FROM THE EDITOR You may or may not know this, but it’s Winterfest time again.

I know. I know. The fourth annual festival-of-all-things-late-January hasn’t really caught on with everyone, at least not to the point where you start checking your schedule three months in advance to ensure that you’ll be in Cache Valley when Winterfest finally comes around again.

At the moment, Winterfest is, in the words of director Julie Hollist of the Cache Valley Visitors Bureau, “a diversion from the inversion.”

That’s actually a pretty good tagline — if it didn’t immediately remind every-

one of the worst part of current winters in Cache Valley. But because of “the I-word,” unless you’re an ambitious skier or snowmobiler, you really did need a diversion this time of year.

I mean, remember 2002? I do. It was one of the best winters I’ve ever spent here, mostly because we were so distracted by Winter Olympics that we didn’t care how cold we were, as long as we managed to secure one of those blue Roots berets and see at least one Olympic event. (My wife and I saw the Canadian women’s hockey team best Russia on their way to the gold medal. Do you believe in miracles, ‘eh?).

So, I definitely understand the desire to hold Winterfest, I just think we need to get together as a community and ... well ... take it up a notch. According to the

schedule, San Diego State’s visit to Utah State on Saturday is part of Winterfest, so why is that game being played inside at the Spectrum? The Super Bowl’s going on outside in cold weather this year, so why not Aggie basketball? How do you think the seventh-ranked Aztecs would fare in 12-degree weather at high altitude?

I’d also like to see 400 North closed off and iced up for that crazy, downhill ice cross sport that Red Bull invented, and snowmobile hill climbs up Old Main Hill.

And why not bring the elk herd down from Hardware Ranch and let ‘em run loose around the downtown area for a few days?

If you like some of these ideas, let me know. If you don’t, please just blame my ramblings on an overabundance of bad air.

— Jeff Hunter

Sundance ’14 winds down

Keep an eye out for ‘Mitt’ and ‘Cooties’

The Reel Place Aaron Peck

After a week of festival going, it’s time to report back from Park City. This year’s Sundance Film Festival has proven once again to cover a wide swath of the independent film scene.

I’ve seen some great movies, but I’ve also seen some stinkers. Over the next few months, and on into next year, you’ll start to see these films released to the general public. Here are a few to keep your eye out for.

“Life Itself” — Based on Roger Ebert’s memoirs, “Life Itself” is a documentary directed

by Steve James (“Hoop Dreams”) about America’s most famous movie critic.

Not only does the movie chronicle the life and times of Roger Ebert, it’s also able to capture the last days of when he was in the hospital. It’s an emotional story about one of the greatest modern American writers. At the movie’s premiere I had the pleasure of sitting directly in front of Marlene Iglitzen, the wife of the late Gene Siskel and about five seats down from Roger’s wife, Chaz Ebert. It was an emotional screening. A touching, honest film that doesn’t sugarcoat the darker days of Roger’s life, it’s owned

“Mitt” — One of the

most anticipated films, especially for folks in Utah, was the film about Mitt Romney.

The cameras follow around Romney during his two bids for president, recording his first failure to receive the Republican nomination in 2008, and then his second loss to President Barack Obama in 2012. What’s interesting about the film is that it’s not a political statement. Instead “Mitt”

is more concerned about understanding what a campaign does to a close-knit family such as the Romneys.

However, much of the time it feels like a glorified home movie. It will air on Netflix Instant beginning today.

“The Raid 2” — “The Raid” was a smash hit at

Sundance in 2012. Then the public saw it and couldn’t get enough. Director Gareth Evans hurried out to make a sequel, which premiered to adoring fans this year. If you’re a fan of non-stop martial arts action, then this See DOWN on Page 12

The Arden Shakespeare finally published this work as “Double Falsehood” in 2010. The script was considered largely unplayable due to a couple of missing pieces, but Gregory Doran, artistic director of the Royal Shakespeare Company worked with Spanish playwright and Cervantes scholar Antonio Alamo to add a few scenes based on the story found in “Don Quixote.”

The resulting play garnered rave reviews when the RSC staged it in 2011, and it is their script Logan Youth Shakespeare will bring to life in Logan.

Ski Safe, Ski Fun Ski Food....To Go

LOS ANGELES (AP) — “Ride Along” arrived in first place at the weekend box office.

The Universal buddy cop comedy featuring Kevin Hart and Ice Cube debuted with $41.2 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. The strong opening for “Ride Along” marks the biggest debut for a film released during Martin Luther King Jr. Day weekend and puts it on track to top the $40.1 million record set by the 2008 monster movie “Cloverfield” for the biggest opening of January.

“It certainly appears with business at this level and with a CinemaScore of A and our exit polls supporting that, it’s safe to say we’ll break a few records,” said Nikki

Rocco, head of distribution for Universal.

“Ride Along” is the first starring role for Hart, whose box-office status has been on the rise since the success of his 2013 stand-up film “Kevin Hart: Let Me Explain” and memorable stints in such movies as “Think

Like a Man,” ‘’This Is the End” and “Grudge Match.”

“He’s everywhere it seems,” said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for box-office tracker Rentrak. “I know he was co-starring with See SPOT on Page 13

ARTISAN BREAD

By Jocelyn Noveck AP National Writer

If lofty intentions, determination and hard work were all it took to make a successful movie, then “Gimme Shelter,” a film about teen pregnancy starring former Disney star Vanessa Hudgens, would have it made.

Both the actress, who gained weight and made herself strikingly ungainly for the role, and director-writer Ronald Krauss clearly put their all into this film. Krauss went so far as to spend a year at a shelter for pregnant homeless teens; this was a passion project.

But passion isn’t always enough. “Gimme Shelter” suffers from stilted dialogue, less than crackling storytelling and vaguely drawn characters. Yes, there are moving moments that will have you shedding a tear. But at times it has all the narrative sophistication and subtlety of a public service ad (and let’s face it, those can make you cry, too.)

First things first: The title has nothing to do with the Rolling Stones.

It refers quite literally to the shelter for homeless, pregnant teens that takes in 16-year-old Apple (Hudgens). Though the film is said to be based on a real story, Hudgens’ character is actually an amalgam of several young women. The shelter is real, as is its admirable founder, Kathy DiFiore, played by Ann Dowd in one of the film’s more appealing and grounded performances.

Hudgens appears in virtually every frame, and she does an impressive job creating yet more distance from her Disney persona, a process she

Heck, they make the appointment.

At the clinic, an unsympathetic nurse (it’s not hard to detect this film’s anti-abortion message) tells her to hurry up; she’s keeping the doctor waiting. Apple takes a look at her ultrasound photo, decides she can’t go through with it, and bolts.

Her luck turns when an accident lands her in the hospital. There, she meets a chaplain (James Earl Jones) who tries to melt her hostile reserve, get her some religion, and get her to a shelter.

Though life for Apple AP Photo/Roadside Attractions quickly gets better at the shelter — Hudgens Vanessa Hudgens acts in a scene from the new Ron Krauss film “Gimme Shelter.” cleans up fast, maybe voraciously, like an animal, too fast — there’s little son, in an effectively frightening, go-for-broke and exudes a mix of anger, dramatic tension in the sadness and deep discom- last act of the film, save performance).

‘The Life of the Artist’

Story by Lis Stewart

Like most people, I am given to sloth and enjoy sleep. I especially love to sleep during movies, televised baseball and webinars. However, I have no problem getting up early because most days I’m glad to escape my dreams.

“Sweet dreams” is a euphemism that has never drilled its way down to my subconscious. I wish I could dream of puppies and unicorns, or, failing that, something that would make me blush to retell. Neither do I have cinema-quality, 3-D nightmares; just a multiplex variation of

anxiety dreams.

I have no looming performances, races or job evaluations. I’m about as healthy, wealthy and wise (your joke here) as I’m ever going to be, but I’m having Sisyphean

anxiety dreams. They are the kind of dreams that would make great black-and-white German art-house films with Sigmund Freud played by Woody Allen wearing a leotard.

Maybe because I have always put a premium on creativity, I have never had the textbook anxiety dreams of being caught naked in public, or stuck at the grocery checkout with 30 items and no way to pay for them. Now you get that level of embarrassment just trying to check out at Whole Foods without your own sustainable, organic hemp woven bag.

When I played sports

on a more serious level, I would always dream of showing up for a big race with two left shoes or forgetting one shoe or having the dry-weather shoes on for wet conditions or having the clip thing fall off my bike shoe one mile into the race.

You have probably figured out by now that I mainly do shoe sports.

It’s now worse than that.

A couple weeks ago I dreamt that I left my entire bike in a motel room 500 miles away.

Years ago in another life when I did standup comedy in some of the finer drunken dives around Utah, I never

had dreams about forgetting my routine or getting heckled. Even with that way in the past I dream about being in a play that I hadn’t rehearsed for, or being in a band and somehow being handed an instrument that I didn’t know how to play.

Mainly I have bad packing dreams even though I don’t travel much. I dream about forgetting a battery, a screw or the correct size socket wrench. Keeping a pen and paper on the nightstand seems to help alleviate this somewhat.

Sometimes my anxiety dreams really escalate and I discover

that I have committed a crime that is going to send me off to jail any day, and I can’t figure out how I’m going to get all my goodbyes in. Usually I haven’t killed anyone; I have just done something bad enough to lose my job and embarrass my friends’ relatives.

I’m worried that it is all somehow related to caffeinated coffee, but if I eased up on the coffee, I would just sleep more and have more anxiety dreams. So, yet another thing to be anxious about.

Books New Piper Donovan mystery is the best so far

By Waka Tsunoda Associated Press

Piper Donovan doesn’t care about playing detective. She’d rather design wedding cakes and go to auditions for TV and film roles.

To the delight of her fans, however, Piper has another close encounter with evil in “That Old Black Magic,” the fourth installment of the series by Mary Jane Clark. baker in a renowned Piper goes to New pastry establishment.

in the middle of a murder spree.

As a creepy locale for a mystery, the Big Easy couldn’t be better.

Cemeteries have aboveground tombs, a bar displays voodoo talismans and the bakery that Piper is visiting sells voodoo doll cookies with chocolate needles in their hearts.

Enhancing the local color are intriguing characters such as a maid and her brother who practice voodoo, a tour guide working on a doctoral dissertation on nursery rhymes, a descendant of

But who’s behind the bloodshed in the city’s famed French Quarter?

The author hides the culprit and motive so well that even the seasoned armchair detective may not guess the truth before Piper comes face to face with the murderer.

Perfectly paced and plotted, “That Old Black Magic” is the most accomplished Piper Donovan mystery so far.

Teixeira Continued from Page 4 did street performances nationally with The Derby and The Red Eyed Rounders. She then teamed up with the all-girl, country-folk band Barley Wik, with whom she released two full length albums, touring nationally for three years.

Upon meeting Russell, instant chemistry led to the start of a great, new musical adventure.

Teixeira quickly packed her suit-

case and began touring full-time with Po’Girl, first as their bass player and backup vocalist, and quickly moving into accordion, banjo, guitar, ukulele, gutbucket bass, percussion and lead vocals.

Starting in 2012, Po’Girl decided to slow their touring schedule in order to pursue other musical projects. Inspired by her many years on the road, her Portuguese-Canadian heritage and her numerous internationaltouring experiences, Teixeira embarked on her first, longawaited, solo project bringing together an incredible collection

of songs in her album “Where The Darkness Goes.”

On her 2012 solo release tour of the UK and Netherlands, Teixeira received five-star reviews and was called the next “undisputed Queen of Roots Music,”

by No Depression. With her fantastic songwriting ability and compelling stage presence, Teixeira has been likened to such legends as Emmylou Harris and Dolly Parton. After just releasing her first-ever EP “Thunderbird”, she is already putting the plans together for her second album to be released this fall.

Jazz Kicks Band to play Tuesday The Jazz Kicks Band directed by Larry Smith will present the music of Stan Kenton at 7:30 p.m.

Tuesday, Jan. 28, at the USU Performance Hall.

Admission is $8 for adults; students are free.

A pianist, Kenton started his band in California in 1941, composing and arranging much of the music himself. He called his first band “Artistry in Rhythm” after his composition that was used as the band’s theme song. Over the next few years he gained a national following.

Kenton was very forward looking, searching for new ideas, striving to make his band embody his concept of how a jazz orchestra should sound. He called his music “progressive jazz” and was very popular with the college crowd.

Kenton’s band was powerful and featured a 10-piece brass section, when other bands made do with seven or eight brass.

He hired very imaginative composers and arrangers who could give his band the distinctive sound he was searching for.

Kenton kept touring with his band until his death in 1978, long after most band leaders had given up.

you’ll see in a theater this year.

“The Babadook” — I never actually got to see this film, but the word coming out of Sundance is that it’s astonishingly scary. In a world full of endless “Paranormal Activity” remakes, won’t it be nice to get something that feels original in the horror department? Apparently “The Babadook,” a movie about a possessed children’s book, is

creating quite a stir among the festival’s audiences. This is one to certainly keep an eye out for.

“Cooties” — Speaking of horror, there’s a ridiculous movie up here starring Elijah Wood, about a school of kids that are turned into flesh-eating zombies after consuming an infected chicken nugget.

If anything, the beginning of the movie will make sure you never eat a chicken nug-

get again, as it goes through the entire creation process, including the now-infamous pink sludge. “Cooties” was funny in spots, had its moments, and will surely be a cult hit amongst zombie fans.

Sadly, I didn’t see many of the movies that are being heralded as the festival’s best.

For whatever reason I simply made a lot of wrong choices when picking films to see. It

also didn’t help that I had to go back to my day job at the beginning of this week; years past I’ve spent the entire week up on the mountain seeing as many films as possible. This year, I saw a few good ones, mostly mediocre ones. But with the news of so many movies getting bought at the festival, though, there’s a good chance that most of the talked about films will see wide releases.

Trying to do what’s right, Pay my taxes and bought a home.

I saw the sparkle In your eyes Like when twinkling stars Light up the skies

Your laughter filled My heart with love As angels would From up above

Being a teen in the Fifties, Were the best years, and so nifty, Walking to junior high uptown, The old school was tore down.

I’m working hard, To pay off the loan.

It takes two weeks, To get my check.

I remember your warmth And your tender touch Your loving arms I needed so much

So if you get hurt And feeling blue I’ll be right there To comfort you

Dances and games in the gym, Was exciting as learning to swim.

Learn to cook, learn to sew, Off to school we would go.

By that time bills, Are up around my neck.

I’m just a working man, Who doesn’t get uptight.

Trying to do what’s right, I give to the bank.

I give to the store, I give to the beggar.

I give to the poor, I don’t make a lot of money.

But that’s alright.

“Jack Ryan,” which stars Chris Pine in the titular role, debuted with a disappointing $17.2 million. The film directed by and also featuring Kenneth Branagh performed better overseas, where it nabbed $22.2 million in 29 international markets.

“Devil’s Due” featuring Zach Gilford and Allison Miller as parents expecting their first child amid spooky occurrences birthed $8.5 million in its opening weekend.

Several films nominated for Academy Awards last week received a bump at the North American box office following their nods on Thursday, including “American Hustle” in sixth place with $10.6 million, “August: Osage County”

in eighth place with $7.6 million and “The Wolf of Wall Street” in ninth place with $7.5 million. “The Wolf of Wall Street” also scored $27 million in 19 international territories.

The best picture contenders “Gravity,” ‘’Captain Phillips,” ‘’12 Years a Slave” and “Dallas Buyers Club” were all rereleased in theaters this weekend following their Oscar nominations. “Gravity” is up with “American Hustle” for the most trophies with 10 nominations each at the 86th annual ceremony set for March 2.

“The Oscars definitely have an impact on studios’ decision-making process,” said Dergarabedian. “These are movies that would normally be played out, finished, pretty much done in terms of box office, and now they’re getting a completely new lease on life.”
