Art for Art's Sake

On Wednesday Night, October 19, 2011, the Beaufort County Arts Council presented to their patrons and members an exclusive exhibit of the work of many artists, representing multiple mediums.
The Burroughs and Chapin Art Museum, in Myrtle Beach, exhibits Soul's Journey: The Creative Process.

Blips on Hits and Misses

What if the Rapture is not to as it has been alluded to in Thessalonians in the New Testament of the Christian Bible?
I do try to give films a good go of it when I try to enjoy them as art or simply entertainment. In terms of "Where the Wild Things Are," I tried to look at the picture trough the eyes of an unruly child, but I came up empty.

DVD Reviews

In the heart of all real men there is compassion for all things true.
The film "Knowing" uses the science fiction genre to introduce either theme that are plausible, in these days as our civilization struggles to rediscover its collective soul.
The Lorax: It is a film for the ages ... well, at least for all ages under the age of eight.

Film Reviews

The hugely popular"The Hunger Games," by virtue alone of the unavoidable comparison to the recently completed titular series of novels by Suzanne Collins, and other memorable films by cinematic directors of high standing, may have unduly influenced the opinion of many, who might have otherwise form.
Director Mark Pellington crafted a Glenn Porter screenplay, which employed four good actors, into a film that did not have to be made.
Recently, I reviewed "The Beaver," which was a purely dark comedy regarding the debilitating effects of chronic depression, resulting in severe schizophrenia. "It's Kind of a Funny of Story," which dealt with institutionalized mental health patients, was much lighter fare.

Forgotten Classics

"Forrest Gump" is one of the five best films ever made. It is the best of American art ... in scope, in tone, in message.
Infrequent Screenwriter / Director Cameron Crowe made another indelible mark in this film about himself, and how he did, or may would have interacted with notable Rock 'n' Roll artists, who humorously struggle to become dysfunctional Rock 'n' Roll stars.
David is 11 years old. He weighs 60 pounds. He is 4 feet, 6 inches tall. He has brown hair. His love is real. But he is not.

Music, Comedy and Theater Reviews

Chapter II is the continuation of a series that began with The Turnage Theater in Images: a Retrospect in Melody - Chapter I.
The renovated and recently revived Turnage Theater has fallen on some pretty hard times as of late, and is being forced to shutter its doors.
The Turnage Theater is sponsoring two community based events: one on its stage, one in Washington Park.

Upon the Stage

Some members of the crowd at the Turnage Theater, February 11, 2011, were roiled by her irreverent humor, and others just laughed their fool heads off.
In just about 60 minutes at the Turnage Theater, Friday night, 3, 2010, we got a glimpse of who Charles Dickens was, and what possessed him to create his Christmas opus, "A Christmas Carol."
