  1. 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof' on Broadway: Johansson's heat is only half the story

    <strong>NEW YORK &mdash;</strong> As Tennessee Williams understood better than almost any other scribe who ever stared down a typewriter, anger and need are not the same thing. In a lousy marriage &mdash; such as the one between Margaret and Brick in Williams' &quot;Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" &mdash; the two get conflated, of course, as anyone who has screamed at a partner in frustration from some unmet desire well knows. But like most of Williams' struggling souls, Maggie isn't annoyed in the way one gets annoyed, say, when one's deal isn't honored or one's plane is overbooked. She and her handsome, athletic hubby are both trapped in a hot mess of pain, unable to mutually twist their bodies in a way that might bring at least one of them some relief.

  4. 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter,' rail-splitter, head lopper ✭✭

    The first in what I dearly hope is a trilogy to include &quot;Calvin Coolidge: Exorcist" and "George W. Bush: Werewolves Is Comin'," the frenzied and occasionally diverting mashup"Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" rewrites American history so that the Civil War becomes a war between humans from the North and bloodsucking fiends on the Confederate side.

  8. 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter'

    The title tells it like it is ... at least in the case of this Tim Burton-produced fantasy, about as big a revision of history as there could be. The story traces the supposed pursuits of one of America's most legendary presidents (played by Benjamin Walker, Meryl Streep's son-in-law) before he became the country's leader, and while he supposedly fought bloodsuckers intent on taking control of the nation.
