Michael Bettencourt
"Dogme(fill in the year)"
In 1995, Danish directors Lars van Trier and Thomas Vinterberg issued the manifesto known as Dogme95, an attempt to "purify" filmmaking by doing away with gimmicks and special effects.
Arthur Meiselman
"Lester Cole"
He was a New York playwright, a prolific screenwriter during Hollywood's golden years, a leader and the most vehement
member of the blacklisted Hollywood Ten.
Nathan Thomas
"Theatre"
Sometimes a theatre doesn't need to become an industrial showplace. Sometimes a company can look toward creating relationships with its members and its audience. Sometimes it doesn't have to be about money first
Les Marcott
"Defending Jon Voight"
Who knew he was a raving mad conservative? At least he's not foaming at the mouth yet, or maybe he is.
Claudine Jones
"No Hamstrings in Heaven"
I got hooked on So You Think You Can Dance--even though it's FOX
and I should be boycotting them. But I can't miss LOST, so screw it.
Martin Challis
A Christmas Eve with Godot
After the performance it was hard to describe it to one another, yet each of us knew something extraordinary had happened.
