...Left high and dry by the stunted Alexander and kitschy Spider-Man 2, audiences were desperate for a reminder of why they go to movies in the first place. Scorsese delivered, creating lovingly detailed sets, momentous speeches, and an electric dynamic between star Leonardo DiCaprio and scene-stealer Cate Blanchett, who resurrects Katharine Hepburn onscreen...

The Currier House Musical Society scored a coup by somehow managing to rent a set of awesome-looking puppets from a New York supplier (sources tell me that only five groups of such puppets exist), and made splendid use of them onstage.
