  1. 'Breakfast Club': How a talky teen film became a classic

    I was in 7th grade when "The Breakfast Club" opened in theaters, and I distinctly remember thinking the movie was <em>totally right about everything</em>. I wasn't in high school yet (and that was surely one of movie's allures; a peek in a world I would soon enter), but at 13, I had suddenly become aware of all those weird anxieties, indignities and nuances that define the lives of adolescents, and they were all right there on the screen. Perceived slights as far as the eye can see. Rigid-seeming social circles. Parents who just don't understand. If only people knew the real me.

  2. Silverman leads cult of personalities at TBS Just for Laughs Chicago

    Sarah Silverman, you're such a scold. At the Chicago Theatre late Saturday night, the unfiltered comedian was confronted with so many tweeters, texters and compulsive amateur photographers as she hosted her marquee show at the TBS Just for Laughs comedy festival, she felt the need to deliver numerous sermons on How to Watch A Live Performance. "Look at you," she snarled, venomously, to one seemingly oblivious dude in the front row, "eating popcorn like you're watching a movie and not a real person TWO FEET IN FRONT OF YOU. Is this the respect that dance gets? Is that what they do to Brian Dennehy at 'The Iceman Cometh'?"

  4. 'Somebody Up There Likes Me' review: One of the funnier movies you can shrug off

    <strong>**1/2 (out of four)</strong>
    **1/2 (out of four) Yes, somebody up there must like Max (Keith Poulson), the main character of the hilarious yet heartless “Somebody Up There Likes Me.” He’s neither charming nor particularly good-looking, but he lands lovely women...

  5. An indie brings Nick Offerman back to the Chicago area

    Whenever I find myself in a bleak mood, a quick glance at the Ron Swanson Pyramid of Greatness usually does the trick. A near-perfect melding of minds between the "Parks and Recreation" writing staff and actor Nick Offerman, this visual guide on how to live life ("Crying: Acceptable at funerals and the Grand Canyon") is one of the NBC show's lasting legacies.

  6. Q&A: Illinois native 'Parks and Recreation' star Nick Offerman on 'Somebody Up There Likes Me'

    On NBC&rsquo;s fantastic &ldquo;Parks and Recreation,&rdquo; Nick Offerman has turned Ron Swanson into such a spectacular, hilarious symbol of contained emotion and old-fashioned, meat-and-potatoes masculinity that it feels necessary to establish that Nick Offerman is not Ron Swanson.

  10. They're 'Mortified,' we're entertained

    As a genre, the celebrity interview hasn't changed much over the years. The standard talk show appearance is home to the carefully sculpted anecdote. In-depth magazine profiles tend to pivot around a contrived field trip or two, or leave you with the lingering sense that most of the spontaneous ponderings have been shaped ahead of time by the unseen hands of a publicist and manager. The press junket doesn't even pretend to be anything more than the sales tool that it is.

  11. 'Casa de Mi Padre' review: No gracias

    <strong>** (out of four)</strong>
    ** (out of four) Will Ferrell’s absurd delivery constitutes much of what makes him hilarious. So the actor speaking Spanish, no matter how enthusiastic his declaration of “Quiero la muchacha!,” risks minimizing the laughs that the big...
