7 Three stars: ‘Trainwreck’
Just a heads up. If you’re looking for something different to entertain yourself this upcoming Pioneer Day, you might want to head out to the west side. Mendon, which always has a great Pioneer Day celebration, will host two showings of “The Wellsville Kid” at 5:30 and 7:45 p.m. on Friday, July 24. A fundraising event for the new Mendon Library, the special screening at the Mendon Station will allow people the rare opportunity to see a movie made in 1972 that takes a

light-hearted look at the rivalry between Wellsville and Mendon — something I have to admit I didn’t previously realize existed, since I’ve never lived in the shadow of the Wellsville Mountain Range. A black-and-white, silent movie shot on 16 mm film, “The Wellsville Kid” tells the story of a young troublemaker from Wellsville who stirs things up in Mendon. Produced by longtime Mendon resident Richard Watkins, the film was recently remastered and DVD copies will be available for purchase at the screenings. Rumor has it the movie is hilarious — at least if you’re not from Wellsville, I assume — and the idea of seeing a movie
shot more than 40 years ago to resemble a silent film from the early 1900s is darn intriguing. The screening of “The Wellsville Kid” will be held in conjuction with the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Mendon Library. Tickets can be purchased by calling Katie Child at 7646610, or by leaving a message at wellsvillekid@gmail.com. Advance ticket prices are $5 for adults, $3 for children under 12. Tickets at the door will be $7 and $5, respectively. In addition to the Pioneer Day showings, the film will also be presented at 6, 7 and 8 p.m. Saturday, July 25. — Jeff Hunter
Rudd’s charm is ‘perfect’ in latest movie from Marvel
– Duncan Clark, president of Univeral’s distribution, on last week’s box-office champ, ‘Minions’ (Page 6)
By Aaron Peck Cache movie critic
As Marvel barrels ahead with their phases — each one increasing in gravitas around the nebulous threat of Infinity Stones and Thanos — it’s a relief to have something like “Ant-Man.” Having much more in common with the silliness of “Guardians of the Galaxy,” “Ant-Man” attempts to spin an origin tale and weave it seamlessly into Marvel’s unruly connective narrative tissue, all the while raising up a humble would-be Avenger who isn’t so serious all the time. A light-hearted hero whose humor will perfectly counterbalance Tony Stark’s self-satisfied smugness. The nuts and bolts of “Ant-Man” are admittedly familiar. The good-guy-badguy dynamic is reminiscent of the military industrial complex interim CEO run amok with fever dreams of power and billions from the first “Iron Man.” So, it really isn’t the story that “AntMan” is telling that’s so great, but the way it tells it. As a small-scale standalone origin story, “AntMan” pulls off some complex world building. It ties earlier Marvel movies together with later ones. It manages to exist in a world

where the Avengers are real, and in turn provide clever lines of reasoning why they shouldn’t be involved in this fight. The self-awareness here smacks of Edgar Wright’s wry humor and his ability to poke fun at perceived tropes in a given genre. Wright left the pro-
duction early on, citing creative differences. However, he’s still awarded story and screenplay credits. While he wasn’t able to stick around to the end, Wright’s influence is still felt quite extensively here. Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) is a … well, it’s not quite
clear. That is, perhaps, the only knock on the movie. Lang, who eventually becomes the new Ant-Man taking over for Dr. Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), has a murky backstory. We’re never quite sure if he’s an expert cat burglar who just happened to get caught, or if he’s an everyman hero who got caught sticking it to those fat cats on Wall Street. There are some Robin Hood-esque seeds sown there to give Scott a hero of the people feel, but it’s never fully developed. See HUGE on Page 12

all mixed up Lyric Repertory Company season rolls on
The Lyric Repertory Company at Utah State University brings four hot shows to one cool place this summer. “The Lyric has been a big part of the community since 1967,” says Dennis Hassan, co-artistic director of the Lyric Rep. “This season we have a great cast from across the country, including interns and apprentices.” Opening this year’s season is “Noises Off,” a comedy by Michael Frayn. In this play within a play, a The Lyric Repertory Company presents “The manic menagerie of traveling actors Mystery of Edwin Drood” through Aug. 1. rehearses a flop called “Nothing’s
On.” Personal problems from divorces and illicit love affairs to missing contact lenses distract the actors. Doors slamming, on and offstage plotting and misbehaving sardines all figure in the plot of the hilarious and classically witty play, Hassan says. The funny farce plays June 11-13 and 20, July 8, 11, 14, 18, 24 and 30. “Noises Off” is rated intermediate for mild adult themes. Arlene Hutton’s “Last Train to Nibroc” opened June 17. In December 1940, an eastbound
cross-country train is carrying the bodies of American writers Nathanael West and F. Scott Fitzgerald. Also on board is religious and bookish May, and charming, young flyer, Raleigh, who is heading to New York to be a writer. The two discover they are from neighboring towns and Raleigh decides to take May to the Nibroc Festival in Kentucky. Through distance and heartache, May and Raleigh find a spark that carries on through See SEASON on Page 13

‘Minions’ dominate latest box office list LOS ANGELES (AP) — Universal’s “Minions” overran the box office over the weekend as audiences in the U.S. and Canada shelled out an estimated $115.2 million to see the evil-master-serving horde frolic on the big screen. It was the secondbiggest opening ever for an animated film and an easy win for the sidekicks who took the spotlight after playing supporting roles in two previous “Despicable Me” movies. The bright, babbling baldies have become key characters in the franchise from
Universal’s Illumination Entertainment. Directed by Peter Coffin, who co-directed both “Despicable Me” movies and voices the Minions, the movie easily beat “Jurassic World,” another Universal picture that grossed $18.1 million in its fifth weekend after release, according to box office tracker Rentrak. Disney’s “Inside Out” ranked third with $17.1 million in its fourth weekend. “Minions” was a hit overseas as well, taking the No. 1 spot in 29 of the 30 other countries in which it debuted over

Amy Schumer takes on Hollywood Comedian stars in ‘Trainwreck’ with Bill Hader NEW YORK (AP) — A recurring feeling has accompanied Amy Schumer’s rapid ascent in show business. “It’s always: I walk in a room thinking maybe I belong in here,” she says over a plate of meatballs at a Greenwich Village cafe. “And then I get reminded quickly that I don’t. But then no one really does. And I’m going to do it again.” It’s getting hard to find a room too big or too prestigious for the 34-year-old Schumer. In her rise to becoming one of the preeminent stand-ups in the country, Schumer has emerged as one of the sharpest, wittiest commentators on gender in America. Her humor — satirical, raunchy, absurdist — is built on a fresh and on-point feminism, alert to both the injustices of sexism and the helpless farce of the sexes. She’s turned her Peabodywinning Comedy Central show, “Inside Amy Schumer,” into a spinning collider of gender roles,

firing out weekly, instantly viral parodies of men and women, in bed and on screens. In “Trainwreck,” a comedy she wrote and stars in due out Friday, Schumer wades into movies for the first time. Her
arrival in Hollywood, like many of her punchlines, is well timed. Her voice feels particularly valuable to a movie industry wrestling with gender equality. It’s a conversation Schumer
has already joined, most notably in a sketch about the expiration date of sexual attractiveness for women in Hollywood. In it, Tina Fey and Patricia Arquette toasted Julia LouisDreyfus’ final day.
Schumer’s introduction to the superficiality of Hollywood, she reckons, has already given her 20 minutes of new material. The jokes have included her expectation a more attractive actress, “a Kate” (like Kate Upton or Kate Middleton), would be cast in her place, and her insistence that her Los Angeles experience has proven she’ll never be a movie star. “Definitely not,” she confirmed in a recent interview. “I’m not doing it. I don’t like anything that comes along with it. I don’t like it so much that I don’t know if I would ever do it again. I left the press junket like, ‘Stand-up’s cool.’” Yet “Trainwreck,” directed by Judd Apatow, has already won glowing reviews for its crude humor and sweet authenticity. It flips the usual conventions of a romantic comedy. Schumer plays a serial dater and the men (Bill Hader, flanked by his protective friend, LeBron James) are the ones yearning for a second date. It wasn’t a conscious inversion, she says, but is simply See AMY on Page 12

That is until Amy meets Aaron (Bill Hader), a sports-injury doctor who happens to be buddybuddy with LeBron James. Why LeBron has a best friend living in New York City and seems to spend
enough time there to hang out and have breakfast is anyone’s guess (also, who knew LeBron had comedic chops?). Amy’s been assigned to do a story on Aaron and his athlete connections. She hates sports. Her magazine’s editorin-chief (Tilda Swinton) thinks that’s great. Apatow lets each scene develop, no doubt giving Schumer and Hader free rein to improvise lines, insults and sexually sug-

gestive banter. It’s a wise move. The movie begins as a raunchy, debauched girl-power anthem and slowly morphs into a believable, emotionally-driven romance between two people who simply like each other. The key here is that nothing is ever treated as trite. Even when the movie rattles off some of the familiar elements we expect from rom-coms, they don’t seem as egregious. They feel real. If a trope threatens to arise, it’s spun just enough to make it sorta new, working wonders on the overall effect. Schumer carries it though. Her comedic timing, her impressive physical comedy and her spot-on facial expressions give the movie more genuinely funny moments than not. Yes, it moves at Apatow’s signature slow pace and predictably ends at a new beginning. It might even be perceived as a little too long. Nevertheless, it’s worth it. Schumer’s worth it.

“Trainwreck” certainly has that lackadaisical, Judd Apatow aesthetic about it. But Apatow — who finds himself directing his funniest movie since “Knocked Up” — isn’t the main reason why “Trainwreck” works so well. It has everything to do with the writing and acting of one-ofa-kind comedian Amy Schumer. Schumer’s character is named Amy. You wonder how much the character mirrors her real-life persona. You hope not too much, but it’s hard to tell. Anyway, Amy is a broken woman with daddy issues who is unfortunately surrounded by well-meaning, positive influences. Well, maybe that doesn’t sound bad to everyone else, but to Amy it’s hell. Steering away from a straight rom-com formula (it still does contain the basic ingredients, they’re just mixed differently), Schumer and Apatow go for a let-itplay-out vibe. There’s always been this feeling with Apatow movies that we’re just observing. Like life, some parts are hilarious, others emotional and still others are seemingly boring or pointless. Schumer wields her cutting wit and harsh observational humor without restraint. Perhaps that’s what makes “Trainwreck” so funny at times. It may, during a few moments, feel like her stand-up routine being acted out for a movie. Though, there are other moments, like her interactions with her strange step-nephew, which are instantly memorable. Amy works at a men’s

ER: ‘TALK OF THE TOWN’ Preston band continues to exercise their right to rock
M
usicians in the local rock band Veiger have only been jamming together for seven or so months, but they have already made their presence felt in Northern Utah and Southeastern Idaho. The band recently released its first album, “Play Loud and Party Hard,” and has performed around two dozen shows. Most of those concerts have been held at local bars and clubs, but Veiger did open for well-known rock band Puddle of Mudd on May 1 at the Sky Lounge in Salt Lake City. All four of Veiger’s musicians grew up in Preston, and, although the four of them have only been together for a short time, the group dynamics are strong. That’s because frontman/guitarist Austin Veibell and drummer Eric Auger have been performing together in other bands for 12-13 years — since they were in high school. Meanwhile, bassist AJ Haslam and lead guitarist Trevor Larsen had teamed up for several years before Veiger was formed. The name Veiger is derived from the last names of Veibell and Auger. “I think we all are just so musically inclined that we just know what to do, and we just mesh really well that way,” Auger said. “Me and Austin have been playing together for a lot of years, and so have Trevor and AJ ... so they’re really comfortable together and me and Austin are really comfortable with each other.” Auger, 29, and Veibell actually took the stage against Haslam in battle of the band competitions while all three attended Preston High School. Auger was also aware of Larsen’s musical gifts as a teenager. “In high school, Trevor was the talk of the town because of how well he could play (the electric guitar),” said Auger, who
has been a drummer the last 14 years but played guitar in high school. “He can play any cover song you want. You just name it and he can play it. So, I always knew about Trevor, but I never had jammed with him until AJ brought him over with him.” Larsen, 32, still has a vivid recollection of the first time he meet up with Veibell and Auger. “It’s just one of those crazy things where Eric put out a random message on Facebook about two years ago looking for some people to jam with, and I went over there one night and it was just me and him … but it was just magical,” said Larsen, who has also “dabbled” in drums and acoustic guitar. “And he called Austin and he’s like, ‘Hey, I’ve got this guitar player over here, and get over here.’ He came over and about three or four songs in, it was just kind of a feeling of euphoria, like, ‘Holy cow, this is awesome.’ “... It was just easy. The way Austin played coincided with the way I play. Eric’s drums were like music I’ve drummed to since I was 15 or 16 years old, and it was like we’ve been playing together for years. ... And it’s been that way ever since.” Veiger, which will perform Saturday from 9 p.m. to midnight at the Eagles Lodge in Logan, has the feel of an ’80s, early ’90s American hard rock band. However, the band also incorporates elements of country, classic rock and alternative into its music, plus has a strong acoustic feel at times. “We try to focus on originals, but we do play a lot of cover songs,” Auger said. “When we go into bars, usually we do a 30-song bar set, and so we See TOWN on Page 13

The Utah Festival Opera & Musical Theatre’s crowdpleasing season opener clearly illustrates why “La Bohème” is one of the most popular operas worldwide. In terms of plot, “La Bohème” is pretty bare bones. Boy meets girl in the slums of Paris in the 1830s; boy loses girl; boy gets girl back; girl dies of consumption. Très romantique, n’est-ce pas? But director Daniel Helfgot’s production deftly highlights not just the opera’s tragedy but also its charm
and soprano Catherine Spitzer blend beautifully as the doomed lovers Rodolfo and Mimi, especially in their duet “O soave fanciulla” and the quartet “Addio dolce svegliare alla mattina” that closes the opera’s third act. The lovely Jamilyn Manning-White lights up the stage as the tempestuous Musetta, who seems intent on single-handedly starting the feminist revolution 150 years and humor with the help too early. Her exquisite of a gifted cast of vocalperformance of the aria ists and composer Giaco- “Quando me’n vo” (betmo Puccini’s thoroughly ter known as “Musetta wonderful music.

the artist Marcello, winningly portrayed by baritone Gregory Gerbrandt. His on-again, off-again romance with Musetta is the opera’s most enjoyable sub-plot. Antoine Hodge and Quentin Oliver Lee deliver rich vocals and hilarious comedy relief as the philosopher Colline and the parrotkilling musician Schaunard. UFOMT veteran Kevin Nakatani is also back, double-cast in the character roles of an easily cheated landlord and a cuckolded plutocrat. As always, Nakatani is superb. Although UFOMT
has been strategically retreating from grand opera in recent years, this intimate classic still features sizable adult and children’s choral ensembles that provide a rousing rendition of “Aranci, datteri! Caldi i marroni!” in the opera’s second act. Under the direction of conductor Barbara Day Turner, the UFOMT orchestra is brilliant as usual. Additional evening performances of “La Bohème” are slated at the Ellen Eccles Theatre on July 23 and Aug. 1 and 7. Matinees will be offered on July 17 and 25. The Utah Festival
Opera & Musical Theatre is also offering “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying,” “Man of La Mancha” and “Carousel” this season.

Veibell, who wrote the lion’s share of the lyrics from the band’s album, showed his penchant for music when he and his sister Chelsea made a demo called “Diversity” when he was in the eighth grade. Tracks from “Play Loud and Party Hard” can be found at soundcloud.com. Additionally, Veiger’s music is currently available on iTunes, and, according to the band’s Facebook page, will shortly be available on Amazon MP3 and Google Play Music. Larsen is confident a lot of people can personally relate to Veiger’s lyrics. “I hope people can come away from listening to our music feeling better about themselves, feeling better about their day,” Larsen said. “We have a lot of songs on (our album) that just speak to a lot of people in a lot of different things. And I just hope people can turn on a song like “Simple Company” or “Denver (For the Weekend)” and just relax and forget about all the bad things, and just have a good time for five minutes.” As far as the future of the band is concerned, Larsen is hopeful Veiger will stay together for a long time and continue to enlarge its fan base.

Huge Continued from Page 3 Rudd’s sardonic charm is perfect. Heck, he’s perfect. Everything from his facial expressions to his awkward insights work. He’s a wonderful casting choice and anyone apprehensive about it, fear not. Yes there’s another dastardly plot to destroy the world. Well, like most grand ideas in the Marvel universe the thing that’s going to lay waste to life as we know it was first created to help humanity. Darren Cross (Corey Stoll) — the Obadiah Stane power-hungry capitalist character; he even sports a well-polished bald head — used to be Dr. Pym’s protégé. Cross has now taken over at Pym Tech and is in the process of creating mini super-soldier suits. He’s spent years trying to perfect the shrinking technology that his mentor Pym
has kept secret all these years. We know Cross is a terrible dude because the man uses cute white lambs for his live animal experiments. See, he hasn’t really gotten to the point where he can shrink organic matter. Instead, tiny pink blobs of goo. What “Ant-Man” does extremely well is the action sequences. Shrinking a hero down provides an entirely new landscape for him to explore, fight in and interact with. The climactic battle scene might just be one of the — if not the — best action sequence Marvel has ever put together. The craft and originality that goes into some of these small-scale epic battles between AntMan and Yellowjacket is astounding. As our heroes constantly find themselves barreling through cities full of people, Ant-Man makes the destruction tiny. Yet, the tiniest scenes usually pack the biggest punch.

One of her most famous sketches, a full-episode version of “12 Angry Men” in which jurors weigh whether Schumer is hot enough for TV, also came from a blogger’s comments. “I’m trying to do my part, just so people can feel comfortable in their own skin,” she says. “I don’t think we should throw out all the hot people. But people are actually OK with looking at people other than models. They actually kind of like it.” That underlying message of self-acceptance has made Schumer a kind of comic everywoman candidly baring
N. Logan to present pageant ‘Pioneers & Patriots’ set for Pioneer Day evening Once a year, the state of Utah goes all out to celebrate the arrival of pioneers into the Salt Lake Valley on July 24, 1847. Parades, fireworks and other festivities designed to help commemorate the event are held throughout the state, and in North Logan City celebrations start early with breakfast, a parade and a variety of activities. Festivities continue throughout the day with something new added this year; “Pioneers and Patriots” is a grand outdoor pageant. The public is welcome. “This is a family event and we

Schumer has given moving, personal speeches (“I say if I’m beautiful. I say if I’m strong,” at the Gloria Awards) and hysterically unapologetic ones. “I am really in it to talk to the women in the crowd, if I’m being totally honest,” she says. “But what I’ve found is that the men want to hear it, too. They’re interested, and they want to empower the women in their lives. And women are just as much to blame as men for why we’re not able to understand each other.”

Ahead of “Minions,” Universal showed a trailer from a release for next summer, “The Secret Life of Pets,” which explores what pets do when their owners leave them at home unattended.

they’re very charming. You think of Gru (the villain from ‘Despicable Me’) — even a villain has a huge heart. I think we’re seeing the results of that in the ‘Minions’ right now,” he said. Other movies debuting in the Top 10 this past weekend were “The Gallows,” an ad-libbed highschool horror movie from Blumhouse Productions, the creator of the “Paranormal Activity” and “Insidious” franchises, and “Self/ less,” a sci-fi thriller about a neardeath billionaire who transmits himself into a younger body.
who will spend a day shooting and then rush to perform a set or two at night. Klein said the writers’ room (where Schumer’s sister, Kim, also works) is humming with a sense of limitless material rife for parody. “I don’t think a lot of shows have tackled these issues yet in a way that’s funny and real,” says Stein. “Amy, obviously, is a really distinctive voice, and it feels like we’re talking about stuff that people haven’t really talked about so far, and that hopefully they will now.” More attention also means more scrutiny. A recent column in the Guardian, citing a sketch from the show’s first season, claimed Schumer has a “blind spot around race.” Schumer posted online that the sketch had been misinterpreted and that she wouldn’t start jok-
ing about “safe material” — a response she now regrets. “I talked to Louie (C.K.) and Lena (Dunham) and Chris Rock and they were like, ‘Yeah, you can’t respond,’” said Schumer. But the resulting headlines crystalized the new challenges coming for Schumer. “The pressure is that there are more eyes on me,” says Schumer, a cousin of New York Senator Chuck Schumer. “It is strange to be treated like a politician all of a sudden.” But as Schumer finds herself increasingly on the inside of Hollywood glitz or partying at the Emmys, she’s also recoiling — back to New York, back to the stage. “I’m glad I don’t feel comfortable there,” she says of award shows. “I don’t want to become a part of that.”
