CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE NIAGARA RIVER ECOSYSTEM BY SARA JERVING

RESEARCHERS ARE CONCERNED THAT CLIMATE CHANGE COULD BE HELPING TO LAY THE GROUNDWORK FOR AN EVENTUAL COLLAPSE OF THE NIAGARA RIVER’S ECOSYSTEM. POPULATIONS OF THE emerald shiner, a minnow that serves as the foundation of the Niagara River’s food chain, have been cut drastically this summer. Researchers worry that as the region heats up, this could become the new norm.

The emerald shiner is the primary source of food for many of the larger sporting fish in the Niagara River, such as bass, trout, and walleye. Birds also feast on both the minnows and the larger fish that eat them. Because of the important role it plays in the river’s ecosystem, a long-term decrease in the minnow’s population could have ripple effects. As part of one of the most comprehensive studies to date on the emerald shiner in the river, a team of researchers at SUNY Buffalo State College have been studying both the population size and health of the minnows. 4

THE PUBLIC / SEPTEMBER 12 - 18, 2018 / DAILYPUBLIC.COM

The researchers found that the populations have decreased by about 90 percent since 2014, which is when they started collecting data. They also found that many of the fish have health problems, including liquefied livers and gills ridden with parasites. While the researchers aren’t able to pin down the causes of the reduction in the population or health problems, they believe that a series of factors could be playing a role, including temperature change. Officials from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation said they are not concerned about the decrease, because the emerald shiner’s population can fluctuate wildly from year to year. The agency believes the current drop-off has more to do with high populations of predator fish, like the walleye and yellow perch. But the Buffalo State scientists think there could be more to it. The emerald shiner has survived in this region based on a certain temperature range that suits their bodies. But regional waters are heating up with climate change. At higher temperatures, the fish become stressed and are more susceptible to disease and parasite infections. “The emerald shiner is the base of the food web,” said Alicia Pérez-Fuentetaja, principal investigator of the Emerald Shiner Project and professor of aquatic ecology at Buffalo State. “If they are not here, everything else collapses. Either [other species] don’t reproduce or they

THREATS TO THE MINNOW

difficult for the minnow to swim back to Lake Erie in the winter, leading it to stay in the river, which could lead to higher death rates.

Buffalo State researchers have collected samples of emerald shiner at several locations throughout the Niagara River since 2014. When the project began, the scientists would scoop up hundreds of fish at each collection site. Now, it’s more likely that they won’t scoop up any at all.

While temperature alone might not cause a reduction in the populations of the minnows, when coupled with these other stress factors, it works to reduce the odds of their survival, said Randal Snyder, co-principal investigator of the Emerald Shiner Project and biology professor at Buffalo State.

They have data indexing the population size from 2014, 2015, and this year. They’ve seen the population reduce by about half each year. The research is funded by the Niagara Greenway Ecological Standing Committee and the US Army Corps of Engineers.

“There are multiple stressors. It could be temperatures the fish aren’t used, pollutants in the water, not getting enough of the right kind of food, trying to fight strong currents that they are not used to,” he said. “All of these things combine to weaken the fish.”

While present temperatures might not pose a risk, a series of factors threaten the minnow, including the continued warming of the river, pollution and the urbanization of the riverfront.

Buffalo State is working with the US Army Corps of Engineers and the University at Buffalo to develop fish passageways on the side of the river, aimed at helping to slow down the river’s current.

move elsewhere where they can find other food.”

The emerald shiner is a cold-blooded creature that regulates its body temperatures by migrating to Lake Erie in the winter, which is warmer than the river at that time of year, and returning to the Niagara River and its tributaries in the spring, which becomes warmer than the lake. In the river, the fish can grow and reproduce. According to the Buffalo State study, the emerald shiner become weak when the water hits 77 degrees or higher. This could make them less able to fight off health problems like parasites in their gills and guts, liquefied livers, and fungal infections throughout their bodies, reducing their chances of survival. Over the past three decades, the average temperature of the water in July, measured at the mouth of the Niagara River, has risen by about two degrees Fahrenheit, according to data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The river’s daily average temperature this summer peaked at 76 degrees in August and stayed at that temperature for several days in a row. Beyond temperature, the fish are also threatened by pollution in the river and the urban modification of the riverfront. Because much of the shoreline along the river has been replaced by seawalls, the current has become stronger along the edges of the river. This makes it

THE MINNOW’S ROLE The emerald shiner is the primary source of food for many of the sporting fish in the Niagara River—like smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, steelhead trout, and walleye. The minnow is estimated to make up about 90 percent of the diet of the walleye in the river. If the minnow population is at low levels for too long, there could be a decrease in both the number and physical size of sporting fish in the river, said Snyder. There are other species of minnow, such as the spottail shiner, which the sport fish could eat instead. But that would only be a temporary fix because these minnows occur in smaller numbers in the river than the emerald shiner, said Pérez-Fuentetaja. “It could, for a few years, supplement the diet,” she said. “But eventually, if the emerald shiners are not in large enough numbers, the bass won’t be in large numbers.” The emerald shiner is also one of the most popular bait fishes in New York.

But right now, you won’t find the minnow on its shelves. “They’ve been super hard this year to come by,” said Anthony Scime, owner of the shop. “You could usually go and grab an entire net full in one shot and fill up a couple buckets really quick. But it hasn’t happened that way once at all this year.” As an alternative, Scime is selling pond-raised golden shiner, another species of minnow, imported from Arkansas. While he makes a profit from selling emerald shiners, because he can catch them himself, he just about breaks even when he sells the imported minnows because of added overhead costs. The fisherman also prefer the native species, he said. Beyond fish, the Niagara River corridor has also been globally recognized as an enclave of bird biodiversity, which includes migratory stopovers of birds on their way to the Arctic. Many of the bird populations eat both the minnows and the larger fish that depend on them. A decrease in the population could disrupt the flow of birds to the area.

“This is not uncommon for small prey fish species that generally do not live beyond three years,” said a department spokesperson. The agency’s data shows year-to-year declines of more than 80 to 90 percent at five different times in the past 26 years.

ART REVIEW his try at an epic poem, The Song of Hiawatha. Plus in addition to the aqueous and terrestrial components of the epic, including—in the invariable tradition of the epics of Homer, Virgil, Dante, even James Joyce—voyage to the underworld, the realm of the dead. With a proper guide. One of the largest and most prominent sculptures represents Thoth, the ancient Egyptian god more or less equivalent to the Greek god Hermes, one of whose chief offices was to escort the souls of the newly deceased to the underworld. (Thoth also had functions related to the newly deceased, but more prominent other functions, such as expertise and jurisdiction regarding science and learning, so letters and numbers, which are principal Indiana motifs.) But most of the sculptures on show—including the Thoth sculpture—have particular reference to Hermes. As versions of a type of sculpture commonplace and ubiquitous in ancient Greece called herms. Which consisted simply of a rectangular cross-section stone column, with a sculptured head—the god Hermes—above, and phallus below. The majority of Indiana’s sculptures are columns, though wood rather than stone, with a fanciful suggestion of a head above, and usually prominent—and more readily identifiable than the head—phallus below.

THE EPIC ROBERT INDIANA BY JACK FORAN YOU KNOW THE minute you step into the huge Robert Indiana show at the Albright-Knox—from the first items you encounter—you’re in for a voyage. American epic voyage even. American odyssey. The first items you encounter are in explicit reference to the great American epic novel, Herman Melville’s Moby Dick. Sculptural works made of mast segments of sailing ships not unlike the Pequod, the vessel Ismael, the narrator, and his bosom companion Queequeg, sign onto as crew for a whaling expedition. One work entitled Call Me Ismael, the iconic opening three words of the novel. Another entitled Ahab, the maniacal ship’s captain, on a personal vengeance mission to find and kill the white whale that previously had dismasted him of a leg. Nearby, three paintings in similar format—large circle motifs and quotations and place names lifted from the first chapter of the novel, the first page, in fact: There is now your insular city, Corlears Hook; City of the Manhattoes, Coenties Slip; and Circumambulate the city; Whitehall. The place names references to locations in lower Manhattan associated with shipping, and where Indiana lived for a time in a relationship with fellow artist and mentor Ellsworth Kelly, and where Melville lived and wrote his early works and the first parts at least of Moby Dick. The homoerotic thematic of Moby Dick would have resonated personally for Indiana, as surely

did the even more blatant homoerotics in the work of another American epic poet and once lower Manhattan resident Indiana makes regular reference to, Walt Whitman. Nearby the Melville works is the Albright-Knox collection painting called Year of Meteors, the title of a Whitman poem composed almost precisely a century before the painting. With quotations from the poem, stencil-lettered on circles within and around a star. “Nor forget I to sing of the Wonder.” And for legitimacy as an American odyssey, not just a water voyage, but terrestrial expedition as well. Particularly for an artist voyager born and raised in the prairie Midwest—the State of Indiana in fact—commemorated in the name he changed his birth name to when he relocated East, and in his artworks in the wagon wheels component of most of the sculptural works, among other agrarian components such as farm tools or tool parts, pitchforks, hay rake tines, etc. And for moral legitimacy, not unmindful of the direst adverse aspect of the trek west component of the American story, the genocide decimation of the American Indian population, commemorated again in the artist’s adopted name, and in several artworks with explicit reference to poet Henry Longfellow and

Except for his best-recognized sculptures—maybe bestrecognized modern art image period, eventually mass-produced alternately as sculptures or two-dimensional works—it started out two-dimensional, as a Christmas card for the Museum of Modern Art that then went viral and everywhere—it became a postage stamp—the famous LOVE piece. The L and O above, resting on the V and E below, the O at an angle. The central atrium room of the 1902 building is given over to multiple sculptural versions of the work, in as many exotic and beautiful marble types, plus one in iron, and two translation variations, one in Latin, AMOR, and one in Hebrew lettering. Indiana ultimately came to despise the LOVE piece—the immense popularity of the piece—for overshadowing his very different more serious work. And refashioning his own image from avantgardist to kitsch sentimentalist. Other works include homage series to artists Marsden Hartley and Charles Demuth, in part based on personal identification with both artists related to sexual orientation, and to Hartley’s art related to his unique amalgam of abstract and representational elements in bold coloristics, and to Demuth related to the precisionist mode and movement Demuth was associated with, and in particular Demuth’s famous painting, I Saw the Figure 5 in Gold, related to Indiana’s signature fascination with numbers. (A large-scale set of his numbers 1 to 9 and zero are currently installed in Wilkeson Point Park, in the Outer Harbor.) The Robert Indiana show continues through September 23. P

[PLANTING] Buffalo soil can be a fickle place for fruit lovers to put down good roots: abundance in one corner’s plum trees, failure in another’s stand of blueberries. A Planting and Maintaining Fruit Trees workshop in the Broadway-Fillmore’s garden belt aims to inform and equip intrepid planters on what to plant, where to plant, and how to maintain quality fruit trees and plants. There will be a combination of lectures and handson activities, with focus on establishing healthy trees requiring minimal maintenance using organic and biological controls. Preregistration is encouraged on the event’s Eventbrite page, but not necessary. -AL

On Saturday, September 15, he’ll perform at the Leopard Lounge in Town Ballroom to support his latest, last year’s Once Upon a Hell of a Time, an album that chronicles an intense breakup, the death of a colleague, and several years of hard living.

[BLUEGRASS] From the edge of Yellowstone National Park comes bluegrass quartet Kitchen Dwellers. The Bozeman, Montanabased folk band delivers a brand of funky, psychedelic bluegrass music they call “Galaxy Grass,” and they’re is touring in support of their second record, Ghost in the Bottle, which features Mihali Savoulidis of Twiddle and more. Light up some of your own Galaxy Grass and head over to Buffalo Iron Works for this one on Thursday, September 13. -CP

7pm Town Ballroom, 681 Main St. $20-$25

[ROCK] First they were in American Bang, then they became the Cadillac Black, now they’re known as the Cadillac Three. This Southern rock trio makes gritty-enough tunes that straddle the lines between modern country and the music of their Allman elders, complete with a dedicated steel guitar player. And there’s definitely something to be said for clever songwriting: Lead vocalist Jaren Johnston is a talented lyricist, and Keith Urban, Tim McGraw, and Jake Owen have all recorded tunes he penned over the years. The Three’s latest, Legacy, features the single “Dang If We Didn’t,” a boozed-up anthem that celebrates the culture of binge drinking in all its Animal House-esque glory. Thing is, Johnston seems stuck in a pattern of metaphors about love and partying with singles like “White Lightning,” “Drunk Like You,” and “Party Like You.” Maybe it’s time to expand the menu, but fans seem content with what the Cadillac Three is currently serving, which brings them to Town Ballroom on Thursday, September 13. Kentucky’s Black Stone Cherry opens the show with a similar vibe. -CJT

A screening of the 1989 romance comedy will be followed by a live conversation regarding the 52-year-old actor’s career and the film that launched it. -TPS

Litz Tribute to Daft Punk 9pm Nietzsche’s, 248 Allen St.

[TRIBUTE] Maryland-based funk band Litz returns to Buffalo for a special tribute to Daft Punk this weekend. The four-piece funk band will deliver one set of Daft Punk covers and one set of originals at Neitzsche’s this Friday, September 14. They’ll be joined by indie rock band Ponder. -CP

[JAZZ] As a longtime member of Elton John's touring band, it seems an odd coincidence that guitarist John Jorgenson would be playing a Buffalo gig in the wake of his former employer, but Jorgenson comes to town on a different sort of errand, playing "gypsy jazz" with his quintet. Jorgenson—who has also toured behind Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Streisand, Seger and numerous others—is considered a gypsy jazz pioneer, and the quintet has been around for 14 years, emulating the sound of Django Reinhardt (who Jorgenson played in Head in the Clouds, 2004, starring Charlize Theron and Penelope Cruz). With Jorgenson on guitar and clarinet, Doug Martin on rhythm guitar, Simon Plating on bass, Jason Anick on violin, and percussionist Rick Reed, the quintet will transport you back in time, creating an otherworldly swing that oozes French sensibility. Odds are, you've never seen anything else quite like it…worth every penny. It's a late afternoon Sunday show, September 16 at Sportsmen's Tavern. -CJT

[TRIBUTE] This Prince show is different than any other Prince tribute you’ll find on the market today. First of all, it happens with a full orchestra; and second, the promoters like to tout that it’s the only “estate approved symphonic presentation of Prince’s music.” The show is also “curated” by drummer, artist, and avid Prince fan Questlove, which means that he picks out what the symphony orchestra plays, from the biggest hits to the deepest cuts.

ELTON JOHN SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 15 8PM / KEY BANK CENTER, 1 SEYMOUR H KNOX III PLZ [POP] “Maybe you’ll get a replacement/There’s plenty like me to be found,” Elton John sings

on the title track to one of his most celebrated works, 1973’s Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. He couldn’t possibly have known how ironic it’d seem some 45 years later as he begins a farewell tour that comes to Buffalo on Saturday, September 15. The fact is that John remains a singular entity among fellow singer-songwriters, and there is no replacing him. Retiring—and really meaning it—seems to be a difficult feat for icons of popular music, but whether that’s about ego or money is debatable (in some cases both, but maybe in others, neither). Like fellow songwriter Paul Simon, however, Elton John seems earnest in his intent to end his tenure as a touring performer so he can nurture his private life (as opposed to Cher, Ozzy, and KISS, for examples,

who have all announced farewell tours and then gone for additional “victory laps”). Granted, the Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour consists of more than 300 shows spread over five continents in three years—in true Elton John over-the-top style, it’s a behemoth undertaking. And Buffalo is really in for a treat since this will be just the fourth performance of the tour, which kicked off on September 8 in Allentown, Pennsylvania. This means that the six-piece band is warmed up and ready to go, any kinks in the production have been ironed out, and John is full of energy. In fact, early reports are that he’s in rare form, cranking out a 24-song show that clocks in at over two-and-a-half hours, rife with extended instrumental passages, warm backup vocal harmonies, and punchy performances from John himself. Additionally, as he promised when he announced the tour back in January, it includes a trove of rare visuals, including never-before-seen photos by photographer Martin Parr from John’s personal collection (during “I Guess That’s Why They Call It the Blues”), and a set of animated characters originally developed for a feature film to coincide with 1975’s Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy that was never produced (during “Someone Saved My Life Tonight”). For “Tiny Dancer,” John is featuring the work of filmmaker Max Weiland, winner of a YouTube competition he spearheaded last year called The Cut, for which aspiring artists were given the chance to conceive and produce official music videos for three of his classic songs. Now 71, Elton John’s achievements as a recording artist are staggering: 38 gold records and 31 platinum and multi-platinum albums, over 50 Top 40 hits, more than 300 million records sold worldwide. After announcing the Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour in January, 450,000 tickets sold right out of the gate during the pre-sale. While it’s clear that other singer-songwriters whose careers took flight in the 1970s have left indelible marks on pop culture (Carole King, James Taylor, Billy Joel), John has surpassed them all in terms of reach and impact. When his voice began to lower in the late 1980s following a very necessary vocal surgery, his popularity didn’t waver. When he came out of the closet, at a time when AIDS-related paranoia had reached a fevered pitch, the world stood by him. And the world is standing by him again, sending him off in style as he makes this exhausting trek to say a proper goodbye. Don’t miss it, Saturday, September 15 at the Key Bank Center. -CHRISTOPHER JOHN TREACY DAILYPUBLIC.COM / SEPTEMBER 12 - 18, 2018 / THE PUBLIC 15

[PUNK] Given their 1995 "hit," "Disconnected," which broke through to some mainstream airplay

thanks to being included on the soundtracks for Tank Girl and National Lampoon’s Senior Trip, Face to Face are often thought of as being early purveyors of punk-pop. But really, that’s not fair. It might seem like splitting hairs to some, but Face to Face is really more about 1990s skater punk (more in the tradition of the Offspring, NOFX, Pennywise, etc.), which could be considered a punk-pop precursor, but retains more of the edgy punch that initially defined the genre. After a hiatus from 2004 to 2008, Face to Face returned to regular touring and have since released three new albums, the most recent being 2016’s Protection on Fat Wreck Chords. There have been lineup changes along the

[METAL] Sludge metal band EYEHATEGOD are now a four-piece. The New Orleans-based band,

which has been making dark, metallic, punk-inspired music since the early 1990s, announced this summer that long-time guitarist Brian Patton was leaving the group. Rather than replace Patton, the band has chosen to move forward as a four-piece rather than a five-piece. The bright spot is that Patton isn’t leaving due to creative difference with the band, who hasn’t released a full length record since their lauded 2014 self-titled record—he’s leaving to spend more time with his family and

FESTIVAL SPOTLIGHT “Some people might think they’re getting half a Hall & Oates show, though that’s not the case—I’ll play ’Maneater,” but I’ll do it the way it was originally written, as a reggae song,” he said in a recent interview. John Oates and the Good Road Band take the stage as headliners on Sunday night.

2. MARGO PRICE Americana singer/songwriter Margo Price will take the stage on Sunday, on one of the festival’s smaller stages, the Split Rail Stage, which will feature both regional and national artists. Price, 35, hails from Nashville, Tennessee and brings a straight-up country sound with her. Her album, All American Made, was deemed by many listmakers to rank among the top country albums of 2017. Whether she’s alone with her acoustic guitar or with a full band, Price delivers live, so don’t miss her set on Sunday.

BORDERLAND MUSIC +ARTS FESTIVAL BY CORY PERLA

AT KNOX STATE PARK, A WEEKEND OF MUSIC, ART, AND GOOD COMPANY

5. THE ARTISAN DEMOS There’s a whole lot to take in here. Borderland will feature about a dozen different artisan demos. Not only can you enjoy some great music at this festival but you can learn to do a whole lot of fun things, from cigar rolling to creating a butterfly garden. There’ll be loom weaving, horseshoeing, and even sheep sheering, too, in case you’re planning on making a move off the grid. Check out dailypublic.com for a full lineup.

3. OTEIL & FRIENDS Oteil is Oteil Burbridge, the Grammy Awardwinning master bassist who currently plays with Dead & Company. He has played with everyone from the Allman Brothers Band to Eric Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, Sheryl Crow, and Trey Anastasio. His friends are his brother, Kofi Burbridge, keyboardist and flutist of blues rock group Tedeschi Trucks Band; psychedelic rock guitarist Scott Metzger; and two more Deadheads, John Kadlecik of Dark Star Orchestra and drummer John Kimock. Needless to say, there’ll be a lot of talent on this stage.

6. THE FOOD The Borderland website claims a “diverse array of locally sourced food options,” and from the looks of things, it sounds like that’s what they’ll deliver. Expect burgers from ABV, rustic dishes from Black Iron Bystro, and pubby stuff from Winfield’s Pub. And probably a whole bunch of food trucks, too.

THERE ARE 633 acres of rolling green farmland that make up Knox Farm State Park—400 acres of grasslands and 100 acres of woodlands and other-lands—and a new music festival will take place on that abundant, beautiful site for two days just as autumn begins.

The festival is called Borderland Music + Arts Festival and it takes place September 22 and 23. It is the brainchild of East Aurora native Jennifer Brazill, who is a founding organizer of WinterWonderGrass, a hugely successful bluegrass/Americana festival with events in Colorado, California, and Vermont. (She has also done stints with Bonaroo and the Dave Matthews Band.) Brazill, who now lives on the West Coast and has spent 20 years in the music industry, has long wished to bring what she does back to her hometown. Earlier this year she saw the possibilities of Knox Farm, recruited a partner in John Cimperman of East Aurora’s 42 North Brewing Company, and set to work soliciting buy-in from New York State Parks and various stakeholders in the village, putting together a team, creating the infrastructure, booking bands, finding artisans, recruiting breweries and restaurants to participate—a mammoth undertaking, all achieved in about eight months. The result is a weekend of outdoor music and art unlike any other in Western New York: It’s not a camping weekend like Blue Heron and its ilk; it’s not an urban festival like Cobblestone Live. Borderland is jam-packed with the kind of folk, psychedelic rock, and soul that offers warmth to counter the slight chill of a crisp fall night. Headliners include the Revivalists, Oteil & Friends, Sam Roberts Band, and John Oates & the Good Road Band. If that’s not quite enough to warm you up, there’ll be a legion of craft brewers set up—10 in total—to dole out some refreshing fall brews. You can also expect a whole schedule of artisan demos—from a live beer brewing demonstration to a spoon carving workshop. So rustic. There’s a lot to see and do at Borderland, so here we’ve compiled a few of our favorite things.

1. JOHN OATES & THE GOOD ROAD BAND Who needs Hall when you have Oates? Half of the iconic R&B/soul/pop duo, John Oates is on a new tip these days—and in fact making the records that he says he always wanted to make. The current recording is a bluesy, Dixielandinspired bluegrass album titled Arkansas, which was released earlier this year. It doesn’t get much more American than that. Though he’s written countless hits with his partner Daryl Hall, don’t expect to hear too much Hall & Oates. And what you do hear might not sound familiar.

4. THE BEER If you’re like me, the first thing you’ll do when you get to this festival is head straight to the lineup of breweries. Personally, I’ll head straight for the Community Beer Works tent to grab a Luscious Pale Ale. Expect a whole lot of beer from 42 North (which is a sponsor of the festival), Big Ditch, Ithaca Beer Comapny, Resurgence, Collective Arts Brewing, and more.

7. THE HOMESPUN STAGE This is where you’ll find most of the local, homegrown talent. Some recommendations: six-piece bluegrass band the Observers on Saturday, Pine Fever on Sunday, and PA Line (twice on Sunday, and the second set will be a Mumford & Sons tribute) to finish off the weekend. It would be a shame to spend all of your time at the main stage and miss some of this great local talent.

FILM REVIEW THERE’S NO POSSIBLE way to segue from a puppy movie

to Wanda, so I won’t try. Barbara Loden’s independent drama about an ungrounded woman (played by herself ) in a dreary coalmining area of Pennsylvania was universally acclaimed by critics when it was first shown in 1970. But it wasn’t audience friendly for the times and disappeared after that first release. Loden died of cancer a few years later without ever making a second film, and Wanda was consigned to the scrapheap of history.

RUFF TIMES PICK OF THE LITTER • WANDA • THE WIFE BY M. FAUST IT SEEMS TO me that you would have to work pretty hard to

make a movie about five puppies, following them from birth for two years as they train to become guide dogs for blind people, and not wind up with an audience pleaser. Whatever possibilities for failure existed, they were avoided by directors Dana Nachman and Don Hardy (Batkid Begins). If there’s a drawback to their new documentary Pick of the Litter, it might be that it makes their craft look too easy to aspiring young filmmakers: Just find an excuse to follow a bunch of puppies around for awhile, and audiences will love it. Dramatic weight is introduced at the beginning when we are informed that of the 800 puppies born annually at the Guide Dogs for the Blind (GDB) breeding facility, only 300 will pass the program to qualify as guide dogs. Unlike other service animals, these dogs are trained not only to follow commands, but to resist them when they would put their person in danger, such as by insisting that you cross the street when a car is coming. Along with the puppies, we spend time with two people who are on the waiting list to receive a guide dog, a widow who lost her sight shortly after the birth of her grandchildren, and a young man who has been blind nearly since birth. Aside from more music than is necessary, Pick of the Litter eschews the schmaltzy, trusting the material to speak for itself. If the local branch of GDB or any similar organization does not have a donation box in the lobby of the North Park Theater, where the movie will run for a week, they will be missing an easy touch.

At least so it seemed until the film was added to the National Film Registry in 2010. A restored version will be shown under the aegis of this publication at the North Park this weekend (Saturday and Sunday at 11:30am). Loden was a successful stage actress—she won a Tony award for her lead in Arthur Miller’s After the Fall—who had trouble making the transition to film. It probably helped keep her memory alive that she was married to director Elia Kazan, whose fans may have expected to see his touch in her film. But while he did offer his support while she was filming, it was to make the film that she wanted, which to both of their credit is not at all like one of his. Both the film and the character resist pat attempts at psychological or sociological analysis, and Loden’s primary instinct for filming seems to have been to strip away anything that smacked of Hollywood artifice. (There’s an unbroken two-minute long shot of Wanda walking across a slag heap that could be from an Abbas Kiarostami film.) The opening credit reads “Directed by Barbara Loden with Nicholas T. Proferes,” and it’s clear that her photographer and editor had a large part in shaping the film, cutting scenes as soon as their meaning was established. It’s not without its rough edges, but it’s well worth seeing, and wondering what might have been had Loden made more films. *** FOLLOWING A RESPECTED American novelist ( Jonathan

Pryce) and his wife (Glenn Close) as they travel to Sweden to collect his Nobel Prize for Literature, The Wife is one of those films that you can’t properly discuss without giving away its ending. But while that reveal is certainly well telegraphed, it’s played for surprise, and to give it away would be an unforgiveable spoiler. I can however say that by structuring the story that way (presumably carried over from Meg Wolitzer’s novel), the film cheats its audience, putting off all the interesting questions about the situation until it’s too late to deal with them. What’s left is an uninvolving movie about characters that, despite the considerable abilities of the two stars, I found it impossible to P care about.

Jonathan Pryce and Glenn Close in The Wife.

FALL FILM EVENTS TO REMEMBER BY M. FAUST SOME MORE SPECIAL and series screenings to look

forward this fall along with the previously covered Buffalo Film Seminars (every Tuesday at the Dipson Amherst Theater), the monthly Thursday Night Terrors, also at the Amherst, and Noir Essentials at the Dipson Eastern Hills. Cultivate Cinema Circle’s ongoing series Women Direct: First Films by Modern Visionary Filmmakers concludes with Desiree Akhavan’s Appropriate Behavior on September 19 and Julie Dash’s Daughters of the Dust on November 8, both at Hallwalls. The third edition of the annual Riverrun Global Film Series focuses on Mexican film and culture The threeday event (October 10-12) will include contemporary and classic Mexican films, music, local speakers, and a keynote address by Mexican film scholar Ignacio Sanchez. All programs will be held at the Burchfield Penney Art Center. Now that Christopher Columbus’s reputation has been downsized but we still have that long weekend in October, fill it up with five days of movies at the 11th edition of the Buffalo International Film Festival (October 4-8). The schedule is still being finalized from among the several million movies that programmer John Fink has seen at festivals like Sundance and SXSW, but among the titles that have been confirmed are Slamdance Grand Jury Prize winner MexMan, The Guardians, When She Runs, Pet Names, Thunder Road, and The Rainbow Experiment. As usual most screenings will be at the North Park, giving you a chance to hang around Hertel Ave. in between movies, with others at Hallwalls and Squeaky Wheel. Also still up in the air are the films to be screened at this year’s Buffalo Dreams Fantastic Film Festival (November 2-8 at the Dipson Eastern Hills). Festival organizers Gregory Lamberson and Chris Scioli’s tastes may center on horror and the fantastic, but that’s a wide field: If you can’t find something at this festival you like, you don’t really like movies. If you want to stick to the tried and true for the month before Halloween, the Screening Room in the Boulevard Mall becomes the Screaming Room with showings of Night of the Living Dead, Carnival of Souls, Nosferatu, the original 1978 Halloween, Greg Lamberson’s Slime City, Brian de Palma’s Phantom of the Paradise, Young Frankenstein, Alice Sweet Alice, Terrifier, Suspiria, The Legend of Boggy Creek, The House on Haunted Hill, Ed Wood’s Plan 9 From Outer Space, and favorite episodes of the cult TV show Kolchak: The Night P Stalker.
