Great characters make for quite a ‘Tale’ British director Michael Powell and Hungarian screenwriter Emeric Pressburger, an unlikely duo known as The Archers, gave us classics like “The Red Shoes,� “Black Narcissus� and 1944’s “A Canterbury Tale,� a wonderful updating of Chaucer’s stories meant to lift England’s spirit during World War II. Our story takes place near Canterbury, where we meet American soldier Bob Johnson (real-life U.S. Army Sergeant John Sweet) who mistakenly gets off his train a few miles short of his Canterbury destination, at the quaint little village of Chillingbourne. He finds new friends in British officer Peter Gibbs (Dennis Price), and Allison Smith (Sheila Sim), a plucky young “Land Girl.�

The war has left them all a bit lost. Gibbs, a sensitive soul, misses his civilian job playing the organ in theaters and longs for music

again. Allison desperately misses her fiancĂŠ, a pilot whose plane was shot down a few months earlier.

Since it’s late at night, Gibbs and Johnson insist on walking her to Town Hall to check in, but on the way there she’s mysteriously attacked by Chillingbourne’s infamous “Glue Man,� who pours glue on his victim’s heads.

With the help of Gibbs and Johnson, Allison seeks to solve the mystery of the Glue Man. While the Glue Man subplot is pretty bizarre, the delight of “A Canterbury Tale� comes not from plot but from its rich country characters, breathtaking scenery, and the quiet message of hope.

Loved spinster farmer Miss Foster (Jane Millican) in her weird farming clothes, the little kid’s army, and

the unexpected camera shots, like Leslie’s first appearance on the hay wagon and the seamless transition from the soaring hawk to the airplane.

Sheila Sim is marvelous as Allison and could have had a good career in Hollywood but chose to stay in the theater, marry Richard Attenborough and have three children instead.

While John Sweet is obviously not a professional actor (he was cast after Powell saw him in an amateur production of “Our Town�), there’s a sweetness and honesty about his performance that’s quite engaging; loved it when he tells Allison about his lost love.

It’s a testament to Powell and Pressburger’s talent as filmmakers that “A Canterbury Tale� — a 67year-old, black-and-white movie starring no one you’ve ever heard of — remains as powerful today as it did back then. Check it out!

RIFF REPORT

U.S. Royalty Keeps Rock ‘n’ Roll Alive

PopMatters.com

U.S. Royalty ‘Mirrors’ (Family Records) Last week, while up-and-coming Washington, D.C.-based band U.S. Royalty was opening up for headliner Third Eye Blind at the Diamond Ballroom, I had a revelation — rock ‘n’ roll is not dead.

No, if U.S. “Bloody” Royalty (to quote the slogan on the drummer’s bass drum) are to be taken into account, then rock does still have a semblance of a heartbeat — and a heart.

And before any of you say, ‘Well, what about “X” band or “so-and-so” I’m going to probably tell you it’s whiny crap with no real heart and soul. No pulse, ya dig? Now, there are some exceptions out there, including Portugal, The Man, The Decemberists and a few others.

So, standing around, waiting for ’90s has-beens Third Eye Blind to take the stage, opening act U.S. Royalty takes to the stage — young faces (and a few older) crowd around — and proceeds to play a tight, entertaining and completely earnest set. Far too short, I might add.

Needless to say, I was hooked.

Yeah, singer John Thornley, guitar-

slinging brother Paul Thornley, bassist Jacob Michael and drummer Luke Adams put music out that could easily go the emo route. Instead, the D.C. boys kick things up a notch and add some rockin’ spice to their sound.

Interested in learning more about this band that opted not to take the hard road (like so many D.C. bands eager to prove something), I found that U.S. Royalty embraced the music of their parents — Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles, ’60s and ’70s pop-rock — and it works incredibly well on their entirely accessible debut album, “Mirrors.”

This is a follow-up to their EP “Midsommar.”

There’s a big-sky feel to the instru-

mental “The Mirror,” quickly followed by the slinky, sassy groove of “Hollywood Hollows.” You’ll feel transformed back to 1973 without feeling like things are dated and/or stale.

With the strum of an indie-pop acoustic guitar, followed by some heavier chords from Paul Thornley, “Monte Carlo” takes you on a breezy and galloping trip back to “Rumours”-era Fleetwood Mac while keeping the swagger and attitude firmly in 2011. Even those airy, U2-esque background vocals work. “Monte Carlo” is easily the best tune of the year.

Looking for more hooks? Check out “Fool to Love (Like I Do)” or “Equestrian” and you’ll walk away smiling.

There’s a dreamy quality to the basic folk-pop of “Old Flames” and “Voice Memo” that is bound to appeal to folkies and romanticists alike while “The Desert Won’t Save You” has a wide-sweeping feel that takes you on a western journey of the spaghetti variety.

Eat up, pardner!

For a guy approaching 40, it’s exciting to happen across a young and upand-coming band like U.S. Royalty.

Blueprint’s ‘Adventures’ challenges hip hop conventions Blueprint ‘Adventures in the Counter Culture’ (Rhymesayers Entertainment) Blueprint’s government name is Albert Shepard. He’s from Columbus, Ohio and his first hip hop recording in 1999, followed by several more were with the Greenhouse Effect collective.

“Adventures in the Counter Culture” is his eighth disc as a solo artist. It’s a record that will challenge conventions of the genre.

Early in the album, “My Culture” scorns the idea of

only rapping about material things and success with no knowledge of what’s happening globally or even here at home in the U.S. “Look around you, we living in some troubling time,”

Blueprint warns.

The musicality of “So Alive,” with its haiku-like lyrics, is an extraordinary interlude of voice and instrumentation. “Stole Our Yesterday” follows an old man through his day of smoking a Newport, listening to his favorite cassette in a Delta 88 and cashing a check at the bank where they tell him “… He can check his account balance online.” It’s a poignant, backward glance, asking if modernization is actually progress.

It’s Blueprint’s dilemma, explored later that honesty in music is rarely what’s heard on the radio. “RadioInactive” ends with a long out-take of children’s voices on a playground that gradually dissolves into gentle guitar and the next tune “Welcome Home.”

As noted earlier, this is not Clear Channel hip hop. It’s an adventure with one of our culture’s vibrant young artists who rejects being a commercial clone. It’s a wonderful thing that he does.

Lady Gaga “Born This Way” I don’t think anyone will be surprised if the biggest modern pop celebrity delivers the No. 1-selling album of the year, especially with the lead single “Born This Way” reaching one million in sales faster than any song in US history.

Even if you don’t buy the record, you’ll know the songs, as these tunes will be ubiquitous this year.

— Sarah Zupko

Vieux Farka Toure “The Secret” At this point, Vieux Farka Toure is very much his own man as a musician and recording artist, which is an astonishing thing to say about someone whose career has been so short and whose father was so dominant in the field.

It’s exciting to wonder where his creativity and talent will take him next. Judging from this release, it could be anywhere. — David Maine

Amon Tobin “ISAM” More than any other electronic producer of the past decade, Amon Tobin’s music goes places. After four years of work, Tobin returns with the most forward-thinking electronic album you’re likely to hear for quite some time: the stunning “ISAM.” — Joe Lambert

Poet seeks peace, change through spoken word

By Kendall Brown Arts and Entertainment Writer

When you say “poetry,” many imagine musty classrooms, soul- and creativityrestricting desks and draconian Shakespearean form. Ask someone when he or she last wrote a poem, and you’re likely to recieve hard looks and tales of ruler-snapping English teachers peering over hornrimmed glasses as they chant the merits of iambic pentamiter.

That isn’t Lauren Zuniga’s poetry. A poet living in Oklahoma City, she writes the kind of poetry that opens doors and windows to let breezes into those musty classrooms.

Read Zuniga’s work, and you’re likely to find yourself with the urge to stand on the street corner passing out blankets to the homeless or walk barefoot through a grassy field just for the pleasure of how it feels between your toes.

Listen to one of her CDs, and you’ll be left wondering why you have the faint taste of Indian safron on your tongue and the echo of djembe drum beats in your ears. Zuniga’s poetry will take you places.

Zuniga practices slam poetry, an artform that is quickly growing in popularity across the state. At a poetry slam, artists perform spoken-word poetry, and randomly selected members of the audience give them a numeric score.

From the moment she began performing, Zuniga made a mark on the poetry slam circuit.

“When I was 18, I start-

ed rapping,” Zuniga said.

“I went to a poetry reading and did rap and they told me, ‘You know, you’d probably be into slam.’ So I went back the next week when they were having a slam and did a poem and I won. It was the first time I felt like I had my own art form.”

From that moment on, Zuniga was hooked. In high school, she found herself immersed in the party scene with no real outlet for her emotions.

“I was a party girl, I was kind of out of control with the drugs and all of that,” Zuniga said. “When I got into poetry, I just stopped all that. I didn’t need it anymore.”

At first, she wrote purely

about her life. For her art, nothing is off limits. She has written extensively about falling in love, going through her divorce and the bond she feels with her two children. It was a job that made her poetry begin to take a turn toward social activism, however. Zuniga worked for four years at the state Capitol, often fielding phone calls from people from the opposite end of the political spectrum.

During her time there, Oklahoma passed legislation banning Sharia law.

“I was so overwhelmed when the election results came in and people passed all this ridiculous legislation,” Zuniga said. “We have people that are hun-

gry and don’t have healthcare and don’t have basic needs, and we’re trying to pass laws that don’t even affect us. It just infuriated me that they were able to convince that many people.”

Zuniga went on to write two poems titled “To the Oklahoma Lawmakers” and “To the Oklahoma Progressives Plotting Mass Exodus.” The first was her response to legislation requiring that women in Oklahoma receive an ultrasound and listen to the baby’s heartbeat before receiving an abortion. The latter was her plea both to other progressives in Oklahoma and to herself to not flee Oklahoma for more liberal land.

“I wrote that poem really to convince myself to stay,” Zuniga said. “It took awhile for me to feel comfortable using art as activism. I used to not do anything political because I felt like it would divide people. I thought, ‘I don’t want to be in a room of strangers and make them hate me.’ And that’s the easy way out.”

Since then, Zuniga has made the decision to continue to stay and create in Oklahoma. She has also begun to help others in the area find their creative voices through programs she has started for both youth and adults. She helped found the “Visionary Artist Series,” hosted monthly at Urban

Roots in Oklahoma City.

The program brings in artists to perform and speak about their art, creating a dialogue about creativity for the public.

Zuniga also started a program geared toward introducing spoken-word poetry to youth in Oklahoma. Oklahoma Young Writers is a series of free poetry workshops hosted every Sunday at the Oklahoma City Public Library. Anyone is welcome to attend, but Zuniga said they especially gear the program toward youth ages 13 to 19. She hopes that through the program a youth poetry slam will take form for the National Poetry Slam held annually.

“I have dreams about reaching that one kid in some rural town in Oklahoma that has never heard anything like slam poetry and never believed he or she could do something like that and empowering them to do that,” Zuniga said.

Ultimately, Zuniga hopes that her work will reach as many people as possible and help foster a conversation and a creative community.

“Art is the most human and intimate thing that we do,” she said. “You find out how similar we all are.

I just want to be able to create and share what I create.”

Zuniga’s work, both in written and recorded form, is available through her website, www.laurenzuniga.com, or for selective purchase on iTunes.

‘A Benediction for Hustlers and Gardeners’

By Lauren Zuniga

When you were 18, you thought you’d be famous before you were 21.

You won all the seed spitting contests.

Carried matchsticks and strobe lights in your briefcase.

Everywhere you went, you were like “OMG! Check this out.”

We were all pretty sure, you were going to be the hottest thing since Dr. Dre or pomegranate juice.

We’d see you float up to the spot in your platinum canoe and scribble autographs on the curling bark of willing girls.

You’re 27 now, still selling ideas out of your basement.

You’re 31 now, still punching clocks in the thick noon of the day You’re 42 now, still hoping for lava to pour out of traffic lights.

You’re too old for all this, you say, after three graveyard shifts at the Light Bulb Farm, followed by 8 a.m. at the Grown-Up Factory.

You used all your vacation time, scattering megaphones along the highway, and sleeping on crusty motel beds in Iowa.

You wear your business plan on a chain around your neck and call it grown folk’s bling.

Some days it feels like you are too tall for these carnival rides. All their sick flash and cat calls.

It would be so much easier, if you could just wear Hawaiian shirts to work on Friday and get giddy about good lumbar support and ergonomic arm rests.

You could trade in your chrome rimmed tractor for a steady pension and call it a day.

But deep down you know This is the only thing you are here to do. and THIS is your year. Something is about to happen for you.

Lauren Zuniga practices slam poetry, an artform that is quickly growing in popularity across Oklahoma.

You are right! But this quitting-five-minutes-before-the-miracle business is a load of mule feed.

The miracle is already happening.

The miracle is that you wake up every morning with art in your eardrums, you compose gorgeous at the gas pump, drop mulch in the checkout lane.

You blink with more passion than some people make love with.

This IS your year. The spring is so ripe with your takeover that the moon had to get closer to the earth than it ever has, just to get a whiff of you.

You are a wild windmill, in a field of oil rigs.

You are the only thing that will keep us moving.

So you better stay up on your grind. Let that flour billow up and dust our cheeks.

Let the ghosts of couches and TVs haunt the music out of you.

Let your throat be a hollow gourd.

Let the seeds you’ve been spitting all these years, take root and cover the earth with your purpose.

Let your fists rip out any weed that intrudes on your soil.

Let your shoulders not give out.

Let the Naysayers not tear you down.

Let the exact right people find you, at the exact right time.

Let your bass kick us in our sleep, Wake us in our stomach.

Give us slow food movement with quick wit service.

Let us remember VIDEO that when one of us creates. another is created Watch poet Lauren Zuniga perform Photo Provided Let us remember when one of us quits planting, none of us can be bloombox.

‘Kung Fu Panda 2’

By Betsy Sharkey Los Angeles Times

When we last saw Po, he was still honing all the right moves. As “Panda 2” opens, he’s gotten a lot better. Word comes to the Valley of Peace telling of the rise of Lord Shen, Gary Oldman as a peacock whose mommy-and-daddy issues have his feathers in a twist. He has developed weapons so brutal, cannons so incredible that it may spell the end of kung fu, to say nothing of an entire city, country and culture.

This is one bad dude.

The look itself is a visual mash-up that evokes a nostalgia for fairy tales and kung-fu fighting. What makes 3-D appealing in “Panda 2” is how deeply embedded it is within the film. It’s not just the random fireball being hurled right at us, but that the entire world of Po feels as if it has been carved out of space, rather than sketched out on a page.

There is a price to be paid for the visual razzledazzle — wonderful complexity against a simple story that could have benefitted from some bulking up (layered, not longer).
