‘They Shall Not Grow Old’ is an immersive marvel

irector Peter Jackson is up- front about what audiences

Dshould not expect from his un- AP PHOTO conventional World War I docu- mentary, “They Shall Not Grow Old.” This is a film made by a non-historian for an audience of non-historians, he says. There are no dates, names or locations. Neither are there any talking heads or historians or politics. It’s just images and the voices of those who were there, telling their own stories. And the result is riveting — an immersive, haunting and often transcendent experience that’s unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. That’s because Jackson has done something revolutionary by restoring, co- lorizing and adding 3D depth to hundred-year-old footage from the archives of the Imperial War Museum, depicting everything from basic training to the tren- A scene from the WWI documentary “They Shall Not Grow Old,” directed by Peter Jackson ches.

NEWS OF THE WORLD Kristin M. Hall, AP Grammy-nominated album shines light on transgender pioneer

or decades, Jackie Shane was a musical mystery: a riveting Fblack transgender soul singer AP PHOTO who packed nightclubs in Toronto in the 1960s, but then disappeared after 1971. Some speculated she had died, but her legacy lived on among music historians and R&B collectors who paid big money for her vinyl records. But in 2010, the Canadian Broad- casting Company produced an audio documentary about her, awakening a wider interest in the pioneering singer. Today her face is painted on a massive 20-story musical mural in Toronto with other influential musi- cians like Muddy Waters. In 2014, Douglas Mcgowan, an A&R scout for archival Numero Group, finally reached her via phone in Nashville, Tennessee, where she was born in 1940. After much effort, Mcgowan got her agree to work with them on a remarkable two-CD set of her live and studio re- cordings that was released in 2017 called “Any Other Way,” which has been nominated for best histori- cal album at this year’s Grammy Awards.

Inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s tales The Snow Queen and The Ice Maiden, The Icebook is the world’s first projection mapped pop-up book, a theatrical installation depicting a silent fable: a mysterious princess lures a boy into her magical world to warm her heart of ice. Made from paper cutouts and light, it is designed to give audience an intimate and immersive experience of film, theatre and animation that will sweep you right into the heart of a fantasy world!
