  1. A brighter picture: Moviegoers love digital images at Becky's and Shankweiler's drive-ins

    Only a few weeks have passed since digital projection systems debuted at the Lehigh Valley's drive-ins, Becky's in Berlinsville and Shankweiler's in Orefield.

  4. TV pitches: So I've got this idea for a show ...

    Two weeks from now, TV networks will announce their new slate of shows for next season. The majority of these series will be variations on a formula. Procedurals. High-concept sci-fi and fantasy dramas. Nighttime soaps. Comedies starring familiar faces. This is how it works. Out-of-the-ordinary shows tend to be too risky when the goal is big ratings.

  6. Let's review: Rachel Shteir and poor Chicago

    And they said the gentle art of literary criticism was dead, confined to irrelevance. Not this week, gentle reader. Not in Chicago. Not in the heat of L'affaire de Shteir. What book review in the history of Chicago literature &mdash; heck, what recent book review, period &mdash; has enjoyed the attention afforded to Rachel Shteir's review in the last Sunday's New York Times?

  9. Ebertfest: Poignant tribute to late founder

    CHAMPAIGN &mdash; Film festivals &mdash; festivals themselves, let alone films &mdash; are rarely as poignant as the one unfolding right now in this college town. The 15th Annual Roger Ebert&rsquo;s Film Festival began Wednesday without its founder, who died two weeks ago. Earlier in the evening, an hour or so before the opening-night gala, Chaz Ebert, his widow, told a reception at the University of Illinois&rsquo; president&rsquo;s home that every year after Ebertfest, on their way back to Chicago, the couple would write down movies to show next time. Before he died, Roger left her a long list, of dozens of movies to show.

  10. 1984's 'Repo Man' possesses a healthy cynicism

    Iggy Pop was living in an efficiency apartment near the Whisky a Go Go when a gangly Brit visited him, seeking a theme song for his first movie. The filmmaker was Alex Cox, a graduate of UCLA film school, and the movie was "Repo Man," which would, after a brief initial release, achieve cult status for its punk bona fides and its comic sci-fi vision of Ronald Reagan-era Los Angeles.

  11. Writing in the dark: Reflections on the literary art of Roger Ebert

    Film critics are to filmmakers what Chicago is to New York: a little envious, a lot insecure, secretly fearful of second-class status. Hypersensitive to slights, real or imagined. Important — but not essential. The world would perish without movies;...
