The soundtrack of Fantastic Mr. Fox, like all Wes Anderson films, is loaded with great music that punctuate the situations. Anyone who combines Burl Ives, The Beach Boys, The Rolling Stones and the Wellingtons’ classic Ballad of Davy Crockett in one film is okay in my book. Anderson also pays homage to Disney’s foxy Robin [...]

Jarvis Cocker's in banjo wrangling, jaw harp twanging mode for "Fantastic Mr. Fox AKA Petey's Song," a playful song about vittles and the handsome little fox in Wes Anderson's Roald Dahl-inspired, Videogum-beloved Fantastic Mr. Fox . Cocker voices Petey in the film, and that's your first look at him above. George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Jason Schwartzman, and Bill Murray also voice the stop-motion...

A poem can alter the past or at least one’s memories, and I suspect paintings and photographs possess similar magic. Here’s an example: Anthony Hecht’s “Memory” from The Light and the Darkness , his final book of poems, published three years before his death in 2004: “Sepia oval portraits of the family, Black framed, adorned the small brown-papered hall, But the...

The Weekly Celebration . Our tenth wedding anniversary! Go us! The Weekly Time Waster . The Virtual Piano . The Weekly Read . I love Chuck Klosterman. Not in that way. I just think his writing is good. His pop culture-focused essays are fantastic and his observations never cease to be insightful and inspired.

We need something to say, something to think, or even do. Literature is a hair crown, a method of giving these odd vegetables of the celestium something to quod in the long unglittering hall, in the architectural stupor that is boxing with...

Deep Space Nine Executive Producer Ira Steven Behr had seen Darren perform and wanted him for the 1960s Vegas holographic performer. “That was a [...]

I don't think I can recommend this mp3 album more enthusiastically. I love it, and think that fans of the blues, folk music, and gospel music will too. Just check out the various artist who are included here. The cool part about mp3 albums is that you only have to buy the tracks that you like, but in this case each track is a keeper.
