Next, in Film & TV Dimplified, we recommend the must-watch series Scarpetta, starring two Oscar winners:

• Jamie Lee Curtis (Everything Everywhere All at Once) — cleft chin
• Nicole Kidman (The Hours) — featuring the elegant Dimples of Venus (back dimples)

And in Fantasy Dimpled Draftees, we stay on theme by spotlighting Oscar Tshiebwe of the Utah Jazz, predicting his next season will be the best of his career.
