  1. The drinks are flowing again at King Eddy Saloon

    The Enabler has fretted about the fate of the legendary Skid Row dive bar the King Eddy Saloon since it was bought by new owners and closed for renovations in December. King Eddy, which first opened in 1933, has a history of attracting literary types, including John Fante and Charles Bukowski, along with a rough and tumble cast of blue collar workers, homeless folks and artists. It was easy to imagine the new owners, Acme Bar Group, making it a place for the fancy pants set. The thought made the Enabler want to smash a bottle of vermouth over her head.

  2. Remembering Bukowski with O.C.'s 'poet grandfather'

    <em>I am not a writer of prose. This is not an article, an anecdote or short story. It is simply the imperfect account of an evening from several points of view.</em>

  4. Movie review: 'Beautiful Creatures' has brains and bewitching cast too

    Maybe there really are supernatural forces at work in this world. How else to explain "Beautiful Creatures"? The movie is an intriguing, intelligent enigma &mdash; three words not typically associated with teen romances.

  6. Latino artists and diversity in Yo Solo fest

    Solo festivals have long been a feature of Chicago theater. Fillet of Solo, now under the curatorial hand of Lifeline Theatre, has presented the best in local monologists for years. It's on hiatus this year, which leaves a wide-open field for Yo Solo Theatre Festival, dedicated to work created by Latino artists. But the quality and variety of work on display would make Yo Solo a vital and welcome addition to the local theatrical menu any year.

    Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
    First published on Nov. 27, 2011. Revised and expanded in early 2012. It's 1922, and nothing much is up in Pasadena. Not among the orange groves, not along the leafy streets. Just as the little old ladies like it. But wait. Down in the Arroyo Seco, a...

  10. If you look in L.A., plenty of noir is still there

    LOS ANGELES &#8212; It was a dank, rain-sodden Raymond Chandler kind of morning, as if some omnipotent auteur had rung up the studio and ordered a classic film noir sky. Cumulonimbus clouds the color of a snub-nosed revolver hovered with ominous intent, and tires on slickened freeway lanes gave off a sinister, knife-sharpening hiss.

  11. Art review: Japanese art revival restores the peace

    The flurry of traditional Japanese arts and crafts in Southern California this month is not in Los Angeles proper. L.A. County Art Museum's majestic Pavilion for Japanese Art remains the West Coast's greatest showcase, but three unrelated Pasadena events form a fascinating cultural convergence. They signify a quietly strong century of Japanese-American history in the area.
