audit — over the course of a chaotic night. The use of only one take makes for a highly immersive experience that will resonate with anyone who's ever had a particularly bad day at work. —*K.J.*

Charade (1963)

Walter Matthau as Carson Dyle and Audrey Hepburn as Reggie Lampert in 'Charade'.

This genre-bending classic pairs two of the most charismatic stars of their era, Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant, in a twisty thrill ride. Hepburn plays Reggie, an American in Paris who learns her husband has been murdered. What follows is a complex web of mistrust and deception as she discovers he was involved in a shady business deal, and a group of criminals is after his money. And can she rely on the fellow American (Grant) she just met, who wants to help her? *Charade* raises the question of who Reggie can trust, but also who the audience should as well. —*K.J.*

Coffy (1973)

Pam Grier as Nurse Flower Child 'Coffy' Coffin and Robert DoQui as King George in 'Coffy'. Everett Collection

Pam Grier became a cinematic icon with her badass performance in this cult favorite from the Blaxploitation era. The actress plays Flower Child Coffin, a.k.a. Coffy, an ER nurse who becomes a vigilante to take revenge on the men who got her young sister hooked on heroin. After succeeding in her mission, Coffy continues to use her particular set of skills by targeting other dangerous men in her community, kicking butt and taking names along the way. It's an electrifying star turn and a fun time capsule for the early '70s. —*K.J.*

**Director:** Jack Hill

**Cast:** Pam Grier, Booker Bradshaw, Sid Haig, Lisa Farringer, Robert DoQui

Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999)

Some films take their time to become classics. This dark comedy mockumentary about the cutthroat world of beauty pageants had a mixed reception from critics in 1999, but its razor-sharp satire has helped it age like fine wine. Set in a small Minnesota town, the film follows a group of teen girls (and their mothers) as they do whatever it takes for a chance to compete in the national Sarah Rose Cosmetics American Teen Princess Pageant. And let's just say the title *Drop Dead Gorgeous* is a hint of just how competitive things become. —*K.J.*

This genre-bending documentary tells the harrowing story of an Afghan man who has fled his home country. He uses the alias "Amin Nawabi" to protect his identity, while the film utilizes lyrical animation to depict his perilous journey from Afghanistan to Denmark as he tries to avoid authorities. *Flee* is a riveting story of resilience that also made history as the first movie to earn simultaneous Oscar nominations for Best Animated Feature, Best Documentary Feature, and Best International Feature Film. —*K.J.*

Heathers (1989)

Winona Ryder as Veronica Sawyer, Kim Walker as Heather Chandler, Lisanne Falk as Heather McNamara, and Shannen Doherty as Heather Duke in 'Heathers'.

New World Pictures/Courtesy Everett Collection

The OG razor-sharp teen comedy,* **Heathers** *is the poisoned apple tree from which films like *Clueless* (1995), *Jawbreaker *(1999), and *Mean Girls* (2004) would later blossom. Winona Ryder stars as Veronica, one of the popular girls at a suburban high school where suicide has suddenly become the hottest new fad. Originally a box-office flop, this 1987 comedy has since become a completely quotable cult classic. —*Katie Rife*

It Happened One Night (1934)

If you want to trace back the winning formula for a romantic comedy to one film, look no further than *It Happened One Night*. This classic centers on Ellie (Claudette Colbert), a pampered heiress who defies her father's riches by eloping with a pilot who's only after her money. Hitching a Greyhound to reunite with her husband, she meets Peter (Clark Gable), a newspaper reporter looking for a scoop, and the pair soon develop feelings for each other.**** Filled with memorable sequences (Ellie's iconic leg display to attract a ride while hitchhiking; Peter going bare-chested), *It Happened One Night* is a masterpiece of its genre, winning the "Big Five" Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Screenplay. —*K.J.*

Marjoe (1972)

This Oscar-winning documentary was decades ahead of its time, bravely exposing the manipulation tactics used by religious leaders. Centering on the charismatic Marjoe Gortner, the film chronicles his early life as a child preacher and his eventual disillusionment in adulthood when he returned to the revivalist circuit. "Part of what makes *Marjoe* such a knockout of a movie is not knowing exactly how to feel about it when its end credits come up," writes EW's critic. "And when was the last time a movie made you feel something as complicated as that?" —*K.J.*

Memento (2001)

Danny Rothenberg/Newmarket

Oscar-winning director Christopher Nolan burst onto the scene with his intricate, intellectual style already fully developed in *Memento*, his second feature film. Guy Pearce stars as Leonard, a broken man out for revenge for the murder of his wife — a mission that's made more difficult by the fact that he has an untreatable condition that resets his short-term memory every 15 minutes. "*Memento* has a spooky repetitive urgency that takes on the clarity of a dream," writes EW's critic. "It's like an Oliver Sacks case study played as malevolent film noir." —*K.R.*

Long unavailable on official streaming services, the cult classic *Oldboy* was remastered for its 20th anniversary and is now on Tubi — where unsuspecting viewers will be met with Park Chan-wook's warped yet masterful storytelling. Businessman Oh Dae-su (Choi Min-sik) is kidnapped for unknown reasons and confined to a hotel room for 15 years. Finally released, he sets out on a dangerous path of revenge against his captors, one that's filled with bloody violence, body horror, and a sickening twist that may just leave you speechless.

As EW's critic quips, "The filmmaker who can dream such creepfest fantasies is the man to whom Quentin Tarantino, a declared Park Chan-wook admirer, can tip his Kangol cap in awe." —*K.J.*

Paris, Texas (1984)

Director Wim Wenders won the top prize at the 1984 Cannes Film Festival for this elegiac roadtrip drama. Character actor Harry Dean Stanton stars as Travis, a quiet man who reunites with his brother and son after years apart. Seeking redemption, he brings his son along on a trip to find his wife (Nastassja Kinski) as the mystery behind his estrangement is subtly revealed. Tapping into poignant themes of trauma and absolution, *Paris, Texas* is one of the defining American masterpieces of the '80s. —*K.J.*

Party Girl (1995)

Guillermo Díaz as Leo, Parker Posey as Mary, and Anthony DeSando as Derrick in 'Party Girl'.

First Look Pictures/Everett

With the renewed appreciation of Parker Posey thanks to her scene-stealing role in season 3 of *The White Lotus*, there's no better time to go back and watch her breakthrough performance in this quirky '90s comedy. Posey stars as Mary, a young, carefree woman who frequents the New York City nightlife. After her godmother bails her out of jail, Mary begrudgingly takes a job as a librarian to get the money to pay her back, which helps her grow as a person. It's easy to see why Posey would become an indie darling after *Party Girl*'s release; her winning yet eccentric screen presence is already evident, and the role allows her to display her full comedic and dramatic range. —*K.J.*

Point Break (1991)

Kathryn Bigelow's classic tale of male friendship has only gotten better with age. While initially receiving a mixed reception upon its 1991 release, *Point Break* crackles with the chemistry between FBI Agent Johnny Utah (Keanu Reeves) and surf-loving gang leader Bodhi (Patrick Swayze). As Johnny goes undercover with Bodhi and his crew, he soon develops an appreciation of their lifestyle, complicating matters as his superiors want him to bust the gang. "Reeves is an aloof but worthy adversary, and Swayze is the hardened zen master," EW's critic writes, "but their serious performances still ground an otherwise ridiculous premise." —*K.J.*

Secretary (2002)

This BDSM-themed rom-com stars Maggie Gyllenhaal as Lee, an emotionally unbalanced young woman who finds her purpose when she takes a job as a secretary for Mr. Grey (James Spader), a strict and demanding attorney. What starts as sexual tension soon turns into an elaborate, kinky role-playing game that consumes both boss and assistant. Could true love be far behind? —*K.R.*

Destin Daniel Cretton's acclaimed indie drama is among the most significant launching pads for future 21st-century movie stars. The film, about the residents and staff of a group home for troubled teenagers, marked the feature debuts of LaKeith Stanfield (2018's *Sorry to Bother You*) and Stephanie Beatriz (*Brooklyn Nine-Nine*), as well as early roles for Kaitlyn Dever (2019's *Booksmart*) and Rami Malek (2018's *Bohemian Rhapsody, Mr. Robot*).

Titane (2021)

You've (probably) never seen anything like *Titane*, Julia Ducournau's body horror thriller that miraculously won the top prize at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival. The film centers on Alexia (Agathe Rousselle), a woman who was in a car accident as a child that led to a titanium plate being implanted in her head. Years later, Alexia has become a serial killer with a highly sexual obsession with motor vehicles, leading her down an increasingly dangerous path. Ducournau's audacious commitment to her vision is refreshing in its lack of compromise; as EW's critic writes, she "forges something sensational from nerve and pure metal, and makes it new." —*K.J.*

Tokyo Sonata (2008)

Kyoko Koizumi as Megumi Sasaki and Kōji Yakusho as the Robber in 'Tokyo Sonata'.

The everyday struggles of an ordinary Tokyo family are woven together with a sometimes uncomfortable honesty in this affecting psychological drama from Kiyoshi Kurosawa. A father grapples with the loss of his job; his wife lives an unsatisfying existence as a housewife; their eldest son leaves home to join the U.S. military; their youngest son secretly takes piano lessons against his father's wishes. All must go on a journey of self-discovery to find their place in the world, with Kurosawa exploring each character's inner conflict with bracing realism before deftly shifting into something more expressionistic as he pushes them out of their comfort zones. —*K.J.*

Richard Jenkins gives the performance of a lifetime in this small, unassuming drama as an economics professor who discovers an immigrant couple (Haaz Sleiman and Danai Gurira) squatting in his little-used NYC apartment. Rather than evicting them, he befriends them, bearing witness to the harsh inequalities of post-9/11 America when one of them is arrested and detained on immigration charges. What follows is a touching drama anchored by its Oscar-nominated leading man. —*K.R.*

The Worst Person in the World (2021)

Renate Reinsve as Julie in 'The Worst Person in the World'. Sundance Institute

*The Worst Person in the World* plays like one of those great romantic comedies that start off charming, only to sneak up on you with the emotional weight and authenticity of its depiction of modern relationships by its conclusion. The Norwegian film unfolds through 12 chapters of med student Julie's (Renate Reinsve) life as she tries to figure out what she wants, falling in and out of love. Her relationship with a comic artist 15 years her senior leaves an indelible mark on her life.

Joachim Trier's film may be classified as a rom-com (with admittedly heavy dramatic undertones), but it deftly plays with tropes of the genre to provide a fresh experience for the audience. EW's critic writes, "It vibrates with real life, a film so fresh and untethered to rom-com cliché it might actually reshape the idea of what movies like this can be." —*K.J.*

It's time to head back into the OASIS.

*Ready Player One* and *Ready Player Two*, author Ernest Cline's *New York Times* best-selling books, will get their very first graphic novel adaptations, ** can exclusively reveal.

Ten Speed Graphic will publish *Ready Player One: The Graphic Novel*, an adaptation of Cline's 2011 flagship novel, later this year with a Target-exclusive hardcover on Oct. 6 in the U.S. The trade and deluxe hardcover editions will then release simultaneously wherever books are sold on March 2, 2027.

The release will be different in the United Kingdom and Canada, where the graphic novel will be available through all major retailers this Oct. 6 through Del Rey and Penguin Random House U.K.

"It's been an absolute joy working with the team at Ten Speed Graphic, and I couldn't be more excited to see *Ready Player One* take on a whole new life as a graphic novel," Cline tells EW in a statement. "From the very beginning, this story has been the thrill of stepping into another world, and Meredith Laxton's stunning artwork adds a whole new dimension to the adventure. This adaptation captures the heart, humor, and high-stakes fun of Wade's journey in ways that even longtime fans will find surprising. I also think it will allow new readers to experience the magic of *Ready Player One* for the first time. I can't wait for fans — both new and old — to see the world of OASIS come alive in a bold new way."

The story of *Ready Player One* is set in a dystopia in the year 2045. The depletion of fossil fuels and the ripple effects of pollution, global warming, and overpopulation turned the world into an ugly place. The only means of escape is the virtual-reality world of the OASIS, where most of humanity spends their days. Wade Watts, our lead character, is one such person.

Upon his death, the creator of the OASIS leaves behind a series of puzzles, based on the pop culture of the previous decades, that will lead to a hidden Easter egg. Whoever is first to solve the puzzles will inherit his fortune and control the OASIS itself. When Wade cracks the first clue, he becomes an immediate target of those who also seek the grand prize.

The story was notably adapted into Steven Spielberg's 2018 *Ready Player One* movie from Warner Bros. Pictures. Tye Sheridan starred as Wade alongside a cast featuring Olivia Cooke (*House of the Dragon*), Mark Rylance (*Bridge of Spies*), and Ben Mendelsohn (*Rogue One: A Star Wars Story*).

"From the very beginning, our goal was to honor the spirit of *Ready Player One* while fully embracing what the graphic novel format does best," said Aaron Wehner, Executive Vice President and Director of Business Development for the Crown Publishing Group, and Publisher of Clarkson Potter and Ten Speed Press. "This adaptation brings the scale, emotion, and immersive detail of the OASIS vividly to the page, offering longtime fans a fresh way into the story and inviting new readers to discover it for the first time."

Hailee Steinfeld is a mom!

The actress and her husband, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, have welcomed their first child together, a baby girl, she announced Thursday on her Substack newsletter Beau Society.

"Special delivery... Our baby girl has arrived!!" Steinfeld, 29, wrote. "We're feeling incredibly grateful and blessed and savouring [*sic*] these early moments. Thank you so much for the love and well wishes."

No other details were released.

The couple first shared the news they were going to be parents in a sweet video in December. In the clip, jointly posted to their Instagram accounts, the NFL player could be seen kissing the *Sinners* star's bare belly. The two were bundled up in the snowy clip as they embraced and took turns pointing at Steinfeld's baby bump and her sweatshirt, which fittingly beared the word "mother."

At the end of the video, the screen panned out to reveal the two holding hands in front of an adorable tiny snowman.

In February, Steinfeld opened up about preparing for baby amid an exciting time in her career. (*Sinners* took home four Oscars last month.)

"Of course, I have all the to-do lists (which you know I love), and I've been busy with research and the general life reorganization that happens when you're about to have a baby," Steinfeld wrote on Beau Society. "But the most profound and grounding part of getting ready for this baby has been the introspective side of it: the quiet conversations I'm having with myself almost every day."

She added that she was daydreaming about what she'd be like as a mom as she was in full nesting mode.

"While tuning in, I've experienced this surreal, full-body awareness that our world is about to expand in beautiful ways. We're getting ready to meet someone we already love so much," she said. "I've racked my brain for words to describe that feeling, and I don't have them yet. Maybe that's the point. For now, I'm blessed to be settling into the feeling."

Allen was equally excited about his new gig as dad, telling NFL on Fox, "This is the most important thing I'll ever be in my life... I love being a football player and I love being a quarterback for the Buffalo Bills, but I'm looking forward to this [role.]"

Perez Hilton is coming clean.

The controversial blogger apologized for his mistakes in a nine-minute video posted to his social media pages. The video came just over a week after he revealed that he'd been hospitalized for 21 days for sepsis and infections — and that "God presented himself" to Hilton during the medical crisis.

"I made a lot of mistakes in my past. We all have. Nobody's perfect," Hilton said. "But my mistakes are very public. The internet is forever. Receipts are forever. I carry with me deep shame and regret. I'm sorry, I will continue to apologize. I have also reached out to make amends. I have apologized publicly and privately to dozens of people."

Hilton continued, "Because I was so selfish, because I didn't care who I hurt, I just cared about the views, the attention, the money — people hated me. Some people enjoyed it, but it felt like most people hated me. And last week, since I've been home, I haven't been getting as much hate, and I've been getting love and prayers."

The media personality also expressed confidence that his sins have been forgiven. "I've made a lot of mistakes in my past, but I know that God loves me," he said. "God has forgiven me, and almost more importantly, I have forgiven myself."

Hilton recognizes that his approach to online reporting has earned him a subpar reputation.

"I know there still are people out there who wanna see me suffer and wanna see me pay for the mistakes and the bad decisions and the hurt that I caused in the past," he said. "'Karma.' And they're entitled to that opinion. It is valid. I earned those thoughts, but I forgive myself."

At the same time, Hilton also defended his line of work.

"I don't do gossip. I do celebrity journalism," he said. "And I have to provide for my family. I have three young children, and my mother that I also support, and my sister who works for me. I'm doing my best."

The blogger added that he's now "doing things differently than before" after his medical scare.

"My heart is filled with gratitude and love and repentance," he said. "I'm sorry. I forgive myself. I forgive you. If you want bad things to happen to me, then I send you love. I send you all love."

In his previous video announcing his hospitalization, Hilton reflected on his religious transformation.

"One of the most special things about this experience is that God presented himself to me," he said last month. "It was not a feeling. God presented himself to me. And I grew up Catholic. I was baptized, had my communion, confirmed, went to Jesuit school for seven years. But I was never a believer until now."

The romance comes over a year after Simpson and Eric Johnson announced they split following 10 years of marriage

Jessica Simpson is seeing someone new.

The singer and entrepreneur, 45, is dating musician Thomas Eisenhood, a source tells PEOPLE. Eisenhood currently lives in Nashville and was a member of the Stoop Kids band, which broke up in 2023 per its Instagram bio.

"She's happy. She's in a great place, excited for her future," the source exclusively tells PEOPLE.

TMZ was first to report on Simpson dating Eisenhood.

The romance comes over a year after Simpson and Eric Johnson, 46, announced their separation in January 2025. The exes were married for 10 years and share three children: daughters Maxwell Drew, 13, and Birdie Mae, 7, and son Ace Knute, 12.

The source adds that the exes are successfully co-parenting after their split.

"She and Eric are committed to being the best possible parents they could be, having a harmonious relationship and supporting their kids," the source says.

Earlier this month, a source told PEOPLE that Johnson and Simpson are still living together while they try to "figure out the best path forward" and sell their family home in Hidden Hills, Calif.

"He's been living there, but they're working on selling the house," the source said. "The goal has been to keep everything as stable and as friendly for the kids as possible."

The nearly $17 million home has been on and off the market since they announced their split, according to property records.

The insider added that Simpson and Johnson, who tied the knot in 2014, "still have a great relationship. They're still co-parenting. The main goal is the kids, but they're moving toward next steps."

They addressed reports that Johnson was living in a home nearby and said, "He's not right now, but that is what the plan is."

As for Simpson, she's "focused on her kids," the source continued. "She's focused on her music right now, her career, getting back to work, and that's it."

Simpson confirmed her separation from the former NFL player in January 2025, telling PEOPLE at the time, "Eric and I have been living separately navigating a painful situation in our marriage."

"Our children come first, and we are focusing on what is best for them," Simpson said. "We are grateful for all of the love and support that has been coming our way, and appreciate privacy right now as we work through this as a family."

Alana Haim is clear on where her loyalty lies.

On the Wednesday, April 1 episode of Andy Cohen's Watch What Happens Live, the 34-year-old musician didn't hesitate to show her support for a certain Summer House star.

While sitting beside Vanderpump Rules alum Kristen Doute, Cohen, 57, asked Haim about her reaction to the jaw-dropping news that Summer House costars Amanda Batula, 34, and West Wilson, 28, are now dating, despite Batula being close friends with his ex, Ciara Miller, 30.

"I mean, before we even begin, I had to make a shirt before I got here," the Drama star said as she reached over to an end table next to her and grabbed a T-shirt with bedazzled letters.

Holding up the top, she showed off the blinged out "Team Ciara!" custom garment.

"I'm just going to put it on so you know what it says because I'm very, very passionate about this," Haim said, slipping it over her dress. "I am Team Ciara! All the way!"

"People on the street are asking me, like, 'You have to explain this drama,' And it's like giving me life every day," she joked.

Cohen, a longtime host and exec at Bravo, where all three aforementioned television shows air, said he had trouble going to dinner the night prior and dropping his son off that morning because reporters were hounding him for answers.

"TMZ was at my son's school this morning at drop-off," he claimed of the media spectacle the Summer House situation has snowballed into.

Haim then explained why she feels so strongly about supporting Miller.

"The thing is, we watched Ciara confide in Amanda about West, and we watched them kind of fall in love again this season," she said. "So, I thought, 'Oh, they're getting back together, right?'"

"You never betray a girl like that. That's your girl. It's your best friend," Haim said.

The One Battle After Another star also told Cohen and Doute that she hoped, at the very least, that Batula and Wilson were tactful in the way Miller found out.

"I hope, I hope, I hope, I pray, that they sat her down and told her before the news came out," Haim said, slyly adding, "And I hope, I hope, I pray, that cameras were up."

On Tuesday, March 31, Batula and Wilson shared identical statements on their Instagram Stories, addressing their "very new" relationship, claiming that they never meant "to purposely hide anything."

However, a source told PEOPLE Batula and Wilson "kept this very secretive and were openly lying about it," which, according to the source, "forced everyone else to put it together over the past few days as the rest of the world did the same."

Miller seemingly addressed the drama during a hosting gig for the Apple TV+ season 2 premiere of Your Friends & Neighbors on Monday, March 30, where she uploaded her first Instagram post since news broke, and captioned it, "If you can't trust your Friends & Neighbors, who can you trust?"

Haim stars in the upcoming film The Drama, which costars Zendaya and Robert Pattinson and hits theaters on Friday, April 3.

Bodycam of Tiger Woods arrest shows golfer being handcuffed

Body camera footage of Tiger Woods' arrest has been released, less than a week after the golf icon was taken into custody following a car crash in Florida and charged with driving under the influence.

The video shows Woods being handcuffed after failing a sobriety test.

The Martin County Sheriff's Office, which responded to the collision, shared video of the arrest on Thursday. It shed more light on the incident that deputies recounted in an affidavit detailing Woods' demeanor as he interacted with officers and attempted, only partially correctly, to complete a series of sobriety exercises.

In the body camera video, Woods told deputies that he had been checking his phone while driving and hit the car in front of him.

"I looked down at my phone and all of a sudden, boom," Woods said. No one was injured.

Woods, 50, had to climb out of the passenger's side door of his Land Rover in the wake of the March 27 crash on Jupiter Island, because the car had flipped onto its side after clipping the trailer attached to a pickup truck driving in front of him, according to the arrest report.

Deputies observed the athlete "sweating profusely," with glassy and bloodshot eyes that he initially concealed behind a pair of sunglasses. In the report, they said Woods was driving behind the truck and failed to notice when it slowed down in front of him to turn into a driveway. His SUV then swerved over the double lines running down the center of the street and struck the trailer before rolling over.

Woods told deputies that he had not consumed alcohol that day but had taken "a few" prescription medications, the names of which were redacted from the arrest report. In the video, Woods' voice was muted as he described some of the medications.

The footage showed the moment two pills were found in the pocket of Woods' pants, which deputies also described in their affidavit. Woods could be heard telling an officer "that's a Norco" once the pills were retrieved, referring to a drug containing hydrocodone and acetaminophen, the reported. The pills were later determined to be the painkiller hydrocodone, according to the affidavit.

While undergoing a sobriety test, Woods told officers that he underwent seven surgeries on his back and more than 20 on his right leg, and his ankle seizes when he walks.

Throughout his interactions with officers at the scene, Woods appeared to be alert but his "movement was lethargic and slow," they said in the arrest report. He agreed to undergo field sobriety tests, which were meant to evaluate his coordination and ability to follow instructions, but did not perform all of the tasks correctly.

Prior to his arrest, the bodycam video shows Woods, while holding his cell phone, telling deputies that he had just spoken to "the president."

"I was just talking to the president," Woods says in the video. It's unclear if Woods was referring to President Trump.

Addressing the crash on March 27, Mr. Trump told reporters of Woods at the time, "I feel so badly...he's got some difficulty. There was an accident, and that's all I know. Very close friend of mine. He's an amazing person, amazing man. But some difficulty."

Woods was taken into custody without incident and subsequently transported to the Martin County Jail, deputies said. Once there, he agreed to an alcohol breath test, which did not show the presence of alcohol in his body, but refused to submit a urine test, which could have detected other substances in his system. In addition to the DUI, Woods faces additional charges for refusing the urine test.

A court document filed Tuesday by Woods' attorneys showed he has pleaded not guilty to the charges and waived his right to arraignment. Woods said later in a social media post that he would be "stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment."
