  1. 'The Big Picture': Camera-shy photographer a man with a secret ★★★

    Hiding inside the identity of someone else — someone recently disappeared, or murdered, for example — is a theme running through all sorts of crime fiction (Patricia Highsmith's Ripley mysteries) as well as cinematic variations on that theme (Michelangelo Antonioni's "The Passenger"). In the French thriller "The Big Picture" now at the Music Box, Romain Duris plays Paul, a successful but bitter attorney whose boss (Catherine Deneuve) is ready to hand the firm over to his control. Once upon a time Paul dreamed a dream of becoming a photographer.

  2. Music Box festival celebrates 70mm projection

    It's how a lot of us got hooked on movies in the first place. When I was 8 or 9 I saw "2001: A Space Odyssey" in 70 mm in Milwaukee with my mother. My memory's fuzzy on the particulars but I recall asking so many questions about the obelisk on the drive back to Racine, she had to pull over and compose herself for a minute and, as the tears streamed down her cheeks, she said quietly: "Michael, I just ... have no idea." It didn't matter. I'd never seen anything like it, and the Star Child never looked bigger, or scarier, or better.

  3. 'West of Memphis': Trio still seeking justice ★★★

    For astonishing injustice put to rest, at long last, the moviegoer has at least two options. One: "Les Miserables." And two: "West of Memphis," a strong, blood-boiling documentary from director Amy Berg, who made the similarly fine "Deliver Us From Evil," about a defrocked Catholic priest's appalling crimes and those of his protectors.

  4. 'North Sea, Texas': Belgian boy finds a soul mate

    Fragile and romantic, the well-acted Belgian coming-of-age drama "North Sea, Texas" depicts the tentative steps from friendship to love that consume a lonely 14-year-old boy in a small coastal town.

  6. 'Pippin' makes long-awaited return to Broadway

    If you&rsquo;re a community theater regular, or even attended high school or college musicals, you&rsquo;re likely familiar with the lively, foot-tappin&rsquo; tunes of &ldquo;Pippin.&rdquo; It&rsquo;s the story of a young prince, son of the French King Charlemagne (King Charles), and his search for his place in the world.&nbsp;

  7. Midwest native looks east in 'Somewhere Between'

    &quot;I am a child stuck between two countries," says 15-year-old Fang "Jenni" Lee in the insightful new documentary "Somewhere Between." Adopted at age 5 and raised in Berkeley, Calif., she is one of roughly 80,000 girls who have come to the U.S. since China first began allowing foreign adoptions in 1992.

  8. From novel to film to musical, 'Big Fish' has a date with Broadway

    The new musical “Big Fish” has itself reeled in a big catch: the Neil Simon Theatre.   Based on Daniel Wallace’s 1998 novel and the 2003 film directed by Tim Burton, the in-development production has had its eye on Broadway for several...

  9. No hockey? Watch "Slap Shot" with us. (This event sold out)

    NHL commissioner Gary Bettman locked out the players on Sept. 15. Since then, he has decided to hold his breath until he turns blue. No NHL hockey. No hope, either. This made hockey fans sad, even those in Columbus. Then Stevie Sunshine had an idea: If we couldn&rsquo;t watch the best players in the world, then we could at least watch the best hockey movie ever.

  11. 'Dead Accounts' on Broadway: Reality's in short supply in this mystery

    <strong>NEW YORK&nbsp;&mdash; </strong>At this juncture in what must at times be a very surreal life, Katie Holmes, a tabloid staple and yet a favorite daughter of Toledo, Ohio, now finds herself on Broadway in a play by Theresa Rebeck, playing a lower-middle-class character who grew up and remained single in another city in the Buckeye State. It's impossible to watch Holmes &mdash; who somehow has retained an air of fresh-faced Midwestern guilelessness &mdash; without wondering how she actually <em>feels</em> playing lonely but lovable Lorna of Cincinnati, who is what Holmes perhaps might have become had life taken a very different turn. Would she have been happy?
