...something of their air - an attractive, slightly exotic setting, characters who appear to have some substance and some curious quirks. But everything is spun toward sugary sentimentality. And relentless predictability. Vianne always knows, and we always know, what effect her concoctions will have on her customers. They always shake off their repressions and troubles at precisely the right inspirational moment. Dench's character even manages to die just when she should, with her life's work neatly completed. Made with a sort of tasteful vulgarity, this movie never disappoints the slack-minded audience's anticipation of the humanistically healing banality...

The quick release of the second installment of Everclear's album series keeps those executives busy before they can finish wringing the cash out of Songs From An American Movie Vol. 1: Learning How to Smile, while the very hint of a concept album (imaginary film soundtrack and all) reeks of pretentious art-rock stabs at achieving something "higher."

It's about time we shake the moths out of our antiquated voting procedure lest they produce yet another national farce...

The crowd, a mix of dreadlocked Berkelee students and buttoned-down middle-aged jazz fans, divided along the expected lines on whether to get up and shake it or keep to their seats and just enjoy the atmosphere during the first set. Once the second set dropped, though, it was clear that anyone not willing to get up off of that thing was going to be stuck looking at someone else's, and most everyone took to their feet...
