  1. Review: Steven Spielberg's 'Lincoln' A Towering Achievement

    Hollywood's most successful director turns on a dime and delivers his most restrained, interior film. A celebrated playwright shines an illuminating light on no more than a sliver of a great man's life. A brilliant actor surpasses even himself and makes us see a celebrated figure in ways we hadn't anticipated. This is the power and the surprise of <a id=&quot;ENMV0002731" class="taxInlineTagLink" title="Lincoln (movie, 2012)" href="../topic/entertainment/movies/lincoln-%28movie-2012%29-ENMV0002731.topic">"Lincoln."</a>

  3. Redford, plot defy time ★★ 1/2

    Some actors are lucky. In the third act of their careers, they become dream versions of their own parents, or grandparents. Paul Newman did that. So did Katharine Hepburn. We got to know them, and love them, at one age; then, against every Hollywood dictum, they were allowed to mature, to mellow, as they acquired a few more years. They weren't competing with their iconic youthful images so much as putting our memories of those early years to good use, as the crow's feet, slowed gait and thinning hair came along and changed them. It's a privilege to watch an actor age gracefully in the movies; so few are given the chance or the roles.

  5. 'Rectify' TV review: Tense, beautiful 'Rectify' rewards patience

    In the second hour of Sundance Channel's incredibly absorbing new series &quot;Rectify," Daniel Holden takes off his shoes and socks in the outfield of a baseball diamond. He revels at the feel of grass between his toes and the sun on his face, two sensations he hadn't experienced in the 19 years he spent on death row.

  6. 'Promised Land'

    Much as he had Ben Affleck as a colleague in both writing and acting in the Oscar-winning &quot;Good Will Hunting," Matt Damon has a similar peer in John Krasinski ("The Office") in this drama about fracking, the effort to find and market natural gas from underground.

  8. Val Kilmer taking his offbeat Mark Twain show on the road

    Although it seems like Hal Holbrook has owned the role of Mark Twain for decades, another actor has staked a theatrical claim to the white-haired novelist and wit. Val Kilmer has been working on "Citizen Twain," a solo play in which he plays the writer,...

  10. On Theater: Another 'Lincoln,' closer to home

    I'd like to use my space this week to talk about &quot;Lincoln." No, not the Steven Spielberg blockbuster that may be front-and-center at Sunday's Oscar ceremonies, and not Bill O'Reilly's "Killing Lincoln," now on our television screens.

  12. 'Promised Land': Fracking tale barely touches surface ★★

    For a fellow who's just been promoted to vice president of land management by his multibillion-dollar natural gas company, the character played by Matt Damon in &quot;Promised Land" is awfully wussy. He turns into a puddle whenever he's bested by the opposition: a likable environmental activist portrayed by John Krasinski. What's up? Mr. Corporate Slicko has never been trained in countering the other side's arguments?
