SAMANTHA CRAIN
Hello,‘Goodbye’ Okie songwriter Samantha Crain flexes creative freedom on fifth studio album BY BECKY CARMAN For LOOKatOKC
N
orman-based songwriter Samantha Crain has long been lauded for her dramatic, character-driven songs. Much was made in the media about her effusive musical storytelling, the tiny woman with a very big voice and an acoustic guitar, and Crain latched onto this public persona for upward of a decade. “I got described as this girl who sits in a cornfield and writes songs,” Crain said in her media material. “And I went with it, because I didn’t really Samantha Crain, right, reunited with recording know who I was. I realize now engineer John Vanderslice (Spoon, The that I missed out on a lot of Mountain Goats) to record “You Had Me At creative freedom by treating my Goodbye.” Crain penned the tracks at home over songwriting so preciously.” five months between shifts at a day job, then There’s less acoustic guitar, recorded the album (cover shown above) more Technicolor and an abunin seven days at Vanderslice’s Oakland studio, dance of unpretentious humor Tiny Telephone. [PHOTO PROVIDED BY DAKOTA LEWALLEN] on her fifth offering, “You Had Me at Goodbye,” released March 24 via Ramseur Records. Turning the lens inward has been fruitful, as “YHMAG” paints a more complete picture of Crain as she exists outside of music journalism: a loud talker, both confident and self-effacing, sweet with sharp edges and startlingly funny.
Q:
Is allowing yourself to be kind of poppy and funny in your songs something you’ve wanted to do before but stayed away from? Samantha Crain: It’s not like I was holding myself back. I was maybe not aware enough of myself or tuned-in enough to realize that was part of my personality I could inject into the songs I was writing. This album would’ve been the first time I would’ve been able to pull that out of myself. SEE CRAIN, 5

SAMANTHA CRAIN
CRAIN CONTINUED FROM 4
Q:
Did you study any pop records for this while to get into a particular head space for this kind of writing? Crain: Not a whole lot of modern pop music, but I did kind of deconstruct and look a little closer at David Bowie or Beatles songs. Because we know those as pop songs, we automatically align that with meaning they’re common or simple, but actually the reason they’re so magnetic is there’s something unique about them, key changes and weird half bars. That’s what makes them catchy, I think. Those and “Toxic” by Britney Spears.
Q: You chose to work with John
Vanderslice again for this album. How did he react after hearing the new songs for the first time, since they’re so different?
LOOKATOKC.COM
Crain: John’s always excited to get people out of their comfort zones. He likes it when people feel like they’ve maybe jumped in a pool that’s a little too deep. And he’s right; he has some sort of emotion to work with. When you feel completely confident and safe with a group of songs, it’s really easy to not capture any dangerous moments because you’re so locked-in. It’ll sound good, but it won’t necessarily be that exciting. I also kind of gave him free reign, like, ”If you have an idea that maybe you think I wouldn’t have been OK with in the past, but you think it could be something really cool, then let’s just go for it. Let’s try it.”
Q:
It was crazy to me that the first few seconds of the record are like “Mr. Sandman,” that kind of happy 1950s pop, and then it becomes modern really quickly. Are the finished songs anything like you imagined them going into the studio?

SAMANTHA CRAIN
CRAIN CONTINUED FROM 5 Crain: Some of them went completely different directions. “Antiseptic Greeting” is pretty spot-on. I wanted that to be like a “Mr. Sandman” but maybe if somebody took some psychedelics before they wrote that song. “Dear Louis,” I knew the feel of that song was going to be pretty upbeat and punky, power pop. “Smile When” was a big surprise. I wrote that song to sound like a Bruce Springsteen ’80s arena rock song, and it got turned into a Talking Heads thing. Drums, bass and vocals. All of the instruments are me doing vocals. That was JV. He said, “This is going to make you feel uncomfortable.”
Q:
You have such a long relationship with him now, it is OK for him to say that? Crain: We’ve definitely built up a rapport at this point. He’s never been one to walk on eggshells, but since we’ve known each other for five years now, he knows that if something turns out weird and I get mad at him for a second, it’s not a big deal.
Q:
The promotional photos for this album are super cool. You picked a local photographer, and then Jarod Evans, of Blackwatch Studios, directed the video for “Dear Louis.” How much of this is you having an idea and pulling people close to you into it, and how much of it is you putting your trust in people because they know you personally? Crain: In the past I was hands-off when it came to the visual aspect, and it’s always been a little bit unfulfilling once I got the finished product. I tried to really take the time, this time around, to have a clear vision of what I wanted for photos and the music video and to relay that. Dakota (Lewallen) is a great photographer to work with because he’s really young, and he’s still learning and excited about different kinds of photography. I caught him in this stage where he was really into doing studio photography. He was making scenes.
Q:
People are saying this record is your “autobiographical” record. Being from Oklahoma sort of inserts this context for artists, and in the past I feel like you’ve rejected that a bit. But there are all these things very Oklahoma references — a song from Woody Guthrie’s journals and a song about Will Rogers and a response song to a Jimmy Webb song, and he’s from Elk City. Was any of that an intentional way to provide a sense of place? Crain: Those are just things that seep out of me. I never go into any sort of project thinking I need to

Samantha Crain has Choctaw heritage and grew up in Shawnee listening to her father’s Bob Dylan and Grateful Dead records, dabbling in painting and writing short stories. [PHOTO PROVIDED BY DAKOTA LEWALLEN] represent Oklahoma in any way. If anything, I would prefer people get a different view of the state. It’s not just the Oklahoma postcard that you’re getting. There are other things going on, a ton of great visual artists, an underground hip-hop scene. I would like people to get a little bit confused about what’s going on in Oklahoma.
Q: “Red Sky, Blue Mountain” is sung in
Choctaw, but to make a new traditional song is sort of touchy territory for a lot of people. How careful do you feel you have to be putting a traditional Choctaw song on your album, surrounded by American pop songs? Crain: The reason I can put this song on the album because I’m kind of done thinking about what everyone else thinks traditional Native American culture should be. I’ve talked about this with Sterlin Harjo and Ryan Redcorn and other Native artists. You can stand by and watch a culture try to hold onto the little bits of uncolonized traditional stuff and eventually die out because the new people don’t feel like they can be involved because they’re not brown enough, or they don’t speak the language fluently. Or you can be proactive and get younger Native artists feeling comfortable creating art, because technically, if a Choctaw person makes art, it’s Choctaw
art. I’m trying to be proactive. I’ve captured all that I can. In order to get people excited about keeping the language alive, I think songs can keep traditions going by making them growing and thriving culture rather than one that people are forgetting.
Q:
How connected are the recorded versions of these songs versus the live performances of them? This record seems extremely difficult to re-create live. Crain: We are trying to re-create the album pretty much the way it was recorded, and it has proven a challenge. This is the most stressed-out I’ve ever been about band practices. We’re using tracks. I’m still not sure how it’s going to work. I’m not doing any solo shows on these tours. I didn’t even write half of these songs on the acoustic guitar, so I wouldn’t even know how to do it. Because I did spend so long having a very direct and clear idea about the visual and sonic aspects of the album, I want to be able to control that in a live setting. In the past, that maybe wasn’t the most important thing. I just had songs, and the songs were what I was really invested in. With these songs, it’s more about the whole package of the album rather than the songs individually. I want to try to be able to re-create that. And ... we will see how it goes.

‘IN IT TO WIN IT’ Okie native Charlie Wilson electrifies Chesapeake Arena

BY BRANDY MCDONNELL For LOOKatOKC
If timeworn truths could be literally personified, Charlie Wilson would be the human form of the old saying “age is nothing but a number.” The Oklahoma native and 11-time Grammy nominee belted and crooned, strutted and swaggered, danced and quick-changed nonstop through the March 17 home-state show on his “In It to Win It Tour.” Two years after playing Chesapeake Energy Arena on his “Forever Charlie Tour,” the former Gap Band frontman returned to The Peake with his new trek, drawing about 10,000 fans who eagerly sang along with funky hits from the past and happily swayed to the dreamy ballads from his recent solo albums, including his February release “In It to Win It.” The R&B superstar known as “Uncle Charlie,” 64, was operating at peak showmanship, energetically leading his
colorfully clad eight-piece band — including a stellar horn section — and his quartet of elaborately costumed backup dancers — their guises throughout the night ranged from angel outfits with full wings to devil-red sequined jumpsuits — across the stage as they ushered the crowd aboard the “Party Train.” “I was born in Oklahoma City, raised up in Tulsa, so this is all my hometown. I’m getting overwhelmed again because I’m at home right now, and I feel so good to be home,” Wilson told the audience. Dressed in a series of snazzy suits and his signature sunglasses, the singer-songwriter kept his career-spanning hit parade chugging seamlessly from Gap Band favorites like “Burn Rubber On Me (Why You Wanna Hurt Me)” to his more recent cover of Roger Troutman’s “I Want to Be Your Man” to his smooth new single “Chills.” SEE WILSON, 11

WILSON CONTINUED FROM 9 Donning jackets and shoes that lit up like Christmas trees, he and his band proved that good music always sounds fresh as they mashed up the Gap Band’s playful 1979 groove “Oops, Up Side Your Head” with one of the most ubiquitous songs of the past decade, “Uptown Funk.” (The two songs sound so similar that in 2015 Mark Ronson added the Gap Band and their collaborators to the list of co-writers for his Grammy-winning smash.) He set the template for romantic serenades with “Charlie, Last Name Wilson,” urging the men in the crowd to stand, swap their names into the lyrics and croon to their ladies. “We’re going to have some church here in Oklahoma tonight,” Wilson declared, praising the Lord with his fervent
LOOKATOKC.COM
hymns “I’m Blessed” and “Amazing God” from his new album. He recounted his unlikely and uplifting comeback story — after the funky fame and fortune of the Gap Band, he descended into drug addiction and homelessness, but was eventually able to turn his life around and embark on his successful solo career — and his promise to God that he would worship Him from the stage if he ever got back there. Wilson invited opening act Johnny Gill back to the Chesapeake Arena stage to divide and conqueror the crowd with the Gap Band’s raucous jam “Outstanding.” But Wilson evidently had more stamina than his audience; although the crowd seemed into the sprawling closing number, many of the fans hit the exits as soon as it was over. Although we didn’t get an encore that might have included one of my all-time favorite songs, “You Dropped a Bomb on Me,” Wilson’s dynamic, 90-minute OKC performance cemented his status as one of R&B’s most accomplished and inexhaustible entertainers.

irst they were best friends, and now they’re bandmates. Meet the Kylies. Kylie Slabby and Kylie Hastings, both 23, front the Tulsa punk vehicle The Daddyo’s, and the amigos have known each other since middle school. Taking music seriously came later. “We are soul sisters so I guess that’s what has kept us friends and working together,” Slabby said. “... I’ve never been closer to anyone in my life and nothing can tear us apart ever.” Hastings added that playing music with her pal feels like an extension of their childhood. “We’re still getting to have all the fun we started having back in middle school,” Hastings said. “... There’s nothing to not like about being in The Daddyo’s.” The Daddyo’s recorded its new “Or Worse” EP with Tulsa recording engineer Mike Gilliland. The band recently changed its lineup and now features Chris Rusk and John Atkins. You can catch them celebrating “Or Worse” April 22 at Tulsa’s Soundpony or on the main stage of Norman Music Festival X. I caught up with the Kylies to talk about their do-it-yourself work ethic, undying friendship and starting The Daddyo’s.
Tulsa punks The Daddyo’s celebrate new EP
Q:
What are the common threads that have kept you guys friends and working together? Kylie Hastings: We just don’t ever fight. We are the same person in different bodies. We agree on just about everything that’s band or music related. And if we don’t, being friends and practically sisters for the most significant years of our lives has made us close enough that we can discuss things. There’s no competition, resentment or jealousy. No one in our band is trying to be a frontman/lady and no one is trying to steal the show. The few times Kylie and I have fought, we have ended up nearly peeing our pants in laughter afterwards because we just can’t stay mad at each other. We also just accept each other how we are and care about each other. We were just born to be together and that’s the bottom line.

Q:
How does a majority of Daddyo’s songwriting get done? Do you share the workload? Kylie Slabby: There’s always a part of every song that was written together. Sometimes Hastings has a song she started working on, she’ll show me and then I will add some harmonies and a guitar riff or something. And then sometimes we will be sitting around practicing and one of us will just start playing some SEE Q&A, 13 From left, The Daddyo’s is Chris Rusk, Kylie Slabby, John Atkins and Kylie Hastings.

Q:
Q&A
You ran into delays releasing “Or Worse.” What slowed things down?
CONTINUED FROM 12
Slabby: We planned on September, but it got pushed back so many times because of really stupid drama that should have never happened. It was feelings getting in the way of something bigger. I’m not sure if it was jealousy or just straight up anger, but it didn’t need to happen. People can really surprise you sometimes.
chords and then we’ll be like, “Wow that sounds cool keep playing that.” Thus a new Daddyo’s song is born. That’s actually happens a lot come to think of it. Hastings: We write most songs together as of late. But we still both write our own songs and then bring them to each other to make them into a Daddyo’s song. We very, very casually write music. More than half the time it’s an accident. Usually we are just playing at home or at practice. By accident, we’ll write something that we love and we’ll just make eye contact across the room and be shaking our heads in disbelief because we’re like, “OMG this is so good.” We’re just having fun. We’re writing songs for each other more so than for other people. I’m in love with Kylie’s songs she’s written herself and vice versa.
LOOKATOKC.COM
Hastings: Money, life, people and problems. It’s just a process that sometimes takes time. If we were able to record and master our own music, we’d probably put out a new album every month. But we suck at that, and instead we get to work with very talented people that know what they’re doing. So, it just takes some time to get to the end of it. This time around, we had to find someone new to mix and master the recordings. But we are more than happy with the results, and it has been worth the wait overall.
Q:
Talk to me about the DIY ethic of the band. Were there many venue options when you started playing live? Slabby: Well, we are probably the masters of DIY. We always make or design our own merch. Every CD that we have ever had for merch was handmade. So much time goes into anything we do. We’re not rich so we have to get creative sometimes. There are hardly any all-age venues here in Tulsa. Before we were 21, we didn’t have a whole lot of options as to where we could play, but we were allowed to play at some bars. But once we played our first show, we didn’t want anything to get in the way of us not being 21, so we never let that happen. Also, we were like 19 or 20 when we started Daddyo’s, so we weren’t too far from being 21 once we started playing live.

BY BECKY CARMAN For LOOKatOKC
Oklahoma City rock band The Nixons reunited last month for two shows, one in Oklahoma City and a festival date at Edgefest in Dallas. The pair of shows marked the band’s first performance in over 15 years and the first reunion of the four original members — singer/guitarist Zac Maloy, guitarist Jesse Davis, bassist Ricky Brooks and drummer John Humphrey — in nearly 20. The Nixons’ major-label debut, “Foma,” was released in 1995 on MCA Records, and the single “Sister” was a mainstream radio hit that charted in the Billboard Hot 100. The Nixons spent several years touring heavily and released two
more full-length albums before calling it quits in 2000. Humphrey, who is now the drummer in rock and Seether, talked to LOOKatOKC about the reunion, which would include not only Nixons songs fans love but also a little added panache. “It’s something like 20 years — still can’t believe it — since this lineup had been in a room together,” Humphrey said. “We were having many different emotions hitting us at once, the nervousness of not playing as a band in almost two decades and thinking, ‘Can we get through the songs?’ And just trying to take in how special it was that it was happening. But the songs came right back. There were no train wrecks, no having to stop. It sounded like we’d been playing all along.”

ideaway Pizza's owners and a local development group are teaming up to bring a new project to a busy corner in north Oklahoma City. Restaurant owners Brett Murphy and Darren Lister are working with William Mee and Greg Downs of Pro Realty to develop a mixed-use, three-building project with enough room to park about 155 vehicles at NW 50 and Western. The Hideaway Pizza will be about 7,000 square feet in size, with an enclosed patio, a small, upstairs dining area and a full-service bar, and will be capable of seating about 160 guests.
The group plans for it to anchor the development, with the restaurant fronting the intersection's southeast corner. They also plan to build a single-story building that could have retail, offices or a bank on the property's southwest corner, close to the intersection of NW 49 and Western. Another building, also planned for use as office, retail, perhaps a small restaurant or medical, will be built on the 2-acre site's east end, also abutting NW 50. It could be one, or perhaps two stories tall, depending on how efforts go to acquire tenants. The developers and restaurant owners did not disclose how much money they are spending on the project.

PIZZA CONTINUED FROM 16 own its building, owners said. Another Hideaway Pizza less than two miles away will close, as the restaurant’s marketing director has said the company doesn’t plan to renew its lease for that property at 6616 N Western. Most of the land involved in the project at NW 50 and Western historically has been zoned commercial, as the corner used to be occupied by a gas station until Chesapeake acquired the land with plans to build its own unique brand of convenience store on it some years back. Under the oil and gas company’s control, Mee said its zoning plans were updated, although he added they’ve had to tweak those uses since to allow for the selling and consumption of alcohol. “Now, our next step is to get the Hideaway plans finished,” said Mee, with Murphy and Lister adding they hope construction on the restaurant will start

sometime this summer and that it will open about a year from now. Mee and Downs said they have a lot of experience in the area, as they already have redeveloped the Shartel Plaza shopping district just down the street. They said they also are extremely supportive of the Western Avenue Association and the Crown Heights neighborhood. A capital campaign by Bishop McGuinness High School to improve its campus, as well as Westminster School’s expansion work just blocks away, guarantees continued growth of the area, they added. “We think Hideaway is just going to kill it,” said Mee. The outside appearance of this newest Hideaway Pizza, Murphy and Lister said, will be quite similar to one the company opened a couple of years ago in Owasso. However, the restaurant’s interior will feature collages and art that highlight the nearby schools and the area’s history.
Murphy and Lister have been working on expanding the enterprise since they bought it about 10 years ago, and the company recently opened a 17th store in Arkansas. Hideaway Pizza also is celebrating its 60th birthday this year. Both Murphy and Lister said their operations have received warm welcomes wherever they have gone, and they added they continue to plan for future growth both inside and outside the state. As for the project at NW 50 and Western, Mee said developers’ plans for the two supporting buildings are still fluid, as they are looking for either tenants or potential buyers. “Nothing’s in stone, and we are in no rush to find someone,” Mee said. He added the project will be integrated into the neighborhood using both sidewalks and lighting. “We want to see a lot of walk-up business. We want to enhance that, both from the schools, the surrounding neighborhood and the Western Avenue commercial district,” Mee said. “We just want to be a great anchor for everyone else who is already here.”

A Bricktown restaurant once known by a metonymy for nakedness has dressed itself in Japanese pop culture to the extreme for more reason than one. Dekora!, the restaurant formerly known as In the Raw, still serves overthe-top sushi rolls but in a space that survived Godzilla and lived to tell about it. One could interpret it as an homage to Mothra’s conversion from caterpillar to moth, but it’s really just the embodiment of its owner’s “extreme hospitality” maxim. “The first restaurant I worked in didn’t serve Dr Pepper,” said Anna Mains, who co-owns Dekora! with her husband, Drew. “When people ordered it, I would tell them ‘We don’t have it, but the restaurant across the street does’ and I would sprint across the street to go get them Dr Pepper and refill it. I am wholly and passionately bought into the idea that we are here to provide an experience for our guests. In my view, we’re the entertainment industry. People eat out to escape their daily lives, and we want to provide it for them. If somebody wants a fried egg on top of their sushi, I may think it’s strange, but I have eggs and I will make it happen.”
IT CAME FROM TULSA The cocktail program at Dekora! is fun and inventive. [PHOTO PROVIDED]

APRIL 6 – APRIL 19, 2017
Anna Mains started out working behind the bar for a summer job during college at the University of Tulsa. “Within that summer, I knew I had the bug,” she said. The Dallas native started out waiting tables, but what she saw as a strength wasn’t so apparent to her first bosses. “I like to talk to people, so when I was out on the floor, I would get stuck in conversations, so they stuck me behind the bar.” After graduating from TU, Anna took a marketing job with Outback Steakhouse corporate. In the process of
opening a store in Edmond, she met her future husband, Drew Mains. Once they realized it was true love, Anna moved to Oklahoma City and took a job at a familiar concept she knew and loved from Tulsa, In the Raw. Mains said she chose the job because she had frequented the Tulsa locations during school. But she said it became clear early on there would be problems. “Bricktown is very different from Brookside or The Hill,” Mains said. “Also, not having an owner in town was making it very difficult on the business.” Despite the problems, Drew joined Anna at In the Raw behind the bar. Together they decided to read the impending doom as rising opportunity. “The place was going to close because it wasn’t working,” she said. “We were able to purchase the restaurant, and over the next three years, we made the menu our own, we made the staff our own and installed the culture we wanted.” No more operating in the raw; time to get dressed.
THE METAMORPHOSIS To help them fine-tune their vision, the Mainses approached Robot House Creative, which had done such a sensational job in helping them convert the Granddad’s Bar space in Uptown into the booze-peddling repository of 1974 kitsch, Rockford Cocktail Den. Robot House brought the same audacity, and a small army of Japanese toys, into the Dekora! remodel and rebrand. “Dekora means extreme decoration, which is kind of my philosophy in life,” Mains said. “If I’m going into the hospitality industry, I’m not going to dabble in it. I’m going to build an empire.” She said the idea came from the Mad Max-meets-Hello Kitty dekotora trucks of Japan. Mains said she also found vintage Ultraman figurines from Japan available by the box-load on eBay, which might’ve been the initial LOOKATOKC.COM
creative spark. That led to an all-out assault on the senses fueled by neonto-the-nth sensibilities of Japanese pop culture. Mains said that spirit lives in the menu, as well as the decor. “Our food has extreme flavors, and combinations, loud colors, vibrant dishes.” While the decor got louder, the menu brought fire into focus. A new grill made it possible to offer yakitori (grilled chicken on a stick). The change also allowed them to go completely off the Asian script to offer steak and potatoes. “We are Oklahoma and still have a lot of people who aren’t into sushi, so we brought in a Prime strip,” Mains said. “We do a homemade mashed potato with it. You can choose a wasabi butter or shiitake demi-glace with it.” As for the sushi, Mains said they concentrate on novelty rolls over traditional sashimi to appeal to the broader Bricktown crowd, but the focus on quality fish couldn’t be higher. “I know we have some of the freshest fish in town because we order direct from the fisherman,” she said. Some of the more than 30 sushi rolls on the menu are named for manga culture and classic space comics. Those rolls also can be made with brown rice on request. Mains said they also wanted to expand their shared plate offerings. “Sushi in and of itself is kind of a shared experience,” she said. “We do
have three or four large format entrees, but a lot of the menu is focused on shareable items so if you have a group come in you can split and enjoy together.” For dessert, Dekora! offers an array of house-made cheesecakes. “We elevated our dessert game for sure,” Mains said. Behind the bar is still where Anna and Drew Mains feel most at home, and it shows. The specialty is sake, but there is a bottle of wine or beer for the most discerning tastes. The cocktail program is fun and inventive, including a dynamite daiquiri that’ll make you forget all the sins committed against the cocktail since the 1980s. Coming up, Dekora! will host monthly sake dinners to help introduce diners to the surprising range and nuance of rice wine. Mains said the five-course dinners will include small bites and sake pairings. And, in case you’re concerned Bricktown “isn’t local enough,” think again. “I modge-podged and hung all the stuff on the walls myself,” Mains said. “We’re about as local as you can get.” Dekora, 200 S Oklahoma Ave., Suite 130; is open 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. six days a week for lunch. It opens at 5 p.m. for dinner and closes at 9 p.m. Monday and Tuesday; 10 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday; and 11 p.m. Friday. Saturday hours are noon to 11 p.m. For the full menu, go to www. extremeyum.com

POPCORN
Timeless demand keeps this small business popping BY JACK MONEY For LOOKatOKC
Popcorn has lasting appeal. Kasie Goad, who co-owns the Popcorn Fharmacy in Oklahoma City with her mom, should know. Goad’s parents bought the company 27 years ago, when Kasie was just 9 years old, and they’ve been selling tasty popcorn to customers ever since. Popcorn Fharmacy offers customers more than 40 flavors of the snack that they can get in amounts ranging from a ball of buttered and salted popcorn costing just 95 cents to a 16-gallon bag of cake batter-flavored popcorn costing $125. The Popcorn Fharmacy also sells metal containers to hold popcorn, which can be refilled for cheap. It sells a 1 gallon can for prices ranging from $10 to $25, and 3- and 6.5-gallon cans that cost anywhere from $19 to $57. As for the popcorn, plenty of tasty options exist. The store sells popcorn that is buttered and with or without salt, and a low-calorie version.
SAVORY AND SWEET Then there are about a dozen savory flavors, including pickle, jalapeno, cheddar ‘n bacon, a couple of dozen sweet varieties that include cherry, grape and strawberry, and specialty flavors. Goad, her mom and employees regularly pop and flavor the product it to make sure they always have a fresh supply available. Popcorn has a lasting appeal that Americans have craved since it first starting getting sold by street vendors before becoming a staple snack of movie watchers about 75 years ago, Goad said. But Popcorn Fharmacy’s operators tout the business’ product quality and customer service.

POPCORN CONTINUED FROM 20 “We try to meet every possible need,” Goad said, from customers coming in to get a quick snack to others who are looking to buy larger amounts as gifts for their clients. Moms often bring kids in after school for a snack, while churches buy bags of the product for their events. This time of year, Goad said business picks up as future brides look for creative ways to cater their upcoming weddings.

“Popcorn bars are wildly popular,” she said, “because they can feed a ton of people for not a lot of money.” Some put the popcorn out as part of a happy hour, while others might include it as part of their dessert table or offer snack bags as a parting gift when an event concludes. As summer wanes, customers putting together backto-school events are common, and, when holiday season arrives, the Popcorn Fharmacy adds seasonal help, she said. “At Christmastime, it can get crazy,” she said. Popcorn bars also are popular additions to birthday parties and other special events, she said. “A popcorn bar is visually pleasing. Everyone likes it,
it’s very economical, and it’s unique,” she said. The Popcorn Fharmacy also rents out small poppers, snow cone and cotton candy makers and sells the products used to make those treats. “We are a one-stop shop for a really fun event,” she said. So, what’s Popcorn Fharmacy customers’ favorite? Buttered and salted popcorn, Goad replied. She added that her favorite flavor, meanwhile, is cake batter, adding it’s the choice of most customers when the event is something special. “We don’t bring anything in from outside, other than the things we don’t make. Popcorn? That’s what we do. We do it all here in the store.”

MIKE, ANIMATED One of the world’s busiest animators grew up shooting music videos in OKC BY NATHAN POPPE LOOKatOKC Editor
BY THE NUMBERS
Mike Mitchell needed to get back to work. The Oklahoma City-bred filmmaker, 46, is short on time these days. After codirecting 2016’s Oscar-nominated hit “Trolls,” Mitchell is tackling directing duties for “The LEGO Movie Sequel.” This clearly isn’t his first animated rodeo. The Okie has earned credits on two “Shrek” movies, “Kung Fu Panda 3” and “Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked.” He’s even directed a handful of live action films such as “Sky High” and “Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo.” Combined, his directorial efforts have accrued a dizzying worldwide box office gross. “Shrek Forever After” alone made more than $750 million and “Trolls’ “ impressive draw puts Mitchell’s movies in the billion-dollar range. “Trolls” also landed on DVD and Blu-ray in January. He has two decades of Hollywood experience, but he discusses projects like an enthusiastic student in a classroom.

Q&A CONTINUED FROM 22 “I’m always learning,” Mitchell told LOOKatOKC. “I was learning when I was making films with my good friends in Oklahoma, and I’m still doing the same thing now.” I jumped on the phone with Mitchell, and he detailed his road from Oklahoma to Hollywood.
Q:
What was your life like growing up in Oklahoma City? Mike Mitchell: It was fantastic and very creative. I had a group of friends, and they were always willing to help me make a film. I started off with an 8 mm camera, and then I purchased one of those video cameras when the time came around. It was gigantic. That was the technology, this was in the ’80s, so it was a giant camera. It was always attached to the VCR itself, which was the size of a suitcase, and they had batteries in them that were
LOOKATOKC.COM
the size of bricks.
Q: What did you shoot? Mitchell: I went from garage band to garage band. A lot of my friends were musicians, and who doesn’t want to see themselves rocking out? So, I would film them, then Mom would make popcorn, we’d go inside, everyone would watch themselves and then they’d help me make short films. In my memory, it was a super creative time. Two things I loved about Oklahoma: I could ride my Mongoose bike a mile and seem to be in the middle of nowhere, and then I also, which I miss, are the rainstorms and thunderstorms. It’s so flat out there that the whole sky lights up, and it’s something that I miss out here in California because you just can’t have that anywhere else. And of course the barbecue. There’s no such thing as barbecue anywhere else except for Oklahoma.
Q:
Small world, we both graduated from Putnam City North High School. I understand you traveled to California right after.
What was that transition like? Mitchell: I have to admit it was pretty scary. It was bizarre because I went to the University of Oklahoma first, and I was there for a year. I did live action filmmaking, and then I jumped to an art college called California Institute of the Arts. (It was) filled with the most amazing people. The guy who created SpongeBob SquarePants was in that class, the guy who directed “Up,” “Inside Out” and “Monsters, Inc.” was in that class. ... Very different from OU, which is a beautiful, large campus. It has amazing sororities and fraternities. It’s centered around football. Cal Arts is not that. Cal Arts is a bunch of neck tattoos and naked people at the pools. Very hippie.
Q: Was Los Angeles a culture shock? Mitchell: Oh my God, my little Oklahoma brain exploded when I got there. I think my roommate was a vampire. My roommate was a self-proclaimed SEE Q&A, 24

A still from the Dreamworks Animation film “Trolls” [PHOTO PROVIDED]
Q&A CONTINUED FROM 23 vampire when I first got there. That was a little frightening for me. I wasn’t into that.
Q: I understand you got some cool
opportunities right after college. You worked for Tim Burton and Spike Jonze. What did you do for them? Mitchell: I worked on a Spike Jonze feature that was never made called “Harold and the Purple Crayon,” and then I did a few of his music videos and commercials. I was a storyboard artist at the time, so I did storyboards for Tim Burton and Spike Jonze. One was a Levi’s Jeans commercial I think that won an award. Jonze is the most creative guy in the world and just an amazing storyteller and such a
PAGE 24
APRIL 6–19, 2017
unique filmmaker, and I learned a lot from that guy.
Q:
You wear a lot of hats. You voice characters, animate, direct, produce and more. Is that required in the animation world? Mitchell: It’s not a requirement, but it’s a choice. When I was codirecting “Trolls,” I storyboarded on this film called “Sausage Party.” ... It was a sequence where the food is tortured to death, and it’s a shocking sequence that I got to work on and storyboard for a couple of weeks. Then I also worked on “Kung Fu Panda 3.” I was executive producing. I think it’s more of an energy that I have. I think it helped me work on “Trolls.” These films take so long to make. They take three years to make, and that’s why the animation is just killing it. These films are amazing. They’re going up against “Star Wars” and Marvel and doing really well. I think it’s because like (“Trolls” co-director) Walt Dohrn and
I and all the other directors, we really work it like a play. It’s like a workshop where we make the film, we look at it, we take it down and we make it again. We get to keep the good parts and we throw away the bad parts. It’s almost like we’re allowed to make mistakes.
Q:
All the major animation studios released popular movies in 2016. It was quite a year. Is it an exciting time to be making these types of family-friendly movies? Mitchell: I’m so happy that there’s an audience that still wants to go to the theater and have a good time with their kids. Parents and kids can watch these movies together and enjoy them. It just seems like the most creative time for animation because these films, again, take a long time and there’s so much creativity woven into such a small community. They’re really starting to explode, and it’s such an exciting time. I love it and couldn’t be happier.

Doesn’t top animated original, but we’d be its guest
LAURIE SPARHAM, DISNEY/AP]
BY BRANDY MCDONNELL For LOOKatOKC
With its live-action remake of “Beauty and the Beast,” Disney gives its cherished “tale as old as time” a lavish movie-musical treatment that casts its own powerful spell. Unlike “Cinderella” or “The Jungle Book,” other titles in its animated canon that the Mouse House lately has reimagined in live action, the beloved “Beauty and the Beast” didn’t need to be remade to freshen outdated themes or improve on flimsy storytelling. The 1991 blockbuster not only won Oscars for Alan Menken and the late Howard Ashman’s exquisite score and iconic title theme, but it also became the first full-length animated movie in cinema history to receive a best picture nomination. Director Bill Condon (“Dreamgirls”) and production designer Sarah Greenwood (“Atonement”) set out to enchant reluctant viewers from the remake’s sumptuous opening, as the coldhearted prince (Dan Stevens) sprawls on his gilded throne, watching a gaggle of gorgeously gowned damsels dance for him to the heavenly belting of six-time Tony winner Audra McDonald. The revelry is interrupted when a haggard woman (Hattie Morahan) seeks shelter from the stormy night and the prince cruelly turns her away. Transforming into an otherworldly enchantress, she turns the prince into an ugly beast, decreeing that he will regain his humanity only if he learns to love and be loved. The remake faithfully follows the animated classic, filling in little plot holes and sketching in back stories while working its own movie magic. All the treasured musical numbers are spectacularly revisited — “Be Our Guest” even gets a fun “Fantasia” vibe — and the new songs from Menken and Tim Rice fit in nicely. Although she doesn’t have the vocal range of Paige

‘BEAUTY AND THE BEAST’ PG 2:09 ★ ★ ★ ★ Starring: Emma Watson, Dan Stevens, Luke Evans, Emma Thompson and Josh Gad. (Some action violence, peril and frightening images)
O’Hara, the original voice of Belle, Emma Watson captivates as one of Disney’s best fairy-tale heroines, the brave and brainy small-town girl who longs for a bigger life, even as her loving father (Kevin Kline, bringing dignity to the role) strives to keep her safe. Watson’s chemistry with Stevens helps keep their lovely courtship on track even
when the computer-generated effects get a bit uncanny. Screenwriters Stephen Chbosky (“The Perks of Being a Wallflower”) and Evan Spiliotopoulos (“The Huntsman: Winter’s War”) find added emotional heft in the plight of the castle staff, whom the enchantress turned into household objects that become less human with the passing years. Although they can’t top the lively banter of Jerry Orbach and David Ogden Stiers, Ewan McGregor and Ian McKellen charm as the romantic butler-turned-candlestick Lumiere and the crotchety majordomo-turned-clock Cogsworth, respectively. Emma Thompson has the unenviable task of following the legendary Angela Lansbury but brings welcome warmth as housekeeperturned-teapot Mrs. Potts. Stanley Tucci hams it up as a new character, the court composer who is cursed into a harpsichord, while his opera singer wife (McDonald) is transformed into Belle’s wardrobe. The story also gives the baddies a little extra breathing room: Luke Evans plays Belle’s unwanted suitor Gaston less as a clueless buffoon and more as a narcissistic war hero who turns nasty when he doesn’t get what he wants, while Josh Gad converts the bumbling toady LeFou into a stalwart sidekick who keeps his macho compatriot’s ego bolstered and temper in check. The “Frozen” star is such a capable comedian he often steals the show. As for LeFou’s hyped “exclusively gay moment,” his 30-second dance with another man, like the wardrobe’s attacking the castle’s brawny invaders with womanly attire, is primarily played for laughs.
