  1. Jason Blum: How to succeed in the microbudget movie business

    A couple years ago the agent-turned-producer Gavin Polone ("Zombieland") detailed just how excessive movie star perks can be. Not only are actors paid a salary, he noted in a <a href="http://www.vulture.com/2011/11/gavin-polone-on-celebrity-perks.html">piece for Vulture</a>, but add-ons often include private jet travel and luxury cars provided for the actor and his or her family, elaborate trailers on set, $2,000 monthly cellphone reimbursement (<em>someone</em> needs to get a better mobile plan) plus fees and first-class accommodations for assistants, personal trainers, chefs, security and any other friends of the actor lucky enough to get folded into the deal.

  3. Jay-Z said to be contributing music to 'The Great Gatsby'

    Director&nbsp;Baz Luhrmann already tipped his hand in the trailer for his upcoming adaptation of "The Great Gatbsy." Among the songs heard was the Jay-Z-led track "No Church in the Wild," his 2011 collaboration with Kanye West. The use married an examination of the empty, ostentatious wealth of the '20s with an examination of the empty, ostentatious wealth of today. &nbsp;

  4. Bill Murray talks about a director he likes, Wes Anderson of 'Moonrise Kingdom'

    CANNES, France -- Here's Bill Murray, a rumpled riot in mismatched summer wear, talking about his ongoing screen collaboration with writer-director Wes Anderson, the filmmaker (who still shoots on actual, tactile-friendly film, Super 16 millimeter in this case) who gave us "Rushmore," "The Royal Tenenbaums,""Fantastic Mr. Fox"and other fastidiously framed and eccentrically observed studies in young people, their addled elders and their elaborate coping mechanisms:

  7. Actor Ben Gazzara dies at age of 81

    Ben Gazzara, who died Friday in New York at the age of 81, was an actor with a gruff voice and intense demeanor. His acting legacy, which included the films of John Cassavetes and originating the role of Brick in "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" on Broadway, was a catalog of masculinity in free-fall, self-doubt and sometimes willful self-glorification.

  9. Ben Gazzara dies at 81; veteran actor of stage and screen

    A New York native of Sicilian heritage, Ben Gazzara was a strongly masculine, subtly menacing screen presence with a gravelly voice that one writer described as "saloon-cured" and another said could strip paint at 50 paces.

  10. U2's growing pains in 'From the Sky Down'

    U2, the Irish pop band, is the subject of a fascinating new documentary, "From the Sky Down," premiering Saturday on Showtime. Like most modern rockumentaries, it was commissioned by the people it is about, and it will be included in some of the versions of the 20th anniversary deluxe re-release of "Achtung Baby," coming in November. (The most deluxe of these, the Uber-Deluxe package, which costs upward of $400, also comes with a pair of sunglasses like those singer Bono wore in his guise of the Fly.) But it has been made by Davis Guggenheim, the director of "An Inconvenient Truth" and "It Might Get Loud," which featured U2 guitarist the Edge, and so comes with an air of directorial independence; it is not a thing of unadulterated self-celebration.

  12. Champaign-Urbana book club

    <b>One thing to know about our club:</b> Our Champaign- Urbana book club has been meeting monthly since 1983 and has read more than 280 books. More than half of our members have belonged since the club began. Our very first book was "One Hundred Years of Solitude" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, which immediately scared off several members. Fifteen years later, we attempted the book again, and fortunately no members were lost. From years of planning our reading schedules, we've learned that it's easier to curl up with a classic in the cold winter months and that lighter fiction is best to read in the sunshine. We've tried our hand at everything from acting out "A Doll's House" by Henrik Ibsen and "Richard III" by William Shakespeare to writing haiku to going to movies based on books we've read. Most of us are Cubs fans, all of us are Blackhawks fans, some of us once lived in Chicago, many of us have children living in Chicago, and we have read many books by Chicago authors or about Chicago.
