SPRING GET AWAY!!!

TROPICAL BOTANICAL ART WORKSHOP

BRYAN STEVENSON with LILIANA

SEGURA

WEDNESDAY 15 JANUARY AT 7PM LENSIC PERFORMING ARTS CENTER One of the great tragedies in this country was that we had generations of people who were raised and taught and told that they were better than other people because of the color of their skin. And there is nothing more abusive that you can do to a child or to a community than to persuade them that their worldview should be shaped by a lie, and that they should experience everything and interpret everything through that lie. And because we haven’t talked about that lie, a lot of what we say and what we do reflects an identity that is complicated and compromised by this history. — Bryan Stevenson, www.AL.com, 31 December 2012

Bryan Stevenson is the founder and executive director of the Equal Justice Initiative (EJI), a nonprofit organization headquartered in Montgomery, Alabama, and a professor at New York University School of Law. He has gained national acclaim for his work challenging the U.S. legal system’s biases against the incarcerated, the poor and people of color. EJI recently won a historic ruling in the U.S. Supreme Court, holding that mandatory life imprisonment without parole sentences for children seventeen years or younger is unconstitutional. Stevenson has been awarded the ACLU National Medal of Liberty, the National Public Interest Lawyer of the Year Award and the NAACP Ming Award for Advocacy for his work. His appearance with Lannan

THE SANTA FE NEW MEXICAN

January 3 - 9, 2014

www.pasatiempomagazine.com

On the cOver 17 thirtysomething Thirtysomething years ago the mighty New Mexican pondered its arts coverage and thought: Let’s kick it up a notch. Although the paper had for many years hosted a culture section on Fridays (printed on pink newsprint for reasons we don’t entirely understand), the decision was made to go tabloid, use staples, and put out a magazine. At first it was called Weekend, later renamed Pasatiempo. It was the ’80s, and Nuevo-Santa Fe style had permeated the arts: painting, sculpture, and — ill-advisedly, as we now know — interior decorating. Was this trend the inspiration for a new publishing venture? It’s probably best that nobody around our offices can remember. But whatever the reason, the rest is Pasatiempo. This special issue delivers glimpses of Pasa’s pages, from its beginnings through the current year. Kudos and applause to Pasa’s staff — especially designer Lori Johnson, who pored over the stacks, seeking morsels for this week’s pages.

Disorder in the court: Game of Thrones Three seasons of palace intrigue, changing loyalties, and dragons fill the Jean Cocteau Cinema (418 Montezuma Ave., 505-466-5528) over the course of 12 weeks with screenings of the HBO show Game of Thrones beginning Monday, Jan. 6. The cinema’s owner, George R.R. Martin, is better known as the author of A Song of Ice and Fire, the series of fantasy novels on which the TV show is based. Partly because of the production values of the show — its pilot is estimated to have cost HBO as much as $10 million — and its popularity (the third season finale drew about 5.4 million viewers), Martin thought the series would lend itself to the movie screen. “The show just looked great on the big screen,” Martin said. “And I thought, you know, it’d be great if regular people … had the opportunity to see the show on the big screen.” In addition to the experience of munching on popcorn while watching the land of Westeros come under the rule of a sadistic teenager, the screenings will also feature question-and-answer sessions with Game of Thrones cast and crew, via Skype or in person. Though Martin is still working on securing appearances, he confirmed that showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss would make a Skype appearance at one of the screenings. Martin will be at as many of the screenings as possible. He’s still working on the final two books in the series. Admission to the screenings is free on a first-come, first-served basis. Screenings, at 7 p.m., begin on Jan. 6 and continue on Mondays throughout January and (more or less) weekly through March 24. See the full schedule at www.jeancocteaucinema.com. — David J. Salazar

STAR CODES

Heather Roan Robbins

Let’s pace ourselves; the astrological aspects are wild as the new year begins, and even if they’re not tap-dancing on our personal charts, they resonate around us. Children turn a developmental corner, new laws kick into place, and so much happens, or feels like it is about to happen, that we can feel stretched thin unless we husband our energies and support one another. Mercury, the sun, and Pluto conjunct in Capricorn all week and bring our minds to the real tasks of our time. Together they oppose expansive Jupiter in Cancer and square active Mars in Libra and electrifying Uranus in Aries; all form an exciting, tense, potential-filled grand square that colors the whole year ahead. Most of us will be fine and just feel tugged in different directions or challenged by some complex situation. We get an inkling of trouble spots and powerful opportunities that could erupt in April when this grand cross perfects, and we get a few months to prepare. The first full post-holiday week begins with a charge. Give everyone a few hours on Monday to acclimatize, and then kick into high gear as the moon enters assertive Aries, conjuncts Uranus, and rings that grand square like a gong.

Friday, Jan. 3: We may feel energized but overbooked as Mercury opposes Jupiter; let’s try to keep it simple instead. We are opinionated, pushy but curious, and open to creative solutions as long as we’re diplomatic. Later, a tired or more formal mood can leave dinnertime subdued.

Hours by Appointment • 1925 Aspen Drive, Ste. 500-B Accepting Most Insurance

Saturday, Jan. 4: Sleep in and avoid the grumpiness as the moon challenges Uranus and Pluto this morning. The mood becomes dreamy, imaginative, and softer-hearted as the moon enters intuitive Pisces. Low energy or shyness may curtail our plans; a tender streak keeps us more private. Do not make excuses or guilt-trip others; just listen to inner priorities and send clear signals. Watch for problems with ice or in fuel lines. Sunday, Jan. 5: It’s a sensitively optimistic morning, good for dreams, prayers, and intuitive connection as the sun opposes Jupiter. Don’t overschedule. We’re belligerent, poetic, and organized, but strong opinions can hurt feelings. Tonight, make concrete plans around recent dreams. Monday, Jan. 6: Think ahead and strategize as Mercury sextiles Saturn. Let people arrive and reconnect. Don’t expect much until the moon enters Aries around noon. Then kick into high gear. The mood gets impatient, assertive, and pushy; let’s not jerk people’s chains just for the fun of it or manipulate others into doing what we can do ourselves. Tuesday, Jan. 7: Changes are afoot; our impulse control is down and our need for spontaneity up as the moon conjuncts Uranus. Morning is more argumentative. Come to grips with an awkward limitation and make productive decisions in response. Evening asks us to passionately speak our mind in a kind, organized way as Venus conjuncts Mercury in Capricorn. Wednesday, Jan. 8: This morning unsettled, confused emotions can mix the signals as the Aries moon squares Venus and Mercury. Let the dust settle before making decisions. This afternoon, the conditions can be hard to read and the mood feisty as Mars squares Jupiter, so get centered, keep eyes open, and fight only the good fight. It’s a good time to file a lawsuit, but choose arguments carefully. Thursday, Jan. 9: Keep an easy, solid rhythm as the moon enters earthy Taurus. Be there for one another in subtle ways, and engage common sense without righteousness. Interesting karmic connections can come through for us; our good works resonate back to us. Tonight, gratitude helps us see fresh options ◀ www.roanrobbins.com

Prior to moving to Seattle in the late-1980s, Jasper received a BA from the University of New Mexico for directing. In the subsequent years she built a reputation in the Seattle theater community for being outlandish and innovative. Her latest work, I Can Hear You … But I’m Not Listening, explores with humor “the dark and uncomfortable moments of growing up.” Shows take place at 8 p.m. Thursday and Friday, Jan. 9 and 10, at Teatro Paraguas Studio (3205 Calle Marie). Tickets are $18; discounts available. For reservations, call 505-424-1601. — L.B.

A program of good, down-home music — promising to offer both grit and loveliness — is set for 8 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 7, as Quenby Landiorio, René Reyes, and Sean Devine take the stage at Cowgirl BBQ. Landiorio (aka “Q”) is a guitarist and singer specializing in the domains of country and Americana. Her Q & the WOW Band plays Mary Gauthier, Waylon Jennings, and Lucinda Williams, as well as original songs. Santa Fe’s Reyes is described as a “Latin-laced post-modern high-desert noir altcountry singer-songwriter.” Montana musician Devine carries on the country-music traditions of his great-great-grandfather. There is no cover charge for the show; Cowgirl BBQ (505-982-2565) is at 319 S. Guadalupe St. — P.W.

Bach and Blake: Serenata of Santa Fe

The Spanish mezzo-soprano Consuelo Sañudo has been especially active in the field of early music, having performed and recorded with such notable groups as Sequentia, Weser Renaissance, and Las Huelgas Ensemble, but contemporary music and golden-age lieder have also staked places on her résumé. She will be the featured vocalist in a wide-ranging program by Serenata of Santa Fe at 3 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 5, at El Museo Cultural, 555 Camino de la Familia. The concert’s capstone is Bach’s Cantata No. 199 (“Mein Herz schwimmt im Blut”), which also features Pamela Epple, the group’s oboist; and the two will also collaborate in Vaughan Williams’ “Ten Blake Songs,” composed in 1957 for a film documentary about the visionary poet and artist William Blake. The playlist also includes songs by Ravel and Reynaldo Hahn, the premiere of a new solo-harpsichord work by Ron McKean (performed by Kathleen McIntosh) as well as his “Sacred Harp Dyads” (for Baroque violin and harpsichord), and the overture from David Dies’ Hemingway-derived opera “Hills Like White Elephants.” Tickets ($25) are available through Tickets Santa Fe at the Lensic (505-988-1234, www.ticketssantafe. org) and at the door (discounts available). — J.M.K.

Blues, brews, and you: Blue Monday

Judy Steele

James T. Baker may not have sold his soul to the devil, but his blues songs still possess some of the diabolic vitality of Delta blues pioneer Robert Johnson. He stresses authenticity through simplicity in his playing, and unlike many blues guitarists who channel the legends of the past, Baker writes original material. After years as a professional horn player, he took a musical hiatus of almost 20 years to raise children — until the music of Muddy Waters yanked him into the world of blues. He explains, “The Delta blues, the old-style, this was the sound I had been looking for all my life. Simple, direct, unpretentious, real. Just a voice with a guitar, singing about the pain and disappointment of life.” Baker plays at Duel Brewing (1228 Parkway Drive, 505-474-5301, www. duelbrewing.com) at 6 p.m. Monday, Jan. 6. There is no charge for the show. — L.B.

PASA MEMORIES elebrating 30 years of Pasatiempo has a special meaning for me. It was 30 years ago that I first became aware of the publication, and it has played a big part in my life since then. I first came to Santa Fe in the summer of 1983 to sing in the inaugural season of the Santa Fe Desert Chorale under founder Lawrence Bandfield. The very first day the ensemble worked together, a Santa Fe New Mexican photographer came over to Palen Hall at the Church of the Holy Faith to take pictures of the group in rehearsal. We were excited to know that the city’s main newspaper was going to cover our concerts — all performers, no matter their training or genre, are inveterate publicity hounds — and eagerly awaited the story in Pasatiempo. We religiously checked throughout the rest of that season, every time Pasa came out, to see what the preview stories and the reviews said. After that first season, I went to work for the chorale for three years, so my association with Pasa continued in a different key — as a member of the staff of a performingarts organization, helping to keep our activities in front of the publication’s eyes. As before, we assiduously courted the magazine and anxiously paid attention to the kind of coverage we received. I then spent two and a half years in Chicago but had friends send me regular shipments of The New Mexican and Pasa. Once a Santa Fean, always a Santa Fean. When I moved back to New Mexico, I wanted to continue the arts reviewing and writing I had started during my early days here. I was warned that the theneditor of Pasatiempo, Denise Kusel, was both a fine editor and a tough personality, known to sometimes eat writers alive. After some initial skirmishes, she agreed to give me a shot — and in 1990, a relationship with the publication began. I have continued through today, both as a freelancer and, for 12 lively years, as a staff member. In the 1990s, The New Mexican was located just in the main office at 202 E. Marcy St.; the current remodeled downtown building and the large printing plant south of town were far in the future. Having advertising, layout, pre-press, the newsroom, accounting, and the printing

press itself under one roof made for quarters that one might call cozy but that were actually tight to the point of having desks jammed against each other. Silence, never common currency in a newsroom, was nonexistent. Pasa was at one end of the newsroom, right up against a hall that led outside. The press was just on the other side of nearby double swinging doors, and when the newspaper was being run off, the vibrations permeated the floor and walls. Back then, stories were written using a simple computer word-processing program, with green letters on a black background. Editing sometimes took place in the program, but more often on paper printouts. A first-class (for the times) modem let reporters and freelance writers send stories in over the wires to be imported into the system. When it came time for layout, each page of Pasa was plotted out by hand, with such now-vanished tools of the newsroom as pica poles and proportional wheels. Like all the other New Mexican publications, it was laid out in “cold type” — stories printed out in long columns on special paper, which then were run through a waxing machine and affixed by hand to the master pages. Any corrections had to be run off again, and words — or single characters — carefully cut out and replaced using an X-Acto knife. “Jumps,” where a story went from its first page to another page farther back in the publication, had to be carefully planned and proofed. The cover and the few pages that used color were not laid out in cold type but came in four different printouts of negatives for four-color printing, each of which also had to be proofed. Layout day was always tense, with a sense of looming deadlines that made for irritability as well as action: We knew that the camera operator was waiting to shoot the pages so that the output could be made into metal plates to go on the press for running that evening. Fast forward to today, 23 years later. Pasatiempo is written, edited, designed, and laid out with modern equipment. The magazine is a full-color delight to read, with a careful balance of advertising and editorial content. And content is still invariably wide-ranging. There are pieces about art, opera, film, and chamber music. Jazz, ballet, flamenco, and popular music

receive coverage. Writers comment on theater, books, authors, and contemporary-art projects. Stories on historical topics, big research stories, and interviews with artists, scientists, and educators offer special viewpoints. And of course, there is the detailed and always eagerly anticipated weekly calendar, one of the magazine’s most venerated features. If it’s happening in the arts in Santa Fe, it’s going to be in Pasatiempo. Press releases come in by email these days rather than through the mail, FedEx, or UPS, but the publication still gets hundreds of communiqués each week — as many as several hundred per day. It’s something of a relief to have them in digital format rather than otherwise, though some of the attention-getting toys that came with releases, especially from movie companies, are missed. One time a press release came crumpled up in a good-sized wire wastebasket, which was both an invitation to read it and a temptation to dump it into the local circular file and keep the snazzy new basket. Another time an inflatable Christmas tree, complete with blow-up ornaments, came advertising a film. Sometimes, after a story that an organization especially appreciated, a thank-you card or even a box of candy or a bouquet of flowers would arrive. They were nice to get, but the satisfaction of knowing Pasa had done its job was generally thanks enough. Complaints came in too, of course, and still do. They are a constant in newspaper work. Through all the days and challenges, one thing has never changed. The staff works just as hard as ever, and with just as much attention to detail and accuracy. The staff’s commitment can be traced not only to their own sense of professionalism but also to the guidance of the publication’s editors. Since 1983, there have been just five editors keeping the magazine on track: Jon Bowman, Denise Kusel, Hollis Walker, Camille Flores, and, since 2002, Kristina Melcher. Their cumulative work, along with that of the staff and freelancers, has won Pasa not only the preeminent position in arts coverage in the state but also numerous statewide, regional, and national awards of note. And the real reward comes every week, when one can hear newspaper purchasers say over and over, “I read it in Pasatiempo. — Craig Smith

Men behaving badly Jonathan Richards I For The New Mexican The Wolf of Wall Street, drama, rated R, Regal Stadium 14, 3 chiles Martin Scorsese’s celebration of chicanery and gluttony in the world of finance literally picks up where Oliver Stone’s Wall Street left off. As Stone’s “greed is good” epic was coiled in the can, awaiting its December 1987 release, the runaway market whose portrait it painted crashed on the Black Monday of Oct. 19. One of the careers it nipped in the posterior belonged to a young man named Jordan Belfort (Leonardo DiCaprio), who was beginning work at L.F. Rothschild as a licensed broker. Jordan was down but not out. He had done his apprenticeship under a scoundrel named Mark Hanna, played here by a brilliant Matthew McConaughey (still gaunt from Dallas Buyers Club). Hanna, preaching cocaine and self-abuse as the keys to success, had brushed the scales of innocent idealism from Jordan’s eyes and shown him the full glory of mammon spread out before him in the form of faceless suckers begging to be fleeced. When disaster struck, Jordan was ready to seize it as opportunity. But we, along with Scorsese, are getting ahead of ourselves. The movie, adapted by Terence Winter from Belfort’s memoir, begins with the wolf at his predatory peak, speaking directly to us from his Gatsby-esque mansion on Long Island, where he revels in ill-gotten but vastly enjoyed gains that include wall-to-wall drugs, acres of naked women, and money, money, money. He then takes us back to where it all started. When the market crashed, Jordan took a desk in a Long Island strip-mall boiler-room brokerage and showed

the yokels how to make a killing selling penny stocks to postmen and plumbers. He surrounded himself with a cadre of bright but bush-league local boys; taught them how to walk, talk, dress, and sell; and shaped them into a team that would pass as Wall Street wizards. He came up with an impressively oldmoney-sounding corporate name, Stratton Oakmont, and began piling up millions on the backs of poor schmucks whose life savings he cheerfully made his own. Stratton Oakmont employed a technique, patently illegal, known as “pump and dump,” where brokers artificially inflate the price of a cheap stock and then bail out, leaving their clients holding the empty bag. Soon Jordan and his good fellas, led by his partner in crime Donnie Azoff (Jonah Hill), were rolling in dough and partying like there was no tomorrow, which by all rights there shouldn’t have been. Among the trappings of this success were office dwarf-tossing contests, exotic cars, yachts, helicopters, and bare bottoms and breasts that served, among other things, as surfaces off of which to snort cocaine. Because Scorsese and Winter are making a nod’sas-good-as-a-wink pass at a morality tale here, there is some comeuppance to be served before it’s all over. Belfort was convicted of stock fraud, which cost him a fine of $110.4 million and 22 months in a federal prison that his cellmate Tommy Chong (of Cheech and Chong) has described as posher than a lot of Manhattan hotels. But this is not a story calculated to dissuade viewers from the evils of getting rich quick and dirty. And in truth, Belfort’s shenanigans differed only in style from the larcenous behavior that a few years later would sink some white-shoe Wall Street giants and the economy. In truth, Scorsese has no more concern for the victims than did Belfort. The Wolf of Wall Street dazzles, but it doesn’t do it consistently. The movie is astonishingly repetitious. Scorsese wows with his

filmmaking virtuosity and then goes around again with the same kind of material; after a while you’re looking at your watch and wondering how far into the three-hour running time you have made it and discovering that there are still a couple of hours to go. DiCaprio delivers phenomenal energy and talent as the rascally Belfort, but it’s hard to understand what possessed him to take on two roles within one year where he plays a shady Long Island millionaire who throws lavish parties. For the first half of the movie, when things begin to flag, they are picked up by the introduction of new characters, like Azoff and his cohorts; McConaughey’s Hanna; Jordan’s dad, Max (Rob Reiner); his Barbie-doll-sexy second wife Naomi (Margot Robbie); a sleazy Swiss banker (The Artist’s Jean Dujardin); and finally Patrick Denham (Kyle Chandler), the charmingly tenacious FBI agent who ultimately got the goods on Belfort. But after a while there is no one left on the bench, and this is where Scorsese has to work harder. There’s a storm at sea and an extended Quaalude scene that you may hear described as hilarious but that plays in excruciating slow motion if it doesn’t catch your fancy. There are numerous profanitylaced locker-room-style pep talks. A late scene showing Belfort as a quasi-saintly figure loved by his employees is a little tough to take. And of course there’s plenty of sex to distract the most jaded viewers. A friend of mine described it as “some of the classiest pornography I’ve ever witnessed,” a critique that may belong in the plus column or may just be a reflection of his experiences with the genre. If you miss any of the early scenes, don’t worry. It will all be around again. Belfort has served his time and paid the government a small portion of what he owes. Now he travels around giving expensive motivational seminars on how to get rich quick. And he should do pretty well off this movie. It’s a cautionary tale. ◀

Notes worthy: Enzo Avitabile

Let the music play Bill Kohlhaase I The New Mexican Enzo Avitabile: Music Life, documentary, not rated, in English and Italian with subtitles, The Screen, 2.5 chiles Director Jonathan Demme’s earlier musical documentaries are all about performance. His celebrated 1984 Talking Heads film Stop Making Sense captures staging as well as sound. He’s done a trio of performance documentaries for Neil Young, made video documentaries on The Pretenders and Kenny Chesney, and directed videos for Bruce Springsteen. This film, about an Italian multi-instrumentalist and lyricist, is different. Demme’s usual focus on the music is widened to include equal time devoted to the man who makes it. Enzo Avitabile is completely obsessed with music and appears to be a worthy subject. But while he’s good at declaring this obsession, he’s not so good at explaining it. Never mind that Avitabile is virtually unknown in America. He’s recognized in Italy, a point made by the people peering through apartment windows and pausing on the street as he passes by. He’s seen working with a stellar array of world music figures — from Eliades Ochoa to Daby Touré — and displays audible passion for and knowledge about his and everyone else’s music. But he talks about his own craft like a salesman with a product. He takes us to his current apartment, the place where he composes, and tells us “this is where I keep the secret of my life” and “I got caught in the river of music.” He follows that with a line about how he fell in love with his computer software. He runs through a litany of associations and accomplishments and shows off a series of pictures with James Brown, Cesária Évoria, Randy Crawford, and Afrika Bambaataa. Whether the photos represent a true musical association or just a backstage snapshot isn’t explained. There’s little of his background revealed, even as we accompany him to the neighborhood in Naples where he was raised. A scene in his boyhood bedroom where he delivers a lecture on jazz history and his own ascent to the conservatory is just too self-conscious. The best parts of the film, the parts that make it worth seeing, are about performance, the coming together of musicians, and the making of music. His teaming with Cuban guitarist Ochoa, Palestinian vocalist Amal Murkus, and the Orchestra Sinfonica e Coro Nova Amadeus show his ear for Latin, Middle Eastern, and North African influences as well as European folk and classical traditions. Avitabile’s lyrics are pointed and delivered passionately and are often about social and political issues. Especially entrancing is a quintet with percussion, sitar, guitar, and lute. What Avitabile does in that number tells more about him than anything he might say. ◀ 50

opening this week ENZO AVITABILE: MUSIC LIFE Jonathan Demme’s latest music documentary wastes a fair amount of time trying to develop multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Avitabile as a personality, without much success. But Demme continues to be the master at capturing performance. Avitabile joins forces with Latin, Middle Eastern, Indian, African, and European musicians to create rhythmically attractive, globally integrative music, often with strong social and political messages. The songs, often framed in the fascinating architecture of Southern Italy, are emotional, entrancing, and engaging. The parts between the music? Not so much. Not rated. 79 minutes. In English and Italian with subtitles. The Screen, Santa Fe. (Bill Kohlhaase) See review, Page 50.

now in theaters ALL IS LOST A man (Robert Redford) is stranded on a crippled vessel somewhere in the Indian Ocean in this often-enthralling drama from writer and director J.C. Chandor (Margin Call). All Is Lost is basically Robert Redford against the sea, and it relies on good old-fashioned storytelling to keep you involved. It’s a gutsy project that trusts its audience to trust it back, but be warned: the final third of the film gets a bit repetitious — in a most soggy manner. Rated PG-13. 106 minutes. The Screen, Santa Fe. (Robert Nott) AMERICAN HUSTLE Irving Rosenfeld (Christian Bale) and Sydney Prosser (Amy Adams) bond over Duke Ellington at a party. This is appropriate, because David O. Russell has orchestrated his wild and wonderful riff on the 1978 Abscam sting operation like an Ellington suite. The film is an extended cinematic jazz compo-


sition, weaving themes and rhythms, tight ensemble work and electrifying solos, and building to a footstomping climax. Irving and Sydney are con artists who get ensnared into working with an unscrupulous FBI agent (Bradley Cooper). The performances are terrific, including Jennifer Lawrence as Irving’s sexy, cagey, dumb-smart wife. Rated R. 138 minutes. Regal Stadium 14, Santa Fe; DreamCatcher, Española. ( Jonathan Richards) ANCHORMAN 2: THE LEGEND CONTINUES This sequel to the muchloved 2004 comedy finds the Channel 4 news team (Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Steve Carell, David Koechner, and Christina Applegate) headed to cable news and the 1980s. It avoids the trap that sinks many comedy sequels by not getting too plot-heavy and not simply repeating the best bits of the first film. Some commentary about modern news networks slows the pace, but the crew’s Monty Python-esque approach to delivering humor in offbeat, unexpected ways carries the day, and a shark named Doby nearly steals the show. Don’t act like you’re not impressed. Rated PG-13. 119 minutes. Regal Stadium 14, Santa Fe. (Robert Ker) BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR Abdellatif Kechiche’s emotionally rich drama tells the story of Adèle (Adèle Exarchopoulos), a high school student whose burgeoning sexuality leads her on a journey of self-discovery after she meets Emma (Léa Seydoux), a lesbian whose openness brings Adèle out of her shell. Raw passion ignites the screen, and despite its graphic sex scenes, Blue Is the Warmest Color never strays into gimmicks or sentimentality. It’s as honest a film as you are likely to see this year. Rated NC-17. 179 minutes. In French with subtitles. Center for Contemporary Arts, Santa Fe. (Michael Abatemarco) THE BOOK THIEF In the last 10 years, few novels were as beloved or heralded as Markus Zusak’s 2005 young-adult book about a girl in Nazi Germany who helps her foster parents hide a young Jewish man. The film version stars Sophie Nélisse as the girl and Geoffrey Rush and Emily Watson as the parents. Rated PG-13. 131 minutes. Regal DeVargas, Santa Fe. (Not reviewed) ENOUGH SAID Fans of Woody Allen’s rom-coms for adult audiences should embrace this charmer about two divorced empty-nesters ( Julia Louis-Dreyfus and, in his final performance, James Gandolfini) who fall for each other and then find that middle-age

relationships come fraught with baggage and defense mechanisms. Louis-Dreyfus shows more depth and Gandolfini more softness than either one’s iconic TV roles would suggest; the two head a terrific cast. Nicole Holofcener directs them all with a generous spirit. Rated PG-13. 93 minutes. Regal DeVargas, Santa Fe. (Robert Ker) FOLLOWING THE NINTH: IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF BEETHOVEN’S FINAL SYMPHONY Karry Candaele’s film takes viewers around the world in pursuit of finding out what makes Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony so universally loved. Not rated. 90 minutes. Center for Contemporary Arts, Santa Fe. (Not reviewed) 47 RONIN In this Eastern-styled action movie, Keanu Reeves plays a half-Japanese man who was once booted from his samurai clan due to his heritage. But when the clan is broken up by deadly warlords, shapeshifters, and general villainy, it comes crawling back to Keanu. Rated PG-13. 127 minutes. Regal Stadium 14, Santa Fe; DreamCatcher, Española. (Not reviewed) FROZEN Disney’s latest animated fable is a strange one: it is a tale of misunderstanding with a complicated setup but no real villain or central conflict. Two princess sisters in a fantasy kingdom are split apart when one is revealed to have magical powers to summon cold, snow, and ice. With the help of a big lug (Jonathan Groff), the younger woman (Kristen Bell) must pull her older sis out of her wintery withdrawal from society. The film is a breeze, despite the awkward first act and uneven songs. Rated PG. 108 minutes. Screens in 2-D only at Regal Stadium 14, Santa Fe; DreamCatcher, Española. (Robert Ker) THE GIRLS IN THE BAND Director Judy Chaikin gives an overdue ovation to female jazz instrumentalists past and present in this touching music doc, which offers the perfect blend of sometimes grainy, sometimes vivid archival footage and thoughtful interviews. From the vaudeville performers of the 1920s and ’30s and pioneering all-female big bands like The International Sweethearts of Rhythm all the way up to the most sensational players of today, the film makes the case that these women may be female jazz musicians, but they are first and foremost jazz musicians. Not rated. 87 minutes. The Screen, Santa Fe. (Loren Bienvenu)

THE GREAT BEAUTY Paolo Sorrentino’s (Il Divo) breathtaking excursion through Roman high life is a sad, funny, sexy, heartbreaking, and exquisite look at a society dancing as fast as it can to keep up with a past that can’t be caught or even quite remembered. Our guide through this funhouse labyrinth of beauty, debauchery, pretension, and yearning is Jep Gambardella (Toni Servillo), an aging writer and bon vivant who made a literary splash with a slim novel 40 years ago and hasn’t been able to think of anything worth writing about since. La Grande Bellezza is a conscious and masterful updating of Fellini. Not rated. 142 minutes. In Italian with subtitles. Center for Contemporary Arts, Santa Fe. ( Jonathan Richards) GRUDGE MATCH Sylvester Stallone and Robert De Niro rose to fame playing iconic boxers. That was more than 30 years ago. Now the two men play ex-boxers who hate each other’s guts but agree to get back in the ring for a payday and — for one of them — payback. Alan Arkin and Kevin Hart costar in this comedy. Rated PG-13. 114 minutes. Regal Stadium 14, Santa Fe; DreamCatcher, Española. (Not reviewed) THE HOBBIT: DESOLATION OF SMAUG As if in reaction to criticism that The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey was too slow, director Peter Jackson keeps the action pumping at a brisk pace in this sequel. Given that the film is nearly three hours long, it can get exhausting. It also feels shorter than many 90-minute films, thanks to the exquisite attention to detail that is standard with the Lord of the Rings series. The story almost entirely abandons the source material and is the usual “quest to vanquish evil and preserve peace” plot. The results boast swashbuckling action, operatic drama, psychedelic sequences, and a jim-dandy of a dragon (voiced by Benedict Cumberbatch). Rated PG-13. 160 minutes. Screens in 3-D and 2-D at Regal Stadium 14, Santa Fe. Screens in 2-D only at DreamCatcher, Española. (Robert Ker) THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE This is a rare case of a movie that’s just as good as the book on which it’s based. Defiant Katniss ( Jennifer Lawrence) has unwittingly inspired unrest in Panem, a dystopian nation where a totalitarian government punishes its citizens for their rebellion by forcing children to compete in an annual televised battle to the death.

dampen Katniss’ fire, sinister President Snow (Donald Sutherland) and a new Head Gamemaker (Philip Seymour Hoffman) force her back into the arena.

PASATIEMPO I January 3-9, 2014

lighthearted, odd-couple comedy — and there are laughs — but the material runs much deeper and darker than that. Before director Stephen Frears (The Queen) is done taking us on all of his unpredictable and often-rewarding turns, we’ve pondered aging, forgiveness, the existence of God, and how different perspectives paint a distorted picture of one’s life. Rated PG-13. 98 minutes. Regal DeVargas, Santa Fe. (Robert Ker) SAVING MR. BANKS Fans of Mary Poppins (the film and the book series) will probably find this biopic depicting the often contentious struggle between Walt Disney and author P.L. Travers fascinating, if disturbing. But as the film moves back and forth between the harsh reality of Travers’ childhood in the Australian outback and the fairy-tale environment of Disney’s studio, the screenplay’s arc just isn’t strong enough to carry the two tales. Still, Emma Thompson gives a beautiful turn as the strong-willed Travers, while Tom Hanks is all easygoing charm as Disney. Rated PG-13. 125 minutes. Regal Stadium 14, Santa Fe. (Robert Nott) THE SECRET LIFE OF WALTER MITTY James Thurber’s 1939 short story about an unimportant man who daydreams big was once a staple of middle-school English class. Now, Walter’s dreams are even bigger in this CGI-crazy blockbuster starring Ben Stiller in the title role (and in the director’s chair). Kristen Wiig, Shirley MacLaine, and Sean Penn co-star. Rated PG. 114 minutes. Regal Stadium 14, Santa Fe; DreamCatcher, Española. (Not reviewed) SPINNING PLATES It’s rare that foodie documentaries explore restaurants with fewer than four stars, but this film balances one such fancy-pants establishment in Chicago with a down-home eatery in Iowa and an upstart Mexican joint in Arizona to show how the mind-set of restaurateurs is the same regardless of circumstances. Well presented but ultimately repetitive, Spinning Plates is comfort food — it goes down easy and fills you up, while conforming to expectations rather than defying them. Not rated. 93 minutes. Jean Cocteau Cinema, Santa Fe. (Robert Ker) 12 YEARS A SLAVE Director Steve McQueen takes us into America’s slave trade with the same clinical observation and exquisite composition that he used in his previous features, Hunger and Shame. Alas, he tarnishes his adaptation of Solomon Northup’s 1853 autobiography — about

the free-born man’s stint as a slave after being captured and shipped south — with too many movie moments, blunting the impact and putting his intentions into question. There’s fine acting all around. Rated R. 133 minutes. Regal DeVargas, Santa Fe. (Robert Ker) TYLER PERRY’S A MADEA CHRISTMAS What would Christmas be without a new Tyler Perry’s Madea movie? Fortunately, we’ll never have to find out, because there is seemingly a new one every year. Here, Madea (Tyler Perry) takes guff from nobody once more — this time, at Christmas. Rated PG-13. 105 minutes. Regal Stadium 14, Santa Fe; DreamCatcher, Española. (Not reviewed) WALKING WITH DINOSAURS This film, based on the BBC documentary series of the same name, attempts to use animation to present dinosaur life to us in the way that a Disneynature documentary might educate us on chimpanzees — by following a young creature through life and telling its story, although the dinos here are voiced by actors (including John Leguizamo and Justin Long). Rated PG. 87 minutes. Screens in 2-D only at Regal Stadium 14, Santa Fe; DreamCatcher, Española. (Not reviewed) THE WOLF OF WALL STREET Martin Scorsese’s celebration of chicanery and gluttony in the world of finance is based on the true story of Jordan Belfort (Leonardo DiCaprio), who fleeced his way to the top selling penny stocks and then did time in a federal prison for fraud. He was a forerunner of the Wall Street crooks who took down the economy in ’08. Scorsese has turned his story into a dazzling but repetitious movie that halfheartedly masquerades as a cautionary tale laced with dwarf-tossing contests, exotic cars, yachts, helicopters, and acres of naked women who serve, among other things, as surfaces off of which to snort cocaine. And lots of money. Rated R. 179 minutes. Regal Stadium 14, Santa Fe. ( Jonathan Richards) See review, Page 48.

The Short Order Joseph Wrede has had a dedicated following since he was cooking in Taos, and every night I’ve visited Joseph’s of Santa Fe, his new restaurant on the corner of Agua Fria and Market streets, the tiny, tastefully decorated dining room has been packed to the hilt with enthusiastic diners. There’s good reason. Service is quick, friendly, and utterly, consistently professional. Overall, the menu is thoughtful and creative, and some dishes soar, but when one fails, mostly due to poor execution, it’s all the more disappointing. Recommended: rock shrimp on crispy phyllo, lamb burger, “bronzed” crusted cauliflower, rabbit lasagna, lamb tagine, butterscotch pudding, and chocolate gelato.

Ratings range from 0 to 4 chiles, including half chiles. This reflects the reviewer’s experience with regard to food and drink, atmosphere, service, and value.

PASATIEMPO I January 3-9, 2014

Reviewing a restaurant run by chef Joseph Wrede is a little like writing about a Twilight movie. I can go into detail about what succeeds and what fails. But Wrede has had a dedicated following since he was helming kitchens in Taos, and every night I’ve visited his new restaurant on the corner of Agua Fria and Market streets, the tiny, tastefully decorated dining room has been packed to the hilt with enthusiastic diners. Nothing I say is going to change anyone’s mind. Don’t get me wrong. Much of what comes out of the kitchen here is quite good — and far better than any popular teen vampire franchise, though there’s plenty you’ll want to sink your teeth into. Service is quick, friendly, and utterly, consistently professional. Overall, the menu is thoughtful and creative. Some dishes soar, but when one fails — mostly because of poor execution — it’s all the more disappointing. The red chile posole, with its plentiful nuggets of elk meat, potato, and carrot, looked more like stew than traditional posole. I had to stir things around to find any actual posole kernels, but the rich broth packed an unmistakable red chile punch with just the right amount of heat. Plump rock shrimp in silken sherry beurre blanc get crisp contrast from a platform of golden phyllo. Nose-totail eaters will enjoy grilled polenta with salty prosciutto and pleasantly fatty chicken-liver mousse. The addition of a luscious poached egg makes the velvet-textured garlic soup even more voluptuous. With its tender fresh pasta and the bold, deep flavors of a sturdy ragù, the rabbit lasagna will bowl you over. Joseph’s impressed me with the number of vegetableheavy entrees, which often get short shrift in fine-dining establishments. A saucy stacked-style enchilada had a distinctly autumnal flavor profile thanks to pumpkin and local porcinis, but the overly constructed tower began to slip and slide apart the minute I cut into it, and even with hints of Indian spices, it was surprisingly bland. Demonstrating both creative thinking and fine execution is the cauliflower entree. The cruciferous florets are slathered in mildly tangy crème fraiche and mustard seeds and then “bronzed” in cast iron. The result is a slightly crunchy steaklike slab thoughtfully rounded out with well-seasoned white beans and a piquant anchovy-tomato sauce. The duck confit entree is an impressive plate — half a duck served with intriguing jewel-like cranberry chutney, earthy green lentils, and a green chile succotash. The menu describes it as “crispy,” and on our visit, that was an understatement. Beneath its crunchy golden skin, the meat was shockingly overcooked — even the dark portions were remarkably, almost inedibly dry. Joseph is famous for his duck-fat French fries. Both times we ordered them, some were perfectly golden but limp, while others were solidly crunchy and a deep russet color. Overall, they were greasy and underseasoned, though the zesty housemade ketchup perked them up a bit. The grilled pizza offers an exciting combination of savory sausage, fruity-sweet grapes, and tangy Gorgonzola. While the crust of any wood-fired or grilled pizza should sport the occasional charred spot, the entire outer edge of ours was charcoal black and burnt.

Joseph’s is spinning itself as a “culinary pub.” Supplementing the well-curated wine list is a selection of fine beers on tap, including a stout, a wheat beer, New Mexico’s Marble IPA, Durango’s smoky-bitter dark lager, and Austria’s light but hop-forward golden Stiegl pilsner. While some of the food is of the sort you’d find in an urban gastropub, this is far from a neighborhood pub in the truest sense. It’s hard to imagine locals walking down the street after work for a $14 burger, $9 fries, or a $42 steak. Made with New Mexico lamb, topped with cheese and green chile, and served on a surprisingly tender English muffin, the rather small burger is juicy and full of minerally sweet meat flavor (and worth the occasional splurge to know you’re supporting a local farm). We ate the lovely butter lettuce and spinach side salad first so it wouldn’t wilt on the too-hot-totouch plate. Beneath its soft, undercooked beige batter, the jalapeño “popper” had an eye-popping spiciness. Desserts are a mixed bag. The apple tartine — actually more like a slice of traditional apple pie — had that perfect balance of tart and sweet and just a pinch of heartwarming spice, but the fruit was in large, unwieldy chunks. The “bistro” cake was warm and chocolaty but mostly forgettable. On the other hand, dinner-table warfare nearly broke out over the wildly addictive butterscotch pudding, sweet but with a hit of mouthwatering salt. The mild milky chocolate flavor of the house-made gelato won’t overwhelm you; what might is the stuff’s otherworldly airiness and mind-blowing creaminess. I don’t live down the street from Joseph’s, but I would walk miles for more of that. ◀
