The Weinstein Company is over. Bob Weinstein — after blowing up the company in act of perfidy rarely seen — has accepted a bridge loan from an odd source, perhaps on purpose.

While TWC negotiates a fire sale, Bob has taken money from Tom Barrack, owner of Colony Capital. Of course, Barrack is a very important backer of Donald Trump. He even organized the famously small inauguration back in January. He also helped engineer Michael Jackson’s downfall via “Doctor” Tohme Tohme– but that’s another story.

Irony number 1: Harvey Weinstein did what he could to defeat Trump. Now his brother has taken money from the enemy.

Irony number 2: Colony Capital– which snatched Neverland from Michael Jackson and has never been able to sell it — previously owned the Miramax library after Disney sold it to them. CC already picked over Weinstein bones and then sold them off. This is the second time around.

It’s hard for me to read statements from Bob Weinstein depicting him as some kind of ignorant angel and victim in all these matters. Bob was always considered the more unpleasant of the two brothers, the more venal, and less artistic. Or not artistic at all. That he didn’t know what Harvey was doing all these years — in any arena — is absurd.

But what is really outrageous is Bob’s behavior toward his own brother. Yes, it does appear that Harvey has done terrible things. Bob, however, would have no life and a much different career if Harvey had not produced all those Oscar films. It was Harvey’s taste and aptitude for making quality films that put Miramax on the map. Without “The English Patient” et al, Miramax under Bob would have been Troma without the irony.

Justin Timberlake acquits himself as an actor in Woody Allen’s “Wonder Wheel,” a gorgeous looking drama that offers Kate Winslet in an Oscar buzzy performance, and Jim Belushi as a breakout possible Supporting Actor nominee.

“Wonder Wheel” doesn’t open until December 1st, but it won raves last night at the closing of the New York Film Festival. Allen and Winslet waved to the audience at Alice Tully Hall from a box high above, but declined to accept kudos at Tavern on the Green, where they were absent. But Timberlake and Belushi were happy to make the scene, as well as Tony Sirico and Steve Schirrippa, the two former Sopranos who make a cameo in the film.

Justin was accompanied by his beautiful wife, Jessica Biel, who just wrapped her USA TV series. They are happy as clams, and Jessica raved about their two and a half year old son, Silas.

But when I asked Justin what to expect at his Super Bowl performance come February, I was surprised by the answer. “There’s no announcement,” he said. (Funny– so much time had passed I thought this was all done. Last year the NFL announced Lady Gaga on September 29th.) He and manager Rick Yorn each shook their heads. “No, nope, no, the NFL is still having issues of course with kneeling,” Justin said. “There is nothing to announce.”

So, that’s a downer.

But “Wonder Wheel” — which I see is dividing press who saw it this week– I feel is a strong drama with moral twist that will surprise the audience. Winslet is extraordinary in her transition through the arc of the film. And her work in the third act will yield her many nominations and awards.

Is “Blade Runner 2049” a hit? Uh, no, not really. The Ryan Gosling future adventure is just clearing $100 million worldwide– $50 mil US, $50 mil all in everywhere else. Sounds good, but “2049” probably cost $200 million. And it’s already fallen to number 3 in the US behind a cheapo horror movie, “Happy Death Day,” from Jason Blum. “Happy Death Day” cost $5 million to make, and has already earned $11.6 million.

PS There is no one you’ve ever heard of in “Happy Death Day.” But I have– Ruby Modine, daughter of Matthew Modine and his great wife, Cari. Ruby is a talented actress and singer songwriter. Mazel tov! This is just the beginning for her. Her brother, Boman  Modine, is working all the time as a 1st and 2nd director on shorts. He’s also producing a new feature for release next year. “Stranger things” have happened! What a family!

Meantime, Simon Curtis’s “Goodbye Christopher Robin” had a great opening night very limited release from Fox Searchlight. The story of how A.A. Milne created Winnie the Pooh and Christopher Robin– whom he named after his own son– is a wonderful, charming film that will stay with you. Domhnall Gleeson is superior as Milne, and his scenes with the younger actors who play Christopher are remarkable. Kelly MacDonald is a stand out as Christopher’s nanny. And Margot Robbie makes for a beautiful, detached and humorous Mrs. Milne.

Fox Searchlight threw quite a shindig for “Goodbye Christopher Robin” at the New York Public Library on Thursday night. I tried like crazy to find out from Domhnall what he’s going in “The Last Jedi.” “Very tricky!” he declared. “You’ll never get it out of me!” Robbie, 27, has become something of a movie mogul. She’s producing films everywhere. “We even have a television division,” she told me.

I told Margot my running joke. Because she was so effective explaining the plot of “The Big Short” in a broken fourth wall in that movie, I think she should be added to every confusing film as on screen Director of Information. She doesn’t even have to be in a bathtub. “I could just be drinking tea,” she said, laughing. Imagine her in most of 2017’s films. Box office would go right up!
