...Galella retrospective, which was organized by Margery King, an associate curator at the Warhol Museum, runs through Sept. 1. There are no plans for it to travel; maybe curators at museums not dedicated to an artist as starstruck as Warhol have a hard time imagining their walls filled with pictures that have titles like John Derek and Linda Evans at Sonny and Cher's Opening at the Century Plaza Hotel. Warhol knew Galella and revered him as a fellow traveler in the life devoted to pursuing stars. But Warhol was at the same time a celebrity himself. He had invitations...
...director's strongest, strangest work since the Twin Peaks days begins as the tale of a starstruck blond (Naomi Watts) who hooks up with a brunet mystery woman (Laura Elena Harring). For its first 90 minutes the film motors along this noirish route--Raymond Chandler shops at Frederick's of Hollywood--then goes defiantly, wondrously weird. This handsome, persuasively inhabited spook show reveals Lynch's talent for fooling, unsettling and finally enthralling his audience. Viewers will feel as though they've just finished a great meal but aren't sure what they've been served. Behind them, the chef smiles...
Here's one story that is true: Dylan is back. Not sort of back, making music that starstruck critics feel compelled to applaud just because Dylan's the guy who plugged in at Newport, or because he's the visionary who wrote Like a Rolling Stone, or even because he's the man who first declared that The Times They Are A-Changin'. He's all the way back--so far back he's up front--once again making music that's worth talking about, not because of what he did 10,000 yesterdays ago but because of what...
...42nd Street formula never dies. Now the starstruck kid is Chris (Mark Wahlberg), who sings with a rock "tribute" band and suffers for his art--he has to wear a nipple ring. When the singer for the real band is fired, our boy takes over and is told, "Your job is to live the story other people only dream about." Yes, we all dream of getting wasted every night and waking up with a strange person next to us. Well, rock fables have to be overstated; how else would you hear the moral over the music? Still, this...
...star, but now I realize that she's going nowhere as long as she keeps logging entries into that damn diary on her official website. You have to read it all the way through to appreciate how vapid this Britney-wannabe actually is (she even gushes about a starstruck encounter with-gag-Celine Dion), but here's a sample to tide you over: "Nick [Lachey, from 98 Degrees] was a little upset because I encouraged him to get his hair cut and they really cut it short and he was not too happy but i think he looks cute because...
