Following a trial for its obscenity, Madame Bovary became a monster hit as photography was becoming more of an everyday reality. Paintings too, especially Manet's "Olympia" - according to [Walter Murch] - shook people up because the courtesan in this 1863 work is staring directly out at the viewer. (To be consistent with my roots as any teacher's No. 1 pain-in-theass-in-class, I would argue with Prof. Murch that the French salon was already doing this stark realism in 1850, evident in one of Gustave Courbet's most important paintings, "A Burial at Ornans." That canvas, pre-dating Madame Bovary and in a purely visual medium, became the first broad stroke of the realist style - at least according to this pain-in-the-ass.) Never one to shy from a challenge, Murch was sent a transcription o...

New York City has Fashion Week. The Elmwood Village has Mass Appeal. The third annual edition of the homegrown Manhattan-style fashion event takes place tonight in Lafayette Avenue Presbyterian Church at the corner of Lafayette and Elmwood avenues. After a reception at 7, the show starts at 8:30 with a runway parade of T- shirts evoking the 1979 cult film "The Warriors" and the many youth styles on Elmwood. More than 120 models will walk that runway wearing clothing from Elmwood boutiques, culminating in a display orchestrated by celebrated Buffalo-born designer Morgen Love.

(2004/1976) (Shown on DVD): Appropriately titled "Atrocity Exhibition," the latest [Andrew]'s Video Vault session bypasses even the most stomach-churning October fare for two Grand Guignols that are nigh unwatchable on their lonesome, let alone back-to-back. Director Nick Palumbo previously made Nutbag, which crams viewers inside the brain of a killer who wanders the Vegas strip offing prostitutes. Nutbag informs its follow-up Murder-Set-Pieces, the night's first film. (It'll be played in its original long version, not the shortened video one.) Looking like Ron Perlman cross-bred with Dolph Lundgren, Sven Garrett plays an almost comically intense neo-Nazi photographer-guess how he likes his steak-who begins where Nutbag left off before graduating to far sicker fare involving little girl...

At one point in his mem- oirs, "Confessions of an Actor," published in 1982, Laurence Olivier reflected that his profession generated far more toil than pleasure. "Except for playing light comedy to an enraptured audience," he wrote, "acting is not an enjoyable craft. It is interesting, certainly, and absorbing almost to a point of mania in its difficulties and problems, but not enjoyable. The intensely suffering characters, which we describe as the Punishing Roles - Lear, Othello, Macbeth, Titus, Oedipus - are not there to be enjoyed any more than a marathon is. ...
