  • There has been a series of synchronicities that led me to organize this event," explains Bill van Zyverden, a "holistic" lawyer and co-founder of the Retreat Center. He used to assign the spiritual saga as a textbook for students in his communications and ethics classes at Community College of Vermont. Actor Patrick Small in a Celestine cast that includes Annabeth Gish, Jurgen Prochnow and Hector Elizondo - later met van Zyverden, told him about the big-screen version, and helped arrange the advance peek. "Life really guides us along," he says with holistic certainty, "which is a message in the film. [Pete Seeger]'s "Guantanamera," for example, is a 1961 tune that may resonate in an entirely new way now, given the alleged abuse of detainees at the U.S. naval base on the southeastern t...

  • BEERFEST" -- *** -- Paul Soter, Erik Stolhanske, Jurgen Prochnow; rated R (vulgarity, profanity, violence, sex, nudity, drugs, ethnic slurs, brief gore). The Broken Lizard comedy troupe gained a cult following with 2001's clever comedy homage to the 1970s, "Super Troopers," and fans have been waiting for them to make something that hilarious ever since.

  • Beerfest" lets you have all the fun of getting plastered without the hangover or career-ending anti-Semitic rant. A new film from Broken Lizard, the creative cut-ups behind "Super Troopers," "Beerfest" boasts one off-color or puerile joke after another. Those who consider themselves too highbrow for it should know that the cast includes such luminaries as Oscar wiener, er, winner Cloris Leachman, Donald Sutherland and Jurgen Prochnow.

  • 'Of Gods and Men' The quiet "Of Gods and Men" isn't for everybody. For the most part, the film takes place in a monastery in the mountains of North Africa in the 1990s. If it sounds like an insomnia cure, take a pass. Fair warning, though, director Xavier Beauvois' film is a great one. The filmmaker, who also wrote the screenplay, offers up the fascinating story of a group of monks facing an incredibly tough decision. The backdrop is Algeria, and eight French Christian monks live harmoniously with their Muslim neighbors. The monks provide medical care and education for the folks in town, and are considered valuable assets to the community. Everything changes when an Islamic fundamentalist group imposes its will in town, and these Christians are a threat to Islam. The monks could return ...

  • Though they cannot supplant nor replace other methodologies, films can possibly raise new questions, provide different perspectives, and reveal unique ways of knowing about seminal subject, at least by comparison to the standard fare of academic analysis. Each one, "ethics" and "leadership," draw upon substantially different intellectual literatures, scholarly methodologies, traditional assumptions, and disciplinary perspectives. Film, often far better than social science literature, may provide a more "holistic account" of not only individual lives, but entire situations where ethical leadership is practiced. Finally, ethical leadership includes the use of symbols. Symbols abound throughout, thus giving the story meaning, depth, and power beyond simply "a typical feel-good" movie. List...

  • A mixture of rare newsreels, dramatic readings and historical horror, "Nanking" chronicles what happened in the city that was the center of China's government when the Japanese invaded in 1937. More than 200,000 Chinese were massacred, and some 20,000 rapes were recorded. The film, billed as a documentary but with some staged segments, as has come to be expected in the genre, centers on a group of Western workers who stayed behind to set up a safety zone within the ravaged city.
