Red Widow and the Complexities of Generational Sin

Last updated on: March 7, 2013 at 7:29 am   By Geoffrey Reiter

In the standard cultural and popular nomenclature, widows are black.  But it is likely appropriate that ABC’s newest drama, which premiered its first two episodes Sunday night, is entitled Red Widow.  For the show deliberately eschews black-and-white dichotomies, in its overall execution and particularly in its scrutiny upon the eponymous widow, who enters the business of drug smuggling as a means of attempting to extricate her children from a mess created by her extended family. Radha Mitchell plays the central... Read more

The Moviegoer: The Side Effects of Hopelessness

Last updated on: March 7, 2013 at 9:33 am   By Nick Olson

Each week in The Moviegoer, Nick Olson examines new and upcoming films. ***Spoiler Alert*** Set with great effect to a memorably haunting Thomas Newman score, Steven Soderbergh’s Side Effects begins as a puzzle to be pieced together by giving the viewer a flash-forward glimpse of an apartment floor spoiled with fresh blood. The film is framed so as to leave the viewer with a foreboding sense of impending violence. After sufficiently provoking us with the question of what is going to... Read more

So Rob Bell Wrote Another Book about God—Some Thoughts before Actually Reading It

Last updated on: March 6, 2013 at 9:35 am   By Derek Rishmawy

Article originally posted at Derek Rishmawy’s Reformedish blog, derekzrishmawy.com. A couple of years ago, Rob Bell wrote a little book about Heaven, Hell, and all that God stuff. You might have heard of it. If you haven’t, don’t worry about it—he didn’t say anything new. (Or necessarily very good. I’ll be honest, even though I was a Bell fan in college, I was pretty disappointed with that last book.) In any case, it kicked off a little bit of a crap-storm in the... Read more

Dow Jones Hits Record High! Politicians Worry about Economy

Last updated on: March 6, 2013 at 8:13 am   By Brad Williams

Facebook is where Chicken Little lives. Each day, I am bombarded with messages about the different doomsday scenarios we are faced with as Americans. From gun control, to the decisions of the President, to the incompetence of Congress—my Facebook feed is a steady stream of how terrible things are right now. This also includes how the economy is crashing, the debt cannot possibly be paid off, and that the $85 billion dollar sequester is going to get everyone laid off... Read more

God and Country Music: Ronnie Fauss and the Narrative Heart of No Depression

Last updated on: March 6, 2013 at 4:21 am   By Nick Rynerson

Each week in God and Country Music, Nick Rynerson gives country music a chance and examines the world of Americana, folk, alt-country, and popular country music. Great Americana music isn’t too difficult to find, at least if you are searching for it. Not because there is an abundance of it but because you can tell who gets Americana music (or No Depression) by looking at their influences and the bands they cover. And slowly, one great artist will lead you to... Read more

Bunheads: Why the Ballerinas Deserve a Call-Back

Last updated on: March 5, 2013 at 9:37 am   By Amy Lepine Peterson

Last week I watched what may have been my last episode of “Bunheads” ever.  And I’m willing to admit – unabashedly – that the possibility of a future bereft of “Bunheads” is more than a little sad. The hour-long ABC Family dramedy created by Amy Sherman-Palladino (of “Gilmore Girls” fame) aired its winter finale Monday, with no word from the network regarding the possibility of a second season. Though the show has only garnered a mediocre viewership compared to the... Read more
