Today's specials:
Steve Martin's upcoming romantic comedy Shopgirl wasn't very high on my must-see list. Until now.
BEHIND THE SCENES OF MARK HELPRIN'S STORYTELLING
Harvard Magazine investigates the house of Helprin, my favorite novelist.
Cowboy Junkies have a new covers album called Early 21st Century Blues, and it features a rendition of U2's "One." More information and streaming music here.
MORE...- Peter T. Chattaway loves Murderball... and when I saw the trailer recently, I became convinced that I will as well. And he's noticed that Happy Endings might qualify as an "abortion comedy."
- Mark Steyn has some thoughts on War of the Worlds, and I'm thinking that I agree with him. (Thanks, Chattaway, for the link.)
