‘BOOK THIEF’ A 4-STAR FILM
If I had just a dollar for every motion picture promoting itself as “one of the best movies of the year,” I would be able to live considerably more comfortably, but, by golly, “The Book Thief,” which claims to be one of those, surprisingly is. This was completely unexpected and a show that really snuck up on me. Looking for a family-friendly film that I could take two grandchildren to see this past Thanksgiving weekend – a 16-year-old girl and a 13-yearold boy – we chose a film most critics are not very excited about, but it sounded like something that wouldn’t expose them to offensive language, sex and violence. While the World War II scenes are intense, it’s nothing most 10-year-olds to middle teens shouldn’t be able to handle, and this is truly a film parents and children in this age range can enjoy and
learn from together. I can only hope, but will not hold my breath, that “The Book Thief ” comes to Hutchinson, but this is such an outstanding family film that it’s worth the trip to the Warren Theatre East in Wichita. Child actors rarely get nominated for best actress, but the performance turned in by Sophie Nelisse as a German girl ripped away from her mother to experience foster care at the hands of a caring father and harsh stepmother is incredible. Her young boy-friend, played by Nico Liersch, further draws on the viewer’s heartstrings, plus a strong performance by Geoffrey Rush and Emily Watson as the German family caring for them, adds both depth and inspiration to the story. The film is set in pre- and early war days in a small German town that is eventually saved by American

bombs, (SPOILER ALERT) leaving three of the main characters dead. What unfolds beforehand is spectacular storytelling, including sharp narration at the opening through ending by the voice of "death,” something that director Brian Percival weaves artfully into an exceptional production. Forget what you may read
from the big-city newspaper reviewers and be prepared, just as the advertising says, for “one of the best movies of the year.” Four stars and a strong recommendation for the film version of a successful 2005 young adult best seller, “The Book Thief.” You won't be disappointed. DAN DEMING Hutchinson

HUTCH HAS A HODGEPODGE OF EVENTS THIS WEEKEND BY KRISTEN RODERICK The Hutchinson News kroderick@hutchnews.com
’Twas the first full weekend in December and all through downtown, all the children were stirring – including the tots. For this is the first weekend that Santa and Mrs. Claus will be seated downtown. They will be in the Downtown Antique District from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., waiting for good boys and girls at the Parkside Building, 112 S. Main St. The jolly man and his wife will take time during their busy holiday season to get Christmas wishes every Saturday. They will be at Memorial Hall, 101 S. Walnut St., on Dec. 14 and at the Hutchinson Recreation Commission, 17 E. First Ave., on Dec. 21. While you’re downtown, don’t miss the Christmas Arts and Crafts Boutique, sponsored by the Hutch Rec, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Memorial Hall. If you’re hungry, help support Hutchinson children and families through the Kansas Children’s Service League’s Red Stocking Breakfast. It’s from 7:30 to 10:30 a.m. Saturday at Carlos O’Kellys, 909 E. 30th Ave. All proceeds help benefit Hutchinsonarea prevention and education programs. Tickets are available at www.kcsl.org.

One option for Saturday night is “The Streets of Bethlehem” at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church, 407 E. 12th Ave. It’s a 20minute walking tour to the time of Jesus’ birth. Along the way, there are shop keepers, merchants, animal traders and the manger. It’s from 6 to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday and from 2 to 5 p.m. Sunday at the church. The tour is free.
Also on Saturday night, the Salthawk Revue will have its second annual benefit concert. Hutchinson High School students and some alumni will take the stage at 7:30 p.m. at the Hutch High auditorium. It’s for a good cause: All proceeds go to the New Beginnings shelter. Tickets are $5 for adults and $3 for students. Get ready for a mix of music: It will range from jazz and reflective to dance, blues and rock. Last year, people were out of their seats by the end of the show. According to the release, get ready for an even better show this year.
If you’re still on the music front, check out the “Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols” at 8 p.m. Sunday at First Presbyterian Church, 201 E. Sherman. It’s led by director Chris Shaw, who teaches vocal music at Hutchinson Middle School-7 and -8. The Adams Street Singers from the middle schools will help out the Reno Choral Society. If you’ve seen the program before, still check it out: The choir will perform new music to bring you into the Christmas spirit.

‘AMERICANA’ MUSICIAN KEEN A BUSY BUT UNTIRING ARTIST BY GARY DEMUTH Special to The Bee
When Robert Earl Keen wants creative inspiration, he retreats to the Scriptorium. The Houston-born singer/songwriter describes the Scriptorium as a little house on a hill he’s had for the past 12 years near his home in Kerrville, Texas. Inside, there are several guitars, a few books and quite a lot of deer sausage, but little else. “There’s a fridge but no other electronic devices, including a phone,” Keen said. “It’s really nice. It keeps me connected with the creative side.” Keen, 57, has earned his right to have a “man cave” to indulge his creative muse. For the past 30 years, he has written hundreds of songs and recorded more than a dozen albums. His songs, which feature elements of country, folk, bluegrass and rock, have been recorded by such diverse artists as George Strait, Joe Ely, Lyle Lovett, the Highwaymen, Nanci Griffith and the Dixie Chicks. Keen has been called an “Americana” artist, which he described as “a wellspring of country and bluegrass.” “Americana songs are an open form, as far as the subject is concerned,” he said. “In country, it’s all about ‘I love you, you love me.’ In Americana, you can talk about what’s on your back porch.” Keen and his band will be in concert Friday at Salina’s Stiefel Theatre, 151 S. Santa Fe. Relishing stories The middle child of a geologist father and an attorney mother, Keen grew up listening to the stories told by his uncle, who he said was “a great storyteller, with a lot of

humor.” “From childhood, stories affected me in a positive way,” he said. Keen attended Texas A&M University, where he taught himself guitar and began hanging around the area’s acoustic folk music scene. While in college, he would have “front porch pickin’ parties” with fellow Aggie Lyle Lovett at Keen’s rental house. Lovett and Keen had such a good time jamming together that they co-wrote “The Front Porch Song,” which each recorded on their debut albums. A move to Austin After moving to Austin, Texas, Keen began performing in local clubs. His selfproduced first album, “No Kinda Dancer,” was released in 1984. His third album, “West Textures,” featured what would become Keen’s signature anthem, “The Road Goes on Forever,” which fellow Texan Joe Ely would record on his 1993 album “Love and Danger,” along with another Keen song, “Whenever Kindness Fails.”
It was the beginning of a fertile creative period during which Keen wrote such classics as “Corpus Christi Bay,” “Gringo Honeymoon,” “Dreadful Selfish Crime” and the popular “Merry Christmas from the Family.” Although Keen has never hit the heights of popularity like his friend Lovett, he said he’s perfectly satisfied being a “cult” favorite. “I never thought of it in terms of getting to be a big star,” he said. “I thought of it in terms of having a really, really good career and writing some good songs, and getting on stage and having a really good time.” Consistent with band Keen performs about 120 to 130 concerts a year, which he said puts him on the road about 200 days a year. He’s been backed by the same band for the past 20 years. “I always believed, since I started in the band business, that people want to see an artist with the same band,” he said. “I believe it’s important to be consistent in that way. I always felt like once you lock into the right bunch
Thankful for fans Keen said he’s grateful that fans, who range from college kids to senior citizens, have been loyal throughout the years. “We find that people love what we do on stage, even if they think they don’t like the music we play,” he said. “Some of these songs just come together when we play, and the way we sing it. You’ve really got to see our live show to get it.” Thirty years into his career, Keen is busier than ever. Earlier this year, he played a handful of sold-out concerts with old pal Lovett, and he’s putting the finishing touches on a bluegrass album he hopes to release soon. Wonderful life But in the meantime, he’s constantly on the road, most recently performing a Christmas show that he plans to bring to the Stiefel Theatre. He said he never gets tired of traveling and performing for crowds of all sizes, whether it be at a club, theater or festival. “It’s a great business and a great lifestyle,” he said. “It’s a thrill to play for people and make everybody happy. Sure, it’s a job, and the travel is hard. But the two hours we’re on stage makes it all worth it.”

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Blake Shelton and Luke Bryan are returning as hosts of next year’s Academy of Country Music Awards. The country music stars teamed up last year and things went so well they’re coming back for the April 6 awards at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. The academy also announced Monday that Florida Georgia Line will host its Fan Jam, the parallel event that runs concurrently with the awards. Bryan and FGL are two of the hottest acts in Nashville at the moment. Bryan won the ACM’s fan-voted entertainer of the year award last April in something of an upset, and Florida Georgia Line was the academy’s new artist of the year. The academy also announced that it will tape its annual television special the day after the awards, to air later in the spring. No word yet on who will perform.

QUALITY OF NOVELS IN GENRE VARIES WIDELY BY DAVINA JAMISON
I have the dystopian malaise. I’m generally the ideal fan for the dystopian novel. I loved “The Hunger Games” and the “Legend” and “Divergent” series. I enjoyed the first two books in the “Matched” series by Ally Condie – I’m sure I’ll get around to book three – as well as “The Debt Collector” serial on Kindle. But the market has become so flooded that it’s difficult to find the quality gems mixed in with the wreckage of an over-saturated genre. And right along with the dystopian influx is the overabundance of books told in the first-person perspective. If done right, both of these methods can still be a big win for authors. Unfortunately, the clutter in bookstores may turn off some readers. I, for one, could use a break. Here’s a look at a few dystopian novels I picked up in the past few months: “Contributor,” by Nicole
Ciacchella This was one of the better dystopian novels I read – based mainly on the fact that I actually finished it. Not exactly high praise. This first book in a new series introduces the idea of a society that is highly motivated to succeed on a career path. If they do, they are greatly rewarded. If they do not, they are ostracized. And if they cannot contribute due to injury or illness, they are disposable. This type of society encourages brilliance – and
also ruthlessness – as young people compete for coveted training spots that will position them for leadership in their fields. There was nothing exactly “wrong” with this book, but there was also no great drama or love interests to keep me really hooked. It felt a little hohum. The similarity it bears to a highly competitive workplace in America is an intriguing commentary on our society, though. “Aberrant,” by Ruth Silver
It’s possible I didn’t give this one a fair shot, but its almost immediate similarities to the premise of the wellknown “Matched” series – in which society matches up spouses – bugged me. Also, the writing wasn’t at all on the same level. Almost immediately, our protagonist is being hauled away, for some unknown offense, and I really didn’t care. That’s when I decided to give it up. “The Elite” (“Selection” series), by Kiera Cass The first book of the “Se-
lection” series drew me in a bit more than the others mentioned here. In this society, families are divided into scores – 3s, 4s, 5s, etc. Girls can marry up, but men who marry someone higher than their rank bring their wives down a notch. Each level determines your profession in life – from servants to artists to the very wealthy. When a contest is held, similar to “The Bachelor,” to select the prince’s wife, America Singer finds herself in the running – despite being in
love with a 6 who is below her station. Though the plot, at least in this first book, seems a little thin, it kept me interested – which is more than a lot of books in the genre do these days. “Delirium,” by Lauren Oliver I’m still working my way through this one. Initially, I was intrigued by the concept: Love as a disease. In this world, the people have a procedure at age 18 that “cures” them of the ailment and ensures a peaceful life. As in other books I’ve read, they are then “matched” with a suitable spouse. There are “invalids” living in the wilds, however, who have never been cured and threaten the stability of their society. As interesting as the premise is, it took me a long time to connect with the main character, and this is one example where the firstperson POV grates on me.

VIRTUAL ‘DIVE’ UNEARTHS RIVETING SELECTION OF NO-COST READS BY DAVINA JAMISON
I love free reads. My pocketbook loves free reads. But the library in my small hometown can’t handle my appetite. That’s where I break out my Kindle and go schlepping through free offers like a virtual Dumpster diver. (No offense meant by the simile, but there are some real pieces of trash next to the treasure, if you know what I mean ...) So, this blog is for you. Bypass the sketchy reads and go straight for the freebie gems. (I hold no liability if their pricing status has changed by the time you read this!) And bear in mind that I am recommending these as good free reads, not for Pulitzer prizes for fiction. There will be fluff – but who can say no to free fluff ? “Brightest Kind of Darkness,” by P.T. Michelle I loved this paranormal romance, the first of a series that is followed up by “Lucid,” also a good read. In this story, Nara is a
teenager with the odd ability/disability of dreaming the next day’s events – exactly. She avoids using her gift to change fate after an ugly incident in her past, but one day she dreams a future she can’t ignore. A mysterious loner named Ethan is the only person who seems on the same wavelength, but as their connection gets stronger, the questions about his past become more pressing. After reading the follow-up “Lucid,” I can tell you that this series only gets more
deep and mysterious as it goes on. “Aurora Sky: Vampire Hunter,” by Nikki Jefford Nikki Jefford is shaping up to be an author I can count on for an entertaining read. “Aurora Sky” is the second series I’ve found by Nikki – she lures me in with a free first book, and before you know it, I’m buying sequels. Luckily, those prices are generally in the $3 neighborhood. If you like vampire stories, you’ll enjoy the twists and turns of the “Aurora Sky” books
(two so far). Nikki’s not afraid to transform her characters through pain, break hearts or shatter dreams. I’m not sure how long this freebie will last. Check out the author’s website – www.nikkijefford.com – to see how to get your copy. “Entangled,” by Nikki Jefford I’m jumping right into the other free offering from Jefford. “Entangled” is the first of the “Spellbound” trilogy about witches. The story is light and keeps you intrigued as Gray dies, then
suddenly finds herself sharing her evil twin’s body. Enlisting the help of a love interest, Gray must find a way to return to Earth permanently before her sister decides to purge her for good. “Delirium,” by Susan Kaye Quinn “Delirium” is the first in the “Debt Collector” serial. Although it’s less definable as YA, it’s close enough, and I cannot say enough good about this one. I love Susan Kaye Quinn. The writing is polished and well-paced, and the story is fascinating.
‘Fast & Furious 7’ to be delayed due to death of actor Paul Walker BY JAKE COYLE AP Film Writer Production on “Fast & Furious 7” is on hold following the death of star Paul Walker. Shooting on the film had been scheduled to resume this week in Atlanta but was canceled WALKER Monday and Tuesday. A spokesman for Universal Pictures declined to say when shooting will resume.
Production on the latest installment of the franchise began in September. While a large portion of the film has been shot, the movie is incomplete. It’s scheduled for release July 11, a date that could be difficult to meet with any lengthy delay. Universal Pictures is expected to go forward with the film, but it has not announced how it will adjust the movie or handle Walker’s unfinished performance. The franchise, which has starred Walker in all but one installment, is particularly lucrative for Universal. “Fast &
Furious 6,” released in May, was the highest grossing film in the series, earning more than $788 million worldwide. The manner of Walker’s death – a fiery car crash in a specialty sports car – was also so reminiscent of the films that made him famous that “Fast & Furious 7” will be under particular scrutiny for how it portrays the fatal risks of street car racing. Police investigators are examining the cause of the crash that killed Walker, 40, and his friend and fellow fast-car enthusiast Roger Rodas on Saturday north of
Los Angeles. The Los Angeles County Sheriff ’s Department has said witnesses described the car “traveling alone at a high rate of speed” before the 2005 Porsche Carrera GT smashed into a light pole and tree, and then exploded in flames. On Monday night, a private memorial for survivors and the cast and crew of the “Fast & Furious” movies was held inside a white tent erected around the crash site in Valencia. When it was over, Walker’s co-star Vin Diesel emerged to thank fans for paying their
respects to the actor. Walker left behind two completed films that will be released. He stars in the upcoming Hurricane Katrina drama “Hours,” which Lionsgate’s Pantelion Films will release Dec. 13 in limited theaters and on video-on-demand, as previously planned. Walker is a producer on the film, something he hadn’t previously done. Walker also stars in “Brick Mansions,” a remake of the French action film “District B13” that Relativity plans to release early next year.
“Debt Colletor” is a gritty, future noir about a society that balances a person’s potential against their debt. It takes you into the world of sex workers, the mob and corrupt officials who snatch life from terminally ill children. It’s deliciously dark! Plus, I got a chance to interview Susan. Check out the interview/review here: http://tinyurl.com/lzt6rsj. I don’t have time to write about all my finds, but here are a few more you should consider: ● “Open Minds,” by Susan Kaye Quinn ● “Glimpse,” by Stacey Wallace Benefiel ● “The Mind Readers,” by Lori Brighton ● “Skid,” by Doug Solter ● “Everblue,” by Brenda Pandos Now go forth and multiply ... your book downloads!
