These boots are made for walking! More like these Kinky boots are made for walking! I know a lot of people have seen someone walk in heels, but have you seen someone do dance choreography in heels before, other than Beyonce? Well, the audience was in luck because they were shown wonderful choreography, singing, and…
And it’s exactly what you think it is Back in 2006 there was a high-concept comedy called “Snakes on a Plane” that largely came into being because of the Interwebs. With a built-in fanbase, and based on the premise of its title, it achieved a sort of cult status before the movie even came out….
Review: “Bones and All” is a cinematic feast With 2017’s “Call Me by Your Name”, director Luca Guadagnino achieved the level of American attention that his films had enjoyed internationally since the start of his “Desire Trilogy”—beginning with the Tilda Swinton-starring “I Am Love” (2009) and which continued with the underseen (by me, at least),…
Last weekend, Tulsa craft lovers and holiday shoppers alike bundled up and made their way to An Affair of the Heart, a semiannual event that is known as “the largest arts, crafts, and boutique show in Oklahoma.” The event was, overall, more subdued than the Tulsa State Fair. Upon entering the SageNet Center building at…
“The Fabelmans” is a window into the life of a legendary filmmaker “The Fabelmans,” director Steven Spielberg’s memoir and nostalgic origin story, is perhaps his most personal work. A chronicle of his relationship with movies, his family, and his complicated (sometimes discomfited) experience being a Jewish fish out of water. His avatar here is Sam…
As the fall semester comes to a close and the holidays approach, music classes and ensembles are holding concerts to display their musical talents. The first of these was the Tulsa Community College’s Chamber Orchestra and Concert Choir performance, which was held on Oct. 13. The orchestra and choir held a rehearsal right before the…
Outside of the giggle-worthy name, I never thought to see what Velvet Taco was all about. I didn’t know the concept, or care that it was a franchise that corporate marketers sometimes shoehorn into the corridor of Cherry Street when another place closes. In this case, the old, unlamented Long John Silver’s on 15th and…
So, hey? What is Detroit pizza? One might ask. Back in the day they used to build a lot of cars in Detroit and had a lot of steel 10 x 14-inch oil pans laying around. At some point, someone decided to make a pizza in one—and thus, a style was born. Essentially, it is…
A Tulsa institution on the tail end of Cherry Street, for roughly 20-years, Piehole Pizzeria continues to craft some great, comforting New York-style pies. Originally founded by bar and restaurant entrepreneur Zachary Matthews, before being sold to current owner Andy Park in 2014, it was always a place that (as an expat New Yorker myself)…
Have you ever seen “Brainstorm” or “Memento”? How about “Total Recall,” “Dreamscape,” “Minority Report” or, perhaps, “Strange Days”? No? Watch those instead. Because writer/director Lisa Joy’s feature film debut, “Reminiscence,” lifts many of its influences from those films, and probably a half-dozen others I am forgetting, without doing anything interesting with any of them. Set…
