Amid the throngs of children flocking to enroll for school at the Kenyan government;’s announcement of a “free education for all,” the 84-year-old Kimani Ng’ang’a Maruge (Oliver Litondo) sticks out like a sore thumb. Unsurprisingly, Maruge is viewed with apprehension by the school’s headmaster, Jane Obinchu (Naomie Harris), when he tells her that he has taken the government’s promise of a “free education for all” quite literally and would like to be enrolled in first grade so that he can learn how to read. To his disappointment he is turned away, but he remains undeterred. Having been a part of the Mau Mau uprising against British Colonialism in the 1950s, Maruge will not be
denied any of his freedoms, knowledge or otherwise. When he is told that he cannot enroll due to his lack of a birth certificate, he produces one. When they say he cannot attend class without a proper school uniform, he turns up the next morning knocking on the school gate with a uniform he has sewn himself. Impressed by the old man’s tenacity and thirst for knowledge, Obinchu decides to grant Maruge admission. Together, Obinchu and Maruge face overwhelming opposition from every direction, including parents who don’t want precious school resources wasted on an old man
and government officials still clinging to the divisions of tribalism exploited by British Colonialism. They meet each challenge with optimism and perserverance. Directed by Justin Chadwick (“The Other Boleyn Girl”) from a script by Emmy-winner Ann Peacock (“The Chronicles of Narnia”), “The First Grader” is a docudrama of exceptional caliber. Lotindo’s performance as Maruge is heartfelt, and you can see the suffering he’s endured in his weathered eyes as he contemplates and remembers the tortures and heartache he endured in his youth during the fight for freedom. Special mention should also be given to cinematographer Rob Hardy, who works wonders to
help put the audience in the headspace of the troubled Maruge. Throughout the film, Hardy makes use of a very shallow depth of field and vignetting at the edges of the frame to give the audience the feeling of how this 84-year-old man might view the world around him. It’s no surprise that the film was co-produced by National Geographic Entertainment, because the highly saturated colors and strength of composition found in the cinematography of this film are incredibly evocative of the most poignant of National Geographic’s magazine images. “The First Grader” is an uplifting film that does an excellent job of expressing the universal importance of education and in particular, literacy. For as the real Kimani Ng’ang’a Maruge said, “The power is in the pen.”

MUSIC REVIEWS Steve Earle “I’ll Never Get Out of This World Alive” New West (2011)
With his 14th album, Steve Earle has crafted an album that is unassuming and remarkable all at the same time. And while Earle has been overtly political on albums of late (“Jerusalem,” “The Revolution Starts Now”), he keeps the overt politicism in check even though he could have easily hit listeners over the head with his leftist brand of politics. But Earle, whose last album was a tribute to the late Townes Van Zandt, is sticking to themes
he knows best. The finest moment on the TBone Burnett-produced “I’ll Never Get Out of This World Alive” is the song “The Gulf of Mexico.” Written like an Irish drinking song, it is a powerful song about three generations of men living on the mighty Gulf making their living through shrimping to driving crew boats to the current man who works on a rig until the night he “saw the devil crawlin’ from the hole / and he spilled the guts of hell out in the Gulf of Mexico.” No specific references to BP or the evils of Corporate America. Just a contemporary folk song — a slice of Americana, as it were — from a man who tends to take the
Black Lips “Arabia Mountain” Vice Records (2011)
Cover art for the Black Lips’ new release has elements reminiscent of the Rolling Stones’ 1967 album “Their Satanic Majesties Request.” The band sits together afloat in a surreal swirl of color and weird extras. It’s the first clue that the listener will be taking another wild musical trip with Atlanta’s bad boys of retro-tinged psychedelic pop. They’re the band who fled a 2009 festival in India to avoid detention after some sloppy spit swapping between band members on stage and an exposed penis or two. Black Lips are
known for their uninhibited live recitals. Unlike past odysseys such as tequila-soaked “Los Valientes Del Mundo Nuevo,” which was purportedly recorded live in a Tijuana club this one boasts Mark Ronson’s polished production on most compositions. The sweet thing about Black Lips is their continued homage to Sixties-era bubble
gum music. It’s absinthe-flavored, but bubble gum nonetheless. And for studio LP number 6 it’s generous, coming in at a full 16 tracks. “Modern Art” commemorates tripping at the Salvador Dali museum in St. Petersburg, Fl. Musically it rips and runs on a percussion stampede out the door. “Noc-A-Homa” takes a lyrical tomahawk to anyone who would disrespect the Atlanta Braves’ baseball team mascot. “Don’t Mess Up My Baby” shouldn’t be funny but you’ll split a gut. It admonishes a woman who has finished every controlled dangerous substance in the house to “Now settle down and have my children.” — Doug Hill

side of the marginalized and poor. Note the workin’ man (and woman) song “I Am a Wanderer” with it’s nice finger-picked acoustic guitar and pedal steel flourishes. A fine song from Earle’s vast catalog. And while we can be sure the
song “Little Emperor” was written (all the songs were written between late 2007 and late 2010) with George W. Bush in mind, a lot of it could be aimed at the current president as well, minus the “Daddy” and “shock and awe” references, of course. Let’s face it, Earle never liked Bush. One wonders, with the continuing wars and disasters if he’s a fan of ol’ Barry, more than two years in. There’s a spooky, swampy foreboding in the bluesy, harmonicadriven “Meet Me in the Alleyway.” A reflection, perhaps, of his time in gritty New Orleans. Then there are the more personal songs. Note the prayerful nature of “God Is God” or the absolutely stunning and beautiful
song “Every Part of Me,” a love song for wife and fellow singer Allison Moorer. And speaking of her, she appears on the folk-country track “Heaven and Hell.” It’s not an essential track but it’s nice to hear the couple singing together. It’s been a long time since the days “Copperhead Road” and “Guitar Town.” Earle has developed as a person and an artist and while he may not be nearly as accessible as he was two decades ago, he is far more respected in the world of musicians and writers. He may not be favored by flag-waving Nashville patriots but he is an American and deserves to be listened to. — Andrew W. Griffin
COVER STORY
Paseo brings mosaic of artists to OKC By Kendall Brown Pop Editor
F
rom May 28 through May 30, the Paseo Arts District in Oklahoma City was bursting at the seams with art, music and lively crowds. Some might claim this is always the case for the Paseo, but no one could argue that the Paseo Arts Festival didn’t generate a big turnout of artists and community supporters of the arts. Walking through the streets of the Paseo District during the festival, attendees were greeted with a colorful explosion of artwork of every medium. Vendors selling long, fluid strands of blown glass were set up next to vendors selling traditional oil paintings. Vendors selling culinary treats like fried chicken on a stick and the everpopular funnel cake were dotted throughout the festival. Especially popular this year were root beer, saspirilla, black cherry soda and other drinks sold in tin mugs. Two stages at the north and south ends of the festival grounds featured acts ranging from flamenco dancing to rock music. Both stages were extremely popular at the festival, with attendees stopping to sit and rest for awhile in the shade of the stages as they took in the music. Among the 80 registered visual artists at the Paseo Arts Festival, Norman was represented by jewelry artist Larry Tallent. Tallent has been
a jewelry artist for more than 30 years and supports himself and his craft by travelling the arts festival circuit. “I go to 18 to 20 festivals a year around the country,” Tallent said. “In Oklahoma, I go to probably four or five a year.” As a jewelry artist, Tallent is unique. His work is not mass produced, and each piece is selected and hand-crafted by Tallent himself. Although Tallent is extremely modest and retiscent to talk about the quality of his work, his daughter, Elizabeth Tallent, helps him sell his art and is very open about the quality she sees in her father’s work. “Lots of people will cast their jewelry,” Elizabeth said. “They’ll use a machine to turn a bunch of pieces out. He doesn’t do that. He doesn’t use machinery. He makes everything by hand. He doesn’t brag on himself enough.” In addition to the handmade detail put into Tallent’s pieces, the quality of his stone selection is also very important to the artist. “He uses only natural stones,” Elizabeth said. “A lot of people will use treated stones to make a product look a certain way, but his work is all handmade and natural. Even the stones — he’s really picky about the quality to make sure they’re real.” Tallent said his next stop is the Firehouse Art Center’s Midsummer Nights Fair from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. July 8 and July 9 in Norman.

Body count among favorite characters high this season By Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times
By definition, finale season is tough on a viewer’s nerves. Like a college lover heading home at the end of spring semester, your favorite show wants to make sure you don’t forget the passion and the pain, that although you may make new friends over the summer, you won’t get carried away, won’t find a replacement show to consume you. Hence, the season finale shocker, which comes in four basic packages: cliffhanger, hail of bullets, consummation of forbidden/thwarted/deferred love or a combination of all three. Either anticipating the assassination of Osama bin Laden or remembering how great last year’s “Grey’s Anatomy” gunman-in-Seattle-Grace finale turned out, hail of bullets was a big favorite this year. The lovable Jeffersonian intern Mr. Vincent Nigel-Murray (Ryan Cartwright) took one meant for Agent Booth (David Boreanaz) on the penultimate episode of “Bones.” Half of Harlan County went down on “Justified,” including the wondrous Mags Bennett (Margo Martindale), though she chose poison after the gun smoke cleared. On “Castle,” not only did Capt. Montgomery (Ruben Santiago-Hudson) commit suicide by bad guy, but Beckett (Stana Katic) also got shot (though surely not fatally) while speaking at his funeral. And “The Mentalist’s” Patrick Jane (Simon Baker) appears to have finally killed his nemesis, Red John (deliciously played by Bradley Whitford). Non-bullet-related deaths were also quite popular — Sue’s sister Jean (Robin Trocki) died on the penultimate
episode of “Glee,” prompting a sobfest funeral, and “Fringe’s” Peter Bishop (Joshua Jackson) saved two worlds and apparently edited himself out of existence in the finale’s final moments. Peter will no doubt be back, but the other characters above, and the actors who play them, are not so lucky. People die all the time in many of these shows, but usually they are people hired to die (or who turn out to be the killer), which is why finales so often have to sacrifice one of their own to up the stakes. And although there is an undeniable thrill in seeing how far into the core group of characters the writers room will go to create tension, it’s upsetting to view the final body count and contemplate the frailty of, if not human life, then the basic contract the viewer has with a show (not to mention the actors’ actual contracts.) Certainly, a death can be a powerful message — who doesn’t remember Radar O’Reilly (Gary Burghoff) coming into the operating theater without a surgical mask to tell everyone that Lt. Col. Henry Blake’s plane had been shot down over the Sea of Japan and that there were no survivors. (I am tearing up even as I write the words.) And what writer wouldn’t want to emulate the “Who shot J.R.?” cliffhanger that really did keep everyone talking for months? Increasingly, these finale stunners seem rote and calculated — find a character beloved enough to pull the viewers’ heartstrings but still replaceable — which means that the deaths will be forgotten by the fall premieres and that some fine character actor is out of work again. It’s a bloody business, finale season. Of course, it could be worse; next year, the shows could all go musical.

BY THE NUMBERS
‘Born This Way’ comes cheaply By Todd Martens Los Angeles Times
LOS ANGELES — Like Madonna or Kanye West, Lady Gaga has a knack for attracting controversy, even when the matter at hand is out of her control. “Born This Way,” the pop star’s latest release for Interscope Records, debuted atop the U.S. pop charts Wednesday with more than 1.1. million copies sold, yet that number comes with something of an asterisk. The figure marked the Lady Gaga best first-week album sales since 50 Cent’s “The Massacre” sold 1,141,000 copies in 2005. But what was unusual was that Lady Gaga’s total was fueled by digital downloads — a high percentage of which were sold for less than individual songs from the album. Last week, retailer Amazon.com raised eyebrows when it set the price for a download of the 14-track album at 99 cents on its May 23 release day, representing an unprecedented discount for a marquee release. ITunes was selling a download of the album for $11.99. Although Amazon sold the album at that price for only two days, Billboard estimated that it sold more than 440,000 albums at that price, and Nielsen SoundScan reports that overall digital sales among all retailers accounted for 60 percent of the first week sales of “Born This Way.” Although the company doesn’t break out the 662,000 downloads sold by retailer, a look at some recent major releases can put Lady Gaga’s digital sales in perspective. When Taylor Swift’s Big Machine album “Speak Now” bowed at No. 1 in November 2010 with more than 1 million copies sold, only 27 percent came from the digital sector. Likewise, for Eminem’s Interscope album “Recovery,” which came out in June 2010 with more than 740,000 copies in its first week, only 34 percent of that tally came from the digital sector. “Recovery” was the bestselling digital album of 2010, selling 852,000 downloads over a sixmonth period. The second bestselling digital album of 2010 was “Speak Now,” with 488,000 downloads.
