  1. Water Water Everywhere

    The comedian Louis Black does a comedy bit on water that should resonate with every Baby Boomer. When we were kids, water was available everywhere and we drank it. We drank it from garden hoses, from fountains, from outside spigots and, in some cases, from running brooks. Then someone came up with the idea to bottle the water and sell it to us. Imagine being able to go back in time to tell your great grandparents that you had just purchased a bottle of water for $3.39. They most probably would paddle you.

  2. Bill Persky, that guy from 'That Girl'

    Emmy Award-winning sitcom writer-producer-director Bill Persky was recently giving a lecture at New York University's film school when the topic of role models came up. Someone in the class wanted to know why he believed only women needed role models in TV and movies.

  7. Omar Sy of 'The Intouchables' hits his stride

    &quot;The Intouchables" can justifiably be called an international sensation. Having taken in more than $414 million worldwide, including some $13 million in the U.S., is impressive enough. That the film is a French comedy-drama based on a simple story of two men makes it all the more impressive. The film is also France's submission for the foreign language Academy Award, a prize the country has not captured now for 20 years.

  8. Edward Burns returns to his roots

    About halfway through writing the script for &quot;The Fitzgerald Family Christmas" (which opens at the Wilmette Theatre next week), Edward Burns says he found himself at a crossroad. "Do I want to make the big, crazy, funny, holly-jolly Christmas Irish family movie?" he recalled when we spoke last week, "or do I want to go for something a little more grounded in the real world and a little more serious?"

  11. Japanese films go beyond anime, samurai at L.A. EigaFest

    Think of Japanese movies, and two things readily come to mind: samurai and anime. But organizers of the L.A. EigaFest &mdash; a showcase of contemporary cinema from the Land of the Rising Sun &mdash; aim to show Angelenos that the nation's filmmakers are up to much more than that.

  12. Northwestern tackles the career (and controversies) of Tyler Perry

    There are no sacred cows on the NBC sitcom &quot;30 Rock." The show happily skewers its own network along with any number of pop-culture phenomena, and last week's episode was no different, with a running joke aimed squarely in the direction of Tyler Perry, featuring scenes from a movie (must I say it? fictitious!) called "<a href="http://bio.tribune.com/TracyJordan">Tracy Jordan</a>'s Aunt Phatso Goes to the Hospital Goes to Jail."
