Nobody Puts Brady in the Corner
I had to hold off on writing this.  My grief was strong enough that thinking about the Bills game last night was too much.  But now I think it's best to get it out, ya know, talk about it.

As we all know, the Patriots defeated the Bills 25-24 last night. It was another Monday Night Football disaster following on the heels of the Cowboys and Browns meltdowns.  During the first 55 minutes or so, the Bills no-huddle offense worked efficiently and effectively while the defense made Brady and Moss look positively pedestrian.  With 2 minutes and 10 seconds left, the Bills

Grant Golden Review: Freud and the Sandman

THE BASICS:  E T A Hoffman's eerie, symbolist short story, as re-imagined and interpreted by Sigmund Freud.  Certainly not your everyday theatrical fare!  The New Phoenix production, devised and directed by Robert Waterhouse (their Artistic Director), plays Thurs-Sat nights through October 3rd.  There are five humans in the cast, three of whom operate puppets designed by Michele Costa.  The show is very short, running slightly less than an hour, with no intermission.

Romancing the Subject: Cindy Sherman’s Guest
This began as an interview that became a romance, and then there is this whole other documentary.  Lucky us, we get to see 15 years of Paul H-O's interviews (including Sherman's) this weekend at the Burchfield Penney...and we get to speak to the filmmaker/one time love object of Cindy Sherman.
Cindy Sherman is that wonderful photographer (model, actress, filmmaker, etc.) whose favorite subject is herself, but herself  morphed into others - so much so, that even when we know we're looking at her...well, sometimes we feel we
