  1. Étaix retrospective screens at DeBartolo

    Most people don’t associate funny movies with the country of France.
    South Bend Tribune
    Most people don’t associate funny movies with the country of France. England definitely. From Monty Python to Benny Hill, the English know how to do comedy. Sometimes those laughs come at the expense of the French. Inspector Clouseau — the...

  2. News of the Weird: Robot Squirrels and Food Stamps For Plastic Surgery

    No Do-Overs: By 2009, James Washington believed he had gotten away with a 1995 murder, but then he had a heart attack, and on his deathbed, in a fit of remorse, he confessed to a confidant. (“I have to get something off my conscience,” he told a guard in the jailhouse where he was serving time for a lesser, unrelated offense.) However, Washington miraculously recovered from the heart attack and tried to take back his confession, but prosecutors in Nashville, Tenn., were unfazed. They used it to augment the sparse evidence from 1995, and in October 2012 the now-healthier Washington was convicted of the murder and sentenced to 51 more years in prison.

  4. James Corden hilariously crosses pond in 'One Man, Two Guvnors'

    NEW YORK -- The old "contents may have shifted during flight" warning seemed especially worrying for "One Man, Two Guvnors," the London smash from the National Theatre of Great Britain that opened last week on Broadway.

  5. Cult British Comedy, Snuff Box, Now Available on DVD in U.S.

    &ldquo;The pasty, jowly, chubby guy -- the American guy who plays the zoo boss and who&rsquo;s always wearing too-tight pants suits and rubbing his nipples in &lsquo;The Mighty Boosh.&rsquo;&rdquo; That was the only way I could describe Rich Fulcher, one half of the duo who make &lsquo;Snuff Box,&rsquo; a sick/corny/sometimes very funny, &ldquo;dark&rdquo; and highly allusive 2006 British sketch comedy show now out on DVD in America. If you have no idea what &ldquo;The Mighty Boosh&rdquo; is and if the nipple-rubbing and pudge sound off-putting, well, you&rsquo;ve been warned. But if you&rsquo;re tuned into the murky vortex of absurd, broad and intentionally low-budget comedy series like &ldquo;The IT Crowd&rdquo; and &ldquo;That Mitchell Webb Look,&rdquo; (and the excellently bizarre &ldquo;Mighty Boosh&rdquo;) and, to a lesser extent, shows like &ldquo;Black Books&rdquo; and &ldquo;Spaced,&rdquo; you may -- may -- enjoy &ldquo;Snuff Box.&rdquo;

  11. Theater review: 'Bullshot Crummond and the Invisible Bride of Death' at Whitmore-Lindley Theatre Center

    Culture Monster
    A heroically zany cast ricochets across "Bullshot Crummond and the Invisible Bride of Death." Whether their droll abandon lands Ron House's sequel to his much-produced 1972 spoof of H.C. McNeile's 1920s-'30s Bulldog Drummond novels is a trickier wicket....
