  1. Change in air surrounding White Sox

    Jerry Reinsdorf is 77, going on 40. He wasn't joking when he told a friend he is planning to serve as host when the 2033 All-Star Game comes to U.S. Cellular Field, commemorating the first one at Comiskey Park in 1933.

  2. Follow-up a beautiful muddle by an interesting filmmaker

    A movie on which to float, rather than park your easily expressed opinions, "Upstream Color" is a river conveying a kind of love story involving two lost souls. Comparisons to Terrence Malick and "The Tree of Life," among other Malicks, have abounded ever...

  3. 'Safety Not Guaranteed': Departing cynicism for a trip taken on faith ✭✭✭

    Sardonic like its heroine but, at heart, a sweetie, the fetching new comedy "Safety Not Guaranteed"came through the Sundance Film Festival where it won the screenwriting award. The film's based on a classified ad that ran in Backwoods Home magazine in the 1990s and then, years later, thanks to the internets, acquired a second, viral life for itself. "WANTED: Someone to go back in time with me. This is not a joke. ... You'll get paid after we get back."

  4. 'Hello I Must Be Going' finds post-divorce solace close to home ★★ 1/2

    As a teenager the New Zealand-born Melanie Lynskey came to international attention opposite an equally young and skillful Kate Winslet in the Peter Jackson true-crime drama "Heavenly Creatures."

  5. Manipulative music, plot devices keep 'Beasts of the Southern Wild' from greatness ★★

    Already "Beasts of the Southern Wild"is the most divisive film of 2012, which is a testament to its co-writer and director, Benh Zeitlin, making his feature film debut with a picture that killed at Sundance, won the Camera d'Or (best first film) at Cannes and has been critically anointed by some while declared shiny but overbearing by others.

  6. 'Something in the Air' a coming of age in a time of chaos ★★★

    Gliding through turbulent revolutionary times with an air of inquisitive detachment, and with a sheaf of his latest drawings under his arm, young Gilles, played by newcomer Clement Metayer in "Something in the Air," is the latest screen portrait of an artist as a young man. It's a good one too, rich and assured, even if writer-director Olivier Assayas is more successful at creating atmosphere than at making his romanticized younger self a three-dimensional being.

  7. Partnership outlives romance for 'Celeste and Jesse' writers

    The vinegary romantic comedy "Celeste and Jesse Forever" took half-a-forever to get financed and made, as so many films do. Rashida Jones of "Parks and Recreation" co-stars with Andy Samberg. With her longtime best friend and, briefly, early on, two-to-three-week boyfriend, actor Will McCormack, Jones co-wrote the script about a young couple whose divorce is a stated fact at the beginning of the movie. The rest of the story deals with the rest of the story — the uneasy post-split friendship, the ties they refuse to sever, all in the sunny, slightly nervous realm of Los Angeles County.

  8. Kam Kardashian: Long-lost, totally made-up sister found in Chicago

    Anyone with a cellphone and a laptop can make a Web series. But it's tough to pull off something that looks professionally made. Not when there's barely any money involved. There is a huge opportunity here for indie filmmakers, especially those inventive enough to shoot great-looking videos on nonexistent budgets, to step in and make a name for themselves.

  9. Pinning down Chicago artist Lilli Carre

    Lille Carre is 29, petite, moon-faced and unassuming. She curls forward as she speaks. On a quiet morning in her Noble Square apartment, she speaks softly and gives off an air of frailty. It's not hard to picture her stepping out of one of her own creations. She is an illustrator, an animator and a cartoonist, and her characters are similarly ethereal and angular and look exhausted. They appear to be moments away from floating off into space. They are like her work: hard to pin down.

  10. Add David Foster Wallace to 'unlikable' pantheon

    The last time filmmaker Jason Reitman came through town we got into a conversation about unlikable characters. He knows something about unlikable characters: "My first movie was about the head lobbyist for Big Tobacco ('Thank You for Smoking'), my second was about a sarcastic pregnant teenager ('Juno') and my third was about a guy who fires people for a living ('Up in the Air')."

  11. Roger Ebert: Quintessential Chicagoan

    When Anthony Bourdain was in town last summer taping a Chicago-themed episode of his Travel Channel show “The Layover,” he asked various people, including me, to name the quintessential Chicagoan, and a consensus quickly emerged.

  12. Interview: Chicago native 'The East' star/co-writer Brit Marling

    Brit Marling seems to have a thing for punishment. In “Another Earth,” she wrote about a woman seeking redemption following a vehicular manslaughter; in her film opening Friday, “The East,” an anarchist group seeks vengeance on corporations for harming the public.
