I came across this interesting made-for-TV movie while browsing the shelves of a local library. The movie features a group of blacks, who had grown old in an environment of racial animus. This is a story portraying a group of downtrodden formerly meek and mild bunch of going-with-the-flow people who went along to get along. The movie took place in the deep South in the 1940s or 1950s. The gist of the...

From Ace of Spades comes this clip (above) of MS-NBC making a real-time “correction” based on an e-mail from the White House. Upon watching it, my immediate thought was of the scene in “Broadcast News” where Albert Brooks (the brainy but uncharismatic journalist) is feeding background information for a breaking crisis to William Hurt (the handsome [...]

Pink taxis for women are popping up in countries all over the world (India, Lebanon, and, according to an AP story this week, Mexico ). The purpose behind some of them is to provide an alternative for women who don't want to be "leered at" by cab drivers. Our first thought was "Thank God we don't have to worry about that here," but, actually, in a city in which the vast majority...

SOMEWHERE, Jane Austen is aghast. Queen Victoria is about to blow a gasket. And your sweet little great-grandmother, the one apt to blush when the word "corset" came up in mixed company, is positively apoplectic.

In 1997, I was quite stoked for the release of the film "A Life Less Ordinary." So much so that I attended the first matinee showing of it's opening weekend. The cast was chock full of actors I like. Ewan McGregor. Cameron Diaz. Delroy Lindo. Holly Hunter. Stanley Tucci. Tony Shaloub. Ian Holm. The trailer promised enough offbeat sensibility to cancel out the "romantic comedy" aspect...
