Cristian Mungiu's 4 Months, 3 Weeks, and 2 Days"" is a movie
about the termination of life in a world drained of it. The movie
deals with illegal abortion, yes, but it is apolitical. Here,
abortion is a metaphor for a truncated, cold landscape, stunted by
years of Communist rule. The setting is 1980s-era Romania, still
unable to anticipate the impending wave of democratic revolution.
This is a humiliated and starved country, where college students
live in perpetual fear of relocation to rural areas, navigating the
black market is essential and abortion is completely illegal.

arts fans drooling with anticipation. However, while the hype for
""Forbidden Kingdom"" reaches great heights, the same can't be said
for the film's quality.

I've always wanted to be a doctor.This means different things to
some people. One of my male friends wants to be a gynecologist. He
thinks this will get him more ass, but I believe it will turn him
gay. Another of my friends wishes to be a farm veterinarian - while
this will guarantee asses of many sizes, they might not be of the
desired species.

For all of you who watched the Oscars last Sunday - which was
not many, considering the record-low ratings - you may remember the
Best Documentary category in which three of the five documentaries
were about the current war in Iraq. While all were critically
acclaimed, it's hard to argue with the winner, Alex Gibney's
military torture documentary Taxi to the Dark Side.""

To mark Sunday night's 50th Annual Grammy Awards - and perhaps
to stimulate enough nostalgia to get older folks through all the
modern flotsam that would follow - the ceremony began with a clip
of Frank Sinatra from the very first Grammys back in 1958. In
introducing the world to the then-new award show, Sinatra spoke
proudly about how it was designed not to recognize record sales or
popularity, but rather to honor merit in the recording arts.
