Like others rooted in reverence or religion, Memorial Day is a holiday that has become a bit detached from its intended purpose over the decades, and in the eyes of some has taken on an commercial element that could overshadow its true meaning. The federal holiday dates back to the Civil War, when “Decoration Day” was created on May 30, 1869, by a Union general to remember northern-forces soldiers killed in the war. Later a different day in May was established to recognize those from the Confederate or southern states who perished. It evolved to include all American Armed Forces members who died in any war the United States was ever involved in. Renamed “Memorial Day,” it is always recognized on the last Monday of the month of May. Two local organizations — the Disabled American Veterans Chapter 10 of Atlantic City, and the Military Order of the Purple Heart #115 of Cape-Atlantic Counties — and their affiliated chapters continue to hold a tribute to the holiday every May 30 (11am at O’Donnell Memorial Park, Albany and Pacific avenues in Atlantic City), regardless of what day of the week that may fall. It’s been that way since World War II ended (1945) says 86-year-old John Palmentieri, a lifelong Atlantic City resident and the youngest of four brothers to serve in WW II. The others are now deceased. “It was changed to the last Monday to give people a threeday weekend, but we stick to May 30th because that’s the day Memorial Day was created to remember those who died at war,” says Palmentieri, who was drafted out of high school at age 18 and was the second brother to fight in Europe. The first was Pompeii (named after the famed Italian city), who fought in Gen. Patton’s army in Sicily. His eldest brother, Gus, was in Pearl Harbor the day it was bombed by the Japanese on Dec. 7, 1941, and spent the next four years in the Pacific theater. The fourth brother, Ralph, was a gunnery instructor in Florida and was never shipped overseas. All four brothers survived WW II and returned to Atlantic City. “My mother’s hair was black when Gus got drafted,” says John Palmentieri, who served from 1943-’45. “It was gray by the time I went in.” John Palmentieri came the closest to dying in WW II when he was shot in the leg by a sniper in Germany, weeks after he and his 79th Infantry Division landed in Normandy and marched up to the border of Germany. For that he received one of the highest military honors bestowed on a soldier — the Purple Heart. His wife, Louise Palmentieri, was the first woman ever to serve on the City Council of Atlantic City, and spearheaded the drive to have a WW II monument placed at O’Donnell Park. Each year John Palmentieri and members of his veterans groups give talks to schoolchildren, like the one the gave Saturday, May 19, at Belhaven Middle School in Linwood, to remind them of the sacrifices that were made, and continue to be made, to preserve America’s freedom. — Ray Schweibert

Sure, Beyoncé’s been the talk of the town regarding Revel’s Memorial Day weekend grand-opening festivities, but they hardly begin and end with the mere superstar, who has been rehearsing at the resort over the past week or so for her special four-night stand in A.C. The mega-resort is set for round-theclock, property-wide partying from May 25-28. But since we’re on the subject, a “Beyoncé & Revel VIP Premiere Pass” is being offered that includes one mid-orchestra level ticket to Beyoncé’s Ovation Hall concert, access to VIP events at The Social and Ivan Kane’s Royal Jelly Burlesque nightclubs, access to the Resort Level including a cocktail reception, live entertainment and gratis cocktails from 5-6pm, free parking and a personalized commemorative credential. The package is $750 and available for any of Beyonce’s first three (of four) shows (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) by visiting any Ticketmaster location or going to ticketmaster.com. Additional highlights of Revel’s Premiere Weekend include “Hallucination” in the DigiPit, where each night (7pm-2am) a stage show combines music and digital art with live dancing every half hour; latenight gaiety at both The Social and Kane’s Royal Jelly with surprise performances from 11pm-4am; the Revel Food Walk with small-plate tastings prepared by Revel chefs at The Row ($20, Friday 6pm-1am, Saturday and Sunday 11:30am-1am); and signature fitness programs by Bask spa, including Core Fusion, yoga-mind-body and SurfSET classes held throughout the resort. A commemorative T-shirt of Premiere Weekend will also be presented to qualified Revel Card members. For a full list of scheduled events, visit revelresorts.com/premiere. — RS

Unprecedented Lineup of Shows By David J. Spatz

PENING NIGHT WAS STILL A day away when entertainer Steve Lawrence stood on the stage of Atlantic City’s first casino showroom dressed casually in chino slacks, a polo shirt and a navy blue Chris Craft boating windbreaker. Lawrence and his wife, singer Eydie Gorme, had accepted the challenge of being the first act to play the first legal casino to open outside the state of Nevada. During a break from rehearsals in the Superstar Theatre of what was then known as Resorts International Casino Hotel, Lawrence said few in Atlantic City realized the change that was about to come over the city, especially with entertainment. “We always loved playing Atlantic City and we’ve missed it,” Lawrence said of their decade-long gap in gigs, which occurred when Atlantic City fell on hard time during the 1960s and ’70s. “Wait’ll you see what’s going to happen to this town. This is just the beginning,” he said. “In a few years, there’ll be as many [entertainers] working here as there are in Las Vegas.” Too bad Lawrence won’t be in Atlantic City to see that his prediction has come true, and in spades. Through more than three decades of trial and error, Atlantic City’s casino industry has developed a loose formula for entertaining the 30 million people who visit each year. But on May 26, 1978, not even Lawrence could have predicted the unprecedented lineup of shows that awaits visitors over the upcoming Memorial Day holiday weekend. (See p. 28) Between Friday and Monday, Atlantic City will experience the single biggest weekend of entertainment the town has ever seen, and with the most demographically diverse collection of artists, too. Few cities anywhere can match the quality, quantity and calibre of shows this weekend, if ever. Quite literally, there’s something for every entertainment taste, ranging from Beyoncé’s four shows at Revel as part of the property’s grand opening celebration to reggae god Bob Marley’s legendary band The Wailers performing. And in between, there’s headliners performing rock, pop, country, comedy, R&B, techno music and more. Joe Lupo, senior vice president of operations at Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa, says entertainment is one of the keys in separating Atlantic City from other regions where casino-style gambling is merely a stand-along attraction, not part of an overall destination experience.

When it opened in 2003, Borgata helped revive a mostly stagnant Atlantic City entertainment scene by bringing in artists that often strayed beyond the traditional mold of casino entertainment. And that, in turn, helped bring in new visitors who had previously not considered Atlantic City a destination option. Since then, Borgata has widened its entertainment program and now offers a mix of classic and contemporary artists. “We’ve offered our customers a diverse lineup of A-list acts,” Lupo says. “While the classic artist speaks to a slightly older demographic, it is one with the disposable income that enjoys the non-gaming amenities we provide. Borgata will also provide entertainment that speaks to a younger consumer, while also offering the world-renowned deejays in our nightlife venues that attract a younger demo.” In the post-Borgata years, other properties have successfully experimented with ramping up their showroom offerings to appeal to a broader variety of guests. Between Borgata’s Event Center and the major acts that roll into Boardwalk Hall, Atlantic City is finally becoming a first-run stop for many touring shows. “While entertainment has always been a major focus at Borgata, it is evident that many other properties are now taking a similar approach with the need to differentiate Atlantic City from other gaming markets,” Lupo explains. “And this trend has become more apparent with more venues now in the city.” While important and certainly one of the key aspects to the revitalization of the market, Lupo says it’s more than just shows that will help Atlantic City maintain a clear competitive edge in the battle for the leisure and convention guest, which are the two groups considered the keys to reversing Atlantic City’s fortunes. “I believe entertainment is only one of the many aspects, along with the addition of more hotel rooms, more dining, improvements to the beach and Boardwalk, and the ability to market the city to the millions on the East Coast,” he says. n

T’S NOT ALWAYS EASY BEING NEW in Atlantic City. April revenues for the Revel Resort’s preview opening (ahead of this weekend’s official opening) prove that and on a lesser scale, so do the poker numbers coming out of the Golden Nugget. The Nugget has just finished an impressive $150 million makeover of its property, formally Trump Marina, and in a word, it’s amazing. The layout of the property is almost the same, but everywhere you look things are shiny and new. And one of the nicest additions is a new 20-table poker room off the casino floor. Trump Marina didn’t offer poker. The Nugget’s room is luxuriously appointed, intimate for an A.C. poker room and buoyed by the Nugget’s impressive line-up of food choices (hey, it’s important to some of us). But despite that, the Nugget has barely been able to register poker revenue in a city that already had seven other poker rooms and now an eighth with the Revel poker room open. But if you’re expecting panic from Nugget officials, or A.C. poker vet Keith Richman, Nugget poker room manager, think again. The Nugget brings a different philosophy to a poker landscape where bigger is usually thought of as better. According to Richman, poker at the Golden Nugget is a very personal experience. “We want to be a player’s room,” he says. “We want to be the kind of room that remembers you. We remember what seat you like. What you like to drink. Whether your spouse also plays. It’s about a very friendly and one-on-one experience.” Of course any poker-room manager talks about player relations and taking care of regulars, but sitting in the Nugget room with Richman (on very comfortable seats I might add) it makes perfect sense. Tucked in the city’s marina section alongside the huge and often packed Borgata poker room and the mid-sized Harrah’s Resort, how could the Nugget be anything other than a mellower, more intimate experience for a player? And building a player base of that type is going to take some time. “Poker in Atlantic City is a very tough nut to crack,” says Richman. “It’s a very competitive atmosphere, especially when you consider the new rooms that have also opened in Pennsylvania. But I think we can

offer something a little different than our competitors offer.” In fact, the philosophy fits in with what appears to be the Golden Nugget’s philosophy in general. And that’s the idea of a boutique-casino experience. “And I think that’s the wave of the future,” says Richman. “The player base is only so large. Pretty soon everyone is going to live 45 minutes from a casino — especially on the East Coast. But we think of this as a boutique room. There are so many things here that can attract people. There are so many wonderful restaurants and clubs and so many things to bring people here. And then maybe they come to eat at the Chart House and then maybe play some blackjack. And hopefully, please, maybe some poker.” Though the Nugget’s room has been open since December, a new tournament schedule introduced last month has started to increase play in the room. The Nugget introduced guaranteed weekend tournaments; $10,000 guaranteed $100 + $20 tournaments on Saturdays and $2,012 ($40 + $10) guaranteed tournaments on Sundays. Tournaments are at noon both days. Weekdays, the Nugget offers $68 + $12, $2,012 guaranteed tournaments at 10am. “So far I’ve been very happy with the results,” says Richman. “We’re drawing 35-40 players a morning and I think that’s very encouraging for a 20-table room. And our weekend tournaments with $10,000 guarantees have been drawing more than 100. “What’s harder is building up some cash play,” he says. “That takes some time to build up consistent play. But we’re approved for all games and we’ll give players whatever they want to play.” The company has also introduced a progressive jackpot that pays off for various high hands, rather than a straight bad-beat jackpot. In fact, the Nugget is pulling out all kinds of promotions. For example, the winner of the Saturday poker tournament gets a one-ounce gold piece as a bonus. That’s about a $1,700 bonus. “The thing is that we are in this for the long haul,” says Richman. “The Golden Nugget has made a tremendous commitment to poker. There’s a commitment to service here.” And it could turn out to be the perfect complement to the resort’s poker scene. n

Unlocking the Ocean

Ocean City and region prepares for big Memorial Day weekend By Josh Kinney

T’S MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND in Ocean City and that can only mean one thing: The ocean that has been chilled all winter long is about to be warmed up and set free, unlocked for a new summer season.

Marching straight into the sea, holding briefcases and decked out in their most professional business attire, the “Unlocking of the Ocean & Business Persons Plunge” is set for Friday, May 25. Welcoming in the unofficial start of the new “summer” season to the strains of “Pomp and Circumstance,” the beach at Moorlyn Terrace always makes for an unusual spectacle that you might not want to miss. Participants will be dressed in formal business attire — from waiters and waitresses to real estate agents, hotel owners and store clerks. The attendees will push forward against the Atlantic waves and tout American and “Open-for-Business” flags. Last year, Ocean City Mayor Jay Gillian, Councilman Keith Hartzell, Ocean City

The events begin on Friday night, May 25, with an illuminated “night kite fly.” Saturday and Sunday, May 26 and 27, the East Coast Stunt Kite Championships take place on the beach as well as workshops and kite exhibits. Kite flying clubs will set up tents while food trucks parked along the sand next to the Wildwood Boardwalk offer food and beverages. The skies above the beach just south of the Wildwood Convention Center and the “Wildwoods” Hollywood sign will be swarming with kites of various shapes,

plus more. Located in the Lecture Room, 110. This series, presented by the Somers Point Jazz Society, will document and explore why these musicians are so important to the overall history and development of Jazz. There will be lecture, discussion, music, and film. Free. 2-3:30pm.

SUNDAY, JUNE 3 Mitchell McAllister OC Walk 6th St. practice field. The Walk is in memory of teen Mitchell McAllister and raises funds to support the Emmanuel Cancer Foundations Direct Service Programs. Proceeds

The 27th annual Wildwood Int’l Kite Fest returns sizes and colors — from giant whales, wind socks, space aliens, parafoils, box and singleline delta kites, and fleets of massive fish that spin, turn and flip with guided precision from their flight directors standing on Wildwood’s massive elongated shore. Many of the kites are hand made by the pros and some are capable of reaching heights of 500 feet, the equivalent of a 50-story building. Each year the popularity of the festival has continued to grow — between kite enthusiasts as well as general spectators who have come to watch the weekend event. Though for many participants, this annu-

Bueno Brunch!

RUNCH, IN OUR OPINION, IS easily the most sophisticated meal of the day. Think about it, this late morning/early afternoon hybrid offers all the benefits of a hearty fast-break, coupled with the variety and diversity of midday or evening repasts. As a result, we were seriously excited to hear that one of our favorite A.C. restaurants, Cuba Libre, was adding a seasonally inspired brunch service to their existing offerings. Do keep in mind, this isn’t some tired, old reworking of standard stuff. Much of the menu has been personally fashioned by James Beard award-winning chef/partner Guillermo Pernot. Pernot, who again visited the once-forbidden island nation this past April — leading a small group on a cultural tour — apparently returned full of ideas. And while other outposts of Cuba Libre, notably Philadelphia and Washington, D.C., have been serving brunch for some time, Atlantic City’s service incorporates both existing items as well as promising additions. We began with their stellar, Caribbeanstyle guacamole Cubano. A tight dome, packed with cubed avocado and golden pineapple, accompanied by long, thin plantain crisps. Formed by expertly cut cubes — a brunoise, in French chef terms — of green and yellow, this bright, light version offers both the inherent creaminess of avocado and the incandescent sweetness of pineapple. Next up, another item from their piqueos (small tasting plates) albondigas

Empanada de Huevo camaguey, four perfect little mini-meatballs doused with a shiny, Asian-inspired glaze. Pleasantly salty, with just a whisper of heat, the beef/pork/pine nut combos were perched atop a scintillating warm salad of hot and sour mushrooms sourced from the epicenter of that industry, Kennett Square, Pennsylvania. Having started with savory, we now wanted to explore the sweet. Soufflé de panqueque, an oven-baked pancake soufflé, served in a cool, individual size cast iron pan, fit that bill. Topped with a fresh berry salad, whipped cream and sided by molasses infused with five-year-old Cuba Libre aged rum, this was no ordinary pancake. Its texture was thick and custardy with a yel-

low color. The result was a highly refined dish, more along the lines of what we would expect from a fine French bistro. Empanadas brought a pair of steamy halfmoon shaped pies, filled with melted leeks, bacon and a whole, poached egg. These were paired with a crisp, slightly bitter salad of wonderful watercress, liberally tossed with another chef’s specialty, a spicy Bloody Mary vinaigrette. The soft, yolky ovum created a spontaneous sauce once a fork tore open the pastry, always a keen little culinary tactic. Another dish featuring eggs, churrasco benedict, arrived as two thick squares of chimichurri-marinated skirt steak over a buttery brioche and topped by two over

easies and tomato-hollandaise (otherwise known as “choron”) sauce. The meat itself was sweet, without any hint of the stringiness, which can often plague this cut. And we adored the amber-hued sauce, a bit of smoky coupled with the natural acidity of tomato. Our final sample from the regular menu, Cobbano salad, was a Latino take on the traditional Cobb. It was highlighted by smoky roasted pulled pork in a sweet plantain salpicon. A bed of fresh greens, including more of that leafy cress, tossed with hearts of palm, organic grape tomato halves, bacon, plenty of Cabrales bleu cheese — Spain’s answer to Roquefort — plus chopped hardboiled egg and scallions with a light mustard vinaigrette made for a hearty plating. From the dessert menu, we split a torta de chocolatey dulce de leche. This fallen chocolate soufflé was layered with caramel and finished with a spoon of dolce de leche ice cream, chocolate orange sauce and a tart, complimentary blueberry compote. Beverages are another crucial element of the Cuba Libre experience, and we’d suggest the coffee con xocolati for brunchers. Cuban coffee fused with traditional Mexican chocolate and whipped cream topping, luscious, bittersweet and potent. Finally, Cuba Libre also serves a proprietary line of “agua frescas” exotic tropical fruit juice drinks. From a list of five, we were particularly taken with mamey, pale white with a delicate melon essence and guarapincoco, guarapo, pineapple, lime and coconut milk. All deliver energizing, healthful refreshment for the long summer days that lay ahead. n

Garbage Back for Now

Shirley Manson and company returns with big new album, first-ever tour stop in Atlantic City.

Where: House of Blues at Showboat, A.C. When: Friday, May 25, 8pm How Much: $29.50 and $39.50

Garbage

PHOTO: AUTUMN DE WILDE

EARLY A DECADE HAS PASSED since Duke Erikson and his band Garbage toured. So forgive the guitarist-bassist-producer for having some trouble getting used to the rigors of the road. “It feels kind of weird right now,” Erikson says while calling from Manhattan. “We just flew in from Paris and I’ve forgotten how draining travel can be. The simple act of packing can take something out of you. I’m tired. I don’t know how much people realize that this is such a grind. It’s a rewarding grind but it’s a grind.” The wear and tear of touring is one of the reasons Garbage took a seven-year hiatus from the road and the studio. While supporting its 2005 album, Bleed Like Me, which peaked at a career high number four on the Billboard album chart, the band embarked on a tour that it abbreviated before taking a break. “We were totally exhausted,” Erikson says. “We were on the road for 10 years and that takes its toll. There were other issues as well. We had some business problems in that we felt that our record Like us:

facebook.com/ACWeekly

company didn’t give us enough attention. We needed to part ways from the company and go our own way. All I can say is that it’s amazing how quickly time goes by. I can account for all that I’ve done and so can [my bandmates] but the calendar just keeps on turning.” Garbage left Geffen Records. Each of the members of the band worked on solo projects or produced albums for other recording artists. “We took the time we needed and it helped us get back,” Erikson says. “It was just a hiatus, not a breakup.” Garbage, which crafts quirky, atmospheric pop-rock, is back with Not Your Kind of People, which dropped a week ago courtesy of the band’s own label, Stunvolume Records. Much like the band’s earlier work, the album is comprised of deep, dark and catchy cuts. Will the new songs chart like old hits “Stupid Girl,” and “I’m Only Happy When It Rains?” “It’ll be interesting to see what happens,” Erikson says. “I think we have a lot of hooks in these songs. I think it’s possible we could have some [chart] success. The feedback we’ve gotten is very

‘There is no one like Shirley Manson. We go up there and play and she just captivates the crowd. She performs in the tradition of the great female rock performers. She’s one of a kind, but I also think we’re one of a kind.’ good. We’ve gotten some airplay already. It’s a great start for this album. We’ll see how far we go with it but I’m pretty optimistic.” Erikson believes anything is possible for Garbage since it features vocalist Shirley Manson. The Scottish singer is a throwback. She’s a charismatic, eccentric singer, who engages the audience while Erikson and geeky bandmates, guitarist Steve Marker and drummer/uber-produc-

er Butch Vig, who was behind the board for Nirvana’s Nevermind and a slew of alt-rock classics, can just focus on sonic side since Manson is one of the most entertaining characters in rock on and off stage. The sexy Manson is funny, provocative and intelligent, a rare package in contemporary rock. “There is no one like Shirley Manson,” Erikson says. “We go up there and play and she just captivates the crowd. She performs in the tradition of the great female rock performers. She’s one of a kind, but I also think we’re one of a kind. There is no other group that is like Garbage. Part of the reason I think we’ll be fine now is because no one sounds like us. One of the great things you can do in a band is come up with your own sound and we’ve accomplished that. I’m very proud of every stage this band has gone through.” Expect the hits and a few new tunes when Garbage takes the stage Friday, May 25, at the House of Blues in Atlantic City. “We’ll do about three or four songs from the new album and everything a fan would want to hear. We also will play some obscure songs. The diehard fans like that and so do we. It’s a nice changeup.” The band is getting along well, but the future for Garbage is uncertain. “I don’t know what we’ll do next,” Erikson says. “We don’t know if we have another album in us. Maybe we do. We’ll find out after this tour ends. But I’m living in the moment. I’m not worried about what I’ll do after we finish up [the tour].” The band is making its Atlantic City debut. “You think we would have played there after all the touring we’ve done,” Erikson says. “But I guess if you play around long enough you play everywhere. It’ll be fun, particularly that weekend. It’s different there than your average town. It’ll be a good time, but it’s been a really good time no matter where we’ve played. We really have enjoyed being back together. It was so good that we took that break. We needed it. Our batteries are re-charged. We’re having as much fun as we’ve ever had and that’s pretty good since we’ve had some great times together.” n

ASK THE GEATOR

EWF Embodied an Evolution

By Jerry Blavat

NCE AGAIN, GREETINGS AND salutations. Well, here it is at last — the opening of our 40th season at Memories in Margate. Hard to believe it was that long ago that we began, but we’re all still going strong and we’ll celebrate by partying all weekend long. We’ll go nonstop Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and you can hear the action live on KOOL 98.3 starting Friday night at 8pm. Then, on Sunday night, the fabulous Trammps will give a live performance at Memories to kick in Memorial Day. Doors open up at 9pm — no need for special tickets, and no extra cover charge. See you this weekend — and as we celebrate, let’s do it with the spirit of having our troops home from abroad with haste. Now, let’s ask the Geator.

Jimmy Ruffin left the Army. Jimmy had already been recording for Motown and one of its subsidiaries, Miracle, and was pursuing a solo career. When he was asked to join the Temptations, he suggested his younger brother David as the group’s new lead singer. David joined the group in January of 1964. Their debut album, Meet the Temptations, had David on the cover instead of Al, but all the songs on the album except “The Way You Do the Things You Do” were recorded when Al was still with the group.

I think the song you’re humming might be “Jam Up” by Tommy Ridgeley. That was the theme that opened up my TV show and I occasionally play it on Why did Earth, Wind and Fire wear my weekday radio show.

FTER DISCUSSING 10 MOVIES I was looking forward to seeing in May and June in the May 2 issue (see online at acweekly.com), it is time to look at the summer movie schedule in July and August. The Avengers got us off to terrific superhero start. Only four films from my list are in July since most movie executives didn’t want their releases anywhere near Batman and Spider-man.

JULY The Amazing Spider-Man (July 6) A reboot really revived the Batman series, so now director Marc Webb (500 Days of Summer), with a screenplay by Alvin Sargeant, Steve Kloves and James Vanderbilt, will try to do the same with Spidy. Andrew Garfield takes over for Tobey Maguire and Emma Stone will play the new love interest, Gwen Stacy. Rhys Ifans is The Lizard and the interesting supporting cast includes Martin Sheen, Sally Field, Denis Leary and Campbell Scott. Savages (July 6) Oliver Stone directs Taylor Kitsch (John Carter, Battleship) and Aaron Johnson (Kick-Ass) in this drama about weed dealers whose product attracts the unwanted attention of a drug cartel run by Selma Hayek. With Blake Lively, John Travolta, Uma Thurman and Benicio Del Toro. The Dark Knight Rises (July 20) Christopher Nolan, the man who brought an edgy, independent film cred to the superhero genre, presents the final film in his Batman trilogy. Joining trio regulars Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Gary Oldman and Morgan Freeman are Anne Hathaway as Catwoman, Tom Hardy as the bad guy Bane plus Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Marion Cotillard. Killer Joe (July 27) Matthew McConaughey is having an interesting movie summer. First he plays a male exotic dancer in Magic Mike, then he plays the title role in William Friedkin’s killer dark comedy. Killer Joe is about a paid assassin who is hired by a desperate man (Emile Hirsch) to kill his mother (Gina Gershon) so he can collect on her insurance policy.

Savages lope towards major stardom after appearing in The Avengers, is the new super spy with Bourne screenwriter Tony Gilroy also directing. Total Recall (Aug. 4) Colin Farrell takes over for The Arnold in this remake of the Paul Vehoven sci-fi classic based on a short story by Philip K. Dick. He is joined by Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Biel, directed by Len Wiseman (Live Free or Die Hard). Hope Springs (Aug. 10) This movie gets on my list thanks to the casting. Meryl Streep teams up with Tommy Lee Jones as a troubled married couple that signs up for a week of tough love marriage counseling from Steve Carell. The Expendables 2 (Aug. 10) I confess; this is a totally guilty pleasure, and yes, I did enjoy seeing the old geezer action stars in the original. This time we see a bit more of Schwarzenegger and Willis, plus a villain played by Jean-Claude Van Damme. They will join the cast headed by Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren and franchise newcomers Yu Nan and Liam Hemsworth as Billy the Kid. Sparkle (Aug. 17) Whitney Houston’s final movie is a remake of the 1976 musical drama Sparkle, which she had been trying to get made for a decade. She died just three months after the production wrapped. Houston plays the mother of the rising star played by American Idol winner Jordin Sparks.

HEADLINERS

Premium Rush (Aug. 24) I’m a true believer when it comes to the talent of Joseph Gordon-Levitt. In this action drama he plays a NYC bike messenger who picks up an envelope at Columbia University and is soon biking away from a dirty cop (played by Michael Shannon) who wants that envelope. Written and directed by David Koepp. n
