Live Forever
If you’re a ‘Requiem For A Dream’ fan, leave now," the deep-voiced, scruffy, thirty-something Brooklynite commanded an anxious audience of admirers at Superb’s Wheeler screening of "The Fountain” last month. This may not have been the most appropriate or expected thing to say coming from the Harvard grad, considering that his new film, “The Fountain,” is only his third, and while he has garnered the respect and acclaim from selected critics for his first two projects, the name Darren Aronofsky remains, for the most part, foreign.

See You on YouTube
I love YouTube, and not just because it allows me to watch cartoons. It’s become a powerful tool for information and accountability. But there may be unintended consequences of the recent explosion in the ability to record and monitor politicians and political figures. YouTube might just make the problems of mindless talking-points and partisan spin worse rather than better.

CD Review
In the decades after their demise, the Beatles and Apple Corps Ltd., the group’s corporate apparatus, have fought a well-documented battle to preserve the integrity of the band’s catalogue. From the crackdown on Apple Computer to legal pressure aimed at the likes of DJ Danger Mouse (thanks to his ultra-influential Jay-Z-Beatles mash-up The Grey Album), it’s been hard for anyone to put their stamp on the Beatles’ legacy who aren’t the Beatles.
