  2. HBO sees the light in Liberace biopic 'Behind the Candelabra'

    NEW YORK — When the news broke in 1987 that Liberace, the famously flamboyant pianist, was dead at age 67 with what his manager had claimed was anemia brought on by a watermelon diet but was, in fact, AIDS, it made front-page headlines around the country. It was a fitting tribute for a world-famous entertainer who just a few months earlier had played three weeks of sold-out shows at Radio City Music Hall.

  3. Behind the Candelabra: Steven Soderbergh, Michael Douglas and Matt Damon on the year’s most talked-about telefilm

    Channel Guide Magazine
    Depending on how you look at it, the genesis for Behind the Candelabra, HBO’s extravagant and surprisingly emotional Liberace biopic, happened nearly 14 years ago — or more than 40. The film’s director, Steven Soderbergh, 50, says he...

  6. Film Review: Gothic snoozer 'Beautiful Creatures' isn't quite as dim as 'Twilight'

    I never thought I'd regret not having reviewed any of the "Twilight" series. Now I do, because it would have been only a few moments' work to cut and paste several paragraphs, run some search-and-replaces ("caster" for "vampire," "Ethan" for "Belle"), and fob the whole thing off as a review of the new "Beautiful Creatures."

And sometimes, as is the case with Jeremy Irons and Emma Thompson in "Beautiful Creatures," they're simply doing the best they can under the circumstances.

  9. Movie review: 'Beautiful Creatures' has brains and bewitching cast too

  11. 'Beautiful Creatures' review: Full of love, not that pretty

    <strong>**1/2 (out of four)</strong>
