n Denton, St. Patrick’s Day comes with music — Irish traditional, rock and a Denton hybrid called skunkgrass. St. Paddy’s Day on Walnut gets started at 5 p.m. March 11 on the corner block of Walnut and Elm streets just off the Square. Officials are billing it as a “warm-up” for 35 Denton music festival, which starts later that night. St. Paddy’s on Walnut is a family event, with a children’s costume contest and Show Us You’re Irish, a beard contest and the St. Paddy’s Pub Crawl. The celebration starts with an official Irish blessing and toast at 6:30 p.m. The music, food and block party rolls on after that. A lineup of Denton bands will keep the music play: County Rexford with Irish traditional, Remain with rock, and Boxcar Bandits with skunkgrass. Attendees can get Irish food, face painting, ice cream and T-shirts.

We're not Dallas, Fort Worth or Austin. We're

ho else has seen a man flying down Carroll Boulevard on a solowheel? Just us? Speaking of speeding, the college kids are really getting the hang of hoverboards (so-called even though they have two wheels and don’t actually, like, hover). A young man jetted west on Hickory Street while sipping a little something from a Styrofoam cup. Impressive. ■ Oh, hey — rising Denton alt-pop musician Jessie Frye got a prestigious invitation. The singer-songwriter will perform at a Denton’s Bernie Sanders rally on Sunday. (Don’t worry, the rally won’t conflict with the mid-season six premiere of The Walking Dead.) “This is nothing short of an honor,” Frye said. The Sanders campaign hasn’t announced the location, but the rally will be from 1 to 3 p.m. on Valentine’s Day, somewhere in Denton. Bernie won’t grace the event himself, but his supporters will get to hear from Jim Hightower, the former student government president at North Texas State University who went on to become Texas’ agriculture commissioner. The rally sign-up page is at http://bit.ly/1QWWCQl. ■ If the Society of American Florists is mad at you, do you send them flowers from Europe? Ask the relaxation franchise Massage Envy. The massage chain took out Valentine’s Day ads that urge romantics to purchase massages “because flowers wilt and chocolates cause cavities.” The floral society asked the company to pull its mean ads. Massage Envy’s response? Something along the lines of “sorry, not sorry.” Maybe the chain should send the floral society officers gift certificates. That way, they could soothe those frazzled flower-arranging nerves. ■ Denton businessman Michael Ingle is going to be on

FRIDAY Today — Deadline to enter “Freedom Starts Within Us,” an art competition for local students in grades 6-12, at the Martin Luther King Jr. Recreation Center, 1300 Wilson St.

Judging takes place Feb. 15-17. Winners will be notified and announced during the Black History Month Celebration on Feb. 20. 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. — TWU’s 18th Edible Car Contest in Hubbard Hall, on Administration Drive.

ABC’s Shark Tank on Feb. 19. Ingle is the man behind Clean Sleep, a device that cleans mattresses. (Go ahead. Google “mattress germs.” We dare you.) Ingle wants to market his Clean Sleep machine, which gets hauled around in a 16-foot truck, to hotels, senior living facilities and hospitals. Shark Tank is a sort of game show that introduces business people and inventors to a panel of investors. The show airs at 8 p.m. on Fridays. ■ First Refuge Ministries hasn’t announced ticket prices or the place, yet, but singer and humorist Mark Lowry will be the speaker for its annual gala at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 13. Lowry is probably best known as the comic baritone who goofs off during performances of the Gaither Vocal Band. Lowry sometimes riffs on the serious-music faces made by his peers in the band — to the appreciation of the audience. But he’s also the man who wrote the lyrics to the contemporary Christmas classic “Mary, Did You Know?” ■ Denton musicians Matthew Gray (Matthew and the Arrogant Sea) and Ginny Mac (Brave Combo) will appear on an upcoming compilation album, Live at the Live Oak: Vol. 1, out on March 3. The collection is the first installment in a series that’s set to be produced twice a year, and it’ll be available at all major digital outlets, in select stores and, of course, at the venerated Fort Worth music venue Live Oak Music Hall. Also on the record: Jason Eady, Courtney Patton, Jacob Furr, Nicholas Altobelli, Susan Gibson, Keegan McInroe, Drew Kennedy, Bob Livingston, Bobby Duncan, Max Stalling and Matt Hillyer. A record release party will be held March 3 at the Live Oak. ■ We’re transfixed by the Bee Gees’ “Staying Alive” mashup with AC/DC’s “Back in Black” that’s making the rounds on social media. Find it here: www.youtube.com/ watch?v=oVCtJvLZvis. ■ Local music teachers who arrived at the San Antonio Convention Center for pre-conference events reported that the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center didn’t offer free Wi-Fi access for attendees of the annual Texas Music Educators Association Convention. Attendees said they could purchase Wi-Fi access for $12.95 per day. Unfortunately, the payment didn’t afford attendees a consistent signal throughout the convention center.

Parting Shot “If you hate what you’re seeing, you call it sex and violence. If you like it, you call it ‘romance and adventure.’” — Joe Bob Briggs, humorist Denton Dammit is an old-fashioned gossip column about people, places and things in and around Denton. Send your submissions to Lucinda Breeding at cbreeding@dentonrc.com.

Contest is open to students in grades 6-12 as well as TWU students. Entry fee is $32 per team. Register by Feb. 5. For rules and more information, visit www.twu.edu/arts-sciences/ edible-car-contest.asp or contact Anna Ryan at 940-898-3325 or

The Bart Crow Band plays Friday at Rockin’ Rodeo, 1009 Ave. C. Bart Crow serves up country rock with that worldly posture that comes from playing and writing in Austin. His band feels comfortable in those Texas boots, but like any group making music now, rock gets the kind of respect to merit a scorching guitar solo during a live set. Crow has a knack for wry observations on heartbreak — “Wear My Ring (Little Angel With a Bottle)” sounds like a peppy kiss-off. But listen harder, and under the funky bass hook and steamy guitar licks lies a breaking heart. Crow and his merry band of music-makers know that sometimes, the bitter stuff in life has a sweet way of hurting. Denton artist Kody West opens at 9 p.m. Tickets cost $12$15. Justin Furstenfeld, the Texas hard rocker known best for his work as the frontman for Houston band Blue October, stops in Denton on Feb. 21 for an intimate installment of his “Open Book” tour. Furstenfeld does introspection-withself-loathing well, and his 2014 solo album, Songs From an Open Book, keeps the moody blues but steps away from the metal-edged rock. Furstenfeld offers a surprisingly folksy turn on this project (which includes several Blue October covers). In fact, it wouldn’t be a stretch to hear Denton’s Midlake try on “The Answer” for size, with flutes and guitar and the whole English folk deal. In this tour, Furstenfeld is keeping things simple — a lot of acoustic treatment and his tortured tenor. (And wouldn’t you know, Furstenfeld can sound like Cat Stevens.) Where Blue October crashed and

Kyle Park comes back to Denton for another spin around the floor on Feb. 19. Where the Bart Crow Band likes to take a walk on the rock side, Park keeps his sound more inside the honkytonk — thanks mostly to the easy fiddle in the band. Park calls Austin home, and on past albums he’s paid homage to George Strait with smooth, unassuming vocals and waltzing choruses. Last fall, Park released Blue Roof Sessions and showed his heart a little more, with a touch of a mournful turn on the melodies and sparring drums. The Statesboro Review opens. Courtesy photo

COVER STORY

Thin guide to growing Must-see events at next week’s five days of documentary film and more By Preston Barta Film Critic

ager to produce their own works, a generation of aspiring Texas filmmakers have long known the answer: Go to Austin. Supposedly, there lies the promised land where filmmakers can retrace the steps of greats like Richard Linklater and Robert Rodriguez. A newcomer may be shaking up the formula, however. Denton has been edging into the spotlight as a home for new filmmakers reaching great heights in the indie and documentary film circuit. Look no further than Denton’s own Thin Line festival, a five-day event for fans of film, photography and music. Starting Wednesday, local and visiting cinephiles and art lovers are welcomed to join the unforgettable gathering that is Thin Line. Just last year, attendees witnessed Denton’s growing culture and talent through gallery exhibits and screenings of films such as Jason Lee’s Midlake: Live in Denton. Thin Line is only getting bigger and better by the year, as evidenced by this year’s diverse lineup. With a roster this stacked with flair, it’s hard to know where to even begin, so let us help with a few recommended selections.

THIN LINE What: a five-day documentary film, music and photography festival When: Wednesday through Feb. 21 Film location: Campus Theatre, 214 W. Hickory St. Music locations: Dan’s Silverleaf, 103 Industrial St.; Harvest House, 331 E. Hickory St.; Andy’s Bar, 122 N. Locust St.; and Rubber Gloves Rehearsal Studios, 411 E. Sycamore St. Photo exhibit locations: Patterson-Appleton Arts Center, 400 W. Hickory St., and Golden Triangle Mall, 2201 S. I-35E. Festival passes: An all-access pass costs $150. A film festival pass is $75; a music festival pass is $75. (Pass prices will drop with each day of the festival.) Allaccess and music pass holders will get a ticket to see Cam’ron on April 13 at Rockin’ Rodeo. Day passes: Single-day passes, which allow access to film and music events, cost $20-$45. Single tickets: Individual screening tickets cost $4-$10, and individual concert tickets cost $10-$30. Freebies: Photo events and daytime workshops are free. On the Web: www.thinlinefilmfest.com

A community celebrates in “How to Let Go of the World (and Learn to Love Everything Climate Can’t Change.” Director Josh Fox hit festival g seeking to expose the dangers of fracking. These days, the filmmaker is lending his lens to communities all over the world that are conflicting environmental consequences of energy policy. Fox’s documentary kicks off Thin Line on Wednesday night.

How to Let Go of the World (and Love All the Things Climate Can’t Change) 7 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 17 When it comes to any festival, you can’t miss

the opening night feature. It’s a great indicator of what you should expect for the rest of the fest. Kicking it off this year is Oscar-nominated filmmaker Josh Fox’s How to Let Go of the World (and Love All the Things Climate Can’t Change), a continued investigation of the

world’s threatening climate change. Some of you may roll your eyes at this subject, while others may assume it to be a rebrand of Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth. However, if you’re familiar with Fox’s body of work (Gasland), you know that he doesn’t only scratch the surface — he cuts deep and exposes you to

Life on Bitcoin 4 p.m. Friday, Feb. 19 If you value new experiences and like to stay ahead of the technological curve, Life on Bitcoin may be for you. Documenting the first 90 days of a newly married couple, the film highlights the characteristics and benefits of using the digital currency known as bitcoin. The asset may be foreign to you, but no worries: Life on Bitcoin provides the unacquainted with insightful firsthand experiences from bitcoin enthusiasts — and it just so happens to be a thoroughly entertaining film.

some of the world’s greatest issues. No matter what side of the fence you’re on, Fox will have you talking and researching the troubling matter. It should only feed your interest that both Fox and producer Deia Schlosberg will be among the many special guests putting in an appearance at Thin Line.

2 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 20 Remember that 1999 Denzel Washington movie The Hurricane? It was about a boxer who was wrongfully convicted of a triple murder and served more than 20 years in prison before he was proven innocent. Time Simply Passes is a documentary in a similar vein that explores a different, more intense case of wrongful incarceration. At Thin Line, it follows in the path of Sarah Burns’ The Central Park Five, which screened at the festival two years ago, chronicling the wrongful conviction of New York teens accused of raping and beating a jogger nearly to death. Director Ty Flowers’ Time Simply Passes puts viewers in the position of imagining what it would be like to be accused of killing your children and serving two decades behind bars.

In Florida in 1967, James Joseph Richardson was wrongfully convicted in the deaths of his seven children — a certain pain no one wants to imagine, either. Time Simply Passes touches on the ticklish topics. The film explores racism in the justice system and the way law enforcement and courts can collude — sometimes without animus — to punish the innocent, when the goal is to find and punish the bad guys. Once the truth appears and you’re set free after an ordeal like this, how do you put one foot in front of the other? If this great documentary proves anything, time doesn’t simply pass. It’s a traumatic endeavor through which one must find the strength to carry on. Don’t miss this one. See THIN LINE on 10

Thin Line Secret Screening 8 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 20 If you’ve ever been to Austin’s Fantastic Fest, you know that one of the biggest draws is the secret screening. There’s just something so exciting about throwing down some money and lining up with locals to discuss theories, waiting to see the big reveal. Thin Line has added this concept to its program, making it all the more a must-attend experience. We don’t know much about what will happen on this enticing evening, but we do know there will be “special guests attending” and it’s going to be “the biggest thing Thin Line has done so far,” according to festival programmer Stanton Brasher. We also know this screening seats only 300 people. What shall the festival history books read? Come out Saturday night and find out.

Other sights Besides some other great films of interest such as Re-Kill (a doc about zombie fascination), The Festiful Summer (music festival appeal) and Busking Turf Wars (finding oneself through art), there’s a laundry list of riveting shorts, the aforementioned art and photo galleries, and music events to soak in. And for newbies who figure documentaries are largely political? Thin Line always packs its lineup with a real variety of films — there are political films, but there are also inspirational films, family features and films that capture the quirky and the comedic. And since its inception, Thin Line has included fare that might look and feel like documentary film, but is fictional. The films are

OPENING FRIDAY Zoolander 2 (★1⁄2) There’s a chance the first Zoolander is on your guilty pleasure list. Its clever exploration of the fashion industry and jabs at its own ridiculousness resulted in a lovable movie. The same cannot be said of its toothless sequel, which starts off promising but descends into oblivion real quick. Taking place 15 years after its original story, Zoolander 2 brings back together Derek (Ben Stiller) and Hansel (Owen Wilson) to stop a conspiracy to kill the world’s most beautiful people. While there are a few light moments of chuckling (key ones from Will Ferrell’s villainous Mugatu), this disappointingly moronic follow-up is less inspired and lacks a new schtick to give it flight. Rated PG-13, 102 minutes. — Preston Barta

NOW PLAYING The Boy In an English village, a young American woman is hired to care for an 8-year-old who appears to be a life-sized doll. With Lauren Cohan, Rupert Evans and Jim Norton. Directed by William Brent Bell. Rated PG-13, 98 minutes. — Los Angeles Times Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (★★1⁄2) It’s as silly as it sounds, and not nearly as fun as it should be. In this adaptation of Seth GrahameSmith’s best-selling genre mashup of Jane Austen’s classic and, well, zombies, the Bennet sisters don’t just have marriage and love and class obstacles to fret about, there’s also the imminent threat of the undead overtaking the land. The film is all over the board stylistically and tonally, and the elements of both horror and comedy fall flat. Directed by Burr Steers. Rated PG-13, 108 minutes. — The Associated Press 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi (★★1⁄2) Starring John Krasinski (The Office) and James Badge Dale (The Departed), Michael Bay’s new film homes in on the true story of the soldiers who took action during the 2012 attacks on the American consulate in Benghazi, Libya. It’s a visceral action flick that is wellphotographed and undeniably reverent of the real-life heroes who risked and lost their lives, but we are ultimately let down by a cliched script and overly Hollywood production that ignores the harrowing complexities of modern war. Rated R, 144 minutes. — P.B.

20th Century Fox

Ryan Reynolds stars in “Deadpool.”

Dead-on ‘Deadpool’ Long wait for comical splatter-fest pays off By Preston Barta Film Critic

For years, it looked like the Deadpool movie was dead in the water. After X-Men Origins: Wolverine sewed Ryan Reynolds’ gleefully profane character’s mouth shut and 20th Century Fox turned down the idea of an R-rated comic-book movie, the odds definitely were not in Reynold’s favor. Thankfully, some test footage leaked, which fans ate up and forced the studio to make this film happen — and you’ll be happy it did. Make no mistake, there is no way to be prepared for what filmmaker Tim Miller (visual effects guru for Scott Pilgrim vs. the World) and Co. serve up. Everyone involved was bound and determined to honor their promise of redefining a genre, and they have. Most movies aim to entertain, but Deadpool wants to bring out your inner 9-

year old child, seasoned with a few drops of blood and big-boy words. Based on a script penned by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick (Zombieland), this nonlinear comic book adaptation recounts the life and times of one Wade Wilson (Reynolds), a blabbermouthed ex-Special Forces operative turned sociopathic mercenary who finds his world forever changed when he meets the beautiful Vanessa (Morena Baccarin). Vanessa is a prostitute whose life is as dark and twisted as Wade’s, so the stars align and fireworks pop, of course. However, as Deadpool says in the film’s opening, this isn’t a happygo-lucky movie by any means — tragedy strikes and it ain’t pretty for our lovebirds. Wade learns he has late-stage cancer and starts questioning whether he should leave and spare Vanessa the pain of watch-

ing him wither and die. Coincidentally, Wade discovers a mysterious offer on the table from a stranger: Join a program that will rid him of his cancer and replace sickness with superhuman abilities. It wouldn’t be much of a movie if he said no, so Wade naturally accepts the offer, things go poorly, and presto — it’s time for his bloodthirsty revenge! With this ridiculous a concept, the best way to approach it is to have fun, and Deadpool’s tongue is pressed firmly in its metaphorical cheek. If you’ve seen the many self-aware and wholly irreverent advertisements for the film, you may have an inkling of what you’re in for. As proven with films such as Iron Man and Guardians of the Galaxy, humor goes a very long way in the modern superhero movie, and Deadpool keeps its humor at the maximum level. The way Reynolds’

Deadpool Rated R, 108 minutes. Opens Friday.

titular character prattles on, breaks the fourth wall and makes jokes about the film studio’s poor past grasp of his character (yes, they do that in the movie), you’d think some jokes would fail to land, but the hit-tomiss ratio is impressive. Deadpool is a big bowl of awesome. It doesn’t just dazzle, it tractor-beams you into its outrageous wave of horseplay, proving that with the properly spun formula and apt talent, blockcan busters still be done right.
