"I always deserve the best treatment because I never put up with any other," observes charming control freak Emma Woodhouse in Jane Austen's novel. Handsome, clever, and rich, Emma Woodhouse is a restless queen bee without rivals in her sleepy little town. In this glittering satire of social class and the pain of growing up, Emma must push through misguided matches and romantic missteps to find the love that has been there all along. PG / 2 hr 5 mins. TRAILER / REVIEWS Corpus Christi March 13 - 19: Fri-Sat 3:10 5:40 Sun 5:40 Mon Tue 8:00 Wed Thur 5:40 (Poland / 2019 / Directed by Jan Komasa) Nominated for Best International Feature, this Polish drama (based on a true story) tells the story of a young man who, upon his release from a juvenile detention center, journeys to a small mountain town where he assumes the role of a Catholic priest. While in the youth detention center, 20-year-old Daniel (Bartosz Bielenia) experiences a spiritual transformation. Although the crime he has committed prevents him from applying to the seminary, Daniel has no intention of giving up on his dream - once released on parole, he is sent to work at a sawmill, but soon assumes the role of priest in the small-town parish. As he becomes acquainted with the lives of the locals, he learns of a tragedy that has caused a rift within the town. Through his unconventional yet passionate preaching style, he attempts to unify the villagers and heal the divided community; there is, however, an aggression in Daniel which lies barely restrained beneath the surface. With expressive acting and a backdrop that is both beautiful and haunting, CORPUS CHRISTI is a stirring piece of filmmaking that touches on themes of judgement, hypocrisy, acceptance, and what it means to truly forgive.

The film follows Robertson's personal journey from Toronto as a teenage whiz-kid guitar-slinger, too young to get into the clubs where he played every night with rockabilly Ronnie Hawkins, to touring with Bob Dylan in 1966 and on to international fame as one of The Band. Robertson was only 24 when he and Levon Helm, Rick Danko, Richard Manuel and Garth Hudson recorded their groundbreaking debut album, Music From Big Pink. This period, the mid-1960s through the early 1970s, was a time of cultural and political upheaval as well as when some of the most enduring and influential rock music was made. ONCE WERE BROTHERS... joins a growing list of recent documentaries, including ECHO IN THE CANYON, DAVID CROSBY: REMEMBER MY NAME, and Scorsese's ROLLING THUNDER REVUE, which have examined the music and musicians of this remarkably fertile period. The film is more than tinged with sadness and pain. R / 1 hr 42 mins.

THEN CAME YOU is a sweet, uplifting tale that reminds us it's not how long we live, but how we live the life we have, that matters. The film tells the story of Skye (Maisie Williams), a spunky teenager with a terminal illness who befriends Calvin (Asa Butterfield), a 19-year old hypochondriac who is afraid of his own shadow. Calvin helps Skye carry out her eccentric bucket list. In the process, he learns to confront and conquer his own fears, including falling in love with the beautiful, but seemingly untouchable, Izzy (Nina Dobrev). Unrated / 1 hr 37 mins.

Hoping to marry off her daughter to an Italian royal, a wealthy contessa (Valerie Golino) commissions an artist (Noémie Merlant) to come live at her Brittany estate where she's to make a portrait of her daughter Héloïse (Adèle Haenel). Easier said than done, as Héloïse has just come home after a long stint in a strict convent and is not thinking of marriage, arranged or otherwise. Therefore, Marianne must pose as a hired companion and paint Héloïse in secret - from memory - so that the her mother can make a deal for her hand without her knowledge. This is the fourth feature from French filmmaker Céline Sciamma (GIRLHOOD) and is a confidently crafted period drama that is traditional in its formal beauty and progressive in its treatment of romance between women.

  • 1974 Tour with the Band
    BOB DYLAN / THE BAND (a collectors guide to the 74 Tour) BOB DYLAN / THE BAND - a collectors guide to the 74 Tour “There are two problems with the 1974 tour: the tapes are crap and Dylan‟s performances are crap.” – C. Heylin, Telegraph 32 pg 86. Introduction This booklet / File (like the anonymous companion volume “Songs of the Underground” for RTR) is intended to document the audio resources available to collectors concerning the 1974 tour with the Band. It is intended to supplement and possibly correct the three major resources available to collectors (Krogsgaard, Dundas & Olof‟s files). Several PA tapes have emerged since Krogsgaard was last updated, and (I believe) there are errors in Dundas (concerning the PA tapes from 11 Feb 1974) that I wished to address. Additionally, none of these references (except for one full listing in Krogsgaard) include the Band sets. While details are difficult to obtain, I have included details of about three- quarters of the Band sets. It is hoped that readers on the web may contribute more information. I believe that the Band was a significant contributor to the 1974 Tour and should be included in any 1974 Tour documentation. I have also identified the sources for the Vinyl and CD bootlegs, where my resources allowed. Often the attributions on Bootlegs are misleading, incomplete or wrong. As an example „Before and After the Flood‟ claims to be from MSG NYC 30.1.1974 when it is actually a combination of the PA tapes from 31.1.74 (evening) and 11.2.74 (evening).

  • Bob Dylan and the Reimagining of Woody Guthrie (January 1968)
    Woody Guthrie Annual, 4 (2018): Carney, “With Electric Breath” “With Electric Breath”: Bob Dylan and the Reimagining of Woody Guthrie (January 1968) Court Carney In 1956, police in New Jersey apprehended Woody Guthrie on the presumption of vagrancy. Then in his mid-40s, Guthrie would spend the next (and last) eleven years of his life in various hospitals: Greystone Park in New Jersey, Brooklyn State Hospital, and, finally, the Creedmoor Psychiatric Center, where he died. Woody suffered since the late 1940s when the symptoms of Huntington’s disease first appeared—symptoms that were often confused with alcoholism or mental instability. As Guthrie disappeared from public view in the late 1950s, 1,300 miles away, Bob Dylan was in Hibbing, Minnesota, learning to play doo-wop and Little Richard covers. 1 Young Dylan was about to have his career path illuminated after attending one of Buddy Holly’s final shows. By the time Dylan reached New York in 1961, heavily under the influence of Woody’s music, Guthrie had been hospitalized for almost five years and with his motor skills greatly deteriorated. This meeting between the still stylistically unformed Dylan and Woody—far removed from his 1940s heyday—had the makings of myth, regardless of the blurred details. Whatever transpired between them, the pilgrimage to Woody transfixed Dylan, and the young Minnesotan would go on to model his early career on the elder songwriter’s legacy. More than any other of Woody’s acolytes, Dylan grasped the totality of Guthrie’s vision. Beyond mimicry (and Dylan carefully emulated Woody’s accent, mannerisms, and poses), Dylan almost preternaturally understood the larger implication of Guthrie in ways that eluded other singers and writers at the time.2 As his career took off, however, Dylan began to slough off the more obvious Guthrieisms as he moved towards his electric-charged poetry of 1965-1966.

  • Making Changes Happe Making Changes Happen in Terra
    CHAPTER ONE MAKING CHANGES HAPPEHAPPENN IN TERRA INCOGNITA A Process of Re-enactment I picked up my New York Times on April 20, 2012 and read that Levon Helm had died. I quietly turned to the obituary page and as I read what was written about this man, memories flooded back to me. The drinking age was twenty-one so we had to sneak in the back door off Yonge Street, Toronto’s main drag. It was a seedy section of the street below Bloor then, lined with strip joints and bars, and because of this it was one of places where you could go and hear exciting music in the early sixties. I was there with my friend, John. The two of us were freshly admitted undergraduate students at the University of Waterloo and anxious to make early marks in life. So we became concert promoters. This was a short career because even then concerts were presented by organized thugs and there was no room for amateurs like us. On one occasion we brought into town a singer who had a number one hit in Canada, Ronnie Hawkins and his band, known then as the Hawks. We got to know Ronnie pretty well and he was kind to us ingénues. About two weeks after the concert we got a phone call from Ronnie’s manager inviting us to come into the city and watch the band play for what he called an interview. So, on a Friday afternoon John and I crammed into our friend Ted’s Porsche 356 and headed down Highway 401.

  • Scobie on I'm Not There
    I’M NOT THERE (1956-2007) Stephen Scobie Je est un autre—Arthur Rimbaud I’m Not There (2007) In this autumn season of 2007, I can see that I am going to be thinking a lot about the Bob Dylan song known as “I’m Not There (1956).” At least, that is the title given to it on most of its early, bootleg appearances. Now that it has finally been officially released, the sub-title date has been dropped—which is a pity (since it added an element of mystery to the song) but also understandable (since no good explanation of the date has ever been given). “I’m Not There” is perhaps the ultimate Dylan bootleg, and has always been a subject for cult idealization as the most obscure of Dylan’s “lost” songs: a major master- piece that almost no one knows, and which indeed seems to conspire actively against being known. Now, it has become the title of Todd Haynes’s movie I’m Not There, “inspired by the music and many lives of Bob Dylan”—“many” being the operative word. The film is already famous for casting six different actors to play aspects of Dylan at different points in his career. If this strategy is a gimmick, it is a successful one: the film is generating vast amounts of advance publicity, much of it based on the photographs of Cate Blanchett looking, uncannily and androgynously, like 1966 Bob. The film is not due for North American release until late November, though it has played in prestigious festivals like Toronto, New York, and Venice.

  • Colin Linden – Blow Biography
    Colin Linden – bLOW Biography “Got a coin in my pocket heavy and gold/It don’t own me I need to let it go/Cause having is wanting/Desire can make you weep” – “bLOW” Colin Linden’s tale is the stuff of legend, the kind told in the Coen brothers’ O Brother Where Art Thou or Inside Llewyn Davis, both of which featured his guitar playing on the soundtracks. That film would begin with an 11-year-old meeting his musical idol Howlin’ Wolf at a matinee show in his native Toronto, accompanied by his mom, who took a picture of the two during a nearly two-hour long conversation before the gig, the legendary bluesman idling over coffee and cigarettes. “I’m an old man now, and I won’t be around much longer,” Wolf told him. “It’s up to you to carry it on.” Linden still carries that frayed photograph in his wallet, along with a Sears 5/8” socket wrench in his pocket to play slide guitar. He has taken Wolf’s plea seriously, performing since he was 12 years old, leaving home as a teenager to travel the south at the invitation of Mississippi Sheiks delta blues guitarist Sam Chatmon which took him to Detroit, Chicago, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Memphis and Hollandale, Mississippi, meeting and visiting the sites of his heroes – Brownie McGhee, Muddy Waters, Sippie Wallace, Tampa Red, Blind John Davis, the Rev. Robert Wilkins, Sleepy John Estes and Son House, visiting the landmarks and juke joints, many of which he’s played in during the course of a 45-year career producing and playing blues and roots music.

  • Eric Garth Hudson Years: August 2, 1937- Present Residence
    6. Name: Eric Garth Hudson Years: August 2, 1937- Present Residence: West Saugerties, New York near Woodstock Brief Biography: Born in Windsor, Ontario, Hudson was the son of musicians. He attended University of Western Ontario for music. As a child he played organ during services at St. Luke’s Anglican Church. He found a niche when he joined a rock and roll group, the Capers, from 1958 through 1961. From 1961 till 1963 he became the music consultant, organist, and saxophonist for Ronnie Hawkins and the Hawks. Hawkins split from the group in ’63. In 1966 the Hawks were introduced to Bob Dylan and accompanied him on a tour. At the conclusion of the long tour the band bought and lived in a pink house in West Saugerties, New York near Woodstock. By 1968 the Hawks became known as The Band and released their debuted album Music From Big Pink. Up until 1976, the Band toured and recorded around the world. This final concert was recorded in Martin Scorsese’s film, “The Last Waltz.” After the split, Hudson collaborated with many musicians to make albums as well as directors on soundtracks such as “The Right Stuff” and Martin Scorsese’s films “Raging Bull”. The Band often reunited in the 80s and 90s. In 1991, he moved back to Woodstock and recorded three more albums with the Band. In 2001 he released his first solo album. Major Achievements: Garth was inducted into the JUNO Hall of Fame (The Band), 1989, The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (The Band), 1994, Hamilton Dofasco Lifetime of Achievement Award (The Band), 2007, and Grammy Lifetime of Achievement Award (The Band), 2008.

  • Psaudio Copper
    Issue 133 MARCH 29TH, 2021 Copper has a new look! So does the rest of the PS Audio website, the result of countless hours of hard work. There's more functionality and easier access to articles, and additional developments will come. There will be some temporary glitches and some tweaks required – like high-end audio systems, magazines sometimes need tweaking too – but overall, we're excited to provide a better and more enjoyable reading experience. I now hand over the column to our esteemed Larry Schenbeck: Dear Copper Colleagues and Readers, Frank has graciously asked if I’d like to share a word or two about my intention to stop writing Too Much Tchaikovsky. So: thanks to everyone who read and enjoyed it – I wrote it for you. If you added comments occasionally, you made my day. I also wrote the column so I could keep learning, especially about emerging creatives and performers in classical music. Getting the chance to stumble upon something new and nourishing had sustained me in the academic world – it certainly wasn’t the money! – and I was grateful to continue that in Copper. So why stop? Because, as they say, there is a season. It has become considerably harder for me to stumble upon truly fresh sounds and then write freshly thereon. Here I am tempted to quote Douglas Adams or Satchel Paige, who both knew how to deliver an exit line. But I’ll just say (since Frank has promised to leave the light on), goodbye for now. The door is open, Larry, and we can’t thank you enough for your wonderful contributions.

  • Garth Hudson's Posture Looked Familiar Sunday As He Played Keyboards with the Dixie Hummingbirds - Hunched Over the Organ in a Possessed, Mad-Scientist Manner
    NEWPORT - If you saw the movie "The Last Waltz," Garth Hudson's posture looked familiar Sunday as he played keyboards with the Dixie Hummingbirds - hunched over the organ in a possessed, mad-scientist manner. Hudson played on the veteran gospel group's latest CD and was a featured player during the Apple & Eve Newport Folk Festival. And if you've heard Hudson speak, it all makes sense. He's dedicated much of his life to performing roots music - folk playing, blues, brass arrangements, country and gospel - and passing along his knowledge. Hudson, who grew up in Canada, is a multi-instrumentalist who made his name with The Band in the 1960s until that group's original lineup ended things in 1976. Since then, he's performed in a 1990s version of The Band and with a variety of groups that play an array of styles. And he shares what he knows with younger musicians. During a recent tour of Ireland, Hudson, 67, said he met with Irish musicians and master accordionists (he plays accordion, piano, organ and saxophone) to talk about their craft and ways to improve. "Before I was done, I would get together about 40 minutes worth of tips," he said during an interview at the Folk Festival. One man, a music teacher, came back twice. "We'd have the performance and then sit back after it was over and talk about music, different ways of doing things," he said. "I enjoy helping musicians. It's always been that way." In "The Last Waltz," Robbie Robertson talks about how Hudson billed himself as a music teacher early on, when the group was the Hawks and backed singer Ronnie Hawkins, and later Bob Dylan.
