  1. Sydney Pollack on "The Sopranos:" An Appreciation

    The TV Zone

  3. Highlights of Chicago film fest travel far from Hollywood

    In "Gimme the Loot," a loose, disarming bit of larceny — and one of the bright offerings of the 48th Chicago International Film Festival — director Adam Leon's Bronx-bred characters live to tag. Teenage graffiti artists on the run, the friends dream of the day they'll make their mark on the pop-up New York Mets home-run logo at Citi Field.

  4. 'City of Fear': A nuclear-age noir to savor ★★★ 1/2

    There's an antidote for this bizarre March cold spell we're having: an equally bizarre warm front known as Cobalt 60 — the radioactive time bomb in a canister coveted by the killer played by Vince Edwards in the 1959 Columbia Pictures noir "City...

  5. 'Variety' coffee-table book displays the evolution of an iconic magazine

    As it says here, on page 64 of the glossily fascinating coffee-table book "Variety: An Illustrated History of the World From the Most Important Magazine in Hollywood," Al Capone, interviewed in his Chicago home, told Variety he was approached often to appear in gangster films but "snorted at most." He hated gangster films but liked movies and often had "private showings with professional projectionists to run the show." He was also famously self-aggrandizing, and on a wall of his home — a home protected by 70 bodyguards — it was noted his portrait hung beside portraits of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington.

  6. Revolution on the screen, on the ground in 'I Am Cuba'

    From 1964, a time when the world seemed ready to accommodate 33 revolutions per minute, the film "I Am Cuba" boasts some single-take shots so boggling, the following phrases showed up in my notebook: "How did they <em>do</em> that? A three-story-high tracking shot <em>above</em> a revolutionary martyr's funeral parade?!?" And: "Camera travels <em>down</em> the outside of the building, then noses in on Western scum drinking Bacardi by the pool, and then <em>into</em> the water!"

  10. Levon Helm, drummer and singer for The Band, dies of cancer

    Levon Helm was the rarest of musical multi-taskers: an unflappable drummer and a singer who wrung soul out of every note. He also was a terrific team player and bandmate; he made the people around him sound good.

  12. Oscar nominations a blast from the past

    John Osborne wrote the key post-World War II British drama "Look Back in Anger," later filmed in 1959. By contrast there&rsquo;s very little anger in all the look-backs among this year&rsquo;s Academy Award nominations. Oscar's unofficial slogan in early 2012 is more like "Look Back with Bittersweet Nostalgia at the Industry&rsquo;s Salad Days."
