  2. Review: Romance and rebellion in 'Something in the Air'

    There is fire everywhere in Olivier Assayas' scorching new coming-of-age drama "Something in the Air." It is in the passions, in the politics and in the sex roiling through the filmmaker's vision of 1970s-era Paris. For this is a memoir of sorts of Assayas' youth &mdash; the forces that pulled at him and the choices that shaped who he would become.

  3. Goldberg: Niall Ferguson's blooper

    At an investment conference last week, Harvard historian Niall Ferguson created a huge mess for himself. He glibly speculated that maybe because economist John Maynard Keynes was a childless, "effete" homosexual, he embraced a doctrine that favored immediate economic gratification. Keynes' bon mot "in the long run, we are all dead" takes on new meaning when you realize he didn't have kids to worry about.

  4. Review: 'Someone Who'll Watch Over Me' a gritty, touching revival

    Depending on your point of view, the enduring topicality of Frank McGuinness&rsquo; 1992 Middle East hostage drama, &ldquo;Someone Who&rsquo;ll Watch Over Me,&rdquo; can be seen as a testament to either the play&rsquo;s thematic depth or to the depressingly unsolvable problems it depicts. The ambiguity is appropriate, given McGuinness&rsquo; intent to depict an all-too realistic tragedy in terms of existential psychology rather than ideology &mdash; a goal taken to heart in a gritty revival from NoHo&rsquo;s the Group Rep.

  6. Art Review: Max Jansons "Ocean Park" at 2520 18th Street

    Max Jansons makes gentle little paintings that are easy to overlook. And that&rsquo;s fine by him. The last thing his softly painted pictures want is to force you to do anything. If paintings had DNA, Jansons&rsquo; would share none of the hard-sell pushiness that Americans often mistake for strength.

  12. 1984's 'Repo Man' possesses a healthy cynicism

    Iggy Pop was living in an efficiency apartment near the Whisky a Go Go when a gangly Brit visited him, seeking a theme song for his first movie. The filmmaker was Alex Cox, a graduate of UCLA film school, and the movie was "Repo Man," which would, after a brief initial release, achieve cult status for its punk bona fides and its comic sci-fi vision of Ronald Reagan-era Los Angeles.
