icepack By A.D. Amorosi

³ PHILLY RADIO JUST got a little duller now

that Brian Carter’s passed away, even though he’d been broadcasting out of his hometown of Baltimore for some time. From 1987 to 1999, the team of Carter and Sanborn turned morning-radio comedy into an art, first on Power 99 and later on WDAS-FM. The duo proved that being a humorous on-air pair didn’t require either the talent or the listeners to be assholes. They could be ribald, caustic and corny without a hint of the “gonzo” that long ago destroyed much of morning radio. They were warm and welcoming, and hearing Carter’s voice after their opening theme song “Two for the Price of One” made the rest of your day that much better. They were hip-hop’s equivalent of Abbott & Costello, without the schtickiness. Carter will be missed. Condolences to his family. ³ It sounds as if the long-vacant corner on Sixth and Bainbridge streets next to chi-chi Bistrot La Minette is getting a makeover from the brewhaus hosses of the Bella Vista Beer Distributors. You want casks? We hear the space will be stuffed with them. ³ That Da Comrade! gig at West Philly’s Glitoria house over the weekend that I mentioned in Icepack Illustrated last Friday turned out to be the raucous, Beefheart-like ensemble’s swan song. “It simply ran its course,” said principal singer/songwriter Fletcher Van Vliet, a sideburn-wearing gent who pens and croons sea-shanty-esque waltz-pop for his own On the Water project. “But there’ll be a new outfit with new music to come.” Comrade was a mussed-up fave of mine; here’s hoping for more of the same. ³ There’s been a flurry of activity at the twin towers of 2031 and 2029 Walnut St., the loneliest part of that long block. While the former address will blossom into Cherry Hill habitué Greg Vernick’s Vernick Food & Drink in a minute and a huff, that Le Bec-Fin-based café I wrote about a while ago is quickly gathering steam at the latter address, the one-time home of David Carroll’s much-missed Magazine, then Monkey Bar then the sad Strongbox not-spot. La Petite Dauphine is ex-LBFer David Smith’scoffee/small French cuisine plate salon. Expect a race to the finis between the two addresses. ³ One of this town’s favorite benefactors, Gerry Lenfest of Lenfest Broadcasting, is finally ready to launch the U.S.’s first broadcast television network designed for African-American audiences in the Philly area. Bounce TV will air on Comcast channel 262 in collaboration with WMCN 44 and Bounce founders Martin Luther King III and ex-UN ambassador Andrew Young — both of whom have been in and out of Philly since December when they pre-launched the channel. A soft Bounce, so to speak. ³ Icepack Illustrated lives at citypaper.net/criticalmass. (a_amorosi@citypaper.net)

NEVERMORE: Grip the raven, the speculated inspiration for Edgar Allan Poe’s classic poem, permanently perches in the Free Library (though not upon a bust of Pallas). WILL BROWN

show+tell By Emily Guendelsberger

THAT’S SO RAVEN GRIP THE RAVEN | Free Library, Rare Book Department

³ A RAVEN PERCHES upon a bust of Pallas near the door of the Free Library’s Rare Book Department. It’s a Halloween-prop fake, though — the real raven is just down the hushed hall, sitting on a branch inside two ventilated UV-glass cases dimly lit with fiberoptic lights. As the John Cusack movie is out this week (see Shaun Brady’s review on p. 24), City Paper visited Grip the Raven, believed to be the inspiration for the one who famously quoth “Nevermore.” Grip never belonged to Edgar Allan Poe, though — in fact, the two never met. This was the first of three pet ravens owned by Charles Dickens, all of which were named Grip. “Like George Foreman,” says Janine Pollock, head of the Rare Book Department. Though his name choices seem impersonal, Dickens loved animals, writing with great affection about the family’s many pets in correspondence. (He loved even the tiniest pets — a small headstone for the family canary sits near Grip’s case, with the epitaph “Dick, the best of birds.”) Dickens preserved some of his pets physically, but immortalized a few in his novels. Most prominent is Grip, who will forever be the companion of the titular half-wit of Barnaby Rudge, which Dickens was working on when Grip died after eating paint in 1841.

So why is Dickens’ raven in the Free Library’s Poe collection? There’s literary connections: Poe’s raven and the real and fictional Grips talked — a letter from Dickens mentions that the bird’s dying words were “‘Halloa old girl!’ (his favorite expression)” — and the poem has echoes of a scene in Barnaby Rudge where a character asks, “What was that — him tapping at the door?” and another responds, “’Tis someone knocking softly at the shutter.” But “the smoking gun is the review in Graham’s Magazine,” says Pollock. Poe, living in Philadelphia, favorably reviewed Barnaby Rudge in 1842, but opined that Grip might have been used more effectively as a literary device: “The raven, too, intensely amusing as it is, might have been made, more than we now see it. … Its croakings might have been prophetically heard. … ” From this comes the theory that “The Raven,” written in 1845, is Poe’s take on what he felt Dickens should have done. This was solidified by Philly’s Richard Gimbel, an avid collector of both authors. He got Grip at a Dickens auction, but at some point decided it belonged with Poe, as when he died in 1970 “he gave his Dickens collection to Yale and he gave his Poe collection to us,” says Pollock. Since then, Grip briefly journeyed across the street in the ’90s to be restuffed and cleaned at the Academy of Natural Sciences (“I think he had bugs,” says Pollock). He then returned to his home among the rare books — where he still is sitting, still is sitting.

Its dying words were “Halloa, old girl!”

MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL A haiku: Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries. (Not reviewed) (Ritz at the Bourse)

THE PIRATES! BAND OF MISFITS MONSIEUR LAZHAR|A Canadian filmmaker Philippe Falardeau’s Monsieur Lazhar, an adaptation of the stage play by Évelyne de la Chenelière, opens with kids playing in a Montréal publicschool yard only moments before mischievous 11-year-old Simon (Émilien Néron) runs inside to discover his teacher hanging from the ceiling of her classroom. With her school thrown into an emotional tizzy, the principal hires the first pleasant face with a résumé to walk into her office, an Algerian transplant named Bachir Lazhar (Mohamed Fellag). Upon his humble arrival, one would expect to settle in for one of those heart-tugging dramas about a heroic teacher swooping in to rescue downtrodden students, but as he grapples with ways to bring light back into his horrified classroom, it’s revealed he’s struggling with a heavy heart of his own. When the doors open to Lazhar’s private life, we learn that he’s no run-of-the-mill expatriate, but a yet-tobe-legal refugee whose wife and two young daughters were murdered by terrorists during the Algerian civil war. From there, Flardeau weaves in effective, cinematic parallels between the teacher (who keeps his struggles hidden when at school) and his students, who each deal with the tragedy in unique, thought-provoking ways. The film brings up a lot of issues, which, if you don’t know where to focus, may prove distracting. The real joy of it is in the classroom, where Fellag and a cast of talented ’tweens draw up a lesson plan about dealing with tragedy and finding that glowing exit sign at the end of a dark hall. —Josh Middleton (Ritz Five)

A haiku: Mommy, why do all these claymation pirates have such hideous teeth? (Not reviewed) (Pearl, UA Riverview)

THE RAVEN|CMy copy of The Complete Works of Edgar Allan Poe seems to be incomplete after all. There’s no story called “The Formulaic Thriller of Ashley Judd,” but a tale of that title would appear to be the only possible basis for James McTeigue’s utterly uninspired film. For all the resemblance the main character bears to the real Poe, Judd may as well have donned a fake goatee to play the late author, accustomed as she is to running around after shadowy killers, trying to rescue a loved one from their nefarious clutches. Instead, we get John Cusack, portraying the famously haunted scribe as a self-absorbed blowhard, albeit one with a soft spot for a buxom blonde debutante (Alice Eve). Poe’s self-described “biggest fan” undertakes a series of murders inspired by some of his most famous stories, so the author himself is called in to assist with the investigation — never mind that a cursory skimming would unearth the relevant clues. No amount of swinging pendulums, cobblestone streets (Hungary and Serbia standing in for Baltimore) or walled-in bodies can cover for the fact that McTeigue’s grasp of Poe doesn’t extend much further than the average high schooler’s. The master of atmospheric dread and inexplicable mysteries is trapped in a story that possesses neither. It's enough to drive anyone to

Phu Fha Thai, to be more specific, a Buddha-bedecked parlor with 30 seats and cooking to squelch the battle cry that Philly has no good Thai food. We do. It’s here, in hilly Roxborough. This is where Somlak Phongchang made her home upon More on: arriving from Chiang Mai in 2001. Do you know another Thai cook simmering a stockpot of the Chiang Mai specialty called hung lay curry? I don’t, but I’d wager none could top Phongchang’s version, as shiny and black as dark-chocolate ganache. Cloaking hunks of braised pork loin, the curry’s complex umami had me tasting tamarind, peanut, onion and chili all the way to the evening’s mango-sticky-rice finale, luminous with the rare balance of sweetness and acidity you find in about one of every hundred mangoes. But I’m getting ahead of myself. What preceded the dessert also earned raves, from the delicate steamed crab dumplings to the properly fishy som tum.

citypaper.net

Out in the black-and-white-tiled, burgundy dining room, I could hear the lurch of aggressively bubbling oil in the kitchen when Phongchang dropped our order of fish cakes in the deep fryer. The crunchy pucks of white fish looked as humble as the restaurant itself, but the flavor! Red curry, crushed lemongrass and shredded kaffir lime leaves wound through the moist mash, electrifying the mild fish with powerful, fragrant brightness and complex heat. Carrot flotsam and cucumber jetsam drifted through a sweet-andsour chili sauce, half salad, half dip for the fish cakes, and the kanom beng, a savory rice-flour crepe. Tinted yolk-gold with turmeric, the papery pancake resembled a giant omelette, overflowing with sweet shrimp, bean sprouts, bean curd and shredded coconut. Soft here, crunchy there, it was a textural dynamo. If using precooked duck could ever be forgivable, I might pardon Phongchang for featuring it in her chu chee curry. Sliced breast and whole legs bobbed in the saffron-hued coconut-milk gravy, a jetty for green beans, carrots, peppers and snow MORE FOOD AND peas. Phongchang should really roast her DRINK COVERAGE own birds; this curry, its tropical aroma balAT C I T Y P A P E R . N E T / anced by judicious fish sauce, deserves it. M E A LT I C K E T. Chicken satay was a bit dry, but distinguished by a lively peanut sauce. Chicken dumplings were as light as the crab ones; the spring roll, pedestrian; the fried tofu, squishy and bland. At five months old, Phu Fha Thai isn’t flawless. But warm, well-intentioned service and wallet-friendly prices help any irksome shortcomings fade into the background. Hung lay and chu chee come to the surface, along with this realization: I’ll be seeing a lot more of Roxborough. (adam.erace@citypaper.net)

8-10 MONTHS OLD, PIT BULL MIX Hi! My name is Walter. I was found wandering the streets and I’m now living at PAWS while I wait for a family of my own. I love sitting in laps and playing with tennis balls. Since I’m still young, I need some help learning basic commands and house training, but I know I’ll catch on quickly if you give me a chance! Located on the corner of 2nd and Arch.
