Diamonds for a Cause

While the benevolence of Jewish Family Service (JFS) of Atlantic and Cape May counties began modestly in the 1930s, over the years it has grown into a multi-faceted organization that provides varied services for over 3,000 people per year of all ages and backgrounds. For the past four years, a JFS event called the Diamonds for a Cause cocktail party has been one of its most successful fundraising endeavors, and this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s version promises to be the best yet. Partnering with Bernie Robbins Fine Jewelers (whose owner, Harvey Rovinsky, is pictured above with event co-chairs Lisa Lippman, left, and Farah Burns) and Caesars Entertainment, the fourth annual event will aptly take place at the spectacular Diamond Lounge at Ballyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s from 6-8pm Thursday, March 3. A $100-per-person donation will include gourmet cuisine featuring a special appetizer by esteemed chef Luke Palladino, who along with his eponymous Italian trattoria in Northfield has plans for a new restaurant at Harrahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Atlantic City. Guests will also receive signature cocktails compliments of Zyr vodka, craft beer tastings with over a dozen premium brands, and luxurious raffle prizes. Raffle tickets are $100 each (two for $150) and every raffle ticket comes with a $100 gift certificate to Bernie Robbins Jewelers. The grand prize is of a pair of 2.5-carat diamond hoop earrings donated

by Bernie Robbins, and other prizes include a round-trip Las Vegas getaway, a shopping spree at The Pier Shops at Caesars, a VIP weekend at Harrahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Resort and more. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Each year we work to raise the bar higher for our annual cocktail party with an exclusive venue, delectable cuisine and lavish prizes,â&#x20AC;? says JFS executive director Andrea Steinberg. For more information or to purchase tickets, call 822-1108 or see jfsatlantic.org. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Ray Schweibert

Wheel Outrageous

Since early September, Bobby Lynchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Crazy Wheel has kept things lively and unpredictable at Eden Lounge on Monday nights.

OR A YOUNG KID TO TAKE UP the piano without any prompting from parents and on his own initiative may seem somewhat atypical, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what Bobby Lynch did as a grade-schooler growing up in northern New Jersey.

Also atypical is the varied path Lynchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career took after he mastered the instrument and became a professional musician, including an interactive, whimsical sort of variety show called Bobby Lynchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Crazy Wheel that has been appearing at â&#x20AC;&#x201D; among other places â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Harrahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eden Lounge every Monday night (8pm-midnight) for about the last six months.

The Crazy Wheel concept grew out of a dueling-piano gig Lynch once did, and sort of evolved into an anythinggoes variety show that he can tailor to audiences with varying degrees of social decorum (Eden Lounge would rate about a â&#x20AC;&#x153;PGâ&#x20AC;?). His regular weekly Wheel gigs in Irish pubs up near his hometown of Denville can get a bit risquĂŠ, but the A.C. show is modified to include everyday topics like movie and TV trivia, name that tune or â&#x20AC;&#x153;hair band,â&#x20AC;? famous catch phrases and others. Whenever a wheel spin lands on a subject, guests guess at trivia questions (flashed up via text or video on flat-screen TVs) to earn keepsake prizes, and interspersed throughout the evening is live music, a DJ, dancing and occasional karaoke. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The theme has evolved drastically,â&#x20AC;? says Lynch, who has performed on the Las Vegas club/lounge circuit as well as with noted groups Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes, the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Gary U.S. Bonds and others, all before the age of 30 (which heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be in May). â&#x20AC;&#x153;It really started out in an Irish Pub with some risquĂŠ topics on the wheel.

Here itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a different story. You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do it that way, but we do stuff like TV themes where we make these little video clips from old school shows like Saved By the Bell, 90201, the Golden Girls, whatever.

If the audience feels like being a part of it, they just yell out the answer then go back to doing their thing. We give out stuff when they get it right like buckets of candies, silly toys, GI Joes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter what you give them, they act happy that they got something.â&#x20AC;?

For several years Harrahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ran a karaoke gig on Monday nights, but it grew routine when the lounge started seeing the same singers doing the same songs week to week, so a change seemed in order. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do some karaoke, but we bounce it in between all the other stuff weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing,â&#x20AC;? says Lynch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to have 30 karaoke singers in a row and have everybody leave the bar. We try to structure it so that it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get old. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been to karaoke places where itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the same people signing the same songs, it can get old fast. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We really just let the night go wherever it steers us,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have anything planned out specifically. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any set list, we literally just make it a function of assessing the crowd and gearing the music and trivia to that. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s say the crowdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mostly 40-and-up â&#x20AC;&#x201D; weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll knock off the rap questions and put up something they can relate to more. We have different ways to gear our videos, and in between weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll play a little bit of music and people might get up and dance for a while.â&#x20AC;?

And when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all over, Lynch packs up and makes the two-hour drive back up to Denville. This Saturday, Feb. 26, he returns to Harrahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for a midnight-3am gig with his full band, including Danny McCarthy (bass), Al Budd (drums) and P.J. Zitarosa (guitar). â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is all Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever done â&#x20AC;&#x201D; playing gigs, weddings, the club scene, whatever,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My parents had a piano in the house, I started playing it, and they supported everything I did. Ideally, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d love to play seven nights per week with a full band. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what I love to do, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what I want to be doing for the next 30 years. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m here for the long haul.â&#x20AC;? Ă&#x160;N

ITH A TL AN T I C C I T Y seemingly poised on the brink of its long-awaited comeback, an endangered form of casino entertainment is also showing signs of new life.

After lying dormant for years, traditional old-school casino revues — the kinds that titillate audiences with scantily clad showgirls and mildly suggestive choreography — have resurfaced.

Although casinos never completely abandoned production shows as a fixedcost alternative to more costly headliners, the look of the revues has changed dramatically.

Shows that once focused on flesh, feathers and towering headpieces on statuesque showgirls were gradually replaced by revues that stripped away the not-so-subtle sexiness. In their places emerged theme-type shows that paid tributes to various musical genres or put the spotlight on illusionists or entertainer-athletes in the style of the successful Cirque du Soleil series so popular in Las Vegas and on worldwide tour.

The Atlantic City Hilton, whose owners are seeking a buyer for the struggling, cashstrapped resort, last week debuted a new floorshow titled Boardwalk Follies.

The show’s format recalls the early years of the Atlantic City casino era by wrapping production numbers around performances by a featured singer and a pair of variety acts.

The Hilton show is built on a timehonored casino showroom formula.

Boardwalk Follies features musical production numbers performed by a line of sexy young dancers; a featured singer, Jacklyn Maffucci; an exciting young magician named Michael Turco; and the heartpounding thrills of an aerial act known as the Silk Sisters.

But it’s the new show at the re-energized Resorts Casino Hotel, now under the management of owner and casino turnaround maven Dennis Gomes, that stole the spotlight with its production titled Moonshine Follies — and that was several weeks before it even opened.

In a stunt lifted right out of old-time Las Vegas — which is Gomes’ native stomping grounds — the throwback production attracted national headlines and air time with a controversial billboard.

The board was as strategically placed as the strings of beads that did little to hide the shapely bare tush of a young woman that jumped off the sign. The billboard greets thousands of people who arrive in

Atlantic City every day via the Atlantic City Expressway because it towers directly over the New Jersey Transit train station at the Convention Center.

Although a handful of people expressed indignation at the fleshy photo, the billboard also brings to mind an observation from the late Atlantic City attorney Murray Fredericks when he was asked about the city’s vice-ridden days during Prohibition.

“If the people who came to town had wanted Bible readings, we’d have given ’em that,” Fredericks was quoted as saying in Boardwalk Empire, author Nelson Johnson’s warts-and-all historical account of Atlantic City’s tawdry and lawless past, and the inspiration for the HBO series of the same name.

“But nobody ever asked for Bible readings,” Fredericks added. “They wanted booze, broads and gambling, so that’s what we gave ’em.”

Ironically, Johnson even figured in this push to promote Resorts’ new show and improve the bottom line. In his day job as a New Jersey Superior Court judge, Johnson ruled that New Jersey Transit, which owns the land upon which the billboard sits, couldn’t touch the sign before a full hearing scheduled for March 10.

Gomes, who’s as well known for his marketing stunts as he is for revitalizing struggling casinos, noted that people see more flesh on the beach every summer than the billboard reveals. And, he pointed out, the new look and marketing strategy at his casino recalls the 1920s, a fairly decadent period in American history.

“We are the ’20s,” says Gomes. “We are fun, full of life and ready to bring the excitement of the 1920s to the stage. This show is sure to keep audiences entertained and the caliber of the performance will be second to none in Atlantic City.”

Gomes, who once ran the Tropicana Casino Resort and, before that, the Trump Taj Mahal, imported Mario Bazinet, French-Canadian producer, to create Moonshine Follies. N

HEN CAESARS ATLANTIC CITY begins its World Series of Poker circuit events on Wednesday (March 2), itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certain that the folks at the WSOP are going to be watching the turnouts closely.

After what some analysts called a disappointing showing for the circuit events at Harrahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Resort in December, the city could use a little spring weather to help this event along.

The Harrahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event, which included a $10,000 buy-in regional championship, was played during an unusually cold December and was plagued by some snowy days. That regional championship, for example, drew only 136 players, well off from the turnouts for other circuit regionals.

Still, Harrahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Resort did see a turnout of 1,250 players for the opening event, a record field for the casino.

While the Caesars event doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t include a regional championship, it should certainly benefit from a better positioning on the WSOP circuit schedule.

First of all, there are only two East Coast stops left on the 2010-11 circuit â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Atlantic City and at Harrahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chester starting April 27. While the Caesars event is followed by another circuit event March 10 that does feature a regional championship event, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at Harrahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rincon in San Diego, which probably wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t draw too many East Coast players. In fact, the two events overlap a couple of days.

Also, only five circuit events remain after the Caesars events before the championship event in Vegas May 27, right before the WSOP itself kicks off. That means any East Coast players looking to pick up circuit points or some event wins to qualify for the championship tournament are likely to be in town.

The events start off Wednesday, March 2, with a $300 + $50 No Limit tournament at noon. The championship event, a $1,500 + $150 event, is set for March 11. You can see the full schedule at A.C. Weeklyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s poker blog, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Real Deal,â&#x20AC;? at acweekly.com/poker.

While the circuit event will bring some big tournament action to the city after a slow February, it could also coincide with a major development in Atlantic Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chances to be the first casino city to regulate and run online gambling.

FOOD FIGHT

by Mike Pritchard

facebook.com/ACWeekly

Gov. Chris Christie should make a decision (he has until March 3) on whether to sign or veto a bill that will allow the state to set up online casino gambling, including poker, to New Jersey residents.

However, according to a report in The New York Post, which quotes an unnamed source, Christie is likely to veto the bill.

The Post reports that Christie is being lobbied heavily on both sides of the issue, but is leaning towards the veto. The Governor hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t commented on the bill publicly.

The main sponsor of the bill, state Sen. Raymond Lesniak (D-Union), says he would not try to override the veto, despite the bill passing by large margins in both the state Assembly and Senate, The Post reports.

One of the principal voices against the online gaming bill has been Caesars Entertainment, which owns four A.C. properties. The company argues that the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts to legalize online gaming would interfere with a potential federal bill to allow online gambling.

To be fair, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not entirely clear if the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan would survive a federal challenge. Right now online gambling is not allowed under federal law. Proponents of New Jerseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s law say that by limiting the bill to state residents, it would not come under the federal ban and would leave Atlantic City in a great position to act should the federal ban be lifted.

But Caesars Entertainment also clearly wants to see any online operations it runs located in Nevada, not Atlantic City.

Quite frankly, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing that this argument that would benefit Las Vegas could derail the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts. And New Jersey is hardly alone in considering allowing intra-state gambling as moves are underway in states such as Florida and California.

New Jersey could quickly go from a leader in online gaming, to nothing at all.

Complicating things, however, is a poll released Monday by Farleigh Dickinson University, which holds that 67 percent of New Jersey residents oppose allowing Internet gaming through Atlantic City.

That could be the final straw for Christie, especially if rumors of his presidential aspirations are true. Going against the wishes of two thirds of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s voters isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exactly appealing.

And in the meantime, Atlantic City misses out again. N

FEBRUARY 26

GRAND BALLROOM • 7:30PM

N THURSDAY, FEB. 17,I went back to my high school alma mater to witness the inaugural “Atlantic City High School Superlative Awards Show.”

I honestly thought it was going to be a stuffy awards presentation for all of the A-list students, and the same four kids who had perfect attendance since junior high school. As the lights went down I was pleasantly surprised as the DJ kicked up some Rhianna and the seniors started to make their way down the isle (the red carpet is all that was missing).

The young ladies looked very stylish, many of them wearing beautiful cocktail dresses and other “after six” wear.

The gentlemen’s styles ranged from Wall Street-ready to Roc-A-Wear. One thing that was plain to see was that this evening was about the senior class of 2011.

Senior Elijah Langford opened the show by explaining that the evening was about celebrating their hard work as students and having a good time before they moved on. “Other than prom night and graduation, when is the next time we are all going to be in the same place like this?” Langford asked.

Langford then prepped the crowd for a 10-minute video of the awards show host, Bow Legged Lou. The video chronicled Lou’s contribution with the R&B group Full Force and included (edited for language) clips from the films House Party and Krush Groove.

Bow Legged Lou did a great job as host, engaging the crowd and cracking jokes all night.

The class superlative awards are those also included in the yearbook, for things like “Most Likely To Succeed” to “Teacher’s Pet” and “Teacher’s Worst Nightmare.”

Besides the awards themselves, the

evening was filled with highlights. There was an appearance by a Rick Ross impersonator that fooled most of the crowd. At one point, members of the school administration — including teachers, coaches and principals — got on stage to dance “The Dougie.” Early in the night the principal came out dressed as the school Viking mascot.

After the show I found out that the idea for the award show came from Elijah Langford — his hard work and vision paid off. Earlier that week I had spoken with someone who said they wished ACHS would bring back the Senior Fashion Show.

Well, I can say that this event was on par with that past fun-and-interactive event. I enjoyed myself at the ACHS Superlatives Awards Show and I hope that young Mr. Langford has a great junior in mind to pass the baton to, because I hope to be a presenter at next year’s awards. The award show should be an annual event that the students can take charge of.

As an alumni of ACHS, I was very proud.

As a creative writing teacher I can brag that I’ve had opportunity to work with both the winners of the “Most Likely to Succeed” awards — Mr. Anthony Cox Jr. and Ms. Bianca Dennis. In fact my Teen Voices radio show had presented Dennis with our “Outstanding Personality of the Month Award” just the night before! ÊN

The start of the new year might have already come and gone, but that doesn’t mean the resolutions you made need to fall by the wayside. Research shows that one third of people who have made New Year’s resolutions will have broken them by the end of January. When it comes to sticking to your resolutions, especially those that will help to shrink your waistline, it’s the simple everyday tweaks to your routine that can make a big difference in how you look and feel, all year long.

According to a recent survey conducted

by Spenda Sweetener Products, with the support of Shape magazine, more than a third of American women think about their weight three or more times per day, and 54 percent of them think that they will reach their ideal weight this year, but are unsure of the best way to do so.

“It’s important women know that it’s the simple changes that are not only crucial to the weight loss process, but are also the healthiest and most effective in the long run,” said Sharon Liao, Shape magazine senior health and nutrition editor. “By incorporating healthy habits into their daily lives, women can start to see real results that will last well beyond the first few months of the year and quite possibly last for the rest of their lives.”

Make this year your best yet by getting back on the “resolution bandwagon” and following these healthy tips.

Reward Yourself

Stay on track with little rewards. Buy yourself a cute workout shirt to get excited about going to the gym. Go out to the movies or book that vacation youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been dreaming about taking. In fact, more than one third of women said that an upcoming vacation would inspire them to lose weight. By putting a vacation on the schedule, you may feel extra motivated to achieve your weight-loss goals.

Be Smart About Snacking

Mid-morning munchies? An afternoon snack attack? Or a late-night nosh? No matter what time of day, sometimes the body just seems to be calling out for something to nibble on. But snacking doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be a bad thing â&#x20AC;&#x201D; if you know how to do it right.

Snacking with wellness in mind can help curb your appetite and keep you from overeating at meal times. Here are some tips, ideas and recipes to help you out.

Plan Ahead. We all need a little pick-

me-up during the day. So rather than hitting the vending machine at work or the fast food place when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re out, pack wholesome snacks such as apples or almonds to have on hand when the munchies hit. With nutritious snacks at the ready, snackerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s remorse is sure to be a thing of the past.

Put a vacation on your schedule. You may feel extra motivated to achieve your goals.

Practice Portion Control. Snack time should be enjoyable, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important not to overindulge. A portion-controlled snack such as Lean Cuisine Spring Rolls makes it easy to snack deliciously while enjoying a balanced treat. Packed with 100 percent white meat chicken, melted cheeses, crisp vegetables and flavorful sauces, these tasty spring rolls are

200 calories per serving and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready in just minutes. Find out more at www.

LeanCuisine.com.

Pay Attention to What You Eat. Mindless eating leads to overeating.

Instead of munching while you work or sneaking a snack during your favorite television show, eat only to satiate hunger.

Being aware of the foods you consume and why you are consuming them will help you better manage calorie intake and avoid eating when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not hungry.

Brushing to a Healthier You

We all know that having a bright, white smile is great for your looks, but did you also know that there is a connection to your overall health?

Recent research has found that periodontal disease, which causes sensitive and inflamed gums, can be a risk factor for heart and lung disease, diabetes, and a number of other systemic diseases.

So it is important to take the necessary steps to ensure having the healthiest gums possible. Good oral hygiene is one

of the best methods of prevention. Start by brushing teeth at least twice a day and flossing daily.

To take your oral care routine even further, look for toothpaste that contains baking soda, from the brand synonymous with it for more than 150 years, such as Arm & Hammer Complete Care toothpaste, or A&H Advanced Whitening with Baking Soda & Peroxide. Baking soda has long been recognized for its benefits, such as neutralizing odors and providing an effective cleaning alternative while providing brushers with that â&#x20AC;&#x153;fresh from the dentistâ&#x20AC;? clean feeling. It also acts as a natural buffer that helps to maintain good pH levels inside the mouth by neutralizing acids, helping keep breath fresh for hours.

And using a toothpaste containing baking soda doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just mean a healthier smile â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it can mean a whiter smile, too. After all, baking soda is great at removing stains caused by coffee, tea, red wine or smoking. N

Spice Up Your Workout with Zumba

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been billed as the gym workout that feels like a party. Zumba classes at Tilton Fitness merge Latin music and easy dance moves with aerobic interval training, allowing participants to burn up to 700 calories in one hour of pure fun. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Zumba is better than any cardio machine out there,â&#x20AC;? said Erin Carpenter, a group instructor at Tilton Fitness. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a one hour class that flies by because you feel like you are out dancing with your friends.â&#x20AC;?

The routines feature interval training sessions where fast and slow rhythms and resistance training are combined to tone and sculpt your body while burning fat.

Add some Latin flavor and international zest into the mix and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a workout thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to love. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love the music, the energy and the people. We give each other the extra oomph to keep going,â&#x20AC;? said Cinthia Fiorentino, who has experienced the benefits first-hand after having joined the Zumba party at Tilton Fitness twice a week for an entire year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel healthier, toned and full of life. I think I look great and have lots of confidence. I never knew I could move like this!â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;People need a workout they will look forward to doing every day or a few times a week, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what Zumba delivers,â&#x20AC;? added Carpenter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You leave feeling happy and energized. The music is awesome and I encourage the class to shout out to let me know they are having a good time.â&#x20AC;?

According to the trainers at Tilton Fitness, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll grow firmer, stronger, and gain greater endurance after just a few Zumba classes. Beginners and all ages, shapes and sizes are welcome. All you need is a fun-loving attitude and a desire to move. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s addictively fun,â&#x20AC;? Carpenter added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what keeps people coming back.â&#x20AC;?

Ch o o se a h i g h er l evel o f care HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Vineland continues to offer comprehensive inpatient physical rehabilitation to help patients reach maximum functional and cognitive outcomes. Using the most advanced technology, our experienced staff works with each patient, developing individualized programs to better meet speciďŹ c needs.

where. Tossed with plenty of fresh, bright green peas and finished by Pecorino Sardo â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Sardinian sheepâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s milk cheese â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the firm, house-made fettucine served as an ideal vehicle of conveyance for other ingredients.

My entree, Bistecca Sorrentina, refers geographically to the spectacular coastal region just south of Naples.

Generally, when one sees â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sorrentoâ&#x20AC;? or some version of it on a bill of fare, eggplant will be involved in the dish. This proved to be no exception. Certified angus beef, pounded thin into twin cutlets, was layered with Melanzana and Proscuitto. Finished with a generous layer of molten mozzarella, the massive portion was plated with a lustrous tomato-demi.

We loved the thinking here: eggplant is often utilized on vegan menus as a sort of ersatz meat. In this context, the shaved layer of vegetable inherently complimented those lusty hunks of beef. Yielding to the point of being nearly fork-tender, the strip steak retained itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s individual character.

This is a dish that despite those ingredients, could have easily failed if overcooked or too aggressively seasoned.

Happily, every component succeeded on itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own. When combined, they performed like talented musicians, each bringing special qualities, then stepping back and allowing others their moment in the spotlight.

Our last taste on this evening was a dessert assortment. We particularly enjoyed the slice of chocolateorange cake and marveled at the finer points of service evidenced. Throughout, utensils were replaced without hesitation, extra plates provided for sharing. Little niceties that separate the very best personnel and elevate a customerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s evening.

With dessert, our lead server even went so far as to provide us with the brand of coffee being utilized, as we mentioned that it just might be the very best cup of decaf weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever encountered.

For someone unaccustomed to surprises, this was a lasting, highly pleasant one. Ă&#x160;N E-mail Frank Gabriel at fgabriel@acweekly.com

and cooled prior to service. This resulted in firm, rather than rubbery texture. The pearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soft, harmonious nature paired nicely with mascarpone â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Italyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ritzy cream cheese â&#x20AC;&#x201D; plus the salty punch of Proscuitto.

My dining partnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s selection was a colorful creation.

Pencil-point spears of asparagus lined up like soldiers alongside sliced hearts of palm and golden beets. A passion fruit dressing provided just the right balance of sweetness and acidity.

From a list of seven pasta items, my guest opted for the most unusual: fettucine con piselli e pancetta. And while noodles with peas and smoky bacon may be a standard in many trattorias and homes, this version stood out courtesy of the main ingredient.

Delicate strands of fettucine, formed with carrot and cilantro, a combination you are not likely to see else-

ITH TWO FULL DECADES OF DINING professionally under my burgeoning belt, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not often surprised. But on an evening when Atlantic Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s streets were choked with Gaga-related holiday weekend traffic, Robertoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ristorante at Trump Plaza served up a stunner.

Start with the real estate adage about location. The ivorytoned facilityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wide windows offer one of few ocean-fronting casino dining venues. Situated six floors up, Robertoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s view is an epic spread of beach, boardwalk and ocean. And on this evening, an eerie, cloud-laden full moon.

Looking for the â&#x20AC;&#x153;wowâ&#x20AC;? factor? You will surely find it here. Our food introduction came by means of an antipasti tray. With roasted peppers of red and yellow hues, salami, Proscuitto, discs of mozzarella, cubed Parmigiano Reggiano, halved artichokes and a toss of lemony, lightly dressed arugula, it offered a delightful opportunity to sample and graze.

The kitchenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next offering was a similar tapas-style plate, but one composed entirely of seafood. Moving left to right, a grilled jumbo shrimp curled comfortably atop a round crouton. Calamari, scallops and mussels perched in a lettuce shell, marinated and served in the traditional format associated with New Yorkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Little Italy. The very best part, though, was a thinly-pounded square of ahi tuna crudo.

Most folks donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t associate tuna with Italy, but that peninsula of the country has a long, storied relationship with those prized Mediterranean behemoths. An iridescent red piece of flesh â&#x20AC;&#x201D; prized as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;toroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; by the Japanese â&#x20AC;&#x201D; was simply presented with quality olive oil. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve said it before, and will say it again, when dealing with the very best products of the ocean, keep it simple.

This hands-off treatment allowed the razor-thin tuna to literally melt upon consumption. Layers of flavor, including a floral, fruity quality, appeared, flooding our senses.

A salad course brought me a poached, vanilla-scented pear accented by mascarpone and crispy Proscuitto.

Centered on a bed of frisee and bibb, then doused with a champagne vinaigrette, the fruit was properly cooked

And his playing perfectly suits a casino lounge as his repertoire includes dozens upon dozens of jazz and pop standards, along with some R&B and even rock tunes.

Before Resorts changed ownership last year, Powell says nearly every time he played the piano — taking a break from gambling — in addition to the casino

executives, employees, patrons and others who would stop and hear him play, he would always draw security, who, under the “old regime,” would chase him away.

Same goes for Saunders.

“People always come up to me, and I’ve been playing off and on at this piano for several months,” says Powell, “and [they] tell me how I should be getting paid for playing my music here. Even with the old regime, the concierges, the restaurant and casino employees, [and] the executives would all come by and say how good [my music sounded]. Even the maitre-de here at Capriccio loves it when I play here.”

After having tried for months to get proper permission to play at the piano to no avail, Powell persisted. He can now be found at the piano outside Capriccio, along with other musicians such as Saunders, on any given day or night of the week. There is no set schedule with regard to the piano and who plays it at the moment.

Like the violinist, Colin Matthews, who plays in the lobby at Resorts on a regular basis, Powell is hoping to get some work at the casino, playing in a lounge or even in a transformed dining level area that he has his own ideas about.

Powell comes with years of experience with regard to playing for an audience.

“I try to play for the audience,” says Powell. “My sense is that the kind of people who listen to a solo pianist is not the 35-and-under crowd. There’s a 45-andolder crowd who appreciate the concept of a pianist playing dinner cocktail conversation music, and what they want to hear are the tunes. They want to hear songs. ...

If you give them a melody, a very simple tune, then they’ll stop by and listen.

“Then you can segue into another melody and, if you want, improvise in between. As long as they can recognize the melody — it’s almost comforting.

“I told this guy from player development [who has since moved on to another casino],” adds Powell. “Dim the lights [here], bring some tables and chairs out here, with candlelight, and give [patrons] a little wine list. And now you’ve got an entire area where people can be reading the menus from all of the restaurants [at Resorts while listening to piano music.] I see people stop and linger outside of the restaurants all the time to get a feel for the ambiance and the menu at Capriccio.

“Even when the gate’s closed and they know it’s not opened, they still come and read the menu.”

Along with studying culinary options for a far-off meal, the Resorts patrons are drawn to Powell’s music. “It soothes them. It’s like comfort food,” he says.

So what does Gomes think about the idea of transforming this area of his casino’s dining level?

“Currently we are evaluating a number of options for the entire property, including the dining level,” says Gomes.

“Resorts has a great history and one we are looking forward to exploring and using to recreate the 1920s era with the same style and dynamic energy. The idea of a piano-lounge is one of the many great options the new Resorts has been presented with and we are looking forward to unveiling new amenities.”

ILLIE SAUNDERS WAS HAVING a bad day. It was earlier this year and he was feeling “down in the dumps,” according to his longtime friend and fellow church member Christian Pascal.

So the Hillside, N.J., resident took a ride down to Atlantic City and walked into Resorts Casino Hotel.

Once Saunders, 53, got inside the opulent casino, he made a bee-line, not to the gaming tables, but to the piano stationed right outside of Capriccio on the property’s “dining level.”

“From what I understand,” says Pascal, “he got on the piano and played for a while and [new Resorts owner] Dennis Gomes heard the music from upstairs and he came down, listened to Will play, talked to him for a while and then took Will out to dinner. [Will] told me that Resorts loved it.”

Then, on a subsequent visit, adds Pascal, “Dennis Gomes put him up for three days and Will ate at the buffet and played the piano and had a great time.

But he’s still so modest about his playing.

He [truly] has a gift.”

Saunders’ gift — a natural, almost scary talent that comes directly from his soul and out onto the piano keys — caught the attention of Gomes, who while busy doing minor things like taking over the city’s first casino, re-branding it in a Roaring ’20s theme, running it, etc., was blown away when he heard the piano music from his upstairs office one day in early January.

On a separate occasion, he heard both Saunders and another frequent pianist in front of Capriccio, Ron Powell, playing.

“I was captivated by their passion and talent,” Gomes tells AC Weekly. “Some people have that it quality that puts them in a special category and Will is definitely one of those people. It is an honor to have him playing in my casino.”

Humble, and extremely modest, Saunders’ story is fascinating. He has several children, grew up in the Newark area and turned his life around about 10 years ago with the help of his church.

Saunders is a non-gambler, doesn’t drink or smoke, and heads a charity organization in the Irvington, N.J., area called Christian Fellowship Council Worldwide.

He’s also a devoted family man.

Right now Powell and Saunders are encouraged as, within the past month, Gomes told the two pianists who were both at the piano on the same late January evening, that they could play anytime they wanted. The security force at Resorts has been notified as well.

“You guys are welcome to play here any time you want,” Gomes told Powell and Saunders, banging his fist softly on the piano top. “You can come in any time. If anyone gives you any trouble just tell them I told you that you could play here.”

Powell, smiling, shook on it with Gomes.

Saunders looked up from the piano, shaking his head in gratitude.

“And I don’t care if you even put a tip jar right here,” Gomes said, as his hands made the shape of a cocktail lounge tip jar in the air over the right side of the piano.

Free entertainment for Gomes. Free entertainment for patrons. And now a paying gig — at least via tips — for the two piano men.

“The music has been a fantastic addition to the energy and ambiance to Resorts,” Gomes says. “We are lucky to have such talented musicians choose to play at the new Resorts and the guests have really come to enjoy the rejuvenated atmosphere that they contribute to with their music.”

As a result of the serendipitous power meeting at the piano that January evening as Gomes was heading into Capriccio for a dinner, Powell has since been placing a tip jar atop the piano.

“I put a glass on the piano,” says Powell.

“Dennis [Gomes] was the first to offer a gratuity!”

Powell, whose straight-jazz playing is reminiscent of Ramsey Lewis, Nat King Cole and Dave Brubeck, says over the past few weeks, since Gomes OK’d the tip jar, the tips have been nice. However, as Powell tells AC Weekly, he’s very interested in a regular gig in Atlantic City to support his fixed income, which relies heavily on his limited social-security benefits.

With a repertoire that includes hundreds of songs, from jazz standards such as “Stardust” and “My Favorite Things,” to Beatles tunes and Thelonious Monk compositions, Powell could be a perfect fit for a casino lounge.

But where Powell knows about the history of American music and jazz piano music in particular, Saunders could be considered a savant as he has never studied music, is not familiar with the musicians he sounds like and doesn’t even listen to the types of music he plays — boogie-woogie, blues, jazz, and stride-piano playing included.

He’s a natural and in his early 50s could be on the verge of something big.

Saunders had initially come to Resorts

with two dollars in his pocket, says Pascal, who believes Saunders chose Resorts to go to out of all the places in Atlantic City because he had once been there before selling “spa products.”

And he remembered that piano, parked outside Capriccio in the wide open space surrounded by several of Resorts’ finedining restaurants and around the corner from the Boogie Nights dance club and the Starlight Ballroom.

Saunders, says his current piano teacher, Derek Fairclough, is just beginning to understand how much of a gifted musician and pianist he is. He plays by ear with Art Tatum-quality musicianship pouring out of his very soul.

“I’m his piano teacher right now, but I’m hoping he can teach me at some point,” says Fairclough, a professional classical pianist, veteran rock-band keyboardist and Liverpool native who gives private piano lessons.

feels that Saunders’ talents are beyond teachable.

He’s already got it.

“He wants to learn Mozart and Beethoven and is very eager to learn, and he’s doing OK,” says Fairclough, “but I told him, ‘Willie, you need to play in front of people. You can’t stifle this talent anymore. You can’t just sit in the house and play, you’ve got to get out in front of an audience.’ He does play at his church, but I think his best shot in the long run would be to have a bass player and a drummer with him, because his jazz playing is so authentic. And not being a jazz pianist myself, but from what I’ve listened to — Oscar Peterson, Errol Garner and those sort of [legendary pianists] — I wouldn’t know the difference. I mean Willie is just as good as any jazz pianist.”

Not only does Fairclough think Saunders can hang with the best of them on the keys, he’s also amazed at Saunders’ natural

‘What’s most impressive about it is, he’s never had any lessons and he’s never listened to any jazz — this comes from his soul.’

Fairclough first met Saunders at a Guitar Center music store in central New Jersey.

“We sort of bumped into each other,” recalls Fairclough, who believes Saunders is “good enough” to play the top jazz clubs in New York, even as he is just now learning how to read music.

“He was interested in what I was playing and he asked to take lessons from me, and I was comfortable with that; I never thought I was ever going to see this guy again.

“Then he sat down and started playing and then I really thought I was never going to see him again! He just blew me away and I was like why does this guy want lessons from me? He should be teaching me. I thought, this guy must be toying with me. I couldn’t believe how he played, you know?

“What’s most impressive about it is, he’s never had any lessons and he’s never listened to any jazz — this comes from his soul.”

Fairclough soon noticed a few things about Saunders.

“Just over the couple [lessons] that we’ve had so far, I’ve come to realize that he’s the kind of person who puts everybody before himself and who leaves little time for himself. A very generous person and a very good-natured person.”

Fairclough has been teaching Saunders to read music for a few weeks now, but

ability to play by ear and, without even noticing, his inclination to pick up the key and chords and melody of the 1920s -era music being piped in at Resorts.

“You may see some lounge pianists or those sort of pianists who play one set of stuff with the right hand and some other things with their left hand.

“Willie has a split brain. He’s playing as if he has a brain for his right hand and a brain for the left hand; they are totally separate.

And that’s nearly impossible to learn, even for a classical pianist. But what Willie does is like he’s ambidextrous. It’s like he has two instruments. I could never do what Willie does, and I’ve been playing for 50 years.

“It’s almost like he doesn’t know how talented he is. When he plays, like I said, the music is coming from his soul. And listening to him is like looking through a kaleidoscope. You see a beautiful pattern, and then you turn the wheel, and once it’s gone it’s gone. You can never get it back or hear that beautiful music again. Once Willie’s played it, it’s gone. I’ve tried to convince him that we need to record it. It’s almost like he’s channeling some sort of spirit when he’s playing the piano.”

Now that Saunders has wowed Gomes, Fairclough says Saunders feels as if he needs to learn how to read music in order to become a more well-rounded musician.

“But personally I don’t think that it’s even a requirement for him at this stage,” says Fairclough. “I would like to see him playing at clubs in New York at least; that’s where he belongs. With a trio or something like that. I’m truly convinced that if we give him some structure he could be a really big name. Like I said, both of his hands are coming from soul. He’s not thinking in chords, he’s just playing from his soul and that’s a gift.”

On a bitter cold February afternoon, Saunders and Powell are perched along side one another at the piano bench, playing together and having a ball. The tip jar isn’t out, a crowd has gathered to hear the music, and all the two men want to do is play music.

“This guy has talent that you won’t believe,” says one Resorts guest. And they could be talking about either one of the pianists.

“I’m here a couple times a week,” says Powell. “Usually for a couple hours between 4-9pm.”

Saunders doesn’t say when he’ll be back, but he has been coming down a few times a month to play. After playing the piano together for a while with Powell, Saunders is on his way upstairs to stop in and say hello to Gomes before he heads back up to Hillside.

He’ll probably thank Gomes again for the opportunity just to play the piano.

“I don’t have a piano,” he says. “So I come here to practice.”

But, as Fairclough notes, Saunders doesn’t need to practice; he needs to be heard.

It could be the perfect opportunity for Resorts to capitalize on the two pianists’ tremendous talents — especially in connection with the casino’s evolving Roaring ‘20s theme re-brand.

For now, each member of the potential lounge act tag-team of Powell and Saunders is grateful to have the opportunity to play for tips.

Who knows what’s ahead for the two pianists. Perhaps they’ll become a new sensation at the retro-themed Resorts.

With Powell’s experience, extensive repertoire and elegant, romantic style; and Saunders’ raging talent, good-nature and extraordinary gift, the two pianists — the new piano men at Resorts — could make for an intriguing lounge act in Atlantic City one day.

Possibly at Resorts.

“I always keep an open mind,” says Gomes, “and with their talent, the future could hold many opportunities for all of us invested in seeing the new Resorts thrive.” n

filet mignon trio, each with a delectable topping — through March 31 that’s only $49.95 per person. See more about these specials at thepalm.com/atlantic-city.

If you happen to go out to dinner on a Tuesday evening, why not stay in the city?

Here’s something else you may not know about. Caesars Atlantic City has a special overnight package going on from now until March in order to take advantage of “Dusk Tuesdays.” For just $85 you can, as they say, “descend upon the hippest club in the city like the VIP you know you are.”

How cool is this? You get a Tuesday night stay in a plush Caesars deluxe guest room, a $30 cocktail credit at the Toga Bar, complimentary admission for two at Dusk, and a late hotel checkout at 1pm, so you have a little more time to recover from all the fun you had the previous night.

When I saw this offer, I thought it was unique and definitely needed. When clubs have special nights to entice people to come out, there’s a fine line between having fun and truly partying. Since you should never drink and drive, to have the option of staying in a safe place for an $85 all-inclusive fee is a great idea, and a safe one at that. Go to caesarsac.com and click on the “dusk ac” icon on the bottom right

corner for more information, and to book your room today.

If you plan on sticking around a while, Friday nights in A.C. just got a lot better too since the new “open to the public” dining room at the Foundation Room is now offering the “Feed Your Soul” Friday night supper club. It’s a modern fashionable mix of culinary delights, excellent music and socializing. You will get to indulge in a four-course dinner, wine and two different music acts for just $50 per person. Reservations are required and seating is limited. Dinner settings are for 6pm, 7pm, 8pm and 9pm.

The experience includes a solo singer/ musician in the dining room with a live performance during each seating, and then a full band live in the Foundation Room lounge from 10pm-2am Fridays. The package is designed to offer the complete “nightout” experience and the cool thing is that the menu and wine selections will change monthly. This month’s menu includes (first course) house-made sausage, grilled veggies, flat bread, assorted pickles and spiced jams; (second course) Foundation Room salad or lobster pumpkin chowder; (third course) choice of tournedos of fillet, coffee rubbed rib eye, seafood bouillabaisse, pappardell, yogurt and buttermilk battered fried chicken. Desserts include a choice of artisan cheese plate, petite cheese cake, caramel bread pudding or “death by chocolate” cake. Plus you will have wine selections such as Terra D’Oro Moscato, Montevina Barera or Terra D’Oro Red Zinfandel. For more information call 343-4523.

I had a chance to speak with Foundation Room chef Thomas Ramsey and believe me when I tell you, he is top notch. His creativity and attention to detail is something to experience. OK now that my mouth is watering — I better start making my reservations. See you around! N

Flashy ‘Follies’

Atlantic City Hilton brings back a classic format with new musical revue ‘Boardwalk Follies’

By Lori Hoffman

F E B R U A R Y 2 4 , 2 0 1 1 / A C W E E K LY. C O M

OARDWALK FOLLIES, THE NEW musical revue at the Hilton, opens with a nod to the hot decade in Atlantic City these days, the 1920s, with a traditional Boardwalk rolling chair and a song that harkens all the way back to 1914, “By the Beautiful Sea.” However, after that introduction, it is all contemporary music — from the songbooks of Lady Gaga, Christine Aguilera, Katy Perry, Adam Lambert and more — a sextet of lovely lady dancers, a couple of aerialists, singer Jacklyn Maffucci and, bringing it all together as a low-key master of ceremonies, South Jersey bred magician Michael Turco.

This is a classic revue show, a genre that has been seen less and less in town lately and is now being revived not only

at the Hilton, but also at Resorts with its new revue Moonshine Follies.

In talking with one of the producers of Boardwalk Follies, he explains that he is delighted to be bringing back this style of entertainment and hopes it is successful so it brings more shows to town. “I hope the production show does return,” he says. “It is a dying breed here. I remember when most of the casinos in Atlantic City had revues.

I just came back from Las Vegas and it’s the exact opposite there. Every casino has three production shows. They have an afternoon show, an evening show and a late show. We were looking to present a contemporary version of the classic Atlantic City variety show. It was fashioned after a revue that ran for

a long time years ago at the Showboat, the Basin Street Follies, the idea being that the entertainers will be changed every 10 weeks so that the show can be viewed numerous times.”

The hope is that the current run of Boardwalk Follies is just the beginning of a possible extended run at the casino.

Michael Turco is heading up the first cast because he is “a talented kid.” And he’s local, from South Jersey. “First and foremost it was his talent,” adds the producer.

There is also high praise for singer Jacklyn Maffucci, who showed up at a New York audition and got the ultimate callback to be in the show. The six talented dancers were also culled from New York auditions, with the final six making the cut from a starting group of 200 people.

The show makes use of a large video screen that provides the proper background for the various musical numbers, like an office setting when the dancers are clad in work attire with briefcases until it is time to get rowdy for some after work fun. There was the sea, of course for the opening number, and a flashbulb-popping red carpet when sing-

er Maffucci unleashes her version of Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi.” Other songs in the show include “Makes Me Wanna Pray” (Christine Aguilera); “Firework” (Katy Perry); “When I Grow Up” (The Pussycat Dolls) and “For Your Entertainment” (Adam Lambert).

Giving the show a strong presence is Turco, who has been a regular headliner in town with his Magic Wonder show. He does a spectacular card trick with the same deft touch as his bigticket illusions, like disappearing from a box and reappearing in the audience.

He brings the audience into his world and shows us why he has so much fun doing what he does.

Toss in the excellent dancers — Caitlin Hopple, Carla Conte, Cristin Van Horn, Rachel Hall, Jillian Reed and dancer-show choreographer Monica Poulas — the two aerialists, Veronica Blair and Susan Voyticky, and vocalist Maffucci, and Boardwalk Follies is a lovely example of a recently bygone era when revue shows dominated the Boardwalk.

Audiences will ultimately decide if it is a trend they would like to see continue. n

The Oscar Goes to...

Predictions for the Academy Awards this Sunday, Feb. 27.

By Lori Hoffman

T

HIS YEAR’S OSCAR SHOWDOWN is old school — represented by the classic Oscar style of The King’s Speech — and the new school sensibilities of The Social Network. The Social Network earned a ton of critics’ awards, but has been losing steam of late as The King’s Speech racked up a surprising 12 nominations to Network’s eight, with the Coen’s brothers’ True Grit remake earning 10 nods. The director’s race should be interesting since it might be split, with the best picture not getting best director.

Here are my predictions and preferences for the major categories, plus my quick picks for the rest of the awards. The Academy Awards will be broadcast on Sunday, Feb. 27, 8pm, on ABC with James Franco and Anne Hathaway as co-hosts.

Best Supporting Actress o Amy Adams, The Fighter o Helena Bonham Carter, The King’s

Speech o Melissa Leo, The Fighter o Hailee Steinfeld, True Grit o Jackie Weaver, Animal Kingdom Prediction: Melissa Leo Preference: Melissa Leo — She was fabulous as a dominating mother, but there has been some backlash about ads she brought heralding her performance that rubbed Hollywood types the wrong way. Still I think she holds on, with an outside shot that 14-year-old Steinfeld or her Fighter costar Adams takes home the prize.

back on this stage in the coming years.

o o o o o o o

Best Actress o Annette Bening, The Kids Are All Right o Nicole Kidman, Rabbit Hole o Jennifer Lawrence, Winter’s Bone o Natalie Portman, Black Swan o Michelle Williams, Blue Valentine

Prediction: Natalie Portman Preference: Jennifer Lawrence — Portman has won all the preliminary awards, although there is an outside chance that Bening, who has never won, might earn the win in a late push. Lawrence was brilliant as an Ozark teen, but the nomination will have to do for now. Kidman was also worthy as a greving parent.

Best Director o Darren Aronofsky, Black Swan o David O. Russell, The Fighter o Tom Hooper, The King’s Speech o David Fincher, The Social Network o Joel Coen & Ethan Coen, True Grit

Inception The Kids Are All Right The King’s Speech The Social Network Toy Story 3 True Grit Winter’s Bone

Prediction: The King’s Speech Preference: The King’s Speech — Yes, this might seem like a too obvious, staid choice, but despite the royal circumstances, this is a movie about a terrific friendship first, and features marvelous performances. My second choice would be Christopher Nolan’s delightfully twisted Inception. The Social Network will win for Aaron Sorkin’s screenplay and Toy Story 3 will get the animation Oscar.

Everything Else

Prediction: David Fincher Preference: Tom Hooper — The feeling Best Supporting Actor is the Academy wants to give this award o Christian Bale, The Fighter and a screenplay nod to The Social Network o John Hawkes, Winter’s Bone while still rewarding the feel good King’s o Jeremy Renner, The Town Speech with the best picture nod. It has o Mark Ruffalo, The Kids Are All Right happened before, but if there is a Speech o Geoffrey Rush, The King’s Speech Prediction: Colin Firth, The King’s Speech sweep, Hooper will add gold next to his Preference: Colin Firth — Bridges beat Firth Director’s Guild trophy.

Prediction: Christian Bale Preference: Geoffrey Rush — Bale would last year, but not this time. Firth has earned be my 1A choice, but I loved how Rush’s all the big prizes for his terrific job as a king Best Motion Picture eccentric speech therapist took a king down with a wicked temper and an even worse o 127 Hours stammer. Bridges has his award and the o Black Swan a peg in order to help him lead a nation. other nominees are young and likely to be o The Fighter Best Actor

o Javier Bardem, Biutiful o Jeff Bridges, True Grit o Jesse Eisenberg, The Social Network o Colin Firth, The King’s Speech o James Franco, 127 Hours
