Slain toddler found south of Springtown Locals making bridge a memorial for 19-month-old girl By Natalie Gentry A small unassuming bridge on Sarra Lane, located a quarter mile west of Old Agnes Road in Springtown has taken on the tragic moniker of “grave site.” It is in a space under the bridge that 18-month-old Tylea Moore was buried after she was killed by her mother’s boyfriend. Local residents have quietly been tying ribbons and stuffed animals on the bridge in memory of the toddler. According to the Arlington Jail inmate list, Joshua Beard, 20, of Arlington has been charged with capital murder in connection with the death. He was already in the Arlington jail
for unrelated traffic charges. The child’s mother Alexis Botello, 17, has been charged with felony tampering with, or fabricating physical evidence (human corpse) and injury to a child. According to the search warrant affidavit, Botello, 17, told police that after Beard beat the toddler to death he put her body in the trunk of Botello’s car in order to dispose of it. The couple, both graduates of Weatherford High School, then drove to Walmart in Weatherford and bought shovels and gloves. They were looking for a bridge in a remote area when they found the PLEASE SEE BRIDGE, PAGE 2A.

Making every SISD cent count CFO oversees $25.5 million by mark k. campbell Gary Shaw, Springtown ISD’s chief financial officer (CFO), knows he has a big responsibility. He’s the person who directs the school district’s funds; for the upcoming 2014-15 year, that will mean properly taking care of $25.5 million. Shaw detailed to the Springtown Optimist Club July 8 just how the average dollar is spent annually. By far the biggest chunk of each dollar – 57.5 cents – goes to “Instruction.” That means salaries and benefits
for teachers and aides. Another 1.5 cents goes toward training and curriculum, so that’s 59 cents out of every dollar quickly accounted for. The next greatest expenditure, at 9.4 cents, is maintenance services. Shaw said that could be everything from replacing air-conditioners to parts approval. “There are hundreds of air-conditioner units on district buildings,” Shaw said. Getting children to school takes up
the next biggest chunk of the budget at 6.5 cents. “We give kids rides if it’s too far or there are unsafe conditions,” he said. Keeping the buses running is a substantial expense, Shaw noted. “Campus leadership” – administrative supervisors handling day-today “operational details” – tallies 5.2 cents. Shaw said the 4.8 cent “Utilities” budget has been lowered in recent years. PLEASE SEE CFO, PAGE 4A.
LaJunta Fire
Firefighters from LaJunta, Springtown, and Azle Fire Departments responded to a structure fire call in the 100 block of Canyon Valley Lane July 8 at approximately 7:17 p.m. that resulted in the total loss of the home. While the family was not at the house at the time the fire started, the male homeowner received minor burns and smoke inhalation after he attempted to put it out once they arrived. He was taken by ambulance to Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Azle. One firefighter was treated on the scene for overheating. Preliminary investigation revealed a possible overloaded circuit as the probable cause of the fire. Photo by Natalie Gentry

site in the 1900 block of Sarra Lane. There, according to the affidavit, they dug the grave and buried the child. Botello later led investigators to the site, according to Lt.
Christopher Cook, an Arlington police public information officer. “We do believe we have enough evidence to charge Mr. Beard, who is in our jail,” Cook said. Both Beard and Botello remained in the Arlington Jail
July 9. Beard’s bond is set at $1,000,000 bond for the capital murder charge, and Botello’s is set at $125,000. And heartbroken area residents continue to remember Tylea on that lonely Sarra Lane bridge.
Soon after word of the discovery of a child’s body was announced, local residents began a makeshift memorial for the little girl on a bridge on Sarra Lane, just west of Old Agnes Road. Photos by Mark K. Campbell

Springtown gardener Melvin Maly has stayed busy canning and pickling his harvest this year. Photos by Natalie Gentry
Harvesting the good earth Springtown man labors in garden then shares the bounty By Natalie Gentry Cultivating a garden in the typical Texas summer can be a challenge, even for the most stalwart of gardeners. The intense heat, poor soil, and drought-like conditions require dedication to get plants to grow. Melvin Maly wouldn’t let any of these obstacles stop him or his garden. Maly moved to Springtown from Kansas City 10 years ago. In that time, he has continuously worked to enhance and increase the productivity of his garden. “It’s taken me 10 years to get to this point,” Maly said. “This
year has been a great year.” Surrounded by a 5-foot fence to keep critters out, the garden is a riot of green amidst the sun bleached pastures. Zucchini, butternut squash, and tomatoes peek from beneath the foliage waiting to be picked. The recent rains may have helped push some of the vegetable over the top – his Armenian cucumbers, for example – but Maly emphasizes the key to his garden is the soil. “I go out to where I feed the cattle and bring in the manure,” he said. Using it has helped fortify

the soil with nutrients that it normally lacks. Another key element to his success is his irrigation. “I use a few soaker hoses around the beds and they do a good job watering everything,” he said. “It really doesn’t take much.” The vegetables from Maly’s garden are either canned for munching on the rest of the year or shared with others. “It’s been such a great crop this year,” Maly said. “I’ve taken vegetables to my chiropractor’s office, the ladies at the bank, and the pharmacy.” He also took buckets of cu-

CFO monitors SISD budget n CFO, FROM PAGE ONE.
“We replaced the lighting in gyms with lights that are 75 percent more efficient,” the CFO said, adding that LED lights are used now when current lighting fails. He added, “We used to spend over $1 million on utilities; now it’s much less.” Other costs: District-Wide – 4.8 cents. Shaw said this covers state and federal law compliances. Extracurricular – 3.2 cents. Successful ISD programs and students outside of school hours mean additional expenses. Counseling – 2.5 cents. Students receive information on preparing for college and SAT testing among others. Library – 1.7 cents. The ISD strives to stay current to offer students up-to-date materials. Date-Processing – 1.5 cents. This covers the required reporting caused by state and federal mandates. Nurse – 1.0 cent. Shaw said most people are surprised to hear that the least

expensive expenditure for the district is food service. It is just 0.4 cents out of every dollar despite the feeding of hundreds of children daily. That’s because of local help – like the Methodist Church’s snack pack program and Brookshire’s, he said – as well as substantial governmental funds that cover most of the expense. Shaw said the kids who eat on the free or reduced meal programs – 60 percent of them – are from the ISD’s three elementary schools. Things change by the time students reach high school. “There’s a stigma attached,” he admitted. Shaw said new federal nutritional guidelines are another reason why some children don’t eat at school; they simply don’t want the kind of meal that is required. “Most of the food goes in the trash,” he said. The SISD budget covers 481 employees with its $25.5 million budget. Of those funds, Shaw said the state contributes “15 to 16 million” while local taxes fund the remainder, 9.5 million.
No one was injured, but a lot of folks noticed a gray 1998 Dodge Durango in the creekbed between El Paseo Mexican Restaurant and Arby’s Thursday morning, July 3, after a minor accident on North Stewart Street. According to the accident report, Terry E. Wilson, 51, of Springtown, was driving the Dodge when he looked away from the roadway and drifted into the oncoming lane, clipping the rear of a red 2014 Jeep SUV driven by Troy D. Adams of Azle. The result was a trip into the creekbed for Wilson. Photo by Terry Thomas

Fido Facts
SISD secures drug sniffing dogs again By Natalie Gentry The Springtown Independent School District (SISD) has secured Black Creek K-9 Services to provide canine detection teams on the campuses throughout the district. “We haven’t had drug dogs on our campuses in several years,” SISD Superintendent Mike Kelley said. The service used to be partially funded by federal grants, but since that time canine teams have been absent from the schools. According to Black Creek’s website, the use of canine detection teams has significantly increased in schools over the last 15 years. All of the canine teams are certified by the
• Dogs were first used on the battlefield in the US during the Civil War to locate wounded soldiers. • Dogs use their sense of smell like humans use their eyes. • Dogs have olfactory glands at the top of their muzzles which allows them to separate odors. This means odors cannot be disguised or hidden from a dog. • Dogs’ sense of smell is up to 10,000 times greater than humans. • Dogs can smell odors even in closed containers, even in Ziploc bags.
United States Police Canine Association; the most stringent and well-respected national organization in the country. In addition, they only employ handlers who have military working dog or police service dog experience. “We’re going to ask them to come out in the fall and spring,” Kelley said. “They will visit the campuses 10 times throughout the year; with two additional visits available if we find a need.” The main objective of employing the canine teams is to discourage students, staff, and visitors from bringing illicit substances to school. “I think we need to bring this service back to the district,” Kelley said.

Owner Angela Howard-Leatherwood says Nickabby’s Collectibles & Hobby Shop is a “dream now come true.” The store – four miles west of Springtown High School just before Rhodes Lane and across from the Seventh Day Adventist Church – offers a bevy of speciality items: refinished/shabby chic furniture like Orchid Cowgirl Furniture; paintings from a local artist; monogramming and craft items; household decor; steampunk decor; vintage and antique jewelry; and trash-totreasure items from a variety of vendors. Then there’s the hobby shop that will open in the fall that contains gaspowered, radio-controlled cars, planes, and helicopters as well as parts and fuel. Vendors looking to become part of Nickabby’s are welcome. (It’s pronounced “Nicabees” and named after her children.) Spaces are for lease with no percentage taken from sales, just a monthly booth fee and a one-time non-refundable deposit. Owner Angela said, “We offer competitive pricing and a friendly atmosphere.” She added that she allows vendors to decorate or revamp their space to accommodate artists’ unique wares. “My goal is to show this community and my guests that I am here for them. I’ll search high and low for the items they may be on the hunt for AND help them add new items to their collections,” Angela said. She and her “awesome” vendors
conducted a Vendor Show and School Supply Drive that was a great success, Angela said. Every second and fourth Saturday is Vendors Trade Days where anyone can set up a booth outside Nickabby’s for $20. Existing vendors enjoy free booths outside on those Saturdays. Food vendors are welcome, too, for a $25 fee. Since only one restaurant is nearby, Angela says food vendors are especially encouraged. The fourth Saturday is also Car Show Day where all makes and models of vehicles – including motorcycles – can show for $35; current Nickabby’s vendors are, again, free. All the Saturday vendor/food/vehicle fees go to a chosen charity of the month. Angela says Nickabby’s came about through her love of “junking.” Her dream of opening her shop was delayed for years by Pseudo-Tumor Cerebra and a degenerative disc disease. After a November 2012 fire destroyed all their belongings, Angela was encouraged when so many “angels” came forward with furniture and clothes to help her family. “Because of this event, I knew it was time for me to do what I could to give back to others, to do what I said in the beginning – my goal. Nickabby’s is exactly that. Paying it forward is what I’m here to do for as long as I am here,” she said.

Love & Laughter – Poems, Analogies & Other Things Volume 1 by Ola Fay Denman Heflin – known by most simply as “Olie” – was released a few weeks ago and is now available for purchase. Heflin says the entire production of the book was the work of God Himself, and that she is the instrument He chose to use. “It’s been a memorable experience,” Heflin said. Heflin says that for many years, she has enjoyed writing in rhyme – something her older sister, Helen Denman Beauchamp did that Heflin admired. “Any time there was a special occasion – a birthday, a graduation, or a special award – I would write my message in poetry,” Heflin said. Her late husband, Harry Heflin, bought Olie her first computer in 1984, and she began collecting poems she’d written in a file on that computer she called “POEMS, analogies and other things.” To prevent the poems from getting lost in a cyber-sea of computer documents, she titled each one with the word “Poem” at the beginning of the file name. Heflin shared that her son, Leck, once asked her if she could write anything that was NOT poetry. But a few years later, when a craniotomy left his mother very ill in the hospital, Leck wondered if she would ever write poetry again. She did, and continues to do so today. Helen wasn’t the only sister who inspired Olie. Her sister Dorothy encouraged her to include her maiden name of Denman at the end of her poems; sister Janie, Heflin says, was the quietest of the four Denman sisters, and her kindness and quiet demeanor inspired her to be more ladylike, she says. “Many times I would wake in the night thinking in poetic sentences and I would think, ‘I better get up and write this down because if I don’t I could fail to remember this in the morning,’” Heflin said. “One of the poems in this first book is named ‘Midnight Rambler’ and it was written about me.” Late in 2011, Heflin’s grandson, David Heflin, suggested: “Granny, we need to get your poems in a book.” It was something she’d wanted to do for a long time, but David had the education and knowledge to make it happen. They got off to a slow start, but eventually, Heflin told her grandson she would begin picking out her best poems for the book. “Granny, don’t do that,” he replied. “The poems you leave out might be the very poems someone needs.” Other family members helped in the process.
A niece, Laurie Springer, is a Latin teacher at Trinity Academy in Addison and an accomplished grammarian. Springer checked grammar and punctuation on Heflin’s poems before they were sent to David. Great-nieces Molly Gooch and Caitlin Beauchamp assisted with editing, and son Leck and daughter Becky helped in various ways throughout the process, Heflin says. David chose an image of a bluebird – long a favorite of his grandmother’s – for the book’s cover with no counseling from her. Then he asked for some of her handwritten notes, and used Heflin’s own handwriting for Love and Laughter the background image. During the slow process of pulling elements for the book together, Heflin began attending The Abbey Church. “Each Sunday, Pastor Paul Brownback prayed for blessings on his flock, and he specifically asked for increase, for surprise financial rewards, provision enough for payment of debts, and for books to be published,” Heflin said. About the third week she heard him pray for these things, both Heflin and her daughter-in-law, Cynthia, were struck by the same realization – that Brownback’s prayers were for the book Heflin and her family members had been slowly working toward publishing. “Sure enough, things started falling in place and within a week or two the book was sent to the publisher,” Heflin said. Through it all, Heflin is sure of one thing. “I was led by God. I would ask for his leadership and his correction, and He gave it freely by leading me in various ways,” she said. “I felt a closeness with God while writing most of my poems. I was raised by parents who had a strong relationship with God and as children we were surrounded by people who loved God and loved us – people who we loved.” Poems on topics ranging from family to treasure, guidance to aging, lessons learned and prayer are included in Heflin’s first book. If you’d like a copy, they are available for purchase for $15 each at The Azle News office, 321 W. Main Street in Azle. We’ll keep you posted as plans for Heflin’s next book are announced.

Susan Carr’s Diary, Part 2: Surviving in the wilderness

e lived with brother George through the winter, living mostly on what game we caught. It was a cold, tedious winter with deep snow. Game was plenty such as deer and moose. “On June 1, 1622, husband started south-west for a warmer climate, with a pocket compass and an Indian guide. Brother George went a two days' journey with us, and then returned home. I carried my son George in my arms and on my back through a dense forest settled only with wild beasts and Indians, but we met with few of the former and none of the latter. After being forty-eight days on our journey, July 18, husband concluded to stop and build a log cabin and to settle for life. In four days, husband, the Indian and myself, finished our log cabin, covering it with poles and peeled bark. My journey through the forest and the hard labor I had done in helping build our cabin, had its effect on me, I felt nearly worn out. “I had left my rich parents and my

How my heart thanked God that our noble captain who brought us safely across the ocean, had come to live with us, and preach and teach us to love God and to keep his commandments.” William and Susan Carr lived in America and in this one place – Bristol, Rhode Island for about seventy years. William Carr died in Bristol, June 4, 1672, and Susan died in the same place, May 3, 1671. William’s brother George settled in Ipswich, and from there removed with the first settler of Colechester, now Salisbury, Massachusetts. He was granted an island in the Merrimac River for a home and the purposes of a shipyard, and it was called Carr's Island. The action of the town in relation to the grant of the island was as follows:

“At a general meeting of the freemen of the town of Colechester, the 3rd day of the 5th month, 1640, it was ordered yt (that) George Carr shall have the island where he now dwells, as well as the marsh and upland, it being the greatest island within the town limits, in the Merrimack river, to him and to his heirs and assigns forever.” Oct. 7, 1640, it was ordered by the General Court that “Colechester is henceforth to be called Salisbury.” George died April 4,1682 in Salisbury, Massachusetts. The island was the home of the Carrs for a number of generations, and the possession of this island gave the family the monopoly of the ferrying business across the river in ye olden times. This ferry at George Carr's death was considered to be worth 400 pounds. Two of the family were drowned while attending the ferry. The large house on Carr's Island was destroyed by fire, May 9, 1797.

Panel gets input on population influx at border
A
U.S. House Homeland Security Committee field hearing titled, “Crisis on the Texas Border: Surge of Unaccompanied Minors,” was conducted in McAllen on July 3. Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steven McCraw was among those who testified. He said unaccompanied Central American children are continuing to make the journey to the United States through Texas in record numbers; and • U.S. Border Patrol detention facilities in the Rio Grande Valley and elsewhere are overwhelmed; • Drug trafficking organizations are gaining power as a direct result of a porous border; and • State troopers, agents and Texas Rangers are being deployed to the Rio Grande Valley “to conduct data-driven, multi-agency, ground, air and marine saturation patrols in high threat areas for sustained
periods of time.” Gov. Rick Perry testified, too. Here are excerpts from what he said: “Last week I witnessed the difficult conditions these children are being housed in while they await action by Washington, whether it’s the right decision to immediately deport them or the shortsighted and tragic decision to essentially turn them loose in the United States. Some might think allowing them to stay is a more humane option, I assure you, it is not. Nobody is doing any of these children the slightest favor by delaying a rapid return to their countries of origin, which in many cases is not Mexico.” U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, chair of the House Homeland Security Committee, listed more than a dozen areas of action the federal government is taking, one of which was public health screenings “for all those who come into our facilities for any symptoms of contagious diseases or other possible public health concerns.”

At the meeting, Abbott promoted a new publication titled “Introduction to Human Trafficking: A Guide for Texas Education Professionals.” He said the publication, available at oag.state.tx.us, would further the task force’s
efforts “to identify, investigate and prosecute human traffickers such as: the realities of human trafficking, federal and state laws defining and prohibiting human trafficking, human trafficking as a form of child abuse, risk factors for schoolaged children, indicators of human trafficking, approaches to responding to an outcry, a mechanism to report human trafficking, and proactive approaches for school districts.” RRC offers BBQ tips Texas Railroad Commission, the state’s energy-regulating agency, on the day before the Fourth of July, made an announcement listing safety tips for Texas estimated six million “barbecue households” that own propane gas grills.

SPORTS Nationally Honored Photographs
9A
Next school year holds several rules changes Cheerleading now a sport, says UIL by mark k. campbell Annually, the University Interscholastic League tinkers with its rules and regulations. Often, those changes are minor but sometimes a major alteration comes along. That has occurred twice in 2014. Back in February, the biennial realignment arrived with the revamping of classifications. Previously, schools were ranked from 6-man to 5A, based on enrollment. The UIL modified that to 1A to 6A. So, Springtown went from being a 3A school to 4A without truly moving up a classification. The other change concerned cheerleading.
These two photos taken by Mark K. Campbell earned honors recently from the National Newspaper Association. The July 2013 7-on-7 football picture above, taken in Leander, took second in the NNA’s Best Sports Photo contest; it was judged to be “a great shot at just the right time. Amazing detail and energy caught in action.” The baseball photo below when Springtown hosted Graham in bi-district ran last May 8 and was deemed the best sports shot of the quarter and published in the NNA’s Publishers Auxiliary July edition.
Cheerleading The debate about whether cheerleading is a sport may have been decided by the UIL. The 32-person Legislative Council approved a one-year pilot program called “Game Day Cheer.” The new event will mimic usual cheerleading activities. However, no aerial acrobatics will be involved. If the pilot program is successful, in the 2015-16 school year, the UIL will govern Game Day Cheer in the same manner as with middle and high school sports. A state championship will also be conducted for cheerleading.
It is tentatively scheduled for January in San Antonio and might bring as many as 700 teams since there are no qualifying rounds earlier. It was the Texas Medical Association that requested cheerleading be considered a sport. As a UIL-sanctioned event, cheerleading now falls under the auspices of established safety and training requirements. The UIL amendment noted that its competition is not designed to “be like or compete” with other cheer competitions. Schools are not required to take part in the Game Day Cheer pilot program. Football Aside from the classification changes, the UIL made some other alterations concerning football. A major new distinction is moving from the 25-second clock between plays to a 40-second clock. This change reflects how the NCAA conducts its play. Also, a pilot study was approved for 6A and 5A schools to permit a 3-day tryout each spring for sixth graders in preparation for seventh grade football. There is no longer a Zero Week, the first week football could be played. It is now referred to as Week 1 with 10 more weeks following. The top four teams from 4A will advance in the playoffs. A
Division I and Division II state champion will be crowned; Springtown plays in Division I. State championship games will be played Dec. 18-20. Other sports The number of teams advancing to cross country state out of regional meets was raised to four and the top 10 racers not already on a qualifying team will also move on. In golf, coaches may now instruct their players from tee to green. General public ticket sales for the 2015 state basketball championships have been delayed while UIL officials try to solve several dilemmas. The availability and affordability of hotels caused by concurrent events has moved the UIL to examine possible alternate dates and locations for the popular hoops contests. A UIL release noted, “The League wants to provide the best state championship experience for student-athletes, coaches, and fans involved.” Last year’s tournaments were conducted at Austin’s Frank Erwin Center on the UT campus. Other sports have already moved out of Austin. State wrestling and volleyball now compete at state in Garland. The UIL said when a basketball site decision had been reached, it would be posted on its website uiltexas.org.
Camps soon to arrive at SHS Two summer camps remain for Springtown youth. A football camp is slated for July 28-31. The fee is $45 for incoming 7th through 9th graders. The camp takes place from
7-8:30 p.m. at the indoor facility. An elite volleyball, led by two successful head coaches with previous SHS ties, arrives July 31-Aug. 2. For grades 9-12, the $125

Movie Man
Thursday, July 10, 2014
Walk like a man to check out Jersey Boys Musical biographies occasionally pop up and soon more than usual will be landing in theaters. If the newcomers are as good as Jersey Boys, then we’re in for some groovy movies. About the film (The Movie Man said he was going to see Tammy this week, but, since he’s like the common man only substantially more educated cinematically, he read the endless horrid reviews and witnessed its lukewarm weekend performance and passed. [The Movie Man’s tricky; he doesn’t always go see what he teases.]) Jersey Boys was a huge Broadway hit. Those older folks with money flocked to see a stage dramatization of the history of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. Clint Eastwood, a talented musician himself, took film direction chores, the movie was written by Marshall Brickman (an early Woody Allen associate [he won an Oscar for penning, with Allen, the great Annie Hall in 1977), and Christopher Walken signed on early. Just when the film version of Jersey Boys look like it was going to be a Hollywood-heavy movie, Eastwood then cast all unknowns, keeping the Broadway lead, Tony winner John Lloyd Young as Valli. Jersey Boys isn’t exactly raking in the cash; that’s too bad – it’s pretty good. Still plenty of other “biopics” loom for musical legends. Historically, there are been some fantastic musical biopics. The Jolson Story (1946) won two Oscars in 1946 with Larry Parks playing the sometimes-blackfaced singer. Jimmy Stewart played the famed bandleader in The Glen Miller Story (in 1954). Later, La Bamba (1987) with Lou Diamond Phillips as Ritchie Valens was a hit and Gary Busey – yes the crazy guy – was Oscar-nominated in The
Buddy Holly Story (1978). Amadeus (1984) was huge Academy Award bait as was Sissy Spacek as Loretta Lynn in Coal Miner’s Daughter (1980). Jessica Lange shone as Patsy Cline in Sweet Dreams (1985). Jamie Foxx was incredible as Ray Charles in Ray (2004, Movie Man No. 548, 7) and Reese Witherspoon won an Oscar as June Carter Cash in Walk the Line (2005, MM #641, 7), the Johnny Cash story. Several biopics are in the pipeline. Before Jersey Boys, a coming attraction about the life of James Brown impressed, Get On Up which will arrive August 1. Being considered are pictures about musicians Whitney Houston, Kurt Cobain, Freddy Mercury, David Bowie, Miles Davis, and Hank Williams. Often, however, there is a big stumbling block to movies about musicians – obtaining the rights to their music. A Jimi Hendrix movie struggled when the filmmakers couldn’t get those rights so in Jimi: All Is By My Side, they had to work around a big obstacle. No “Purple Haze” or “If 6 Was 9”? The movie got a tiny release last March to mixed reviews and will roll out bigger later this year. Jersey Boys has the music rights even though the songs are sung by the actors; they don’t just mime the original records. The Four Seasons had a huge string of hits from 1962-1968 then another burst in ’75-’76. Plus, on his own, Valli had nine Top 40 hits, including a pair of No. 1s. In all, the filmmakers had 39 songs to pull from as the Four Seasons placed 30 songs in the Top 40. (However, they did record others’ music so that number is actually a little lower.) This sort of music seems like the Dark Ages to younger audiences which are staying away from Jersey Boys in droves. (The theater with the Movie

Mike Doyle, playing gay producer Bob Crewe, also invigorates things; he plays the role in an almost swishy stereotype, but it works. The end credit scene is great, a return to an obvious city street set where everyone who has been in the movie performs in a giant dance number. Best scene Piazza gives Bergen a shot as a songwriter. On a piano, he begins playing a song, tentatively. But Young likes what he hears and joins in. Eventually, so do all the band members, inspiring Bergen to be bolder. It’s a great scene and Eastwood handles it perfectly. What doesn’t work After 90 minutes, Jersey Boys bogs down. When Young goes out on his own to cover Piazza’s massive debt, the film flounders. And sequences with his troubled daughter also feel awkward. The biggest gripe about the movie is that the characters aren’t fully developed. Also, Eastwood “breaks the wall” by having the actors talk directly to the audience. That didn’t bother the Movie Man but might distract others. There’s an attempt to highlight other kinds of music that
was round in the era. However, there just isn’t time enough in the movie to do that topic any justice. The rating This is an R for f-bombs only; there are at least 30 ‘cause, hey, they’re from Jersey, yo. Summing up The Movie Man liked Jersey Boys – a lot, for most of it. It dropped a number toward the end. Still the movie deserves better than it’s getting at the box office. Next up Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.

Check Out Our Website At: www.wrteamrealty.com Home Maintenance Tip:
From the ground, examine roof shingles to see if any were lost or damaged during winter. If your home has an older roof covering you may want to start a budget for replacement. Summer sun can really damage shingles. Shingles that are cracked, buckled or loose or are missing granules should be checked and repaired by a qualified roofer.
