FROM THE EDITOR I kind of hate to admit this in front of an audience of Cache Valley readers, but I was a huge UNLV basketball fan back in the ’80s and early ’90s while growing up in Idaho.

It wasn’t until later when I moved to Logan that I realized the frustration that Utah State fans felt towards the Runnin’ Rebels. The first game I ever attended at the Spectrum was an overtime loss to UNLV, back when the Aggies were still trying to beat the Rebels for the first time ever.

But before I became an Aggie myself, I was all for the great Jerry Tarkanian teams featuring the likes of Armon Gilliam,

Larry Johnson and Stacey Augmon.

The first NCAA Tournament game I ever saw in person featured the Runnin’ Rebels vs. the Idaho State Bengals, and it was pretty much Las Vegas vs. Pocatello.

UNLV had shiny uniforms with nicknames like “The Hammer” on the back, not to mention gorgeous cheerleaders and that shark mascot (which Katy Perry apparently resurrected for the Super Bowl halftime show), while ISU had ... well, uniforms that matched their Sears catalog warmups.

A couple of years later, of course, UNLV won the National Championship by crushing Duke by 30 points. But that victory was almost forgotten the following year when the Blue Devils upset the 34-0 Rebels in the Final Four. That two-point loss was just too hard to take ... as my poor mother found out when she returned home to find her yardstick broken into

about eight different pieces.

All those memories of watching those great UNLV teams play came flooding back this week with the passing of Tarkanian, who stepped down at UNLV the season immediately before I started covering USU basketball for The Herald Journal.

While I was sad that I didn’t get to cover games while Tark was still coaching, later on, I did get to write about a couple of clashes between Utah State and Fresno State. And in between his stints at UNLV and Fresno, Tarkanian did show up at an Aggie practice before a game in Las Vegas.

The man couldn’t have been nicer during our brief chat at the Thomas & Mack Center. And that building, school and town certainly won’t be the same now without his personable presence.

Johnson the bright spot of steamy but weak movie

– Cache film critic Aaron Peck on ‘Kingsman: The Secret Service’ (Page 7)

By Aaron Peck Cache movie critic

Throughout the “Fifty Shades of Grey” screening I attended, there were bouts of nervous and genuine laughter. The nervous laughter was sporadic.

Probably a way for some of the audience members to cope with the visualization of the steamy sex scenes portrayed in E.L. James’ best-selling bodiceripper.

The genuine laughter was, actually, quite surprising. One thing I wasn’t expecting from “Fifty Shades of Grey” was that it might be truly funny.

All props go to Dakota Johnson as the unassuming, college-aged virgin Anastasia Steele. She’s got some deft comedic timing.

It’s really the only redeeming aspect of this otherwise unbearable movie-going experience.

“Fifty Shades of Grey” begins with such obvious characterization that it’s hard not to roll your eyes.

Anastasia walks around in frumpy clothes, sports mussed hair, works in a hardware shop, and happens to be an English literature major. Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan), on the other hand, is a billionaire, he flies helicopters, has an immaculately organized

‘Once Upon a Mattress’ Logan seeks poet laureate Sky High Players presenting musical through Saturday

From the rough-aroundthe-edges princess swimming the moat when she arrives, to the Nightingale of Samarkand singing and squawking her to sleep, the play portrays a tyrant queen mother who refuses to let her son, Dauntless the Drab, get married. Unfortunately, no one

Colin Firth, in glasses, and Taron Egerton and share a scene in the new film, “Kingsman: The Secret Service.”

★★ ‘Kingsman: The Secret Service’ Director // Matthew Vaughn Starring // Colin Firth, Michael Caine, Mark Hamill, Samuel L. Jackson, Taron Egerton, Mark Strong, Sophie Cookson, Sofia Boutella Rated // R for sequences of strong violence, language and some sexual content

shaky-cam and lightningquick editing, Vaughn approaches the action as a battlefield waiting to be explored.

During one of the movie’s most bloodfilled scenes, the camera swoops in and out as Firth dispatches attackers with vicious ferocity. Seriously, these scenes are not for the squeamish. They’re heavily digitized, much of the action being pieced together with the help of computers, but the result is a seemingly seamless flow of death. It’s quite startling to witness.

One sequence in particular goes on and on without showing signs of stopping.

It’s an epic, cinematic bloodlust that will leave

some cheering and others headed toward the door.

The body count is outrageous.

amount of violence in a spy movie is refreshing.

What I mean by that is that PG-13 violence is so unrealistic. People get shot, and they simply fall down. The consequences of violence are muted beyond recognition in PG-13 movies.

Vaughn turns up the gore here, though one could argue he does it with such determination and zeal that it could be interpreted as vulgar.

It’s the first time I’ve watched a studio-backed violent action movie and

thought that it could’ve received a NC-17 rating on violence alone. Perhaps it would have if Vaughn wouldn’t have thought of such a “colorful” ending — after you see it you’ll know what I mean.

The story centers on Eggsy (Taron Egerton), a London townie, whose dad died training to be a Kingsman. Now Galahad has pegged Eggsy as a prime candidate for a new vacancy. Eggsy brings a bit of edge to the stuffy oldboys group. Sort of like a weird melding of “Attack the Block” and James Bond. Of course, the motto “Always a gentleman,” routinely falls on deaf ears with Eggsy, especially during the final scene, which in its own way completely

undermines the movie that came before. What a witless way to end an otherwise fun movie.

The cast is rounded out by the usual British heavy-hitters like Mark Strong, Michael Caine and Jack Davenport.

Samuel L. Jackson does his best Mike Tyson impersonation as villainous media mogul Valentine, who just can’t stand the sight of blood. As is repeated in the screenplay, “A spy movie is only as good as its villain,” and Jackson does a decent job.

While the action is exhilarating (perhaps nauseating for some), and the entire proceedings are certainly meant as tongue-in-cheek, it’s quite possible for a movie to wink-wink and nudge-nudge itself to death. The “Kingsman” makes endless references to other films and genres, but it’s constantly calling your attention to it. Subtlety is lost here.

Maybe that’s the way it’s meant to be. But it’s hard to shake the feeling that “Kingsman” knows it’s clever and wants to beat you over the head until you get it.

The Herald Journal, Logan, Utah, Friday, February 13, 2015

The Reel Place Aaron Peck

Blood, carnage and CGI-infused ultraviolence only go so far.

“Kingsman: The Secret Service” is the anti-Bond.

The James Bond movies have always been averse to showing any real gruesome violence in order to keep picking up PG-13 ratings.

“Kingsman,” however, has no such illusions.

What’s funny is that “Kingsman” appears on its surface to be a modernized, run-of-the-mill James Bond knockoff, fighting for the same audience – think: “xXx.” Yet, it’s not that at all.

After seeing the trailer you might be surprised to see an R rating accompanying it, but believe me this is one of the hardest R ratings out there.

The Kingsman is a secret organization of super spies within the British government.

They’re all named after Knights of the Roundtable, they sport immaculately tailored bespoke suits, and they supposedly live by their quiet refrain, “Always a gentleman.” Though, the movie quickly throws out the group’s motto, when the bodies start mounting.

Galahad (Colin Firth) is one of the group’s most tenured members.

Seeing Firth in an action movie is disorienting.

Not only that, but Firth is involved in some of the movie’s more insane action set pieces, and with the support of digital wizardry, he looks like an older, British version of John Wick.

Matthew Vaughn’s (“X-Men: First Class”) action scenes mirror the hectic, but fluid motion of Edgar Wright’s fight scenes from “The World’s End.” Instead of

‘Little Women: The Little M

L

ouisa May Alcott’s beloved novel is currently on the Ellen Eccles Theatre stage with Music Theatre West’s production of “Little Women: The Little Musical.”

The show, which opened on Thursday and will continue through Monday evening, promises to bring audiences a story of family, love and hope.

According to Debbie Ditton, the executive director of Music Theatre West and the director of “Little Women: The Little Musical,” the company has been holding the production in reserve for a while until a time when they wanted to build up their monetary reserves. The last time the show was produced was in 2008.

Ditton says that what makes “Little Women” such a great show is its accessibility.

“It deals with everyday problems, such as absentee fathers, your money not being what it was, unrequited love,” Ditton says. “And it’s also about family and community, so when you have trouble, you’re able to take care of each other. I think that is very real.”

Ditton promises a show with an exquisite score, gorgeous costumes and stunning voices. The cast and crew have been working since just after Christmas to put the show together.

“It really takes a village,” Ditton says. “You have to have an army of talent and a dedicated cast.”

Siera Peery, 22, plays the role of Jo, the second oldest sister of the four March daughters. Peery has been doing musical theater for over 10 years, and she is studying to be a vocal teacher under the instruction of Ditton. Peery says she loves the role of Jo and has always wanted to play her.

“Jo is the tomboy. She is carefree and doesn’t care about doing things in the traditional way,” Peery says.

“She loves her sisters and would do anything for them.”

Grace Mickelson, 13, plays the doomed role of Beth.

Mickelson says she wanted to be a part of the production because of the message it carries.

“I think it has an incredible message of hope and community and that was a big draw for me,” Mickelson says.

Mickelson describes Beth as the sweet sister who cares unconditionally for her sisters. She is often very careful of how she treats others, and she is the calm in the storm that is the March family. Mickelson promises that audience members will feel uplifted when they leave the show.

‘Vagina Monologues’ continues at Utah St. through Saturday Utah State University’s Access and Diversity Center coordinates activities for “V-Day USU” in conjunction with the “One Billion Rising for Justice” campaign. The USU activities include a benefit reading of “The Vagina Monologues” at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 12 to 14, in the Taggart Student Center Auditorium.

The readings are a benefit performance with proceeds going to CAPSA. Tickets are $10 and are available at the door or in advance at USU’s Access and Diversity Center’s office, TSC 315.

The USU performance and V-Day campaign are part of “One Billion Rising for Justice.”

According to the national organization, the campaign is “a global call for women survivors of violence, and those who love them, to gather safely in places where they are entitled to justice — courthouses, police stations, government offices, school administration

buildings, work places, sites of environmental injustice, military courts, embassies, places of worship, homes or simply public gathering places where women deserve to feel safe but too often do not — and release their stories through art, dance, marches, ritual, song, spoken word, sit ins and testimonies.”

USU organizers of V-Day USU invite the campus and local communities to “join us as we rise, release and dance to demand justice for women and girl survivors of violence.”

“The Vagina Monologues,” a play

by Eve Ensler, was first performed in 1996. It has been hailed by The New York Times as “funny” and “poignant” and by the Daily News as “intelligent” and “courageous.” It was first performed off-Broadway with Ensler and “dives into the mystery, humor, pain, power, wisdom, outrage and excitement buried in women’s experiences.”

Laura Continued from Page 4 frontier of the late-1800s American Midwest. Many challenges threaten the Ingalls family’s security, including Indian attacks, disease and devastating crop losses. Powered by their devotion to each other and an unwavering “pioneering spirit,” they are able to overcome anything.

The show features a lush musical score with five original songs, among them “Move On,” which captures the restlessness and excitement of loading up the covered wagon to find a new home, and “Fishin’,” a duet in which Laura and Pa laugh and share tall tales at their favorite fishing hole.

Written and directed by ArtsPower Artistic Director Greg Gunning with music by his longtime collaborator Richard DeRosa, “Laura Ingalls Wilder” has been a hit with audiences since its premiere in 1995.

“At ArtsPower, we are committed to enriching

children’s lives through the performing arts,” executive producer Gary Blackman says. “By introducing our audiences to enthusiastic characters like Laura, children can see new possibilities in life and in themselves.”

New art on display at gallery The Logan Fine Art Gallery will feature the debut of Gene Needham’s latest work of art during the CVCA Gallery Walk Friday night.

Entitled “The Transfiguration,” Needham’s sculpture will be on display from 6 to 9 p.m. at 60 W. 100 North. “The Transfiguration” includes six bronze sculptures depicting a moment in the life of Jesus Christ not often remembered.

These six figures reflect the mystery of the Bible and its hope for man’s happiness.

“I consider the Transfiguration to be the most important moment in the New Testament,” Needham says. “At this time, Jesus’s chosen and future first presidency learned of the election and approval of the Son by the Father. In Matthew 17:1-9 and Mark 9:2-9, Jesus brought Peter, James and John to a mount. Moses and Elijah appeared to them. When Peter made a sug-

Thorpe art exhibit continues at USU Artwork by an iconic artist and former Utah State University professor can be seen for a limited time in exhibit at Utah State University.

Utah State’s Department of Art and Design presents “Relational Expressions: The Art of Everett C. Thorpe” Feb. 6 to 28 at the Tippetts Exhibit Hall in the Chase Fine Arts Center on the USU campus.

Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The exhibit is free and open to the public.

Thorpe was a prolific painter with an adaptive style. The selection of works and ephemera is commemorative of his life and highlights the personal and community connections deeply intertwined with Thorpe’s career as both an artist and a professor.

The artist was born in Providence in 1904 and experimented with drawing and painting in childhood and early adolescence until he was able to move to California to take art classes. Thorpe returned to Cache Valley to attend USU and went on to receive his master of fine arts from the University of Utah. His lengthy career as a professor of art began in 1934 at USU, where he continued on until his retirement in 1972.

Books Addario reveals vulnerability in ‘It’s What I Do’

By Jennifer Kay Associated Press

Photojournalists, particularly the ones who repeatedly cover war zones, have a reputation for being tough, fearless, sometimes cavalier and repeatedly lucky in a way that defies logic. So, it’s striking the number of times Lynsey Addario writes in her memoir, “It’s What I Do,” how often she was scared or had had enough of the misery she was assigned to cover.

It’s reassuring to know that Pulitzer Prize winners and people who win MacArthur “genius” grants have moments of vulnerability, too. Her ability to capture that vulnerability in her subjects, often in extreme cir-

cumstances, has propelled Addario to the top of her competitive field.

Addario’s memoir details the physical risks she faces in conflict zones with her colleagues, including local men hired to drive and translate for her. She survived a serious car crash and being kidnapped twice while on assignment; two of her drivers did not.

She also exposes the risks particular to women working in journalism, and arguably not just those who report in the Middle East. Addario gets the shot while enduring casual sexual harassment, the fear of that harassment escalating to assault and the horror of that assault when it happens. She also writes about fighting off the fear of being perceived as weak if she points out the harassment to her male colleagues, who are oblivious to what’s happening to her as they compare images, because this sort of thing never happens to them.

Addario writes most, though, about the other side of war: attending the funerals of friends and colleagues, the fights with editors over images that make faraway read-

‘SpongeBob’ takes out ‘Sniper’ NEW YORK (AP) — “The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water” finally unseated Clint Eastwood’s runaway hit “American Sniper” at the weekend box office, while a pair of high-priced fantasies flopped.

Paramount Pictures’ “SpongeBob Movie” earned $56 million in North America, a huge debut for the animated Nickelodeon big-screen transfer, according to estimates Sunday. That finally pushed “American Sniper” off the top spot after a three-week reign. The Navy SEAL drama took in $24.2 million in its fourth week of wide release.

The Wachowskis’ lavish sciencefiction adventure “Jupiter Ascending” opened with just $19 million, a meager amount for a $175 million production.

Universal’s “Seventh Son,” a supernatural thriller set in medieval times, debuted with a scant $7.1 million. The film, produced by Legendary Pictures

and starring Jeff Bridges, cost nearly $100 million to make.

That gave the box office a couple of lucrative hits and a pair of costly misses to lead the early February weekend.

The success of “The SpongeBob Movie,” the second SpongeBob film following 2004’s “The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie,” proved the continuing appeal of the 16-year-old Nickelodeon character. The colorful, beach-set cartoon about the relentlessly chipper SpongeBob also capitalized on a marketplace hungry for family films.

“This movie played a little bit older than we initially thought it would,” said Megan Colligan, president of worldwide distribution and marketing for Paramount. “It’s a real tribute to Nickelodeon and the strength of the brand and how well they manage the brand. It’s a beloved character that teenagers love from their childhood.”

ers uncomfortable and the strained relationships with people who don’t work on deadline. The stakes were just as high in her personal life, and she suffered from a serious fear of missing out as her friends and sisters hit all the milestones that “responsible grown-ups” are supposed to hit.

“It’s What I Do” chronicles Addario’s shift from focusing on the latest big story to more personal projects that explore the intricacies of working in foreign cultures and making them relatable to readers elsewhere. She spends less time talking about the images she made of Taliban men than about the hospitality they showed her, their cultural rituals of tea and their pride in their children.

Fifty Continued from Page 3 real reason why Anastasia is even considering his proposal is that she’s at least somewhat blinded by all the dollar signs?

While there is some subtext to chew on, it’s scant. For the most part “Fifty Shades of Grey” feels like an awkward mesh of late-night Cinemax soft-core, and a bad Lifetime movie.

Some of the dialogue is gruelingly awful. Since much of the audience already knows the context from the book, lines from Christian like, “I enjoy various physical pursuits,” elicit laughter from fans and non-fans alike.

Dornan is categorically terrible in his role as wealthy sadist Christian Grey. While Dakota Johnson acts circles around him, Dornan is wooden.

ing. She mentions more than once looking her subjects in the eye and finding a way to communicate — in other words, she’s looking for humanity before she picks up her camera.

He delivers his lines with apathy. We can assume that Anastasia certainly isn’t attracted by his charm because he’s devoid of it.

Yes, the movie is sexually explicit.

It even prompted the MPAA to issue the movie an R rating based on, among other things, “unusual behavior.” But if you’ve already read the book, you’ll know what you’re in for in terms of skin and sex. That said, the sex scenes are shot from convenient angles as not to reveal too much. They’re also usually accompanied by strangely upbeat music choices, which seem to be strategically selected to lighten the mood, so it doesn’t make everything we’re seeing seem so sadistic.

I feel bad for Johnson, though.

She’s obviously much too talented to be surrounded by the rest of this film. I’m not saying she shouldn’t have done the movie, but she’s so far above everyone else that she unintentionally highlights how bad the rest is.

“Oh! My Darling”

By Iris Nielsen

By Ba Chau

Seven sister traverse the winter sky Caught forever in Orion’s eye An eternal quest in the name of love The hunter gives chase in the heavens above

Pleiades sisters of seven endlessly bound By a merciless deity afraid of their sound Pursued by the Hunter whose distance is nigh Endpoint of eternity of the Sapphire sky

I gazed up at the midnight at sky Search my soul with questions of why Observing at the stars and the universe above Marveled at the endlessness of Orion’s love

Oh! Darling, you are so pretty tonight, The moon sees you, the moon is shy, She is jealous of your fair sight, And just appears one half in the sky, I have that half moon to be a canoe, Chopping a sentence of poem into two, Casting them into a pair of oars,

Rowing you to the galaxy watching stars, They are bright and blinking so nice, And twinkling inside your beautiful eyes, I gather them to weave a diamond carpet, Let you walk to the gorgeous comet, Your figure is always royal in my heart, And my love to you like countless stars.
