Sensuous sounds Orchestra brings on color, passion in ‘Viva La Tango’ onductor Jason Lim said he wants to stretch the technical skills of the musicians of Odysseus Chamber Orchestra during the concert at 8 p.m. Saturday at Denton’s First United Methodist Church, 201 S. Locust St. But before you think “atonal” and groan, Lim also said he knows the musicians can bring out the colors and intensity of the program.

“Viva La Tango” is a concert of music by Argentine composer Astor Piazzolla.

Lim appeared to be champing at the bit to bring the composer’s fiery, passionate work to the local stage.

“He was a master of tango,” Lim said. “He fused tango with classical music and with jazz and created something called tango nueva.”

The orchestra will perform arrangements of Piazzolla’s music. The composer played the bandoneon, a handheld cousin of the accordion and a type of concertina — a wind instrument that creates notes by pressing buttons that sound a pitch voiced by air forced through reeds.

Expect a leisurely intermission during Odysseus Chamber Orchestra’s “Viva La Tango.” Between the first and second half of Saturday’s concert, dancers from Dallas’ Creative Tango will perform a five-minute demonstration of the famous Argentine dance, then lead a 20-minute tango lesson for audience members.

The bandoneon made its way to South America by sea from Germany, and eventually became a folk instrument that South Americans played with enthusiasm — especially for the tango.

Lim said he sought out arrangements of Piazzolla’s music for Odysseus’ instrumen-

orchestra will perform Bobby Lapinski’s arrangement of “Libertango,” and bassist Jeff Bradetich, who heads the double bass program at the University of North Texas College of Music, will perform as a soloist with the orchestra on his own arrangement of “Contrabajaendo.” Bradteich is the soloist for “Contrabajissimo.”

Lim said Bradetich joined the concert after the two musicians talked last year. Lim said Bradetich, who created the International Bass Solo Competition, believes in Denton supporting an orchestra.

“He’s a master technician,” Lim said. “He has full command of his instrument.”

Lim said Piazzolla’s tangos aren’t driven by the typical tango dance rhythm.

“His rhythms are almost violent,” Lim said. “This program is very challenging. The rhythm and clarity demand the musician be in the moment and in the music. We’ll have had three rehearsals, and they’ll be efficient. I’ll have to get the players to dial into their personality.”

Tickets cost $15 for adults and $10 for students. Seating is general admission. To buy tickets and for more information, visit www.odysseus chamberorchestra.com.

f you missed Texas countryblues rocker Ray Wylie Hubbard when he came through town last year, make a date to be at Dan’s Silverleaf by 8:30 tonight at the latest. Hubbard, an acolyte of Willie Nelson, spent last year touring with songs from his 2012 release, The Grifter’s Hymnal. Hubbard is a quintessential Texas musician. He came of age in the 1960s, when Texas was still finding its place in the American Southwest. All of the cultures that make up the cocktail that is Texas can be found in a Hubbard record: the twang of country and Western, the bedeviling beat of the Beatles invasion, the folksy, torchy quality of the Delta blues. And for all of Denton’s talk about needing its music honest, it’s found someone to sit near the altar with in Ray Wylie. The singer-songwriter has the soul of a poet and the calloused fingers of a road-worn blues guitarist. (See: “Whoop and Holler” from A: Enlightenment B: Endarkenment, 2009). Kelley Mickwee from the Trishas opens at 8 p.m. Hubbard goes on at 9 p.m. Tickets cost $25 for limited seating, $15 for standing room. For tickets, visit www.danssilverleaf. com.

OPENING FRIDAY That Awkward Moment (★★1⁄2) This chatty romantic comedy in the modern mode — rude, nude and crude — has some funny, writerly riffs on relationships and how to avoid them. But the movie, like star Zac Efron and writer-director Tom Gormican, never lets us forget that it’s trying too hard, straining to spit out sexy, silly patter, reaching for that raunchy costume failure at a dinner party, grasping for gross takes on trips to the toilet. Efron, Miles Teller (The Spectacular Now) and Michael B. Jordan (Fruitvale Station) play three New York pals who vow, when one is dumped by his wife, to stay single and enjoy the mingling. Which all of them ignore. With Imogen Poots, Mackenzie Davis, Jessica Lucas and Josh Pais. Rated R, 94 minutes. — McClatchy-Tribune News Service

NOW PLAYING American Hustle (★★★1⁄2) David O. Russell co-wrote and directed the story of Irving Rosenfeld (Christian Bale), who in 1978, began running scams with his partner, Sydney Prosser (Amy Adams). Busted by an FBI agent (Bradley Cooper), the two then help trap politicians. High-energy scenes combine with bad hair and worse costumes for a wild ride.

Jennifer Lawrence burns up the screen as Irving’s unstable wife.

Rated R, 138 minutes. — Boo Allen August: Osage County When a family crisis brings them back to the Oklahoma house they grew up in, three sisters confront the dysfunctional woman who raised them. With Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Ewan McGregor and Chris Cooper. Written

by Tracy Letts. Directed by John Wells. Rated R, 130 minutes. — Los Angeles Times Frozen (★★★1⁄2) Disney’s new movie, very roughly based on Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Snow Queen,” follows two princesses: rambunctious young Anna (voiced by Kristen Bell) and older sister Elsa (Idina Menzel), who has the secret, magical ability to chill whatever she touches. Rated PG, 85 minutes. — Minneapolis Star Tribune Her (★★★) Spike Jonze wrote and directed this soulful meditation about a man (Joaquin Phoenix) who falls in love with his operating system (voiced by Scarlett Johansson). Jonze probes higher questions of what

Metropolitan Opera

oprano Renee Fleming sings her first Met “Live in HD” performance of one of her signature roles, the title character in Dvorak’s Rusalka. The Metropolitan Opera performance screens at 11:55 a.m. Feb. 8 at Cinemark 15 Vista Ridge Mall in Lewisville. The opera is about a water spirit’s tragic romance with a human prince. It’s drawn from several folk tales, including Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Little Mermaid.” Conductor Yannick Nezet-Segu leads a cast that includes Piotr Beczala as the handsome Prince Rusalka, who yearns to love; Dolora Zajick as the swamp witch Jezibaba; Emily Magee as the foreign princess and John Relyea as Rusalka’s father. Fleming has sung the role of Rusalka more than any other artist in Met history. Susan Graham hosts. Running time is about 4 hours, including two intermissions. Tickets cost $24 for adults, $22 for seniors and $16 for children. For tickets, visit www.cinemark.com/met-opera-rusalka-(2014).

actually makes a human. Thoughtful, if at times leisurely paced. With Chris Pratt, Amy Adams and Rooney Mara.

Rated R, 126 minutes. — B.A. The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (★★★1⁄2) The Desolation of Smaug is not much shorter than the first film of Peter Jackson’s Hobbit trilogy, but it feels brisker, lighter, funnier. Instead of a drawn-out intro, we get right to the action — the quest of Bilbo (Martin Freeman, himself livelier and funnier) and the band of dwarves, led by Thorin Oakenshield (Richard Armitage) to reclaim the kingdom of Erebor from the frightening dragon Smaug. Rated PG-13, 161 minutes. — The Associated Press The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (★★★) The action roars along in this second film edition of Suzanne Collins’ popular novels. Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) and Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) again face off against a team of rivals, but this time heavy intrigue at the capital looms large, particularly with President Snow (Donald Sutherland) and Plutarch Heavensbee (Philip

Seymour Hoffman). With an excellent supporting cast: Jeffrey Wright, Elizabeth Banks, Stanley Tucci, Liam Hemsworth, Woody Harrelson and Lenny Kravitz. Rated PG-13, 146 minutes. — B.A. I, Frankenstein Two centuries after his creation by Dr. Frankenstein, the creature Adam finds himself in the middle of a supernatural war over the fate of humanity. With Aaron Eckhart, Bill Nighy, Yvonne Strahovski and Miranda Otto. Written and directed by Stuart Beattie. Rated PG-13, 92 minutes. — LAT Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (★★1⁄2) In this Jack Ryan reboot, Chris Pine takes over as Tom Clancy’s CIA analyst. Shadow Recruit, which was scripted without a Clancy book, tells a new backstory for Ryan. Inspired by Sept. 11, he joins the Marines and is heroically injured in Afghanistan.

During his recovery, he meets his eventual fiancee (Keira Knightley) and is lured to the CIA by a mysterious recruiter (Kevin Costner). He’s covertly embedded at a Wall Street bank where he uncovers a Russian

plot to buy up U.S. Treasury bonds.

Director-actor Kenneth Branagh endows his film with (mostly) oldfashioned competency but little to distinguish it from superior thrillers that have come before. Rated PG-13, 105 minutes. — AP Lone Survivor (★★1⁄2) Mark Wahlberg stars in this true story of four Navy SEALS in Afghanistan in 2005 on a mission to find and eliminate a Taliban leader. When the squad is reduced to one (hence the title), he finds refuge in an unlikely place. The standard action flick accentuates the bravery of the squad, but co-writer and director Peter Berg never raises his film beyond routine adventure material. With Eric Bana, Emile Hirsch, Ben Foster and Taylor Kitsch. Rated R, 121 minutes. — B.A. Nebraska (★★★★) When Woodrow Grant (Bruce Dern) believes a magazine sweepstakes’ promise of riches, his youngest son, David (Will Forte), grudgingly agrees to drive him from Billings, Mont., to Lincoln, Neb., to collect. Nebraska is the latest bittersweet commentary on life from

director Alexander Payne (Sideways, About Schmidt). Deadpan funny and always thoughtful. With Rance Howard, Stacy Keach and a terrific June Squibb. Rated R, 115 minutes. — B.A. The Nut Job (★★1⁄2) In Peter Lepeniotis’ animated film, the animals in Liberty Park, ruled by a gruff raccoon (voiced by Liam Neeson) are facing a severe nut shortage, and Surly the squirrel (Will Arnett) has somehow set fire to the winter stockpile. Banished from the park, Surly discovers a nut shop. If he can snag that booty, he’ll be golden for the winter. With Katherine Heigl, Brendan Fraser and Maya Rudolph. Rated PG, 86 minutes.

— AP Ride Along (★★) A little Kevin Hart goes a long way in Ride Along, a dull buddy picture engineered as a vehicle for the mini-motor mouth Hart and the perma-sneering Ice Cube. Cube is cranky cop James, whose pursuit of a mysterious villain is interrupted by his sister’s fiance, Ben (Hart), a video game-addicted school security guard.

Hostage situation turns mushy Besides manhunt, love’s as easy as pie in ‘Labor Day’

By Mick LaSalle San Francisco Chronicle

In Labor Day, a woman falls in love with the man who takes her hostage, but the movie goes out of its way to make that journey easy for her.

He’s an escaped convict, but wouldn’t you want to escape prison, too? And he’s a murderer, except maybe he’s not really a murderer, just unfairly convicted. And sure, he holds her captive in her own home, but not for one minute do you ever think he’s going to hurt her, or her 12-year-old son.

She’s depressed and rarely leaves the house. So how else is she going to meet a goodlooking guy, except in a hostage situation? And the son needs a father figure, someone to show him how to swing a bat and change a tire. This is win-win for everybody, but it’s too winwin — a set-up that short-circuits drama, that shoehorns a situation into a precooked formulation: He’s a real prisoner and she’s an emotional prisoner, and each offers the other the possibility of freedom.

If only Labor Day didn’t make things so easy, it might have been a better film. For example, imagine if he really were dangerous — then falling in love would not be such a given. By cutting off every possible avenue that the story may travel but one, writer-director Jason Reitman (Up in the Air, Young Adult) makes the movie’s path discernible to all, to the extent that we really do know everything before it happens,

MOVIES Continued from Page 7 James drags Ben on a ride-along just to convince the dude he isn’t cut out for police work and that he isn’t good enough for James’ supermodel sister Angela (Tika Sumpter). Rated PG-13, 100 minutes. — MCT

A convict (Josh Brolin, center) makes his escape with a little help from a shy woman (Kate Winslet) and her son (Gattlin Griffith) in “Labor Day.”

Labor Day Rated PG-13, 111 minutes.

Opens Friday.

sometimes a full hour before.

The overall effect is drippy, not emotional but sentimental.

Still, the situation has enough inherent drama and the performances enough truth that Labor Day maintains interest. Kate Winslet is Adele, a shy, divorced mother for whom a trip to the grocery store is a

The Saratov Approach Two Mormon missionaries in Russia fight for survival after being kidnapped, beaten and held for ransom in this film based on true events in 1998.

With Corbin Allred, Maclain Nelson and Nikita Bogolyubov. Rated PG-13, 107 minutes. — LAT Saving Mr. Banks (★★★) Tom Hanks stars as Walt Disney and Emma Thompson turns in a spirited

major excursion. She has lost all her confidence and most of her ability to face the world, when she meets Frank (Josh Brolin), who, with suggested threats, makes his way into her car and then into her house.

Outside there’s a manhunt, while inside Frank soon is making chili and baking peach pies.

Throughout, it’s as if the performances, grounded in reality, are in collision with the story. Though it’s always a bit of a waste to cast Winslet as an introvert, she brings a world of pain to Adele’s every utterance,

just as Brolin brings the heavy aura of a tortured history to Frank. We believe he has been through hell and wants desperately to remain free and with this woman.

So why, oh why, with a price on his head, do they keep forgetting to lock the front door?

And why, oh why, do they not pull down the shades? For that matter, why does he hang out on the back porch serenading Adele on guitar? They can’t ask the audience to take their problems seriously if they don’t.

With no obstacles to their forming a bond, there’s really

performance as P.L. Travers, the author of Mary Poppins. He brings her to Hollywood from England in hopes of landing the movie rights to her book. But he finds her cantankerous and obstructionist at every turn.

Amusingly entertaining with two fine lead performances. Rated PG-13, 125 minutes. — B.A. 12 Years a Slave (★★★★) British director Steven McQueen directs

Chiwetel Ejiofor as Solomon Northup, a free man in 1841 New York who is abducted and sold into slavery in the South. He experiences torture and humiliations from his various owners, particularly one (Michael Fassbender).

Provocative yet well-made film touches many buttons while delivering a compelling experience. Rated R, 133 minutes. — B.A. The Wolf of Wall Street (★★1⁄2)

not enough story to the AdeleFrank relationship to fill out a movie. And so, Reitman, who adapted Joyce Maynard’s novel, gives us flashbacks, both to Frank’s past and to Adele’s past.

These are unwelcome, but even worse is the story’s shift in favor of Adele’s 12-year-old son (Gattlin Griffith), who develops a cliched friendship with a cliched sassy girl from the big city.

Labor Day is a film of many faults. Yet even if we never fully believe in Adele and Frank, we end up caring about them, and that’s some kind of achievement.

Leonardo DiCaprio stars in this inconsistently high-energy film from Martin Scorsese that skewers Wall Street and those who bend the rules to work there. A blazing first half filled with excess slows to a second-half grind. Fine supporting cast includes Matthew McConaughey, Margot Robbie, Shea Whigham, Jonah Hill and Jon Bernthal. Rated R, 180 minutes. — B.A.

Documentary studies Denton’s pathway to desegregation

By Lucinda Breeding | Features Editor

enton native and filmmaker David Barrow thinks Denton is a special place. And it isn’t special by accident.

In his documentary film When We Were All Broncos, Barrow takes a look back at the people — the decisions they made and the hard work they did — who brought this small Texas town from beneath the shadow of Jim Crow.

D

The film opens Thin Line, a five-day documentary film and music festival.

“I was on a remarkable football team in 1972,” said Barrow, whose late father, Frank Barrow, was mayor of Denton.

“We were the first team to go to the playoffs in 42 years.”

Until desegregation, black students attended Fred Moore School in Southeast Denton. Barrow said the documen-

tary traces the origins of Denton schools’ racial desegregation, uncovering some surprising information about the people who reached across social and cultural barriers to ease black students into white schools.

“One of the things I always thought about was how lucky we were,” Barrow See BRONCOS on 10

Broncos said. “We had people like coach [C.H.] Collins from Fred Moore and coach Billy Ryan, and [Broncos coach] Bill Carrico, who played with Abner Haynes.”

Haynes and another student, Leon King, were the first black athletes to integrate the football team at what is now University of North Texas, in 1956.

Barrow said he looks back at the 1972 Broncos as an avatar of a new generation.

“We integrated with the Fred Moore School [when I was] in the eighth grade,” he said. “It was a special time. You think what a small group of people actually straddle that time before and after desegregation, it makes you think. And I wanted to go back and not just kind of reminisce about that team, but also look at the history of Denton and why we were where we were when we were.”

Barrow researched the history of Quakertown, something he grew up knowing about, but reviewed more carefully.

Quakertown was a thriving black neighborhood in Denton until the 1920s, when residents were forced out to make way for a city park. Many of the displaced residents relocated to Southeast Denton, along with the Fred Douglass School — which was renamed around 1950 for Fred Moore, the school’s longtime principal.

“It led me to realize that we were very lucky, yes, but we had some remarkable people in our history, too,” Barrow said. “Fred Moore was a bridge builder. He did a lot of things and built a lot of bridges that made it possible for Denton to desegregate. And we had the remarkable career of football coach Abner Haynes.

And there was the Denton Women’s Interracial Fellowship, too. That group of women built a lot of bridges and worked together to make things happen that really didn’t happen in other cities. Denton ISD, the school board, all of these groups and people played a part in desegregating Denton.”

Other cities didn’t make changes until leaders and policy dictated it.

“Dallas made progress much more slowly, and the progress

Denton native David Barrow is the filmmaker behind “When We Were All Broncos,” a documentary about Denton High School during desegregation, from 1968 to 1973.

was really top-down. In Denton it was a much more organic feeling,” Barrow said.

Historians said much the same late last year when Dallas honored John F. Kennedy on the 50th anniversary of the president’s assassination. Historians told KERA-FM (90.1) that Dallas leaders and activists had advised Kennedy not to come to Dallas because so much hostility had fomented against him because of his pro-integration stance.

Denton’s racial integration

wasn’t flawless, but it preceded Dallas’.

“The net result was that Denton moved so decisively,” Barrow said. “If you look at the distribution of students at our high schools, we don’t have a black high school and a white high school. Our schools have remained very multicutural, and I think that’s kind of a legacy of that period of time.”

Barrow has lived in Dekalb, Ill., for more than 20 years, but he still talks about Denton as though he lives here.

“There’s been a lot of back and forth between the two [states],” he said.

Denton’s universities played a part in the city’s forward motion. Student activists demonstrated for integration.

“I would put it this way … the universities became a real place of change for Denton. Not all of the people at the universities were from here,” Barrow said.

“There were stand-ins at the Campus Theatre to integrate the

theater.”

Before desegregation, black movie patrons could watch films only from the balcony of the Campus Theatre. Activists from the community and the college campuses participated in demonstrations at the cinema.

“It was a difficult time, because everyone was looking at Selma and New Orleans and there was some real violence around these issues,” Barrow said. “The views of the stand-ins varied according to who you were. There were slight differences of opinion about it. But the way these things were handled, things went much easier than they could have. … Denton, for a town its size, had an extraordinary amount of cultural capital.”

When We Were All Broncos began as a smaller project, but grew into an 83-minute feature produced by Barrow’s production company OC Imageworks and the Denton Public School Foundation.

Barrow’s son, independent filmmaker Brian Barrow, is the director of photography on the project. The film is co-produced

by Denton High graduate and actress Susan Davis. Gary Hutchins is an associate producer.
