  1. Being numb to it all no longer big shock

    Sometime in the next few weeks, if you're walking down Fullerton Avenue around DePaul University and have 15 minutes to spare, duck into the tidy brick building alongside the CTA station. Here you will find the DePaul Art Museum, an institution so humble that only "Art Museum" is spelled across its modest facade. The admission is free, though the lessons offered in its first gallery, at least through June 16, feel priceless.

  2. 'Seven Psychopaths' is mayhem with a moral core, writer hopes

    Opening next Friday, "Seven Psychopaths" has a title promising a certain amount of spilled blood and bad behavior, and the writer-director Martin McDonagh delivers on the promise. McDonagh notes, however, that his film contains "more dialogue in the midst of a shoot-out than the average movie featuring psychopaths with guns."

  3. The lure of a Southern drawl at the movies

    "There are things you can get away with in this world, and things you can't."
    "There are things you can get away with in this world, and things you can't." The voice is Matthew McConaughey's, and days after seeing him in "Mud," I can close my eyes and hear him still — a simple line echoing with the mysteries of a man caught...

  4. Reel Critics: No gain from watching this 'Pain'

    "Pain & Gain" is loosely based on a true story of bodybuilders gone wild on steroids and cocaine. Mark Wahlberg, Dwayne Johnson and Anthony Mackie play the buffed anti-heroes who embark on a bizarre plot of kidnapping for ransom. Operating in the dark recesses of Miami society, they target unsavory wealthy victims with gruesome purpose and consequences.

  5. 'Silver Linings Playbook' snags Spirit awards

    SANTA MONICA, Calif. — The persistent irony of the Film Independent Spirit Awards is that as much as they're positioned as the DIY antidote to the Academy Awards, the indie film with the most Oscars recognition almost invariably reaps the greatest rewards.

  6. Depictions of violence in theater: Revelation, not nihilism

    In one of the most infamous scenes in modern drama, a group of young men in a London park stone a baby to death in its carriage. What begins as roughhousing escalates to all-out sadism until a rock is thrown at point blank range, ending the child's pitiful cries for good.

  9. 'Killer Joe': Down-and-dirty drama revels in its own sleaze ★★ 1/2

    There's a reason Matthew McConaughey's character wears a black Stetson in "Killer Joe," a self-knowingly sleazy crime drama that's simultaneously repellent and enjoyable.
    There's a reason Matthew McConaughey's character wears a black Stetson in "Killer Joe," a self-knowingly sleazy crime drama that's simultaneously repellent and enjoyable. His is no white-hat role, and both he and the movie are the better for it....

    In the late '80s a thunderbolt of inspiration struck Jack Valenti, longtime chief of the Motion Picture Assn. of America: What if his organization got rid of the X rating, besmirched by years of misappropriation by hard-core exploitation films, and...

  12. 'Killer Joe' review: Rotten people doing rotten things

    <strong>** (out of four)</strong>
    ** (out of four) If “Killer Joe” is about anything—and it barely is—it’s about how a bunch of amoral fools ignore the wishes of the only pure person among them. The NC-17-rated movie’s own crime is being more...
