guest post by mikl-em San Francisco’s Dark Room Theater has delivered stage versions of numerous films over the years, from Clue to The Princess Bride to The Ten Commandments. All these performed on a stage that is, to quote one review, not much bigger than a big screen TV. In full disclosure, I’ve appeared in several shows there myself and one upcoming. I posted about the “Bene-fett” for this play a few months back. This ...

Filed under: Industry, Reviews, Other formats It's not that movie critics were bowled over by the storyline of Bolt, it's that most everyone who saw it in 3D came away at least reasonably impressed by the visuals. The film is far from being the first to see a widespread 3D release, but it is one of the first to be marketed as such. Unlike any time that we can remember before, Walt Disney pushed the ...

First there was Heddatron, and now a Japanese playwright is wrighting plays for robots: The play, which had its premiere at Osaka University, is one of Japan's first robot-human theatre productions. The machines were specially programmed to speak lines with human actors and move around the stage with them. Playwright Oriza Hirata says the work raises questions about the relationship between humanity and technology. The play, called Hataraku Watashi (I, Worker), is set in the ...

어린 소년의 성장과 순수한 사랑, 벰파이어물의 판타지적 요소와 고어적 요소, 그리고 우아한 영상미와 배경 음악이 묘한 조화를 이루는 한 편의 잔혹 동화라고 할 수 있겠네요. 영화 시작부터 왠 육중한 음악으로 무게를 그리도 잡으시던지. 하긴 마을 사람들 입장에서는 끔찍한 참극인 셈이긴 하죠. 그러나 메인 테마로 사용되는 음악들은 상당히 서정적인 편이어서 영화의 지배적인 정서를 긴장과 공포가 아닌 따뜻함과 아련함으로 묶어줍니다. 학교에서 괴롭힘을 당하..글 전체보기

On the train, after my show, I overhear three women reading through their dirty dancing programs. They are cross referencing the asterixes in the program with members of the actors equity association. It seems to be their first introduction to the AEA. One of them says, “I’m going to tell so and so: don’t get your hopes up.” These are the moments where I get angry at broadway and cash-in productions. The audience comes to ...
