THE BULLHORN

Hope and Disappointment 0G 2=@/6 @=A3<

AEL DAYAN, daughter of Gen. Moshe Dayan and a formidable member of one of Israel’s most inf luential families in her own right, recently spoke to a large audience at Temple Beth El in Aptos. Yael is an author, an activist for minority rights and a former Knesset member now on the city council of Tel Aviv-Jaffa. She is a longtime promoter of civil rights for all Israeli citizens, especially women, LGBT persons and Palestinians in Israel. She also supports Palestinians in occupied Palestine, as a member of both Women in Black and Peace Now. When Yael spoke to a rapt audience of over 200 Temple Beth El members and their friends, she warned against those who say any action is justified because Israel’s survival is precarious. She proudly stated that Israel has a strong military and its survival is not in doubt. Yael expressed concern about many of Israel’s policies, feeling that they are not aligned with Jewish principles. She explained that in the years following the 1967 War and the conquest of East Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza, many Israelis were sure that the land would be exchanged for peace. Her conviction is that Israel must exchange land for peace with its neighbors, including the Palestinians who have been unjustly treated for so long. For me, and many others in attendance, it was exhilarating to hear an Israeli politician clearly state that East Jerusalem must be part of a new Palestinian state and that the West Bank and control of Gaza must be relinquished, with negotiations to exchange some West Bank areas for land within the 1967 borders. Listening to Yael Dayan’s vision, and knowing that it came from an insider in Israel, gave many of us a sense of hope. Now that rosy glow has dissipated. The facts on the ground, and on the water, have proved that Israel is in the hands of people who feel that pre-emptive force, violence and propaganda are the way to ensure security. The Netanyahu government OKed the attack on the Free Gaza Flotilla, an attack that took place in international waters and left nine dead and dozens more wounded. Many knowledgeable experts say that constantly supporting Israel’s belligerent policies is highly dangerous to Israel and U.S. interests because it increases Israel’s unrealistic reliance on militarism. It is not only Israel, Palestinians, U.S. interests and people sailing against the Gaza blockade who are at risk. Abetting Israeli isolationism and its proclivity for preemptive strikes is rash in the extreme because Israel is known to have nuclear weapons. U.S. policy must take into account the possibility that an irresponsible Israeli government might use these weapons. Yet the Obama administration does not seem to be setting any curbs on Israel’s consistent reliance on military solutions. When I hear Israeli peace activists speak, they call on Americans to convince Congress and the president to put clear conditions on aid to Israel. This is what Yael Dayan called for when she spoke at Temple Beth El. It is what wiser minds than mine see as the responsible course. DORAH ROSEN is on the steering committee of the Resource Center for Nonviolence, working with their programs the Palestine-Israel Action Committee, Truth in Recruiting Network and the GI Rights Network Santa Cruz. She is also a member of Temple Beth El in Aptos.

Reality Bites Santa Cruz has more than its share of reality TV stars. The most famous, of course, is :3F D/< 23< 03@563, who rocked the third season of Survivor so hard he made Season 8’s All-Star cast. There was also the bluegrass-pickin’ /00=BB 4/;7:G, who starred in an episode of Trading Spouses in 2004. Add to this proud lineage B/H, brawling orange tabby of Opal Cliffs, and the family of B3@@G /<2 :=@</ 1/;>7=<. They star in an upcoming episode of Animal Planet’s Housecat Housecalls, described as “Supernanny for cats.� As the comparison implies, Taz had issues. A horrific car accident had left him minus a hip, but even so, he was a 20-pound bruiser with loads of ’tude. And in the space of a few years, the feline population of the Campion household had grown from one to five, including three exotics descended from wild Asian tree leopards. Big Taz was bent. “Now, Taz hates all these new cats,� says Terry Campion. “He would growl and lunge at ’em and chase ’em around. And all the cats were getting stressed out. And when cats are stressed out they spray and pee and everyone wants to mark their territory.� That stinks. But fate came knocking in the form of an email to Campion’s longtime associates at Santa Cruz Skateboards: a new TV show was looking for people in the board industry with cat problems. As owner of the Santa Cruz Boardroom, Campion qualified, and soon enough his phone was ringing. In no time the fetching feline behavioral expert Dr. 9/B@7</ E/@@3< was on the scene, along with an army of crew members. They returned three times to film. “Corralling cats for a TV show? Good luck,� says Campion. “It’s easy to say your lines, but to get a cat to do so anything for you is virtually impossible. It takes an amazing amount of patience.� We won’t ruin the ending—you’ll have to watch Saturday, July 3, at 10:30am or Sunday, July 4, at 8am—but here’s a hint. Says Campion of his formerly tetchy tom: “Last night he was asleep on my lap.�

Runoff Rundown After the ďŹ nal tally came in on Friday, Republican Assemblymember A/; 0:/93A:33 didn’t manage to cross the 50 percent threshold needed to give him the District 15 Senate seat outright. There was a brief window last week, as workers sorted through the last 17,000 mail-in and provisional ballots, when it was statistically possible for him to clinch it, but by Friday, the ďŹ nal count gave him 49.49 percent to Former-District 27 Assemblymember

8=6< :/7@2’s 41.73 percent. Blakeslee will face Laird, and long-shot candidates 87; 47BH53@/:2 and ;/@9 67<9:3, in an Aug. 15 runoff. Independent Fitzgerald took 5.88 percent and Libertarian candidate Hinkle won 2.89 percent of the pie, and it’s hard not to notice that if those votes had gone to Laird, he would have sailed into the seat with 50.5 percent.

‘For the run-off election we’ll ďŹ nally have a level playing ďŹ eld . . . without an election date devised by the Governor to confuse voters’ JOHN LAIRD The candidates carried the parts of the weirdly shaped district as expected—Laird prevailed in Santa Cruz and Monterey counties, while Blakeslee took San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara. The part of Santa Clara County in District 15—including bits of Los Gatos, Almaden, Saratoga and Monte Sereno—considered to be a bit of a swing district, ultimately swung slightly for Blakeslee. And while Laird picked up strong Santa Cruz support, the turnout was the lowest of all ďŹ ve counties— only 27.85 percent as opposed to 37.87 in San Luis Obispo. “For the run-off election we’ll ďŹ nally have a level playing ďŹ eld . . . without an election date devised by the Governor to confuse voters,â€? wrote Laird in a statement released Friday afternoon. “We now have time to take our message to voters and engage in a serious debate about the issues facing California and the 15th Senate District.â€? The key word there is “debateâ€?—Laird said before June 22 that his opponent would not appear jointly with him, a luxury he said he would not allow Blakeslee in the lead up to the run-off. Sacramento will be watching the race closely, as a win for Laird means the Democrats would be a single vote away from a supermajority in the state Senate.

The high alcohol content is believed by many kombucha brewers to stem from a long shelf life; fermentation can sometimes continue inside the container, producing more and more alcohol as the bottle sits, making aged kombucha boozy kombucha. Since the dust-up began, New Leaf has said it would use up its remaining stock of unpasteurized kombucha, then follow Whole Foods’ lead with a temporary prohibition. Local grocers Staff of Life and Shopper’s Corner are taking a more defiant approach and still selling whatever they can get their hands on until an actual recall is ordered—although with United Natural Foods, the nation’s largest distributor of kombucha, holding out, what they can get isn’t a whole lot. In San Jose, Cosentino’s Market on Bascom Avenue still carries the Honest T brand, and pasteurized kombucha is still available at all the stores—though pasteurization typically kills most of the coveted probiotic bacteria in the drink. Meanwhile, a rumor of the most bizarre order inserts none other

than actress Lindsay Lohan, an avid consumer of the product, into the mix and has some people calling her the “kombucha killer� (see sidebar, page 21). Managers at all the local grocers, however, have less interest in who killed the kombucha buzz than they do with getting it back on the shelves so customers can continue shoveling cash at them to buy it. “All we know is there is some issue with the amount of alcohol in it,� says Soquel Avenue Whole Foods Manager Leora Merwin. “We hope we can bring it back within a few weeks.�

Brew Crew For the few Santa Cruzans not hip to the kombucha jive, here’s the 411. Kombucha is, quite literally, fermented tea. It traces its roots back to ancient China, Russia or Japan, depending on who’s asked, and is made by plopping a thick, slimy mass of yeast and bacteria called a “mushroomâ€? or a “motherâ€? on top of a container of black or green tea, ¨

GOOGLE search for the words “Lindsay Lohan kombuchaâ€? brings up a glut of articles and blog posts from news sites like Huffington Post, TMZ and New York Daily News with titles like “Did Kombucha Tea Set Off Lindsay Lohan’s SCRAM?â€? and “Lindsay Lohan boozing it up with Kombucha tea?!â€? The articles point to a June 6 incident when the actress’s legally ordered alcohol monitoring anklet, or “SCRAMâ€? device, which monitors alcohol consumption through sweat, went off during an after-party for the MTV Movie Awards, automatically triggering a warrant for her arrest. Lohan, who is on probation for a 2007 DUI conviction and barred from booze, vehemently denied drinking alcohol but can quite regularly be found clutching a bottle of kombucha. Though she never blamed the tea specifically for the ankle device’s reading and was later cleared by a judge, the timing of the violation and the FDA’s interest in kombucha’s alcohol content was too much for the scandal-starved blogosphere to let slip by. For a time even the break room at the downtown Santa Cruz New Leaf sported a photo of the troubled actress with the words “kombucha killerâ€? scrawled across it. Lohan’s manager Jason Weinberg did not return calls seeking comment, but New Leaf manager Amber Willis was happy to weigh in. “It’s a pretty crazy story,â€? she says, fighting off giggles. “I’m really not sure if it’s true, but you can see where it would come from.â€? Whether the Parent Trap–actress-turned-cocaine connoisseur-and-spray-tansaleswoman played any part in the government’s decision to investigate kombucha, the FDA wouldn’t say. And while kombucha makers like GT Dave of the Ăźber-popular GT brand says he hopes to have products back on shelves in “a matter of weeks,â€? other more dire prognoses are offered by consumers. “The companies need to hurry up and get this thing sorted out,â€? says Jeremy Blevin, a shopper at Staff of Life who’s come to pick through the remains of the kombucha stash. “Because if the government actually makes a recall, who knows when we’ll see it again.â€?

91 Years of Imagination even preventing cancer. These claims are largely unsubstantiated in scientific study, however, and one medical journal, Research in Complementary Medicine, even says that the product can cause “liver damage, metabolic acidosis and cutaneous anthrax infections.� That, however, hasn’t stopped the kombucha industry from exploding into what totaled $295 million in U.S. sales last year, according to market researcher SPINS Inc. In 2006, Adam Goodman opened Kombucha Botanica, Santa Cruz’s very own kombucha brewery. Goodman declined to comment for this article, though Alan Peterson, the grocery buyer at Shopper’s Corner, says that Goodman’s product is more trustworthy than others because it’s made locally and has less chance of sitting on a shelf or in a warehouse for extended periods of time, where it can continue to ferment and gain alcoholic potency. Regardless, Goodman did confirm that he has stopped filling orders for Kombucha Botanica for the time being. “Kombucha really benefits from buying local,� says Peterson. “We’re going to bring back a couple of our pasteurized kombuchas for a while to fill in what we can’t get. But we want to get all the brands back as soon as we can. I think our customers probably do too.� 0

E7:2 723/A Biographer James Haley illuminates Jack London’s passionate belief in socialism.

Multidimensional Man A new biography of Jack London maps the life and times of a complex figure 0G A3/< 1=<E3::

J

ACK LONDON is remembered today mainly for novels like Call of the Wild and White Fang, but he was more than a writer of great adventure tales, a point driven home by Western historian James L. Haley’s Wolf: The Lives of Jack London (Basic Books, 2010; $29.95 hardcover). Like scores of biographers before him, Haley follows one of America’s greatest writers from his illegitimate birth in San Francisco to his untimely death at his ranch in Sonoma County. What makes Haley’s Wolf different— and necessary—is that it reveals a Jack London who was many different things, and devotes attention to all of them. London’s part in the Klondike Gold Rush is recounted by Haley, as is the Pacific voyage of the Snark. Haley also discusses London’s major works and how they were colored by his experiences, but anyone looking for exhaustive literary analysis had best look elsewhere. This is a book about London’s life, or rather, his “lives.� To this end, each chapter represents a different facet of the man: “The Work Beast,� “The Prospector,� “The Celebrity� and so on. A precocious

child, a factory laborer, a social activist—London was all of these things as well as the author and adventurer of legend. He was also a man of contradictions. London wasn’t fond of alcohol, but virtually drank himself to death at the age of 40; he was a passionate socialist, yet spent his later life in luxury, attended by a Korean valet (who was eventually fired for failing to address London as “master�). Though clearly an admirer, Haley doesn’t neglect London’s unsavory side: his infidelity, his racism and at times, his mediocrity as a writer. London’s socialism, though forgotten by most, is especially important in Haley’s narrative. Having lived through the terrible depression of the 1890s, unemployed or fruitlessly toiling in factories, he knew firsthand the horrors of capitalism. Unfortunately, London was frustrated time and again by a public that his craved his fiction but greeted his political beliefs with apathy or outright hostility. Undeterred, he continued to expound the virtues of socialism, even stopping to lecture in Hawaii, Tahiti and Pago Pago during his 1907 cruise aboard the Snark.

Indeed, his “un-American activities� were such that the FBI opened a dossier on him years after his death. Haley greatly enriches the story by f leshing out London’s many friends, acquaintances and family members— people who helped shape his life, and in many cases are just as interesting as London himself. We meet Ina Coolbrith, the Oakland librarian (and later, poet laureate of California) who nurtured young London’s reading habits; Cloudesley Johns, the postmaster of a tiny Southern California outpost who became London’s first fan; and Charmian Kittredge, London’s typist, travel companion, boxing partner and second wife. Haley also shows readers the exciting stage on which most of Jack London’s life unfolded, that of turn-of-thecentury California. San Francisco was vastly different from today’s city, Oakland unrecognizably so. Bay Area towns like Vallejo and Benicia, which today are bloated suburban eyesores, were once colorful places populated by oyster pirates and “wharf rats.� Central Coast residents will find interest in Carmel-by-the-Sea’s early history as an artist colony. “The Crowd,� San Francisco’s clique of bohemian artists, to which London belonged, began relocating to Carmel in 1905 when rising rents forced them out of their old haunts. Coincidentally, the southward migration saved many from the great earthquake that struck the following year. London and Charmian, who traveled to the city to report on the disaster, had several close calls with the fire that raged in the quake’s aftermath. The description of Carmel is charming, with London and other members of the Crowd, including photographer Arnold Genthe and London’s intimate friend George Streling, gathering on the beach to sing songs and feast on abalone. London, however, never resided permanently in Carmel, preferring to stay with Charmian at Beauty Ranch near the town of Glen Ellen in Sonoma County, where he died in 1916. The site is now Jack London State Park. Charm aside, Wolf is detailed, balanced, and above all, timely. As the gap between rich and poor widens to its greatest extent since London’s time and the public is f leeced of billions by a new breed of robber baron, London remains a powerfully relevant figure, as much for his politics as for the greatness of his art. 0

(R; 120 min.) You might suspect a sequel from the title, but it’s just coincidence: Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky fits snugly into last year’s unrelated Coco Before Chanel. Chanel here is Anna Mouglalis, a knifelike, severe creature, with a wide scarlet mouth. The ChanelStravinsky love affair begins before World War I in Paris. Chanel goes to the ballet to see the debut of The Rite of Spring. The audience starts to riot. Stravinsky (Mads Mikkelsen) blames the dancers for not being able to move with the music. Sympathizing, Chanel invites Stravinsky and his equally poor family into her silk-lined chateau. Director Jan Kounen waltzes the camera around a plush house as Stravinsky pounds the keyboard and Chanel draws the composer closer to her. Love isn’t her sole occupation; she’s also supervising the creation of her namesake perfume. This olfactory task is hampered by the smell of burning emanating from Stravinsky’s wife (Yelena Morozova). From the art-nouveau

kaleidoscope titles to the nostril-flaring finish, Kounen presents a standard love triangle— rich-looking, spotless. It’s engrossing until it suddenly isn’t. (Opens Fri at the Nickelodeon.) (RvB) 1G@CA (R; 92 min.) The Duplass brothers have been forerunners in the indie game since their debut, The Puffy Chair, hit the scene in 2005. Now with Cyrus, they’ve officially entered the studio system. Their close-up documentary style remains intact, only it’s matured. Jay and Mark Duplass have retained what made their early films so endearing, but they have taken their storytelling to new levels. It’s a twist on the classic indie story of late. Down-and-out middle-aged guy John (John C. Reilly) has all but given up on the prospects of love. But then he meets Molly (Marisa Tomei). Things are finally looking up. Then he meets her son, Cyrus (Jonah Hill). Still in his 20s and living at home, his relationship with his mother is what you would call creepy. Hill’s portrayal of a sociopath intent on keeping the status quo is instantly classic. Reilly’s interplay with Hill is pitch perfect. The Duplass’ are skilled at capturing raw moments,

whether they are funny, sad or unbearable. (Opens Fri at the Nickelodeon.) (MM) 3C53<3 =<357<

Movie reviews by Sean Conwell, Traci Hukill, Martin Malloy, Richard von Busack and Christina Waters

“The Little Film That Could�—Raymond De Felitta’s film deserves the name; the tale has tallness as well as heart. It concerns a tangle of confusion hitting the Rizzos, a suburban family that doesn’t realize how extended it is. Andy Garcia excels as Vince, a prison guard from a hidden waterside enclave in the Bronx. On the job, Vince encounters his own son Tony (Steven Strait) from a long-ago affair in Jersey and he decides to bring Tony home to do some day-labor without telling his wife his true identity. But Vince has another secret: he’s been taking acting classes in Manhattan, without informing his hostile, lynx-eyed wife, Joyce (Julianne Margulies, never better). The rest of the family have secrets of their own: son Vince Jr. (Ezra Miller) is a chubby-chaser with eyes for the 400pound woman next door, and daughter Vivian (Dominik Garcia-Lorido) has been moonlighting as a stripper. The tangle of lies is resolved nicely. City Island has fine waterscapes; Emily Mortimer is very soulful as the acting partner with whom Vince shares a deepening friendship; the ageless Alan Arkin

has six very good scenes as a weary acting teacher who has seen generations of Brando imitators come and go. Provoking a family feud at a dinner table, or gazing at a BBW porn site as if it were the Holy Grail, Miller is also outstanding. (RvB) 3F7B B6@=C56 B63 574B A6=> (R;

87 min.) A highlight of film in 2010. The documentary’s actual subject isn’t street art per se, or even the career of the director, the elusive graffitist Banksy. Instead, director Banksy narrates a truelife parable about the career of a boutique owner named Thierry Guetta. Guetta is a friendly, muttonchopped (and slightly mutton-headed) L.A. boutique owner whose video documentation of a covert scene led to his becoming a celebrity artist named “Mr. Brainwash.� Banksy’s art has soul as well as easily accessible political content. He takes on well-guarded subjects of oppression, from the British pound note to the Israeli security wall. Exit Through the Gift Shop is about anonymous craftsmanship eclipsed by the sun-gun of self-publicity, of illegal attacks on consensus reality, elbowed aside

by fraudulence and hucksterism on a Dalilevel scale. Inevitably, hype, pandering and foolishness replaced the artist’s sacred tools of silence, exile and cunning. (RvB) 53B 67; B= B63 5@339 (R; 109 min.)

Russell Brand’s decadent rock star Aldous Snow proved popular enough in Forgetting Sarah Marshall that director Nicholas Stoller decided to make an entire film dedicated to him. Unfortunately, what made Jason Segel’s film such a success wasn’t solely Brand’s character. Get Him to the Greek sloppily copies Marshall with Jonah Hill in the title role as a record label intern acting as a babysitter for Snow. While there are definite laughs, it lacks the heart and soul its predecessor had in spades. Like any spin-off, it’s just a pale comparison of it’s original. Fortunately, Hill and Brand offer enough humor to make it a good second-class comedy. (MM) 5@=E< C>A (PG-13; 102 min.) Five friends who played basketball together in junior high (Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, Rob Schneider, David Spade and Kevin James) reunite after the death of their old coach. Deciding that adulthood shouldn’t prevent them from having fun like when they were kids, the group spends a rather immature 4th of July weekend together. 7@=< ;/< (PG-13; 125

min.) Struck by heavymetal poisoning from his atomic pacemaker, Tony Stark (a roguish Robert Downey Jr.) is besieged by enemies: a Russian ex-con with access to his technology (Mickey Rourke), a gladhanding competitor (Sam Rockwell) and last but not least the U.S. government. Despite a middle section that vamps for time, Jon Favreau is successful in making this an invigorating meld of screwball comedy and robot-fighting action; Scarlett Johansson is most decorative as the agent known elsewhere as Black Widow, and

Gwyneth Paltrow shows a nimbleness previously unseen (she has to act fast to get up to Downey’s speed). Broad, playful, well-cut and economically done, this movie isn’t just the first of the summer blockbusters—it’s the model for how they all should work. (RvB) 8=</6 63F (PG-13;

81 min.) The disfigured Western antihero from DC Comics arrives on the big screen in a film that combines gunslinging action with supernatural events. Starring Josh Brolin as Hex, Megan Fox as a saloon girl and John Malkovich as archvillain Quentin Turnbull, whom Hex is hired to hunt down. ;71;/1A (R; 105 min.)

A children’s movie for adults by Jean-Pierre Jeunet. Bazil (Dany Boon) was unmanned by the loss of his parents. At loose ends, Bazil is scooped up by a group of friendly scavengers at the dump. Giulietta Masina look-alike Julie Ferrier (doubled by contortionist Julia Gunthel) plays an Elastic Girl who keeps surprising us by unfolding out of nowhere. As a criminal with a good line of patter, JeanPierre Marielle has a Hugoesque story of how he escaped capital punishment. The gang decides to help him expose a pair of competing arms manufacturers: wealthy predators who have been selling weapons throughout Africa. Like Jacques Tati, Jeunet seeks out the old brown Paris, of canal bridges, railroad stations and elephantine 1950s factories. Despite the eye candy, this terminally cute clockwork toy is missing a mainspring. (RvB) =<27<3 (PG-13; 111 min.) This saltwater fairy tale by Neil Jordan (The Crying Game, Breakfast on Pluto) glistens with beautiful images, none more gorgeous than the opening shot of a solitary fisherman (Colin Farrell) gliding through the Irish coastal fog and drawing up his net to find it contains not

only fish but a woman as well. The sight of the lovely Ondine (Alicja Bachleda) curled up a la Klimt in a bed of silver fish is utterly primal. The fisherman brings her back to life and the neo-fairy-tale mystery quickens. Jordan’s smart script acquires sharp edges, both in its bone-dry humor and in its refusal to cave in to the sweetness of the story. When a villain shows up, the ensuing crisis is both rough and surprising, but the ending is pure fairy tales. (CW) >@7<13AA 9/7C:/<7

(PG; 130 min.) The true story of a Hawaiian princess (played by Q’Orianka Kilcher) and her struggle to maintain her nation’s freedom in the late 19th Century. After a childhood in Hawaii, Kaiulani is sent to Victorian England for her education. However, when she learns that an

American-backed coup d’Êtat has occurred in her homeland, she sets out to convince the United States to restore her kingdom. @=07< 6==2 (PG-13;

130 min.) Robin Hood looks like three long movies spliced into one unwieldy feature. This prequel concerns Robin’s involvement in the end of the crusades, the civil war and the little-known French invasion of England in the early 1200s. “Robin Longstride� (Russell Crowe) decamps from Richard the Lionheart’s army and goes into the countryside to pose as a dead knight; the fatherin-law of the deceased (Max von Sydow) decides to do a Martin Guerre on this imposter, as does the widow Marian (Cate Blanchett in a wig nearly as tall as she is). This has to be the least-sylvan Robin Hood ever made. Crowe looks

less like a fox and more like a logy, depressed pit bull as the film tries to chug around him with more montages of burning villages and more meetings of angry Plantagenets. (RvB) B63 A31@3B 7< B637@ 3G3A (R; 127

min.) Elegant but staid murder mystery nibbles around the edges of the Dirty War, the search for justice evaporating in 1974 Buenos Aires, with present-day sequences to frame a reopened investigator. It’s leavened by a fine Mulder and Scully anti-romance between an attractive female criminal investigator for the government, Irene (Soledad Villamil), and her attractively crumbling, Mastroiannish male assistant, Benjamin (Ricardo Darín). Director Juan Jose Campanella is a regular director of House

M.D. The film is as restless and jokey as a cop procedural show; every scene is on the mark, but there aren’t enough counterpoints to the assured flow of the story. Villamil, an assured 40ish beauty, is the secret in this movie’s success; her covert smile is the film’s signature piece. It won the Oscar for best foreign film. (RvB) A=:7B/@G ;/< (R; 90 min.) Michael Douglas plays Ben Kalman, formerly the owner of a successful car dealership. He is a master salesman, but his ethical lapses have ruined his personal relationships and his business. Ben has a chance to make things right by escorting his girlfriend’s daughter to a college interview, but due to his usual indiscretions, things are soon falling apart. B=G AB=@G ! (G; 108 min.) Sit through

the pretty ordinary grabber sequence at the beginning of the film—a frontier adventure with a runaway train—because once this latest Pixar effort gets started, it’s perfection. Woody (Tom Hanks), the toy-size avatar of a cinematic century’s worth of action heroes, is the lone skeptic when the rest of the gang is donated to a seemingly wonderful day-care center run by a too-friendly huggy bear (Ned Beatty). What transpires is a Great Escape parody that is less a joke and more like a captivating (and terrifying) new version of an old myth. Things get very heavy indeed; these talking walking toys end up on the edge of extinction, which is why the seasoned professionals doing the voice acting add the right note of mortality to this sequel. A stunner,

all told, in color, action, humor and serious underpinnings. (RvB) E7<B3@¸A 0=<3

(R; 100 min.) The melodrama-free indie movie Winter’s Bone is like a Little Red Riding Hood story in which there’s nothing but wolves. In the outlaw culture of the Ozarks sprawling clans evade the law and deal out their own kind of justice. Adapted from Daniel Woodrell’s novel, Debra Granik’s spare, gripping film concerns 17-year-old Ree Dolly (a thoroughly believable Jennifer Lawrence) and her search for a father who has vanished. Winter’s Bone stays mysterious, even as it strays close to documentary. Lawrence’s own fierceness gives this survival story the kind of immediacy that the summer’s action movies can only grope at.

Astrology Free Will

By Rob Brezsny

For the week of June 30 /@73A (March 21–April 19): How well are you capitalizing on this year’s unique opportunities, Aries? Since we’re halfway through 2010, let’s take an inventory. I’m hoping you’re well underway in the heroic task of conquering your past. It has been and will continue to be prime time for you to wean yourself from unresolvable energy-drains. So exorcise irksome ghosts, please! Pay off ancient debts! Free yourself from memories that don’t serve you! You’re finally ready to graduate from lessons you’ve had to learn and relearn and re-relearn. The coming months will bring you even more opportunities to finish up old business that has demanded too much of your time and energy. B/C@CA (April 20–May 20): Now that we’re midway through 2010, it’s time to assess how well you’re taking advantage of this year’s good fortune. So let me ask you, Taurus: Have you been expanding your web of connections? Have you honed and deepened your networking skills? Have you taken bold steps to refine your inf luence over the way your team or crew or gang is evolving? The first half of the year has been full of encouragement in these areas, and the coming months will be even more so. 53;7<7 (May 21–June 20): How well have you been attending to 2010’s major themes, Gemini? Since we’re midway through the year, let’s do a checkin. I hope that by now you are at least 15 percent sturdier, stronger, and braver than you’ve ever been in your entire life, and at least 20 percent better organized and disciplined. I hope that you have outgrown one of your amateur approaches and claimed a new professional privilege. Now write the following questions on a slip of paper that you will leave taped to your mirror for the next six months. “1. How can I get closer to making my job and my vocation be the same thing? 2. What am I doing to become an even more robust and confident version of myself ?�

1/<13@ (June 21–July 22): Let’s do a checkin on your progress so far in 2010, Cancerian. The year’s half over, and I’m wondering if you’ve been cashing in on the unique invitations that life has been sending your way. The way I understand it, you’ve been summoned to emerge from your hiding place and go wandering around in exotic and unfamiliar places. Events that in the past may have turned you inward toward thoughts of safety have in recent months nudged you out in the direction of the Great Unknown. Have you been honest enough with yourself to recognize the call to adventure? Have you been wild and free enough to answer the call? If not, I suggest you find it in yourself to do so. The next six months will be prime time to head out on a glorious quest. :3= (July 23–Aug. 22): The year’s half over, Leo. Let’s take an inventory to see whether you’ve been taking maximum advantage of the special opportunities life has been offering you. Consider these questions: Has the quality of your intimate alliances become especially intense, invigorating, and catalytic in recent months? Have you created lots of small miracles with the people you care about most? Have you been willing to risk more to get the most out of togetherness, even if it means dealing with shadowy stuff that makes you uncomfortable? If there has been anything missing from your efforts in these heroic tasks, get to work. Between now and January 2011, you’ll have a mandate to go even deeper than you have since January 2010. D7@5= (Aug. 23–Sept. 22): So how is 2010 going for you so far, Virgo? Have you been taking advantage of life’s offers to help you move into a dynamic new phase of your relationship life? Have you been willing to set aside tired old strategies for seeking intimacy so that you can discover approaches you’ve never imagined before? Have you been brave about overcoming the past traumas and hurts that scared you into accepting less than the very best alliances you could seek? I hope you’ve been pursuing these improvements, because this is the best year in over a decade to accomplish them. :70@/ (Sept. 23–Oct. 22): Have you been doing a lot of sweating and grunting from sheer exertion in 2010? Have you thrown yourself conscientiously into the hardest, smartest labor you’ve ever enjoyed? I hope so, because that would suggest you’re in rapt alignment with this year’s cosmic rhythms. It

would mean that you have been cashing in on the rather sublime opportunities you’re being offered to diligently prove how much you love your life. The next six months will provide you with even more and better prods, Libra, so please find even deeper reserves of determination. Intensify your commitment to mastering the work you came to this planet to do.

A1=@>7= (Oct. 23–Nov. 21): How’s that project coming, Scorpio? You know, that assignment the universe gave you at the beginning of 2010 to loosen up, play more, and periodically laugh like a tipsy Sagittarius. Have you been taking a sabbatical from the seething complications that in most other years are your rightful specialty? Did you throw some of your emotional baggage off a cliff ? Are you dancing more frequently? I hope you’ve been attending to all of this crucial work, and I trust that you’re primed to do even more of it during the next six months. To take maximum advantage of your appointments with relief and release, you’ll have to be even sweeter and lighter.

A/57BB/@7CA (Nov. 22–Dec. 21): Are you a dynamic bastion of stability yet, Sagittarius? Have you been growing deeper and deeper roots as you bloom in your power spot? Are you continuing to build your self-mastery as you draw abundant sustenance from the mother lode? You’re halfway through 2010, the year when these wonders should be unfolding with majestic drama. The best is yet to come, so I recommend that you declare your intention to make the next six months be a time when you come all the way home. 1/>@71=@< (Dec. 22–Jan. 19): What are the toughest pairs of opposites in your life, Capricorn? What are the polarities whose different sides rarely resonate with each other and too often threaten to split you in half ? One of the distinguishing characteristics of 2010 is the fact that you are getting unprecedented chances to bring them together in ringing harmony, or at least a more interesting tension. What have you learned so far about how to work that magic? And how can you apply it in even craftier ways during the next six months?

/?C/@7CA (Jan. 20–Feb. 18): You may still be gnawed by a longing for your life to be different from what it is. You might fantasize that you’re missing a crucial element that would, if acquired, usher you into a Golden Age. But I’ve been analyzing the big picture of your destiny, Aquarius, and here’s what I see: This year you’re being offered the chance to be pretty satisfied with the messy, ambiguous, fantastically rich set of circumstances that you’ve actually been blessed with. The first half of 2010 should have inspired you to flirt with this surprising truth. The second half will drive it home with the force of a pile of gifts left anonymously on your doorstep. >7A13A (Feb. 19–March 20): The journal Nature recently marked the tenth anniversary of a great scientific triumph: the complete mapping of the human genome. There was a cloud over the celebration, however, because few practical health benefits have yet to come out of this revolutionary accomplishment. It has proved unexpectedly hard to translate the deciphered code into cures for diseases. I offer this situation as a cautionary tale for you, Pisces. The first part of 2010 has brought you several important discoveries and breakthroughs. In the coming months, even as the novelties continue to f low, it’ll be your sacred duty to put them to use in ways that will permanently improve your day—today life. Unlike the case of the human genome, your work should meet with success. 6][Se]`Y( ES¸`S VOZTeOg bV`]cUV E`WbS O `S^]`b OP]cb V]e g]c` PWU ^`]XSQba T]` bVS gSO` O`S ^`]U`SaaW\U BSabWTg Ob B`cbV`]]abS`.U[OWZ Q][ Go to @3/:/AB@=:=5G 1=; to check out Rob Brezsny’s Expanded Weekly Audio Horoscopes and Daily Text Message Horoscopes.
