“Interstellar” is a new
film from director Christopher Nolan starring Matthew McConaughey, Anne
Hathaway and Jessica Chastain; a five-star movie in my opinion. The film is a crowning achievement in the
sci-fi genre, but one that falls just short of masterpiece status.
“Interstellar” deals with such gigantic ideas such as our place in the cosmos,
while also contemplating the meaning of human life when our planet
cannot sustain us anymore.

“Birdman” encapsulates the very best of what cinema can do — the film is a breathless whirlwind through one man’s quest to achieve artistic relevance.

"Basetrack Live" is an interactive multimedia experience, created and performed by the dedicated group of artists from the En Garde Arts theater company and the corpsmen from the 1st Battalion, 8th Marines. I was lucky enough to catch the Oct. 22 performance at the Modlin Center for the Arts at University of Richmond. I have seen a great number of films and TV shows that deal directly with the effects of war, from "Full Metal Jacket" to "Band of Brothers." The majority of these productions focus primarily on the soldiers' perspectives on training, deployment, combat and re-integration back into society. Obviously the soldier’s perspective is crucial in understanding the overarching ramifications of war, but solely focusing on this aspect can only give you part of the picture. "Basetrack Live" attempts to correct this oversight in many ways.
