  1. 10 things you might not know about film critics

    A screenwriter who went by the pseudonyms of R. Hyde and Reinhold Timme died recently in Chicago. Others knew the man as Roger Ebert, film critic for the Chicago Sun-Times. Ebert's death got us thinking about interesting facts involving movie critics. So let's give this one 10 stars — or 10 thumbs up, if you're all thumbs.

  2. Latin cinema comes to AMC 600 North

    Watch enough new foreign films in a row, and certain things start to stand out. Like the incredible variety of cellphone ring tones used in other countries. They're familiar but just different enough to break your concentration for a moment, like a...

  3. Why should we watch Caddyshack?

    It’s fun, that’s why. I’m here for the fun. The raucous, laugh-filled experience of the Tribune’s “Slap Shot" sparked it, and I’m still getting thanks for co-hosting that event. “Caddyshack" is the “Slap...

  4. Trib Nation March Madness events. Build your bracket. Watch 'Hoosiers' with Trib Nation.

    March is here. That time of year when we all become, if only for a couple of weeks, college basketball fanatics. We’re a little bit sentimental, a little bit bracket-pool-obsessed. And Trib Nation has just the events for all of us.

  5. Movies and March Madness

    If you're a college basketball fan, March means the NCAA's annual spring basketball tournament.

  6. Oscars: Seth MacFarlane is an Academy guy

    When Seth MacFarlane takes the stage Sunday as host of the 85thAcademy Awards, chances are a large portion of the viewing audience will look at their TV screens and wonder: Who is this guy? He might just be the least famous Oscar host ever , with a resume unlike that of any previous host except for the author and humorist Irvin S. Cobb, who hosted in 1935 — but even Cobb had a career in front of the camera.

  8. From page to screen: A lively discussion

    December's Printers Row Book of the Month was also the top weekend box office draw in mid-December: J.R.R. Tolkien's jaunty adventure "The Hobbit," now in the form of a two-hour-plus 3-D action movie, thanks to New Zealand director Peter Jackson.

  9. To the screen, and back again

    I'm 51 and Bilbo-free. Somehow "The Hobbit" has eluded me my entire reading life. What was I reading in junior high when I first noticed everyone else was reading it? "Big A: The Story of Lew Alcindor," maybe. Or William K. Everson's book on Laurel & Hardy. I had no special resistance to hobbits or to subterranean fantasy or to J.R.R. Tolkien. But we read what we read, and now here "The Hobbit" sits on my desk, next in line for takeoff. A big chunk of my non-screen work existence is spent reading material related, somehow, to films I'm covering. It's one of the great perks of the job. You read a lot, and then you put it away, so that the screen adaptations have a fighting chance to establish their own ground rules.

  10. No hockey? Watch "Slap Shot" with us. (This event sold out)

    NHL commissioner Gary Bettman locked out the players on Sept. 15. Since then, he has decided to hold his breath until he turns blue. No NHL hockey. No hope, either. This made hockey fans sad, even those in Columbus. Then Stevie Sunshine had an idea: If we couldn’t watch the best players in the world, then we could at least watch the best hockey movie ever.

  11. 'Slap Shot' screening cures hockey blues

    The prospect of a winter without pucks draws closer to reality as each day concludes without movement in the NHL's labor dispute.
