  1. 'Somm': Swirl, sniff and imbibe a mid-level documentary ★★ 1/2

    Filmmaker Jason Wise has worked as an underwater photographer as well as a bartender, so quite naturally Wise's first feature-length documentary involves massive quantities of liquid. In "Somm," a slick, easygoing feature debut, we follow four male friends and colleagues, wine obsessives all, as they prepare for the exam that qualifies a lucky few (201 worldwide to date) for the distinction, title and prestige of becoming a master sommelier.

  2. When celebrity interviews go bad

    Let us consider for a moment the Hollywood performance that never gets nominated for awards but can be just as indelible as any Oscar-winning role. I'm referring to the celebrity interview that goes viral.

  4. Ricky Jay keeps his magic tricks, and thoughts, close to the vest

    About midway through the documentary "Deceptive Practice: The Mysteries and Mentors of Ricky Jay" (opening Friday at the Music Box Theatre), Jay emerges backstage after a performance and is greeted by a roomful of people. As he acknowledges his well-wishers, he catches sight of a person filming him and says, only half joking: "Cameras. They should be avoided at all costs."

  5. 'Portrait of Jason': A raconteur gets his moment

    "Portrait of Jason" begins with a test tone and a blurry image. And then, as the screen slowly comes into focus, the tone stops and you hear a crew member say: "This is Shirley Clarke, 'Portrait of Jason.' Roll one, sound one. Sound rolling, camera rolling."

  7. 'Peeples' star Craig Robinson's full plate may get even fuller

    For the last nine seasons Craig Robinson has played Darryl, one of the most understated characters on TV. "The Office" may be closing out its ninth and final season next week, but Robinson's profile is about to increase exponentially. He has three movies coming out, including the idiots-at-the-apocalypse comedy "This Is the End" (with Seth Rogen, James Franco and Jonah Hill) and "Rapture-Palooza" (playing no less than the Antichrist himself, seducing Anna Kendrick).

  9. Ray Harryhausen: Movie stop-motion master crafted magic

    If Ray Harryhausen had designed only one sequence in his cinematic career, any one of his real lulus &mdash; let's start with the skeleton army battle in &ldquo;Jason and the Argonauts&rdquo; from 1963 &mdash; he'd still be the master of stop-motion animation special effects.

  10. 'Hava Nagila' a song that's a party in itself ★★★

    Born in Ukraine, raised in Palestine, the toast of the Catskills and the inevitable guest star at countless Jewish celebrations the world over, the song "Hava Nagila" has pulled many a <em>goy</em> (and I'd like to thank Dave Fantle for letting me crash his wedding) into a hora for a few delirious minutes.

  11. 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.

  12. Broadway review: 'Pippin' pulls off a theatrical high-wire act

    <strong>NEW YORK &mdash; </strong>There are shows that revive aging material through revisionism. And there are productions that prefer to celebrate the pull of nostalgia, especially when the songs are great. "Pippin," the brilliant Diane Paulus revival of the fantastically playful musical by Stephen Schwartz and Roger O. Hirson, with a special place in the theater-loving hearts of many, somehow combines the best of those two approaches, at once re-energizing this 40-year-old musical with freshness, vitality and eye-popping exuberance without ever making it feel like the crucial sweetness and naivete of the piece has been undermined or exploited.
