A little while ago, a friend told me to check out Arcade Fire’s new album The Suburbs.I made a mental note, but not much more. This is why the Internet is so great.
The Kids Are All Right,directed by Lisa Cholodenko (LaurelCanyon), is one of this summer’s most talked-about independent movies. It’s a “dramedy” about a lesbian couple, Nic (Annette Bening, American Beauty) and Jules (Julianne Moore, A Single Man).
I grew up on Monty Python, National Lampoon and Mel Brooks. My first R-rated movie was Blazing Saddles, and King Arthur still makes me think of Monty Python’s Legend of the Holy Grail before The Sword in the Stone. It should come as no surprise, then, that I have a rather twisted sense of humor.
I will be honest; I am always a little leery of books that have fancy, creative formats. I am all for chapters, and even parts, but when these become cutely renamed as scenes and acts when it is about a movie, I assume that that plot will be just as contrived.
Scottish comedian Craig Ferguson (“The Drew Carey Show”) has hosted “The Late Late Show”on CBS since January 2005. Though still not quite as high profile as some other late-night hosts, Ferguson has built a loyal fan base and become increasingly popular over the last five years, thanks to his quirky sense of humor and willingness to depart from late-night TV conventions.
