Big Shot Volleyball Hits Bally’s Beach
For the 21st year, the Big Shot Volleyball Championships, presented by 4C Totally Light 2Go, will be coming to the beaches of Atlantic City. This year’s tournament — which matches some of the nation’s top male and female doubles teams — is scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 6-7, on the beach in front of Bally’s. There will be $8,000 in cash prizes courtesy of Bally’s, East End Volleyball and Great American Volleyball. Tournament preliminaries start 9am Saturday followed by the playoff rounds at 11am Sunday. Admission is free for all spectators. A number of nationally known volleyball players are expected to be spiking, setting and diving all over A.C.’s beaches come tournament time. The top-two male teams on the East Coast — Mike DiPierro/Adam Roberts and Steve Grotowski/Adrian Carambula — are registered for the event, while top females competitors include Tara Kuk/Olaya Pazo and Kristen Batt/Brooke Sweat. On Saturday, Sammy’s Beach Bar at Bally’s will be holding a special meet-and-greet with the players from 7-9pm, which will allow fans to interact with the athletes. For more information about the tournament, visit eevb.net or contact East End Volleyball at 631-728-0397. — Nate Mulberg

RNS ‘In The Pink!’ 50th Anniversary Celebration
For five decades, the Ruth Newman Shapiro (RNS) Cancer & Heart Fund has helped save the lives of countless individuals throughout southern New Jersey, and is one of the area’s longest running and most successful non-profit, volunteer-driven fundraising organizations. RNS has generated over $12 million for new facilities, programs, services and equipment for several area hospitals since its creation in 1961 by Rose Newman in honor of her mother, who lost her battle with cancer. As tribute to its past and continued success, a ceremony honoring five of the original 13 volunteers who helped get the organization started will take place at the Linwood Country Club (500 Shore Rd. in Linwood) on Thursday, Aug. 11, at 11:30am. The “In The Pink!” 50th anniversary luncheon will honor Annette “Lucky” Rockower, Esther Gushner, Doritt Linsk, Carolyn Major and Bea Klein Newborn. The guest speaker will be Linda Bradbury (pictured), senior vice president of Lilly Pulitzer, a leading retailer of resort chic apparel. Tickets are $60 per person and include a tour of the RNS Show House — a 7,000-square-foot Palladian-style landmark residence in Ventnor that dates back to 1908. Proceeds from the event benefit the RNS Regional Cancer Center and Heart Institute at AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center, and other area pulmonary and oncology facilities. Call 487-1190 or visit rnscancerandheartfund.org for more information. — Ray Schweibert
Dominick Farinacci
‘Dawn of Goodbye’
Don’t press that eject button after the ninth and seemingly last track on trumpeter Dominick Farinacci’s latest album, the terrific Dawn of Goodbye. That way you won’t miss the acclaimed Cleveland-native’s version of the classic Nat Adderly tune “Work Song,” which is a bonus track and serves as a bluesy bookend to this traditional jazz album. Combined with the rest of the album’s covers — and a couple originals — the song illustrates Farinacci’s deep knowledge, skill and natural understanding of the jazz medium. Having played with greats such as Wynton Marsalis, Kenny Barron and Joe Lovano, Farinacci, who performs for free on the Atlantic City Boardwalk at Kennedy Plaza Aug. 4 (7pm), is well on his way to his own greatness. Actually, he may already be there. — Jeff Schwachter

after frolicking on the sands and in the surf (the establishment also offered sunbathers a two-part, woolen swimsuit that covered most of the body). he installed his wife, martina, at the site, first in a small-frame house and, soon enough, in an expansive secondfloor residence above the beachfront business. richards Pavilion, with its sloping rooflines and open-air roman arches, provided shade and atmosphere directly across the Boardwalk. havana-born martina, of french and German parentage, was both cosmopolitan (her father produced silk hats in atlantic city via france) and business-savvy, and built richards Baths into the island’s largest while her husband continued his construction work in Philadelphia. Later, she would help guide the fortunes of her son’s political career. her strong hand remained on the tiller as she lived with him in the Boardwalk residence until she died in 1938. five years later, emerson richards married. By then he had fashioned an enviable career in public service and private practice. armed with
a degree from the University of Pennsylvania, he had joined the New Jersey bar and set up shop in atlantic city. But his eye was on the statehouse more than the courtroom. In 1912, richards began a three-year stint in the
he served as New Jersey’s acting governor for three months. his resume also included appointments as deputy state attorney general and counsel for a pair of interstate bridge commissions. Now that’s a busy agenda. richards maintained offices at the stately Schwehm Building, an eight-story rectangular structure at New York and atlantic avenues. “The building had a cachet; it was an elite place,” says local historian allen “Boo” Pergament, who often hunkers down at richards’ commodious desk, which lives on at the atlantic heritage center in Somers Point. But if richards’ eye was on governance, his ear was finely attuned to the sonorous strains of the organ. he studied the instrument’s technical aspects under world-renowned organ builders, and designed some 150 organs, including the granddaddy of them all in the original convention hall. at various times, seven pipe organs graced his residence. “his family wealth meant that he could indulge his passion without limitation,” says photo courtesy of allen ‘boo’ pergament

The Quaker-bred, multitalented richards eventually designed the jaw-dropping pipe organ in Boardwalk hall — the world’s largest — but his day job was politics. With his neatly trimmed, prematurely white hair and direct gaze, he looked the part. In addition to holding other high-profile offices, he served as New Jersey state senator for all but three of the years from 1917 to 1935. Long before Trenton’s clarion call and the organ’s sonic blast, richards received his baptism in atlantic city bathhouses. Born here in 1884, he was three years younger than his father’s thriving seashore business: richards Baths. Jacob richards, a Philadelphia contractor, had smelled profits in the salt air and, at South carolina avenue and the Boardwalk, built bathhouses for beachgoers to exchange wardrobes before and

Stephen d. Smith, president of the atlantic city convention hall organ Society (acchoS). “richards himself was never an organ builder, but he knew a fantastic amount about the subject. he used that knowledge, coupled with his legal background, to specify very particular details in the contracts for organs to be built under his direction.” for convention hall’s main auditorium organ, director richards deserved an academy award. The glorious instrument, which continues to undergo restoration, employs a staggering 33,000-plus pipes to create a gallery of sounds that fill the cavernous space. richards also designed the hall’s ballroom organ and one that resided at the original atlantic city high School. Pergament recalls sitting in the auditorium balcony before school and listening to a talented fellow student let loose on the 8,000-pipe organ. emerson richards died in the fall of 1963 at his Boardwalk residence, rebuilt at South carolina avenue following a 1958 fire. The summer after his death, the democrats nominated Lyndon Johnson for president at convention hall. The organ looked on. n Thanks to Allen “Boo” Pergament and Stephen D.

strutting their stuff in sexy costumes, they sing and dance, playfully tease the men without intimidating the women and encourage their audience to hit the dance floor and never once cross the invisible barrier. now in its third year at trump taj Mahal, Almost Angels is, for lack of a better or more accurate description, an interactive lounge revue that melds singing and dancing with contemporary music in a high-energy, 50-minute show that changes mood and intensity with each of three nightly performances thursday through sunday. “it’s definitely a hybrid kind of show,” says Steve Gietka, vice president of entertainment for trump entertainment resorts. “it’s a cross between a nightclub show and a lounge act, but it’s unlike any lounge show people have seen. it’s very unique.” initially modeled after the Pussycat Dolls, the burlesque-style girl group from the mid1990s, Almost Angels was created to fill a void in casino lounge entertainment. the trump taj Mahal had pumped millions of dollars into creating the ego lounge on the casino floor, and traditional lounge acts didn’t seem to fit the personality of the room and the demographics it attracted, gietka explains. “We put a lot of money into ego, started out with traditional lounge entertainment and came to realize there just weren’t enough people who were willing to sit there and watch that any more,” he says. “We needed something different.” Because the pussycat Dolls concept had done so well, gietka assembled a creative team to develop a similar but new approach to lounge entertainment. “We wanted to give [our guests] something beautiful and sexy to look at, but we wanted it to be more of a band situation, something with more of an edge to it,” he says. Almost Angels, for which there’s no admission or cover charge, was initially a work in progress as the casino and the show’s producers tried to find the right mix of music and choreography that would please an audience that often ranges in age from mid- to late 20s to seniors. after some trial and error and observing the music that struck the right chords with customers, Almost Angels settled on a soundtrack with decidedly modern appeal. although the music and choreography changes several times a year, artists whose tunes are featured in the show range from Lady Gaga and Rihanna to Usher, Janet Jackson and Katy Perry. “We’re always checking out itunes and Like us:

Billboard to see what’s in the top 40 and how we might work that into the show,” says Gina Cannuscio, the singer and choreographer who’s responsible for creating the dance moves for the cast. Musically, the shows run the gamut from rhythm and blues to old-school hip-hop to good old-fashioned rock ‘n roll, she explains. “We put in a few oldies but goodies, things that people like singing and dancing to,” she adds. the cast of six women, whose singing and dancing skills are first rate, is musically supported by two live musicians — a guitarist and a percussionist — who play to prerecorded tracks. having live musicians playing to tracks makes the show more cost-effective for the casino, an important consideration during a time when casino revenues are declining and budgets are stretched thin. it also gives the show a more pleasing look aesthetically, gietka adds. “We have a limited amount of space on the stage,” he says. “We don’t have a drummer taking up a lot of real estate, and we don’t have to put up an ugly plexiglas wall [to dampen the drum sounds].” gietka and Cannuscio agree the cast of Almost Angeles has to strike a delicate balancing act when the women come off the stage to interact with the audience. While it’s fun for the women to playfully tease men in the crowd, it’s equally important that they don’t make women in the room feel threatened by their beauty and sensuality. “We never have a hard time with the women,” Cannuscio says. “in fact, they’re usually easier to get them up on the dance floor than the men. Women love to dance, so it’s usually harder to get the guys motivated.” Cannuscio, a graduate of egg harbor township high school who aspires to produce shows and have her own dance academy, is one of two local women in Almost Angeles. the rest are cast out of new York, where there’s never a problem finding talented, beautiful and qualified candidates. “When we audition, we do it over three days and have hundreds of people show up,” Cannuscio says. “the reputation for our show has spread, so we can pick from the best of the best.” n

Poker Lowdown News on tournaments and other action in area casino poker rooms by Mike Pritchard
B
ack in March, when new Jersey Gov. chris christie vetoed legislation to allow intra-state online gaming in the state, it seemed to pretty much doom atlantic city casinos to be shut out of the online gaming pie. The legislation would have allowed online gaming in new Jersey, but restricted it to new Jersey residents gambling in the state. The online sites would have been run through atlantic city casinos. The bill seemed like a long shot anyway, considering that federal law bans internet gaming, an issue that still needs to be resolved. as many as a dozen other states have been trying to figure out if they can offer intra-state gaming. But in new Jersey, christie’s veto brought everything to a dead halt. Then, in april, the federal government took steps to shut down all internet gaming — which, of course, is dominated by online poker — in the U.S. The three biggest online poker sites, absolute Poker, Poker Stars and Full Tilt Poker were shut down in the country. The move made it pretty clear that the online gambling question has to be settled on a federal level. But now, new Jersey’s bid for online gambling seems to be resurfacing. new Jersey State Senator raymond Lesniak (D-Union) is gearing up at another run to bring intra-state internet gambling to the state. Lesniak told the Camden Courier Post he intends to reintroduce legislation to allow internet gaming in november. The new bill, Lesniak says, will address christie’s objections to the first bill. christie felt that the original bill, as written, would have allowed internet cafes and internet gaming locations to open all over the state. he also felt that the bill violates the state constitution, which limits casino gambling to atlantic city. christie also opposed a portion of the bill that would have given some of the revenues to the horse racing industry. Lesniak says his new bill will address the internet cafes and horse racing issues by basically banning the cafes and not funding horse racing. what’s a little less clear is how Lesniak would handle the constitutional question. in March, christie said he would support a statewide referendum on the issue, but no move was made to put a referendum on the november ballot. That could prove to be a major mistake as it would take another full year to get a referendum in front of voters. But just as sticky is the question of whether Like us:

this whole intra-state approach is legal. with so many states seeking to implement it, U.S. senators harry reid and John kyl recently sent a letter to the U.S. attorney General asking the Department of Justice to assert that intra-state gaming is illegal under federal law. Lesniak then sent his own letter to the attorney general asserting — as he consistently has — that the federal ban on internet gaming would not apply to the intra-state approach as states have the right to regulate gaming within their borders. You have to admire Lesniak for sticking to his guns. his plan could mean millions in revenue for atlantic city at a time when the resort could surely use it. But at the moment, the chances for approval for any legislation on online gaming looks bleak. The issue simply isn’t on the front burner in congress and any intra-state approach is likely to be challenged by the Department of Justice. (Of course, if you’re missing your online poker, we could point out that live poker games are offered daily in seven atlantic city casinos.) in some other news, atlantic city saw two bad-beat hits last week. The Taj Mahal clearly had a hit, probably for about $140,000, but no information has been released. The casino also had a better than $400k hit July 13, and it’s pretty much wiped out the bad-beat reserve and the jackpot was at $42,000 as of aug. 1. The Borgata also had another hit on its small bad-beat jackpot July 27. Player Long Pham, of egg harbor Township, saw quad threes fall to a straight flush held by andrew Benvenuto, of Mays Landing. The Borgata gave this rundown of the hand: The board showed 3D – 5c – aD – 3c – 2c. Pham’s pocket 3’s lost out, but he did take home $20,000 of the Bad Beat Jackpot. Benvenuto’s 4c – 6c completed the straight flush, taking home the pot and an additional $10,000. eight other players won $2,500. Finally, the Borgata has scheduled a $260 + $40, Deepstack Semi-Turbo (15 minute levels rounds 1-12) for Sunday, aug. 21, at 11am. Dubbed the “Put a Bad Beat on hunger” tournament, the casino, with cabot creamery cooperative, wants to raise awareness of local food programs, especially in the current economy. The event will benefit the South Jersey community Food Bank.

Get Guac’d before your night out!
Marketplace at Bally’s and found some delicious foods, including brownies by Brownies squared in Mays landing, lobster bisque soup from Fin at tropicana, Caribbean rum pralines by pecan Jacks, and a really great fire-and-ice martini by 2Chicks with chocolate. honestly almost everything I tried was wonderfully delicious. speaking of attending events where you stop at every booth for samples, I started thinking about proper etiquette while waiting in line. It’s frustrating when the people in the front stand there and just nosh on the samples without moving. It’s good to grab your sample and eat while you walk. this way you don’t hold up other people, right? whew, now that I got that off my chest ... I started thinking about other etiquette faux pas while dining out, such as talking on a cell phone really loud, or chewing with your mouth open or, as pointed out by my friend Brad Mossman of Ocean City, being taken out to dinner and having the person you’re with leave a lousy tip — that’s just plain embarrassing. I posed the question of what restaurant etiquette faux pas annoy you most, and the No. 1 answer I received — which I thought was interesting — didn’t have to do with food per se, but had to do with
respecting your waitstaff. Many people commented on how it’s very disrespectful to treat your waitstaff badly and to act like spoiled brats when things don’t go your way. It’s so true — people sometimes feel like they are better than their servers or, as Burtchaell points out, “please” and thank you” seem to have disappeared from many people’s vocabularies. servers are not some lower form of life; they are our equals, and oftentimes our peers. they deserve our respect and appreciation, she advises. Ocean City’s Natalie Kraft and Galloway’s Brandy Smith both agreed. as a former server herself, smith added that it’s ridiculous when people complain that their meal was unsatisfactory, and even request a discount or the entire meal for free, after they’ve cleaned the plate. egg harbor township’s Susanne Sacchetti concurred, adding that people shouldn’t forget common courtesy, respect, and graciousness. “treat your waiter/waitress as you would want to be treated if you were in their shoes,” she says. Blanche Morro, also known as “the singing Bartender” at resorts Casino hotel, has been in the business for many years. her pet peeves include loud cell phone rings leading to loud conversations, people who talk with their mouths full, people who bring their babies and allow them to scream while other people are eating, and, where the waitstaff applies, “service with a lack of knowledge for what they are serving.” the list goes on, but as you can see, your actions affect others when you’re out in public. try to take into consideration the people around you and be conscious of your mannerisms. If you do that, then it truly will be a great time had by all. n

John Eddie, Ocean Ryders Rock Trump Plaza Beach Bar Saturday, Aug. 6 For all his salient songwriting ability and flair for firing up crowds during live gigs, John Eddie may be best known as an incredibly talented singer/songwriter/ guitarist who, for whatever reason, never quite cracked the big time. Born in Virginia and raised in southern New Jersey, Eddie first materialized on the Philly music scene in the early 1980s with his band at that time, the Front street Runners. He migrated up to northern New Jersey where he was a popular figure at the famed stone Pony in asbury Park (sharing the stage with Bruce springsteen on more than one occasion), eventually branching out to play casino and club venues all over the country. Early in his career he had a radio hit called “Jungle Boy,” and made a well-received albeit self-effacing album called Who the Hell is John Eddie? in 2003 that showed a more folksy side than the hard rocker image of his early career. this saturday, aug. 6, Eddie and his band will perform at the trump Plaza Beach Bar from 3-6pm. Opening the show (Noon-2:15pm) will be the Ocean Ryders, who have been performing throughout the southern New Jersey music scene for about a decade. the Ocean Ryders feature Mike Hoebler on drums; Jeff schwachter (Atlantic City Weekly’s editor) on guitar, vocals and harmonica; tamara deMent on violin, and Mike DeVaul on keyboard, vocals and mandolin. a blues-heavy folk-rock band, the Ocean Ryders have a vast cache of original tunes and also perform covers of tunes by Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, Muddy Waters, gillian Welch, tom Waits and others. — Ray Schweibert

This weekend, Aug. 5-7, more than 100 bands from far and wide will descend on both venues for the Elephant Talk! Indie Music Festival. Among the acts playing on three stages will be the Deafening Colors (pictured) and Margate’s punk accordion king Malcolm Tent.

The post-grunge band Bush is back and coming to perform at the House of Blues at Showboat on Aug. 4. By Cori Rosen

efore launching a successful solo career, marrying No Doubt rocker Gwen Stefani, and having his face planted on every conceivable tabloid magazine, Gavin Rossdale was the frontman of a band called Bush. Rossdale and Nigel Pulsford (who would become Bush’s lead guitarist) first met at a London nightclub in 1992. The post-grunge band then formed and enjoyed commercial success throughout the 1990s, selling more than 10 million records in the United States alone. Bush’s 1994 debut album, Sixteen Stone is certified six times platinum. Bush is back and will be performing in Atlantic City at the House of Blues at Showboat on Thursday, Aug. 4. Although members of the original line-up, primarily Nigel Pulsford, could not be convinced to reunite with the rest of the gang, Bush is gearing up for the Sept. 13. release of its new album, The Sea of Memories. For the new record, the band teamed up with producer Bob Rock (Aerosmith, Metallica), which Rossdale describes as quite the collaborative “lovefest.” Bush’s new single, “The Sound of Winter,” which premiered on a recent episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live, has already made its way up the music charts, stealing a slot on the iTunes Top Ten alternative songs list. Rossdale, vocalist and guitarist of Bush, recently called Atlantic City Weekly while making his way from a New York City hotel to the airport. Here are excerpts from the interview. Tell me what happened in London of 1992. When you walked into that nightclub, did you ever think meeting Nigel [Pulsford] that evening would lead you to form Bush? No. Yes, it was that first night [of us] playing Neil Young into the early hours. No, I never thought that. Nor did he, because he had been around with a band and I think he was

I think I’ve pushed it a little bit and I got better in the studio. I got more articulate with it and I found a way to express myself clearer. And also, my drive and desires are as strong as ever. If you commit yourself to one craft in your life as your job, then you should keep getting better, so that is what is exciting. It is a marriage between what is new and interesting and yet not forsaking the Bush sound that people are familiar with. It is very important to me that this record stands on its own merit, that people can just pick this whole thing up and fall in love with the band just based on this album.

By Michael Pritchard It says something about the popularity of an art show — especially one centered around surfing in a shore town like Ocean City — when the show actually outlives the art gallery that created it. But that’s the case with the 11th annual Art of Surfing Festival, which will run from Thursday (Aug. 4) to Saturday at the Music Pier. The festival was started by the owners of the former Sagemore Surf Gallery in the city. But a little thing like the closing of the gallery wasn’t enough to squash this popular festival. “The economy took its toll on us,” says Steve Miller, one of the gallery’s former owners. “But we still maintain all our contacts and we’re in touch with our artists and this show has always been really popular. So it’ll be a little like a reunion for us this year, you know, like seeing our long lost cousins.” Miller and his partners first got the inspiration for the show in a moment of pure surfing zen — while waiting for waves in a surfer’s lineup off Ocean City’s beaches. “We looked around us and we realized that there were doctors and bankers and lawyers … just all types of people out there with us. And we thought, ‘With so many people into surfing, how would a show on surfing art do?’ So the first year we held it around Christmas, and more than 300 people showed up for opening night,” says Miller. “I mean they crowded
into our small gallery. So we thought, ‘Man, what would happen if we had it in August?’ So the next year we tried it and got 3,000 people and its been growing since then.” Eventually the event grew so large it moved into the Music Pier. As the show continued to draw, it eventually was able to grab a premiere date, the first weekend in August which coincides with the city’s annual Boardwalk Art show. That show, scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, brings out regional artists who set up their wares on the city’s Boardwalk. “People say to us, aren’t they your competitors?,” says Miller. “No. We both benefit from each other. It’s more artists and more art to enjoy and hopefully buy. It just makes the whole event better.” As part of the Art of Surfing Festival, free live music will be presented each night in the Music pier’s Loggia at 6pm. Two bands perform Thursday and Friday and The Sharkskins headline Saturday. Also appearing at the festival will be former 76ers owner Pat Croce, signing his book Blackbeard, from 7-9pm Friday. “We have something for everyone and we really try to make it a family event,” says Miller. “There’s everything from posters that are $10 to original oil paintings that can be $3,000 to $4,000 dollars. And everything in between. It’s just really a fun event that seem to bring more people out each year.” The Art of Surfing Festival will be held 7-10pm Thursday and noon-10pm Fri. and Sat. The Boardwalk Art Show will be held from 10am6pm Fri. and Sat. and 10am-4pm Sunday. n

Cole Bros. Circus Coming to Town(s) Regarded as the world’s largest circus underneath the big top, the Cole Bros. ‘Circus of the Stars’ has been entertaining crowds for 127 years. By Cori Rosen

AUGUST 4, 2011 • ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY
RIMSON AND GOLD CANOPIES raise up towards the sky as the staff of the Cole Bros. Circus craft the three-ring big top at the crack of dawn. Not until five hours have elapsed is the tent ready for the show. While the big names like Ringling and Barnum and Bailey decided to cut their budget and stick to performing in arenas only, the Cole Bros. adhere to preserving circus tradition by engulfing audiences underneath the tented big-top venue. John W. Pugh, president and CEO of Cole Bros. Circus, aimed to rejuvenate the Cole Bros. brand by reshaping the tent design typically used by American circuses. In an effort to exclude the maze of poles throughout the tent, Pugh’s innovative design led to a tent that comfortably seats 2,000 circus goers and grants them a virtually unobstructed view of the circus acts. Ringleader Chris Connors, along with his circus family, is hauling the three-ring tent to Mays Landing, Seaville, and Rio Grande this month. The Cole Bros. Circus of the Stars has been entertaining crowds for 127 years and is regarded as the world’s largest circus underneath the big top. Although hundreds of circuses have appeared and vanished since the 1800s, the Cole Bros. Circus has survived and continually captivates audiences of all ages. William Washington Cole (1847-1915) started the mobile community in 1884, reeling in great success (he left an estate worth $5 million when he died). After being sold and resold to prosperous families throughout the years, the renowned Clyde Beatty performed with the circus troupe, which created the prolonged association of the Cole Bros. and Clyde Beatty names. John Pugh and his wife, Brigitte, now own the circus company. Pugh has nicknamed his band of circus performers as the “I-95 Show” since the traveling company practically stops at every destination along route I-95. The Cole Bros. circus journeys to about 110 cities a year — three cities a week starting in March and perform-
ing until Thanksgiving. Aside from the human beings that perform, Under the star-studded ceiling, the Cole lions, tigers, and bears (oh my!) can be witBros.

mance that night. Plus a few minutes for an Atlantic City Weekly interview. Such is the life of a tribute artist — not exactly the pampered life of the celebrities they impersonate. Murdock performed as Spears in Atlantic City in 2007, so this is a return engagement for her. If you visit the Legends in Concert Web site, you will see a lot of different Sinatras, Michael Jacksons, a trio of Madonna and a slew of Elvis impersonators, but there is only one Britney Spears. So Miss Murdock, is that a tribute to your talent? “Probably,” laughs Murdock. “All the Britneys I’ve ever known, they lip-synched and I sing live. I’m lucky that I’m the only Britney [in Legends] so far.” Songs in her portion of the show range from earlier Spears’ hits like “Oops I Did it Again,” to the title track from her latest album Circus. While Murdock says that sometimes the audience is quiet. “I go [from song to song] so fast they’re not sure when to clap but after the show I talk to people and they tell me they love it.” Murdock added that she’s been a fan of Spears, “Since high school and since I was in high school I was told I looked
like her.” Since the real Britney will be in town this Saturday, I wondered what Murdock thought about that. “It will be really weird but cool — I wish I could go to her show but I’ll be working.”
The ‘Legends’ Cast
• Britney Spears — Katie Murdock Katie Murdock grew up in Draper, Utah and has been singing since she was a child. Her mother influenced Katie by playing piano, writing music and singing. Her family recorded Katie along with her brothers and sisters in their basement studio, and sold the tapes in Utah retail outlets. Katie’s professional career began when she met a producer who was putting together a Britney Spears show in New Hampshire. She auditioned for the show and got the part. She joined the Las Vegas Legends in Concert show in 2005. • Marcel Forestieri – Jay Leno For over 30 years the stage has been home to Marcel Forestieri. From his ground breaking Elvis impersonation in 1971, which took him to Wolfman Jack’s “I Saw Radio” tour and “Shock & Rock” revue, Forestieri was destined to be an entertainment force.

new stage show called Legends of Comedy saw a video of Marcel’s parody of Jay Leno and immediately hired Marcel to do his tribute to Leno. While performing at the Trump Castle in Atlantic City, the real Jay Leno heard about it, called Kirchenbaur and asked to see a tape. Within days Jay brought Marcel on the Tonight Show and featured him in a sketch about him being his Clone. Marcel and Jay remain friends to this day. • Coty Alexander — Lady Gaga The versatile Coty Alexander has spent 12 years portraying Madonna in Legends in Concert, but now she has expanded her pop diva skills to portray both Gwen Stefani and in the August portion of Legends, Lady Gaga. Her skills have led to appearances on programs like The Surreal Life, The Carson Daly Show, Good Morning America, E! Entertainment, MTV and the Travel Channel. • William Hall — Michael Jackson William Hall always knew he would be an entertainer. This San Antonio, Texas native has been performing since he was three. A consummate musician playing keyboard, bass and drums, William studied art, business and music composition and production in college. He is not the only musical talent in the family. He attributes his sister, a choir director along with his parents and God as the driving influences in his career. His love for singing and dancing and his friends and family contributed to his decision to perform his tribute to Michael Jackson. Preparing for his tribute to Michael Jackson in Legends in Concert is his greatest challenge. “It involves a lot of makeup.” He also performs as James Brown and Prince. • Kevin Mills — Elvis Presley Kevin Mill’s authentic portrayal and fascinating interpretation of Elvis Presley has made him one of the countries most sought after and popular performers in the industry. Kevin’s career soared and took a great leap forward when he was crowned World Champion at the 4th Annual Elvis Impersonator Contest in Memphis, Tenn. Most recently, in November 2007, he was crowned Grand Champion in the Pro Division at the Visions Of The King Elvis Festival in Ontario. He also had a starring role in the TV movie Elvis: The Beginning. ■

HEN JOHN STUART CREATED the first Legends in Concert show, which opening in May 1983 in Las Vegas, it was a novel idea, having a group of performers who not only looked like the stars they portrayed, but did their own singing. Part of the fascination for fans of the show was to hear the music and the style of someone who had passed away. Back in the early 1980s, there were plenty of Elvis impersonators and Beatles shows like Beatlemania, but Stuart expanded the concept to encompass a much wider group of rotating tribute artists, including living artists as well as those on longer with us. One rule was essential, however: a Legends performance always ended with Elvis. Stuart helped create and nurture the tribute artist world to the point that today there is an annual Celebrity Impersonators Convention in Las Vegas. Locally, the wildly popular Fakefest, featuring tribute bands, once again took place at the Deck at the Golden Nugget in June. John Stuart is no longer involved in Legends in Concert, but his concept has been passed down to On Stage Entertainment, which is keeping the Legends’ torch lit with shows in Las Vegas, Branson, Mo., Myrtle Beach, S.C., Foxwoods Resort in Mashantucket, Conn. and Waikiki, H.I. Atlantic City, which hosted its first Legends show in 1985 at Bally’s (a long run ended in Oct. 31, 2005), plus return stops at Resorts and the Hilton, is back in town at Bally’s Palace Theater with a run through Sept. 4. As always, the cast was marvelous, in particular the amazing Brian Duprey as Frank Sinatra, Coty Alexander as Madonna and a topflight Elvis brought to life by Kevin Mills. The cast has just changed for the August portion of the run with Katie Murdock as Britney Spears, William Hall as Michael Jackson, Marcel Forstierri as Jay Leno, Coty Alexander now back as Lady Gaga and Kevin Mills staying on as Elvis. Murdock had quite a hectic day when she arrived in Atlantic City on Tuesday from a gig at Foxwoods. After a cancelled flight, she only had about an hour’s worth of sleep, but had to go from checkin at the hotel, to rehearsal, to a perfor-

FOOD & DRINK
Seafood with a Side of Philosophy Fisch Kitchen has been a summer hit since opening just over a month ago in Margate by a couple with formal degrees in philosophy. By Frank Gabriel
I
t happens every summer, without fail.
Like tropical storms, greenhead flies and sunday night parkway traffic, an upstart ByOB emerges, capturing the fickle fancy of dining cognescenti. this season, that eatery appears to be margate’s Fisch Kitchen, located in space previously housing the ice cream parlor operation of longtime island mainstay Downbeach Deli. Fisch, in case you were wondering, is simply the German language word for that most indigenous seashore foodstuff. It’s also a play on the shared ethnic heritage of co-owners paul and Lauren (nee hammerschlag) erbacher. erbacher, largely responsible for the food side of the business — “the product” — was born in California but spent much of his early life in Germany. Lauren, daughter of Downbeach founders rob and marcy hammerschlag, takes on all service aspects, and according to her husband “handles the books.” But there is much more to this dynamic young couple than just those facile descriptions. Like the fact that they catered their very own wedding reception, on-site here three years ago this October. that mutual attention to detail becomes even more evident on a sun-soaked late July morning, watching them prepping for a busy night ahead alongside staffers. paul, assisted by cook ethan rubin, vigorously rolled out puffy rounds of fresh dough eventually destined to become grilled focaccia. Once finished with that task, the duo rapidly moved on to cutting, weighing and portioning another, smaller house-made bread product, lobster rolls, for use the following day. a painstaking desire to create everything themselves, from scratch ingredients, seems to be a hallmark of this new business. alluding to that fact, erbacher says, “We definitely don’t
believe in the status quo. I’m a very deconstructed cook.” erbacher, along with fellow Fisch Kitchen employee marino rodriguez navarrette, were also both veterans of margate’s superb Dune. this enterprise, however, appears more singularly focused, reflecting paul’s desire to “Keep it simple. We want people to eat.” Glancing at Fisch Kitchen’s menus online — updated daily, based on market availability — serves to reiterate those thoughts. With six entrees like baked whole royal dorade, seared black bass and grilled branzino, along with four “built” items — including on this day “fisch” tacos featuring grilled blue marlin — customers are provided every opportunity to explore the path-less-traveled of the seafood world. throw in four creative vegetable preparations, two soups plus three each sides/desserts — all at friendly price points — and you have a nicely balanced, locally sourced bill of fare.
explaining the concept further, erbacher asserts that in a kitchen as small as his, “you need to be able to express yourself in a utilitarian manner.” since opening 40-some days ago, Fisch Kitchen has already managed to create a cadre of loyal regulars. Lauren even goes so far as to say, “most people have been either referred by a friend or it’s their third visit in a week.” this is undoubtedly influenced by the accessibility of kitchen personnel. the entire cooking arena is open to the public, with paul strongly encouraging interaction. “We’re right here, you can talk to me and see the food I cook.” not obsessed with composing each plate to form, erbacher also authorizes his patrons to communicate their personal preferences and is more than ready to customize offerings to their tastes. tongue firmly planted in cheek, he com-

ments with a wicked grin, “What came first, the menu or the clientele?” Which brings us to another defining characteristic of Fisch Kitchen, a deeply metaphysical approach to what is typically a blue-collar, working-class gig. this makes sense considering that both paul and Lauren possess college degrees in philosophy, hers from Columbia and his from texas Christian university and elmira College in upstate new york. But it’s seafood, in all its wondrous permutations and variety, which most arouses his passions these days. he’s become a sort of pied piper, introducing daring diners to species rarely if ever seen on regional menus. Like earlier this summer when Fisch Kitchen regularly featured Kingclip, known locally as ling, an eel-like fish popular in south africa. Or pocono trout, white Carolina shrimp and local catch Jersey skate, all regularly making their presences felt currently. While lauding purveyors sea-lect seafood and hesh’s for working hard to provide him atypical catches, he adds that, “Fishing has become so market-driven that it’s getting difficult to get unique stuff.” When asked about other elements he’s keen on using for the remainder of the season, paul immediately mentions melons, cucumbers, peppers, corn and peaches. he even went so far as to list possible ingredients for an upcoming week on their Facebook page, asking customers for their suggestions. now tell me another local restaurant that has ever taken that audaciously bold step? Queried about the long-term business plan, Lauren tells us that “We’re hoping to do year-round, if the market dictates,” but adds that there’s certain intent to provide catering for 2011 holiday events regardless of the restaurant’s schedule. n

Casual Elegance at Tre Figlio
Photo BY CRAIg BILLoW
RESTAURANT
ADVERTORIAL
Since 1989, the Cordivari family has brought elegant casual dining to Egg Harbor City at Tre Figlio Restaurant, 500 W. White Horse Pike. Named one of the 1,000 best restaurants in the U.S. by Zagat for 2011, Tre Figlio is known for their homemade pasta — in fact everything on the menu is made from scratch — as the family presents a Neapolitan style of Italian cooking, heavily influenced by the family’s Abruzzi heritage. “My son Jim is the executive chef,” says Toni Cordivari, who started the restaurant with her late husband Giacomo. “And he cooks in the tradition of myself, and also my mom, his grandmother. He really amazes me sometimes.” The family tradition can be seen in entrée selections on the restaurant’s extensive menu, which features several dishes named after Cordivari’s seven grandchildren. “I think that’s a unique thing,”
says Cordivari. “An example is our Pasta Giacomo, named after my husband and one of my grandsons. It’s a very home-style dish with diced meatballs and peppers over spaghetti. People really love that dish.” Tre Figlio also offers an extensive wine list, which has been recognized for excellence several times by Wine Spectator Magazine. Tre Figlio offers a three-course, Pre Fixe menu for $17 and a Happy Hour from 4-6:30pm with half-price appetizers and reduced drink prices. The restaurant also offers banquet services. But most of all, the family run business is family friendly. “Of course, we love families,” says Cordivari. “After all, I have seven grandchildren.”

Ron Powell Tickles the Ivories S undays at C apriccio B runch
Atlantic City’s Resorts Casino Hotel has had many firsts this year — the roll-out of its new property-wide Roaring ’20s theme, three new nightlife venues (Club Piscopo, featuring sets by Joe Piscopo, live music and guest comics, including Victoria Jackson this weekend; Torch, the city’s first casino whiskey bar and lounge with live music on weekends and Prohibition, the first full-time gay casino nightclub in the country) and not one, but three circuses running through the summer. One change that may have slipped under the radar is the new entertainment at the popular Sunday Brunch (10am-2pm; $44.95) at the property’s highly acclaimed restaurant Capriccio. Pianist Ron Powell, pictured, has been warming the hearts of Sunday brunchers and filling the fine-dining room with a gorgeous mix of jazz standards, pop and show tunes, and even some R&B classics this summer. “I try to play for the audience,” says Powell, who is a retired teaching lawyer and hails from Connecticut. Earlier this year, Powell could be found just outside Capriccio on the casino’s Dining Level, playing an under utilized piano for his own enjoyment and others, including Resorts’ head Dennis Gomes. Gomes then invited Powell to play inside the restaurant for the weekly Sunday brunch. It’s been a smash success ever since with Powell gaining a name for himself as a stellar musician throughout the resort town. Check him out this Sunday. Call 344-6000 for reservations. designing your gourmet omelet. Price: $44.95; includes champagne and Bloody Marys.

Now, with membership including 12 casinos, more than 350 local businesses and organizations, as well as hundreds of citizen members from throughout the region, the non-profit organization raises thousands of dollars for scholarships for local high school students and teachers each year and holds some of the biggest and most well-attended soirees and galas in Atlantic City. On Tuesday, Aug. 9., the MBCA will hold its annual Summer Mixer & Silent Auction at FIN, the new seafood restaurant at Tropicana, from 5-7:30pm.

Howard Behrens Exhibit in Stone Harbor
Ocean Galleries in Stone Harbor will hold a fundraiser Saturday and Sunday supporting the Michael J. Fox Foundation in honor of guest artist Howard Behrens, who suffers from Parkinson’s disease. A magnificent gicleé donated by Behrens and framed by Ocean Galleries, “Stairway to Carlotta,”will be on display for silent auction bidding throughout the weekend exhibit. The piece is a framed 24” x 32” limited edition on canvas with a retail value of more than $4,500. The palette-knife artist also returns for his last gallery show with a collection of new artwork and old favorites. “The End of an Era: Twilight Memories,” opens on Saturday, Aug. 6, and continues through Sunday. Behrens will be at the gallery for receptions on Sat., 6-10pm and Sun. 1-3pm. The Villa Carlotta sits on the shore of Lake Como in northern Italy. Built for the Milanese Marquis Giorgio Clerici in 1690, it extends over a 17-acre area in Tremezzo, across from Bellagio, with stunning views of the lake and the surrounding mountains. “Although Bellagio tempts my wife and I to stay there every time we are at Lake Como, the Villa Carlotta [across the lake] beckons me to return each morning to paint her unending beauty,” says Behrens, who personally enhanced the limited edition donation, which is from his private collection. Behrens has been ranked among America’s most-collected artists for the last 25 years. He earned a master’s degree in art and he was the Chief Artist at the U.S. Government Printing Office in Washington, DC. Classically trained and intensely focused, Behrens paints with dramatic intensity, using a palette knife to create his works. Light, color, and texture define his works, which are influenced by Monet and Van Gogh. Ocean Galleries is open from 10am-10pm daily during the summer.

Peter Wolf: ‘This Is Not a Reunion Tour.’ The J. Geils Band frontman says the band’s current tour, which stops at the Borgata Aug. 12 may be the last go around for the Boston blues-rockers. By Ed Condran

“It’s not all about money,” Wolf says. “It’s about what you want to do. Right now we want to play some shows together and we’re doing it. It’s great to go out and revisit material that has been a huge part of our lives. I can do this and do my own thing.” At the band’s Friday, Aug. 12, show at the Borgata in Atlantic City, expect
when I perform. I don’t know any other way. We’re all going to go all out when we play Atlantic City. This might be it for us. We want to go all out so you remember how great of a band we are.” When the group is offstage in Atlantic City, there is one place where you might find them — at the White

House Sub Shop. Justman, who was raised in Margate, loves the White House so much that he gets a cheesesteak “with everything” each time he returns to Atlantic City. It doesn’t sound like a big deal except that Justman is a vegetarian. “The only time I eat meat is at the White House,” Justman says. “It just feels so good going down. I just love the steaks there.” Justman had his first regular sub at the White House nearly a half-century ago. He used to watch musicians

come in during the 1960s for a bite after they played Steel Pier. “You would see guys from the Animals come in and get a sandwich,” Justman tells Atlantic City Weekly. “You couldn’t blame them for coming in. I love Atlantic City. I went to so many shows during the ’60s there. I saw all of the British Invasion bands. I remember when the Rolling Stones played Steel Pier during their early days. They would play a few shows a day. I would see every one of them. I saw great shows by Gene Krupa and Louis Armstrong. I knew that I had to be a musician. What stayed with me was that you rarely saw a clunker at Steel Pier. It was great to grow up in Margate since you were so close to Atlantic City.” Justman left Atlantic City in 1967 as an Atlantic City High School senior for Washington D.C. “It wasn’t easy leaving Atlantic City,” Justman says. “The music scene was just so great. But the cool thing today is that you have so many great places to see live music there. It’s a tremendous place. There is no other place like it. You have the Boardwalk, the ocean air. It brings me back to my childhood even though it’s a much different place with the casinos — but the casinos are a good thing.

It’s just the best place to get a sandwich. If you want to see a great show, you see the J. Geils Band. If you want a [cheesesteak], you go to the White House.” n

the J. Geils Band to deliver tracks, which run the gamut of its canon. “We’re going to play songs from every period of J. Geils,” Wolf, 65, says. Wolf may be able to collect social security, but he moves around like he did a generation ago. He was all over the stage when the J. Geils Band played the Borgata in 2009. “That hasn’t changed,” Wolf says. “I look at what I do like a heavyweight boxer in a title fight. I go out there and I lose five or six pounds

erformances have been few and far between for the J. Geils Band with vocalist Peter Wolf since 1985. The latter left the band due to artistic differences and focused on a solo career. Keyboardist Seth Justman took over as vocalist of the J. Geils band. Since 2006, the group has reunited for a few concerts, primarily charity events. “We did a show for Worcester [Massachusetts] firefighters [in 2006], “ Wolf tells Atlantic City Weekly while calling from Boston. “Not long after that [former Boston Bruin] Cam Neely asked if we would do a benefit for his cancer foundation. And then we did the show at Fenway [Park] with Aerosmith. We re-discovered that we love to play with each other. We’re way over our differences. We just love to get out there and play.” However, Wolf is quick to note that this is not a reunion tour. “We’re not about going out and doing that,” Wolf said. “This is different. This is a very limited run of East Coast dates. This could be the last time we ever play together.” Wolf has a new solo album, Midnight Souvenirs. He’s going to tour behind it but for the moment he’s with the band, which formed in 1967. The J. Geils Band could go out and do the long reunion tour for a nice cash grab but it’s never been about money for the blues-rock band. Wolf left the group at its commercial zenith. The band became a pop sensation during the early 1980s with such hit singles as “Love Stinks” and “Centerfold.” However, that’s when the band had its disagreements. Rather than iron it out, Wolf and the group went its separate ways.

Go Godard Go!
Michael Godard, ‘the rock star of the art world,’ comes to Atlantic City for two special events — at the Borgata and at the Pier Shops at Caesars.

been seen all over tV in recent years, on shows like a&e’s Criss Angel’s Mind Freak, American Casino, Inked, and hBo’s Cat House. Why? Well, it’s not just because the las Vegas native has established himself as one of the most collected artists of today, with his olive-motif “story” paintings hanging in the homes of the wealthy, especially rock stars, celebrities and sports figures who feverishly collect his work. the former mechanical engineer who “for over 10 years wore a suit and tie” and had his hair cropped short is a rock star more than a painter. in fact, he’s been called the “rock star of the art World” because of his current physical appearance, and even ozzy osbourne digs his work. (dali couldn’t say the same, now can he?) Not only does Godard have his own galleries, including one at the Pier shops at caesars in atlantic city, and travels the globe constantly, but he is following a dream he’s had as a child — actually two dreams kind of: to be “an artist and a musician” — something that in today’s sometimes overwhelming world is a true blessing and inspiration to young artists of any ilk. Godard, who just this week returned from a “quick getaway” in Mexico where he and his girlfriend were invited by his bud criss angel to spend some time “hang[ing] out in paradise,” will be in atlantic city in august for two special occasions. First, Godard will appear at his oh My Godard! gallery at the Pier shops at caesars this saturday (5-9pm) and sunday (noon-3pm) aug. 6 and 7, where fans can purchase Godard’s signed artwork and take photos with the painter. according to his publicist, Godard is currently the “No. 1 best selling artist in the U.s.,” which makes the artist’s local appearances at his gallery even more cool. cooler yet, Godard will also be working with buyers to create original pieces at the gallery. those interested in the opportunity to give Godard an original idea for him to tell a story with his traditional characters and style, can
buy a blank canvas and he will make the custom pieces on site. Blank canvasses can be preordered through the gallery in three different sizes, and are priced from $2,500 to $4,500. last and certainly not least, on thursday, aug. 11, Godard and the Borgata will team up to unveil new Godard-themed slot machines — officially called “Godard’s rocking olives” slot machines. that night at the Borgata’s Gypsy Bar, Godard will host a launch party with live music, drink specials and a few giveaways, including a couple of pieces of Godard’s artwork. so, how does it feel to have your own slot machine? Atlantic City Weekly (just barely) caught up with the busy Godard to talk about his latest achievements. How did the idea for the Godard slot machines, which are debuting at The Borgata soon, come about? i have always got my feelers out looking for fun, new projects [and] i had heard [slot company] aristocrat was interested in exploring new ground as well. i give a lot of credit to them because most gaming manufactures are only interested in obvious themes such as movie rights. i love aligning myself with creative people, those with vision. What is going to be a bigger thrill, having your art adorning the walls of the Officer’s Club in the Pentagon or your name on a slot machine? that’s like choosing between driving a lamborghini or a Ferrari — are you kidding? last year i was a guest of the Navy and spent a few days on one of our aircraft carriers the USS John C. Stenis, so obviously it’s a great honor to contribute anything to those that make our freedom possible. and the slot machine, it’s the culmination of everything i love — math, art, humor, gaming. Will the slots be at other casinos around the country? Word is spreading like wild fire. the question would be more accurate if you ask
By Jeff Schwachter
is there any casino that won’t have the “Godard’s rockin olive” slot machine. Why do you think you are perceived as the “Rock Star of the Art World?” And what does that moniker mean to you? i am sure a lot of it has to do with my appearance. For over 10 years i was a mechanical engineer and wore a suit and tie and growing up my parents always made me keep my hair short. so now i am cutting loose and having a little fun, but when i am touring overseas i get asked quite frequently what famous rock band i play in.
What about Atlantic City do you enjoy and how did you choose A.C. for your gallery at The Pier? Do you have family or friends in the area? No family in the area, but the first thing that comes to mind is the energy in atlantic city. it more than rivals Vegas. How did you come up with the Olive motif concept for your work? Many years ago i had promised a friend a painting for his birthday and he told me he loved to drink martinis and smoke cigars and i decided to add some humor and made the olives with arms and legs and i have been painting them ever since.
How did you become a professional artist? i just decided i wanted to paint full time and i’ve put my heart, soul and sweat into it ever since. Obviously the media attention to you and your work must be a huge thrill, what about your paintings do you think makes them so popular and you such a superstar? i see myself as a storyteller rather than a painter and i think that people really connect with my humor. If you were a musician, living or dead, who would you want to be? i don’t think i would want to be anyone else. But [there are] many with whom i’d like to share their talent.

RY TO IMAGINE CLINT EASTWOOD’S somber western Unforgiven with a side order of his “Man with No Name,” the “Fistful of Datas” episode of Star Trek: Next Generation and several aliens from the current TV series Fallen Skies converging in a highway pile-up. That might begin to describe Jon Favreau’s oddly endearing but eventually supremely silly Cowboys & Aliens. The movie begins without a hint of typical graphic novel ambience as written by Roberto Orci (Fringe, Star Trek), Alex Kurtzman (Iron Man), Damon Lindelof (Lost, Star Trek) and five other credited authors. We are in classic western mode with the specific icons of the genre: a mysterious stranger who wanders into town (Daniel Craig); the spoiled son (Paul Dano) of the iron fist rancher who controls the town (Harrison Ford); the rancher’s loyal Indian ranch hand/tracker (Adam Beach); a likable

but overmatched sheriff (Keith Carradine); a strong-willed woman with her own secrets (Olivia Wilde); a wide-eyed boy (Noah Ringer) who wants to grow up too soon and a mangy dog. The movie moseys along for a fair piece without diving into the alien portion of the story and when it does, with the flying ships and the people being snatched from the sky by alien lassos, it still feels like a western that just happens to have aliens as the bad guys instead of scalp-hungry Indians or a greedy land baron burning out the farmers to make way for his cattle. The story embraces a “Chariot of the Gods,” element, the notion that aliens have been visiting earth for centuries. Craig’s character, Jake, has no memory of what happened to him before he wandered into town and why he has a strange metal bracelet on his wrist that he can’t remove. Turns out he is a wanted outlaw who stole money from the rancher, Dolarhyde. However when the aliens invade and start kidnapping the town folk, all the humans will be working together to stop the hideous creatures that look like a hybrid of the Predator aliens and the “skitters” from Fallen Skies. The classic Schwarzenegger line, “You’re one ugly motherfu@#er,” provides an apt description.

Compiled by AC Weekly Staff: editorial@acweekly.com
Cowboys As the alien element accelerates during the final showdown, the western element loses its hold and the alien story just isn’t as good. An interesting movie rides into silly-town and pretty much stays there, despite the fact that the dream team of Craig and Ford maintain their stoic postures and heroic actions. Wilde’s frontier woman is burdened with some of the plot details that send the movie on the trail to goofy, but Ringer, who was so bad in The Last Airbender, redeems himself as the kid who has to grow up quickly. Beach also remains rock solid no matter how pixilated the plot becomes. Cowboys & Aliens provides a terrific first impression, but when the overwrought alien element arrives full bore, it turns a compelling western into a cheesy, laughable “alien attacks!” B-movie. Still, the film was good enough, long enough, for a marginal thumbs-up.
Crazy Love
Print & Direct Mail
I’ve never been a fan of Steve Carell, but he won me over big time in CSL as nice guy Cal who is truly shocked and hurt when his high-school-sweetheart wife (Julianne Moore), tells him she is having an affair and wants a divorce. His reaction, to take the advice of a lothario, Jacob (Ryan Gosling), and become a barhopping troll himself, is understandable even as we realize his heart isn’t in it. Emma Stone is also in the mix as the woman who makes Jacob think about the risks and rewards of true love, and excellent contributions come from Jonah Bobo as Cal’s lovestruck son, Robbie, and Alaleigh Tipton as the babysitter with her own love issues. Directed by the team of Glenn Ficarra and John Requa (Bad Santa) and a rare oneauthor screenplay by Dan Fogelman (Cars, Bolt), Crazy, Stupid, Love is a good story that is beautifully acted and directed for both optimal laughs and an effective emotional pay off. ■
Clever ‘Crazy Love’
Crazy, Stupid, Love is a comedy that skillfully blends the pain of divorce, parenthood, and slapstick into an invigorating mix that works with the clichés in a way that makes them fresh and painfully real. It is both hilarious and emotionally satisfying.
