Detour

<i>Detour</i>

A little more than halfway through William Dickerson’s Detour, the film’s protagonist, trapped in his truck deep underground, takes a moment to ponder and appreciate a tiny ant that has crawled into his vehicle (and potential tomb). The ant bites him. So much for kinship amongst the tiny and powerless. The metaphor is both obvious and apt—before the immensity of Nature, best-laid plans and self-centric lives are absurdly inconsequential. Ignore this disparity at your own peril. (But don’t be afraid to put up a fight, anyway.)...  read more

Catching Up With Katee Sackhoff on Sexy Evil Genius

Catching Up With Katee Sackhoff on <i>Sexy Evil Genius</i>

Since the close of Battlestar Galactica, Katee Sackhoff has been one of the most active of the cult classic’s illustrious alumni. She had a long run on 24, of course, but she’s also had significant multi-episode roles in CSI and Robot Chicken, as well as her central role in the A&E series Longmire. But her latest project is one she feels a different kind of passion for, and not just because she’s a producer. Sexy Evil Genius (out today on DVD, VOD, and digital download) was written by Scott Lew, the development-executive-turned-screenwriter who is waging a brave battle with ALS....  read more

The Company You Keep

<i>The Company You Keep</i>

Assembling a cast of Hollywood heavyweights can mean many things. It can signify the devil-may-care attitude of an Ocean’s Eleven, where acting luminaries are given quirky, “different” roles so they can have some fun away from their relentless Oscar baiting. It can, quite literally, be stunt casting, such as something like The Expendables, where the gluttony of violence and bloodshed also extends to the role call on posters. In the case of Robert Redford’s newest effort, The Company You Keep, it is a shot across the bow of the serious adult drama, declaring the director/star’s intent to burn the...  read more

In 1993, American cave enthusiast Chris Nicola traveled to Western Ukraine for two purposes—to learn more about his ancestral roots and to explore the Gypsum Giant cave system that is home to some of the world’s largest horizontal caverns.
