‘The One Who Loves You’ to play Denver Film Festival
W
By Peter Jones hen Katharyn Grant jumps into the role of wide-eyed singer Gloria Bethune, there is a reason the actress-director is so convincing. “There is an element of me that is like Gloria, but I’m probably more of a cynic,” the Colorado filmmaker said with a smile. “You come from your understanding of a role. You find the place where you connect with the character. It was very cathartic.” In Grant’s new film, The One Who Loves You, Gloria is a green, if well-intentioned, songstress whose emotional vulnerability rivals her talent. When she falls under the spell of a smooth-talking would-be manager named Roy, the audience may want to slap her around and talk some sense into the fledgling singer. “She’s gullible because she wants her dream so much and she’s been so disappointed,” Grant said in an earnest tone reminiscent of her character. “So when somebody believes in her, it means so much to her. For all Roy’s fakery, there is something real there. They do connect. He fakes it from the heart.” Although Grant would hope not to trust her own movie career to the hands of a subpar Svengali, she knows that dreaming comes before the brass ring. “Making a film, you have to have the same dogged determination and naïve faith that it can happen,” she said. “As a young person trying to be an actor, I was

Gloria, but my happy ending is that I made this movie.” The One Who Loves You will have its Colorado premier Nov. 11-12 at the Starz Denver Film Festival at the United Artists at Denver Pavilions. Grant and
other members of the cast and crew will introduce the movie and answer questions. The 95-minute film, a longawaited labor of love, was shot between 2009 and 2012 at locations ranging from south metro
Denver and Arapahoe County near Denver International Airport to Wheat Ridge, Golden and Longmont. Because The One Who Loves You is set in the early 1970s, Grant, who also directed, took the production to the old
Elitch Gardens, the Mayan Theater and the distinctively dated Davies’ Chuck Wagon Diner on West Colfax Avenue, among a host of other aging locations. Adding challenge See upon challenge was Page

Inter-Faith holiday programs need your help Submitted by Inter-Faith Community Services Each year, Inter-Faith Community Services provides two different holiday programs to help our neighbors in need. These programs help bring joy and comfort during a stressful time of year. Without them, hundreds of seniors and families would feel further despair and sink further into poverty. Simply put, IFC S works to stop the unyielding stress and hopelessness of poverty. This work only happens though with your support. Here is how to help. Volunteers help distribute hundreds of food boxes for IFCS Thanksgiving food basket program. IFCS offers two holiday programs: • Thanksgiving baskets program, a complete Thanksgiving meal with extras • A d o p t - A - F a m i l y / S e n i o r
program, holiday gifts/clothing and food Last year, 4,011 individuals benefited from IFCS’s Holiday Programs, including hundreds of children who received gifts from generous donors. “The holidays can be a dark time for people in need,” said Sandra Blythe-Perry, Inter-Faith Community Services executive director. “Through the support of the community, we are able to create a warm glow in the hearts of neighbors in need. Creating that special moment for a child, individual, family or senior can have a long-lasting impact. It can restore hope and help lift the depression often surrounding poverty. I am so grateful for all the community support we get during this time of year because it truly changes lives with a hand up, not a hand out.” These programs are essential in helping struggling families manage
these annual one-time expenses. Quite often, the one-time expenses can run upwards of several hundred dollars. For families living paycheck to paycheck or seniors on a fixed income, it simply isn’t possible to pay for this. You may be wondering, what is the big deal in missing a Thanksgiving dinner or a holiday gift? Going without these items is a huge emotional burden. It creates a further separation between those who have and those who have not. Simply skipping these events puts a real mental burden on these families in need and can lead to long-term depression issues. It is part of the spiraling effect of poverty. As you or your family misses out on these
events, it speeds you quicker into poverty. Through the community’s generosity, IFCS is a beacon of hope during the stressful holiday season. This means IFCS is able to provide a Thanksgiving meal to hundreds of families during November. In December, IFCS puts the joy in a child’s heart with gifts. They also help seniors with gifts and food that lifts their spirits. Join IFCS this year as they aim to provide every one of their clients a hand up, not a hand out during the holidays. During the next several weeks, IFCS needs the community’s support through financial and food donations. There is also a need of volunteers to help collect and distribute food and clothing. Find out more on how you can make a difference by visiting IFCS.org or by calling 303-789-0501.

Honoring his lifetime commitment to selflessly serving the community, more than 60 invited guests joined our members in celebrating his amazing life. Family members shared wonderful memories of a man whose dedication to his pro-
fession, his practice, his family and his community, perfectly exemplifies Rotary’s motto of “Service Above Self.” Club President David Partheymuller awarded Bortz with the Club’s Distinguished Service Award recognizing his lifetime of service to the greater Littleton community.

Santa Fe at Oxford to close this weekend
Road over railroad tracks to be replaced
By Tom Barry This weekend the Colorado Department of Transportation will close Santa Fe Drive between Union Avenue and Oxford Avenue from Friday, Nov. 1, reopening, weather permitting, early the next Monday morning, Nov. 4. Major delays are expected throughout the weekend and alternate routes are strongly suggested. Both directions of Santa Fe will be shut down allowing construction activates to replace materials between the railroad tracks. “Over the last several months, the roadway and the material between the rails have failed, creating an uneven driving surface,” said CDOT Resident Engineer Ron Buck. “In order to resolve the issues at this location, we must replace the railroad crossing, including the roadway approaches and rail components.” In actuality, this railroad crossing has deteriorated vastly over the last two years, as motorists hit the tracks driving in excess of 50 mph. The closures are expected to begin at 10 p.m. on Friday night and be completed before the Monday morning rush hour. “The repairs are estimated to cost $998,000,” said Mindy Crane, a CDOT spokeswoman. “The Union Pacific Railroad will work jointly with CDOT to replace the at-grade crossing, approximately 500 feet south of Oxford Ave. Business and residential access will still be available at Oxford Avenue and Union Avenue. “Motorists on northbound Santa Fe Drive can take Belleview Avenue east to Federal Boulevard and then travel north on Federal Boulevard to Hampden Avenue. Take Hampden Avenue west to Santa Fe Drive.” CDOT also noted, “motorists on southbound Santa Fe Drive can take Hampden Avenue east to Federal
Boulevard and then travel south on Federal Boulevard to Belleview Avenue. Take Belleview Avenue west to Santa Fe Drive.” The contractor for this repair construction project is Lawrence Construction Company.
University Boulevard & Belleview Avenue
Drivers in the southeast quadrant still need to contend with significant construction activity at the Cherry Hills intersection of University Boulevard and Belleview Avenue. Readers have shared that without warning that periodic lane closures have occurred at the intersection. The construction activity is expected to last until through March 2014. CDOT did not respond to a request for updates on this Denver Tech Center intersection in advance of publication.
Denver partners with homeless providers to shelter those in need this winter
The City and County of Denver and Denver’s Road Home are working hand-in-hand with homeless shelter providers to launch its Winter Overflow Operation, which will remain in effect through April 30, 2014. Thanks to support from the city, the following organizations will provide additional overnight shelter to homeless individuals. • Denver Rescue Mission will have the capacity to serve 150 additional men at Martin Luther King Recreation Jr. Center for the next 30 days. At the end of the 30 days, the winter shelter will move to another location. Individuals will be transported from the Denver Rescue Mission Lawrence Street shelter to the recreation center for the night. In the morning, individuals will be transported back to the Lawrence Street where they can eat breakfast. • Volunteers of America will continue to run a women’s overnight shelter that can accommodate between 55 - 60 females at 1370 Elati St. • The Delores Project has extended its overnight shelter to provide 10 additional beds for homeless females. • Urban Peak has extended its overnight shelter to provide 10 additional beds for homeless youth.
• When shelters fill to capacity, Denver Human Services, the Samaritan House or Denver Sheriff’s office may issue a motel voucher to women and families whom have lived in Denver County for at least 30 days. “We are fortunate to have a strong network of caring homeless providers that can provide shelter, which is a critical and life saving need for hundreds of people in our community,” Denver’s Road Home Executive Director Bennie Milliner said. “Together, we want to make sure that our most vulnerable population has access to a safe and warm place to sleep at night.” The Salvation Army, Capitol Hill United Ministries Women’s Homeless Initiative, Catholic Charities, Denver Rescue Mission, The Delores Project, Volunteers of America, Urban Peak and several smaller organizations will continue to operate its year-round shelters. People needing a safe a warm place to sleep at night should call Mile High United Way at 2-11 to learn how to get connected to shelter. Many day and overnight shelters need new or gently used coats, gloves, hats, socks, blankets and toiletry donations. For more information, visit www.denversroadhome.org.

Denver Public Schools projected to become largest school district in Colorado For the first time in decades, the Denver Public Schools is projected to be the largest school district in Colorado in terms of enrollment. Following years of very strong enrollment gains in which DPS became the fastest-growing urban school district in the country, DPS has seen its enrollment jump from 73,503 in 2007-08 to a projected 88,208* this school year (2013-14), a growth of more than 20 percent in the last six years. This is the first time DPS has been the largest school district in the state since the 1970s, with this year’s estimated enrollment total of 88,208 being the highest enrollment DPS has experienced since 1973. DPS’ enrollment boom is the result primarily of thousands more families choosing to send their students to Denver’s schools. Enrollment in DPS has grown far faster than the growth of the school-age population in Denver. Between the 2000 and 2010 census, for example, Denver’s school-age population grew by 2 percent, while DPS’ enrollment grew by 8.5 percent during the same time period. “I am very grateful to our
teachers and school leaders for their work in driving the improvements in our schools that are driving such extraordinary enrollment increases,” DPS Superintendent Tom Boasberg said. “At a time when many urban school districts are seeing enrollment decreases, thousands more Denver families are choosing to send their students to the Denver Public Schools. We are very appreciative for the support of our community. In our partnership with the city of Denver, we are fortunate to be part of a virtuous cycle in which DPS is benefitting from the city’s growth and DPS’ improvements are helping to drive that growth.”
Middle schools grow enrollment One of the leading factors in the school system’s enrollment growth is the increase in students enrolled at the middle school level. Since 2008, middle school enrollment in DPS has grown by 3,162 students, or a 21.8 percent increase. To compare, during a five-year period from 2002 to 2007, middle school enrollment
declined by 1,300 students, or an 8 percent decrease. “Since the launch of the Denver Plan, we have placed an emphasis on strengthening our middle schools and offering families more highquality middle schools,” Boasberg said. “The significant improvements in our middle schools have, in turn, driven very strong enrollment gains and reversed a pattern in which DPS used to lose many students between elementary and middle school.”
Fastest-growing in academics As the district with the highest rate of year-on-year student academic progress among major Colorado school districts, DPS’ academic improvements have been the strongest driver of overall enrollment growth by
More seats for young students
helping to significantly increase the percentage of school-age children who live in Denver and choose to attend Denver Public Schools. For example, as a result of improvements driven by school turnaround efforts in the Montbello area, this school year there are 656 more students enrolled at schools in Far Northeast Denver at the sixth and ninth grades alone than there were in 2010— a 40 percent increase.
A third driver of increased enrollment has been our expansion of Early Childhood Education opportunities. Since the introduction of the Denver Preschool Program in 2008 and aided by the early childhood investments in the 2012 Mill Levy, DPS has expanded its total preschool seats by more than 1,400. Importantly, these funds have also allowed DPS to increase full-day preschool offerings.
Regional growth Finally, population increases in the city, and especially in Stapleton and Far Northeast Denver, have also driven increased enrollment. In the last three years DPS has welcomed nearly 1,000 new students from Stapleton alone. Forecasts show that DPS is to expect about 1,900 more students in Stapleton in the next five years. *Includes Early Childhood Education (ECE) enrollment, including community partner seats. These figures are projections and are subject to change upon final release of enrollment numbers by the state later this semester.
Decline in drop-out rate A second driver has been the decrease in DPS’s dropout rate. Since the start of the Denver Plan in 2005, Denver Public Schools has cut the dropout rate in half, resulting in 2,000 fewer students a year who drop out of school and potentially go on to graduate.

Football, public land, and highway repairs
Congratulations to Colorado State University for their recent victory over the Wyoming Cowboys playing in Laramie, Wyo., and bringing back home the Bronze Boot. This is the first time in the last three years CSU has won and it really shows the progress being made by Athletic Director Jack Graham and Coach Jim McElwain. Looks like the Rams may gain enough support for the new football stadium on campus in Fort Collins. Metro CSU fans should get behind the new stadium and the football program. The game against Alabama was a real boon
The Broncos offense should never had sent Hillman into the line on the 2-yard line against the Colts. The small back fumbled the ball after being mauled by the huge linemen. If anything, Hillman is fast running around the outside. Anyway, the Broncos are a treat and there are great games looming against Kansas City and San Diego for the league lead. The Broncos will enjoy a break with the upcoming bye week.

enough reasons to tax Colorado citizen $1 billion in new taxes. We should be paying to put all Kindergarten kids into school, not just those who can afford to pay the afternoon tuition. That cost might have been only around $200 million, which I would vote for in a heartbeat. That issue needs to be addressed by the Legislature in 2014.
Focus is off
I think all of us – Democrats, Republicans and Tea Party folks – need to concentrate on fiscal matters. Spending less and figuring ways to reduce the national debt, while looking at income tax proposals, flat taxes, and other means to balance the budget. I think debating the social issues like gay marriage, marijuana and abortion should be individual choices left up to each individual and their lifestyle choices. One way to get out of debt would be to sell all of the federal lands being administered by the BLM that cost billions to maintain. We need to stake out our National Parks, any proposed Wilderness areas, and sell the rest to private individuals, hunters, ranchers, investors and homebuilders and get out of the public
land business. Most of the government land is without water, so homesteaders didn’t want to live on the dry land. Today, homeowners can develop water wells and those wanting to live in rural areas could inhabit much of land. Years ago it was discussed under the name of “Sagebrush Rebellion,” but usage of public lands should be a legislative topic in Colorado and Washington, D.C.
Government funding
Surprisingly, the local media has not had much to say about the $450 million payment to Colorado tucked into the funding of the government that will come to Colorado for flood damage relief. The bill was put into play by Sens. Udall and Bennett during the Washington drama and was passed into the Senate budget proposal. That is a huge amount of money heading toward Colorado roads, bridges and damaged flood areas. Repairing highways and bridges is a function of government and while adding to the fiscal challenges, it was good work by our two Colorado senators.

Attention to period detail required finding polyester outfits, rotary phones & correct cars Continued from Page 1 screenwriter Beaty Reynolds’s Southern setting. Although the film’s budget kept the cast in Colorado, the co-producers, including cinematographer Chris Graves, were painstaking in their attention to period detail, taking weeks to find the right cars, rotary telephones or polyester outfits for Gloria’s guileless aspirations. Some scenes were reshot or cut when anachronistic details were spotted in the background. Such period-centricity is rare for lower-budget independent moviemaking, a branch of film for which any port in the storm – whatever its vintage – is often good enough. “Most people are not crazy,”
I always wanted to make a film set in the ‘70s. There’s something mythic about that time period. - Actress/Director Katharyn Grant Graves said. “We were quite determined and crazy. It’s a little like entrepreneurship, in general. It takes a certain amount of ignorance. You go into it not knowing how difficult it’s going to be. It’s like putting together a puzzle, but you have to find the pieces.” Not surprisingly, the resourceful crew managed to accumulate a broad range of ‘70s kitsch, picking up the odd item at garage sales and flea markets. “You’d see the ugliest stuff – and say, ‘that is great,’” Grant said.
The tackiness was a perfect backdrop for Roy Hutchins (Briel DiCristofaro), whose cheesy claims of having managed a famous country singer are enough to keep Gloria’s head in the clouds. Despite the challenges, Grant was determined to keep the country-tinged story of ambition gone awry in the decade in which she was born. “I always wanted to make a film set in the ‘70s,” she said. “There’s something mythic about that time period. Now everybody’s on a

It just seemed like a simpler time. Roy’s not a very good conman, and in this day and age maybe he couldn’t get away with it.” “Today, Gloria would Google him,” Graves added with a laugh.

‘The Book of Mormon’ keeps the faith Hit musical preaches to the irreverent choir
By Peter Jones Everything you have heard about The Book of Mormon is true. The musical is politically incorrect, hilarious, sacrilegious, touching and offensive. And while you won’t be singing the chorus to Spooky Mormon Hell Dream on your way out of the theater, the music has its own fleeting charm. As most know, The Book of Mormon is a fish-out-of-water tale with book and music by Colorado’s South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. The Broadway hit sees two naive missionaries travel to a remote village in Uganda, only to find that smiling proselytization is no match for famine, AIDS and tribal violence. The two are also no match for each other. Elder Price, ambitious and selfabsorbed, thinks his handsome missionary prowess would be better suited to the heathens of Orlando, Fla. Elder Cunningham, a well-meaning and insecure nerd, has never even bothered to read the text for which this musical is named.
For months, the missionaries have had no luck converting even a single native. But by virtue of sheer incompetence and Cunningham’s propensity to stretch the truth, one group of unlikely village converts is soon longing for a latter day in “Sal Tlay Ka Siti” (read: Salt Lake City). The Tony-winning mix of song, dance and vulgarity has something for everyone – to offend them, that is. And yes, even regular theatergoers may expect more for their money after all the insurmountable hype surrounding The Book of Mormon. In any case, those who share the Parker-Stone brand of iconoclasm will embrace every moment of this irreverent – yet ultimately, heart-filled – musical comedy. Response from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has been refreshingly understated. Some Mormon bloggers have expressed pleasant surprise at the play’s relative empathy and arguable lack of mean-spiritedness. Mormon scholar Richard Bushman has said when church members see the show, it is “like looking at themselves in a funhouse mirror.” In some cities, including Denver, the LDS Church has
taken out full-page advertising to encourage theater patrons to learn more about The Book of Mormon, arguing, “The book is always better.” LDS theology gets no shortage of doctrinal ribbing in the show’s two hours. Occasional flashbacks show church founder Joseph Smith joining in fun-filled play with Mormon angel Moroni. The song I Believe hilariously ventures to condense an entire belief system into several minutes of earnest declaration. “I believe that the Garden of Eden was in Jackson County, Missouri …” The bright side to all the buildup surrounding The Book of Mormon is that anyone who goes to see it has a very good idea what they are in for. For good or bad, you knew before reading this if the musical is your cup of theater. Trust your gut.

Affordable Rates and Advertising that Gets Results
Your Weekly Horoscope – By Gren Chatworth SCORPIO (Oct 23 – Nov 21) If you have access to the Internet take a good hard look at it. There is an opportunity for you – which you will never regret. Someone you will make contact with will change your whole life.
PISCES (Feb 19 – March 20) A situation is coming up shortly that you have been dreaming about for a long time. The clouds of indecision will clear away, and you will see a very blue sky behind them. A good time for important changes for you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 – Dec 21) The ball is now rolling for all Sagittarius individuals; it’s up to you to keep it going! Your perceptions are very keen, and can help you do a great deal if used in the proper manner. Don’t fuss too much over small details. It’s the big ones that count.
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) There is definitely someone new in the lives of Aries persons at this time. A variety of forms could take place – it all depends upon your individual horoscope and the year of your birth whether or not this something new is good or bad.
CAPRICORN (Dec 22 – Jan 19) Set your sights high, and take careful aim at some accomplishments that you have tried to attain all your life but never quite made it. Don’t overlook small details.
TAURUS (April 20 – May 20) Journey may be necessary for you to obtain your legal rights. Seek competent legal advice from your lawyer. For many in the sign of Taurus, a change of occupation is indicated.
AQUARIUS (Jan 20 – Feb 18) Be yourself this week – you will lose friends readily, if you try to be someone you are not. The only person to fool will be you. Check carefully your aims this week and work diligently to your goal.

CANCER (June 21 – July 22) A feeling of being completely ‘fed-up’ with things as they are should be curbed this week. Actually, things are not nearly as bad as they seem; it’s the way you are looking at them that makes it all seem so bad. Cheer up and wait for the sunrise. LEO (July 23 – Aug 22) Things look pretty calm and peaceful in Leo this week. Any stress or strain that you may have been under should leave you now. Good time for rest and relaxation. Enjoy yourself. VIRGO (Aug 23 – Sept 22) There may be a great number of people offering you suggestions this week as to how to handle a certain problem. Sift out the sense from the nonsense. You will be able to take a big step forward if you make the right decisions now. LIBRA (Sept 23 – Oct 22) Correspondence is highlighted this week.

‘Thomas Moran’s Yellowstone, A Project for the Nation’
F
By Rosemary Fetter
rom expansive landscapes to soaring mountain peaks, Thomas Moran’s art captures the grandeur of the Old West more eloquently than any other painter of the nineteenth century. He is likely best known for enormous canvases like The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone and The Chasm of the Colorado, which were purchased by the U.S. Congress for the princely sum of $10,000 to hang in the Capitol. A current exhibition at the Denver Art Museum explores a different aspect of his work, his chromolithographs from the portfolio, The Yellowstone National Park and Mountain Regions of Portions of Idaho, Nevada, Colorado and Utah, 1976. The artwork originated during Ferdinand V. Hayden’s 1871 Geological Survey Expedition to Yellowstone National Park, when Moran and photographer William Henry Jackson were hired to document the landscape of the region. Moran worked closely with Jackson in the field and, along with his own drawings, used his colleague’s prints for reference when he returned to the studio. The lithographs would be published in 1876 by artist and lithographer Louis Prang, who has been called “The Father of the American Christmas card.” The first illustrated publication about the West, the portfolio celebrated America’s 1776 Centennial. Although most of the works are from Yellowstone, two lithographs were made from Colorado settings, The Mountain of the Holy Cross, Colorado and Mosquito Trail, Rocky Mountains of Colorado. A copy of the portfolio is included in the exhibit. “The prints were pricey but not exorbitant,” said exhibit cocurator Thomas Smith. “They introduced Moran’s work to the general public. For most Americans, it was their first encounter with scenes from the newly established Yellowstone National Park. Although there’s no documented evidence, it’s been rumored that Moran’s paintings and Jackson’s photographs inspired Congress to create Yellowstone National Park in 1872.” The chromolithograph process, which also is demonstrated in the exhibit, uses stone prepared with a grease-based medium and ink. The work was labor intensive, since only one color could be applied at a time. Understandably, the process has become obsolete. Apparently Prang made 500 sets of lithographs, but many of them were destroyed by a fire in his studio. Approximately 150 sets are thought to remain. The lithographs are displayed alongside Moran’s watercolors, drawings or engravings, plus photographs taken by Jackson during the expedition. Moran came from a family of artists, the son of two handloom weavers, born in Bolton, Lancashire on Jan. 12, 1837. As the weaving process in England became more mechanized and put his parents out of a job, they

moved the family to Kensington, Philadelphia in 1844. Thomas had two brothers who were artists, one of whom (Edward), taught him to paint. At 16, Moran became an apprentice to a Philadelphia wood engraving firm, Scattergood & Telfer. He did watercolor drawings in his spare time, creating his first oil painting in 1856. Shortly thereafter, Moran traveled to Lake Superior, where he painted and sketched the landscape of the Great Lakes. Back home, he sold lithographs of the Great Lakes before setting off to London, to see the works of the famed British
landscape painter JMW Turner, who served as the inspiration for his later work. Moran had a long career, making some 1,500 illustrations for Scribner’s Monthly magazine and other books and periodicals. He traveled to Yellowstone eight times between 1871 and 1892, becoming so identified with the Park that he began to sign his work T. Yellowstone Moran. He added his thumbprint in 1911. He also made etchings, most of them between 1878 and 1898. He moved to California, where he died Aug. 2, 1926 at age 89. The exhibit was co-curated

by Toby Jurovics, curator of the Joslyn Art Museum, and Thomas Smith, director of the Petrie Institute of Western American Art at the DAM. A reprint publication of Joni L. Kinsey’s Thomas Moran’s West: Chromolithography, High Art and Popular Taste also is available. The book details Moran’s work, the controversial debate around chromolithogra-
phy, the technical accomplishments of Prang and Moran and the rise of Yellowstone National Park as a symbol of the West. The exhibition will remain on display in the Gates Gallery of the Hamilton Building through Jan. 20, 2014. For more information, call 720-8655000 or visit www.denverart museum.org.
