  1. Oscars 2013: 'Argo' generates most heat, but can 'Lincoln' catch it?

    With the Oscars finally upon us Sunday, it's do-or-die for the movies ranked in the L.A. Times Data Desk's HeatMeter, which tallies points at events throughout the season to gauge the overall traction of people and films. With Ben Affleck's "Argo" piling up the wins, it's taken the lead in the overall film race (which incorporates all wins for a movie, and for everyone from directors to actors to cinematographers).

  2. Critic's Notebook: Movie violence must not be stopped

    I abhor violence. As a rookie police reporter years ago I saw the damage guns, knives, broken bottles, metal pipes, hands — humans — can inflict.

  7. 'Lincoln' costume designer Joanna Johnston brings beauty to war

    "Poetic" is the way British costume designer Joanna Johnston describes her journey creating the costumes for Steven Spielberg's newest film, the intimate epic "Lincoln," starring Daniel Day-Lewis and Sally Field. Having collaborated with Spielberg on many of his other dramatic films, including "Saving Private Ryan" (1998), "Munich" (2005) and, most recently, "War Horse" (2011), she brings sartorial beauty to dark periods littered with heroic characters, the apex now being Abraham Lincoln himself.

  10. John Williams and Steven Spielberg mark 40 years of collaboration

    The quietest room in Hollywood may be the office where John Williams composes. In a bungalow on the Universal Studios lot, steps from the production company of his most frequent collaborator, director Steven Spielberg, Williams works alone at a 90-year-old Steinway grand piano, with fistfuls of pencils and stacks of composition paper nearby, and worn books of poetry by Robert Frost and William Wordsworth piled on the coffee table.
