Preteen girls recently had their Woodstock. It lasted 74 min. and probably involved an overconsumption of Junior Mints. Shut out of the sold-out live event, 2007's Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour, thousands of girls lined up in February and March to put on 3-D glasses for the movie version. And as they watched, Cyrus' concert-movie audience did something remarkable: they behaved as if it were a real show. Singing along, dancing, reaching for confetti that was falling only onscreen, the Hannah Montana fans were, yes, 8-year-olds on a sugar high...
...Hollywood after being identified before Congress as a former communist, was also a master of film noir--exemplified in movies such as 1948's police thriller The Naked City and 1950's Night and the City. Among all his solid works, though, it was Rififi--with its masterly 30-min. dialogue- and music-free robbery sequence as a centerpiece--that remained his most influential film. Dassin...
...stop to think would solve R.E.M.'s two biggest problems: Stipe's tendency toward romantic drift and Buck's stunted, decadelong desire to plug in his guitar and blow people away. Dispensing with dirge-y ballads and long musical bridges to nowhere, Accelerate clocks in at a frenzied 35 min., with five of the 11 tracks zooming by in under-3-min., leave-the-room-and-you-missed-it blurs. It sounds less like a recent R.E.M. album than three men fleeing the scene of a recent R.E.M. album...
...just a satisfaction of accomplishment and knowledge that it's good for your health, but it's also a corporeal euphoria: you simply feel better physically right afterward. A 4-ft. by 8-ft. (1 m by 2 m) floor space is sufficient for the 20-min. routine of calisthenics I developed years ago. The human animal evolved over an unimaginably large expanse of time, during which physical exertion was necessary for survival. Simulating the evolutionary norm with only 20 min. of workout per day is a stupendous bargain, if you ask me. Maxwell P. Iverson, MACOMB...
